'''Master Hand''' (known internally as '''MASTERH''') is a [[boss]] appearing in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', reprising his role as a boss in the single-player mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' He is the final boss of the 1-player {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}, and has a set HP which must be depleted to win; he does not appear in the Adventure Mode or All-Star Mode, where his role is replaced instead by [[Giga Bowser]] and a team of {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}es. He is fought on the ''Melee'' version of {{SSBM|Final Destination}}. Defeating Master Hand once again causes the screen to fade to white as he explodes into the background; after the last results screen, the player's character is seen tumbling, then turning into their [[Trophy]] state, landing in the [[Collection]] room of the game. Master Hand can be played via use of the [[Master Hand glitch]].

''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' sees Master Hand reprising his role as a boss in the single-player mode - he is the final boss of the 1-player [[Classic Mode]], and has a set HP which must be depleted to win; he does not appear in the Adventure Mode or All-Star Mode, where his role is replaced instead by [[Giga Bowser]] and a team of [[Mr. Game & Watch]]es. He is fought on the ''Melee'' version of {{SSBM|Final Destination}}. Defeating Master Hand once again causes the screen to fade to white as he explodes into the background; after the last results screen, the player's character is seen tumbling, then turning into their [[Trophy]] state, landing in the [[Collection]] room of the game.
Master Hand received a multitude of alterations to his overall fighting style when moving on to ''Melee''. His moveset is slightly altered and expanded, he loses the ability to turn around, and his HP is altered based on the [[difficulty]]. In addition to this increase in HP, his power increases with each increment in difficulty, with the highest levels giving him a multitude of attacks with [[OHKO]] potential. Additionally, instead of appearing as a glove with a "cuff", Master Hand's "wrist" fades into nothingness.

The game also introduced {{SSBM|Crazy Hand}}, Master Hand's left-handed partner. If the player reduces Master Hand's HP by half, Crazy Hand appears then starts with the same number of HP (matching the difficulty) to whatever Master Hand started with from the beginning. When the two are on the field at the same time, they can perform powerful combination attacks. Crazy Hand appears when set conditions are met.

Master Hand does not appear in the opening cinematic, though his trophy (see below) elaborates his role in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' universe.

==Changes from ''SSB'' to ''Melee''==
[[File:Master Hand Melee Trophy.png|135x235px|thumb|The Master Hand trophy in ''Melee'']]
*{{Change|Lost his ability to turn around.}}
===Trophy===
*{{Nerf|Master Hand's movement is now entirely dependent on the attack he's using and the player's position; he always returns to his starting position when not attacking. This means he cannot be moved freely when controlled via glitching or hacking.}}
{{See also|List of SSBM trophies (Super Smash Bros. series)}}
*{{Nerf|No longer has the Slam move, where he turns into a fist and flies towards the player across the stage (not to be confused with Ram).}}
;Master Hand
*{{Buff|Has the Lasers, Ground Hit, and Grab attacks added to his moveset.}}
:''The Master Hand awaits anyone who survives the long difficult road to the Final Destination. This symbolic link between the real world and the imaginary battlefields of Super Smash Bros. Melee is quite a handful in battle, and just because he wears a white glove doesn't mean he fights clean. Get ready to get flicked, swatted, punched, and poked like crazy!''
*{{Change|His HP is now dependent on [[difficulty]], instead of having 300 HP regardless of difficulty.}}
:*''Super Smash Bros.''
*{{Buff|Pokes three times instead of twice.}}
*{{Change|The Jetstream attack has been altered to look less like an obscene gesture.}}

==Moveset==
Note that none of the names are official and are followed by the name used in the game's files. Master Hand can only be played by using the {{SSBM|debug menu}} through an [[Action Replay]], or the use of the [[Master Hand glitch]]. All directions are pressed on the [[D-Pad]], not the [[Control Stick]]. Lastly, Master Hand can only be controlled by Player 3.

===In combination with Crazy Hand===
The damage recorded here is only for Master Hand's contribution to the attack. For Crazy Hand's contribution, see [[Crazy Hand (SSBM)]].
 
In terms of debug mode inputs, Crazy Hand must go first. Then, Master Hand must finish what he's doing and input Y↑. Not doing so will leave Crazy Hand stuck in the "waiting for Master Hand" phase until either of them is KO'd. If Crazy Hand inputs Y←, Master Hand will ignore it (the corresponding attack is disabled), which will guarantee this.
