Master Hand reprises his role as the final boss of {{SSBB|Classic Mode}} in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', and once again is fought on {{SSBB|Final Destination}}. His attacks are very similar to that of his ''Melee'' form with some changes. The amount of HP he has is still dependent on the difficulty as well. Crazy Hand also returns in Classic Mode, if certain conditions are met.

==Role in [[The Subspace Emissary]]==
[[File:MasterHandBrawl.png|thumb|left|Master Hand in The Subspace Emissary.]]
Master Hand also appears in [[The Subspace Emissary]], as the one giving orders to {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}, {{SSBB|Bowser}} and {{SSBB|Wario}}. Soon after a [[Subspace Bomb]] is used on {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s castle, Ganondorf receives new orders from Master Hand via a video screen.

[[File:MH dead.jpg|thumb|Master Hand released from his bonds.]]
However, when all of the characters [[Entrance to Subspace|arrive in Subspace]], Ganondorf reports to Master Hand after betraying Bowser. When Master Hand reveals himself, however, Ganondorf sees that he has actually been under the control of a powerful being called [[Tabuu]]. Tabuu had enslaved Master Hand using chains of light knowing that he could control and use him for recruiting fighters to aid him in his goals.
[[File:CoLight.jpg|thumb|Tabuu using chains of light on Master Hand]]
Ganondorf defiantly attempts to attack Tabuu but is easily knocked back, though his fall breaks the chains of light that Tabuu used to control Master Hand with, thus freeing him. Master Hand subsequently falls into the ground, bleeding from where he was enchained. Master Hand too attempts to strike Tabuu but is beaten with little effort, collapsing once again into the ground and lying motionless in defeat.

{{EnemyResistances}}

Like all bosses in ''Brawl'', Master Hand gains an additional ×0.6 damage resistance modifier when fought in co-op mode, effectively gaining 67% more health. This modifier is applied whenever the second player is in-game.

==Moveset==
[[File:Master Hand Lasers.jpg|thumb|200px|Master Hand using Laser Nail against {{SSBB|Mario}}.|left]]
Like all other enemies in the game, Master Hand's damage output is based on a value unique to the stage and the chosen difficulty level. This value (known to range from 0.0 to 11.0) is given as "d" in the following tables. Unlike the previous games Master Hand is not playable, just controllable, and some moves cannot be used as some will [[Game crash|freeze the game]], however the public codes disable these moves. The reason why he is not playable is because all [[boss]]es in ''Brawl'' are in a class completely separate from the playable characters, just like how [[Sandbag]] is now considered an item instead of a character like in ''[[Melee]]''. The start button self-destructs any boss.

===Individual===
When an attack hits, the difficulty is multiplied by the difficulty multiplier, and is then added to the base damage.

==Changes from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl''==
*{{Change|Master Hand's [[idle pose]] now moves accordingly to the difficulty, being nearly as erratic as {{SSBB|Crazy Hand}}'s.}}
*{{Buff|Many of his attacks are faster, deal more damage, and are more difficult to dodge. Finger Walk and Big Swipe have almost instantaneous start-up.}}
*{{Buff|Finger Drill is more difficult to dodge: it can only be dodged if a player perfectly executes a roll, or leaves the stage until the attack finishes. Even then, many characters' rolls are too short to escape his vacuum, and going off the stage can make it hard to come back, as the attack has hitboxes that prevents the player from grabbing the ledge.}}
*{{Change|After using Jetstream, Master Hand returns to his normal position on the right side of the stage, instead of appearing on the left and traveling back to the right side. Jetstream can no longer meteor smash during the start up.}}
*{{Change|During the start of Master and Crazy Hands' Applause attack, characters are hit by the [[Fan]] effect while in the air.}}
*{{change|Flying Punch now deals horizontal knockback and can no longer meteor smash, removing its OHKO potential. However, it is much more effective at KOing onstage opponents due to dealing more knockback.}}
*{{Change|Laser Nail moves forth and back once.}}
*{{Buff|Finger Bullet cannot be avoided by [[crouching]].}}
*{{Buff|Finger Walk begins almost instantaneously and has more power, allowing Master Hand to suddenly hit, and potentially KO, nearby players.}}
*{{Buff|Big Swipe is faster, stronger, and covers a larger area.}}
*{{Change|First throw now has horizontal knockback instead of upward knockback.}}
*{{Buff|Relative to the average knockback of their moves, Master Hand is now more powerful than Crazy Hand.}}

==Trophy==

The meaning of his existence is unknown, as are his goals, but he seems to have obtained (and kept hidden) a power that borders on absolute. He also seems to feel a certain joy in challenging chosen warriors who've claimed many victories. He waits even now in Final Destination.
