Meta Knight is currently ranked 1st out of 41 on the current [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]], placing him in the S tier. This is the same as his placement in ''Brawl'', where he was notably ranked 1st out of 38, albeit not in a dominating fashion like his ''Brawl'' counterpart | Meta Knight is currently ranked 1st out of 41 on the current [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]], placing him in the S tier.

Despite these nerfs, Meta Knight has received some buffs that continue make him a threat to the rest of the cast (albeit to a lesser extent). His already impressive ground speed was increased further and his previously awful air speed has been greatly increased. Many of Meta Knight's moves have increased KO power such as his forward smash, down aerial and back aerial (which now only consists of a single hit making it more reliable). Some of his attacks also have decreased ending lag and the reintroduction of [[L-canceling]] makes his aerials safer than ever on shield. | Despite these nerfs, Meta Knight has received some buffs that continue make him a threat to the rest of the cast (albeit to a lesser extent).

Overall despite his sizeable nerfs, Meta Knight remains one of the most dominant characters and he was even ranked 1st on the latest ''Project M'' tier list. Despite this, he is nowhere near as dominant as in ''Brawl'' with the rest of the cast having a better chance facing off against him and his strong tournament results/representation are | Overall despite his sizeable nerfs, Meta Knight remains one of the most dominant characters and he was even ranked 1st on the latest ''Project M'' tier list.

Meta Knight has gained two new costumes. One is based off of his evil Mirror World counterpart, [[wikirby:Dark Meta Knight|Dark Meta Knight]], from ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby and the Amazing Mirror}}''. The other is based off of concept art for the canceled [[wikirby:Kirby (Nintendo GameCube)|GameCube ''Kirby'' game]], included in the collectible book that came with ''[[wikirby:Kirby's Dream Collection|Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition]]'', which had a more stylized mask and armour, and resembled a butterfly. This design would later be used for {{s|wikirby|Morpho Knight}} in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Star Allies}}''. | |||
