As Metal Mario, Mario is invulnerable, but also extremely heavy. As such, Metal Mario can easily defeat enemies by running into them, can withstand heavy winds, becomes immune to poison clouds, and can walk underwater; however, since he is extremely heavy, he cannot jump higher or farther, he cannot swim, and he sinks in quicksand faster. | As Metal Mario, Mario is invulnerable, but also extremely heavy.

Metal Mario doesn't sprint and rarely jumps; he simply walks from place to place at a steady pace. He also rarely uses his [[Fireball]] attack, even though a normal CPU Mario uses it often, and {{SSB|Kirby}} will not gain a [[copy ability]] from [[inhale (Kirby)|inhaling]] him. On lower difficulties, he mainly walks around the stage and hardly attacks, but becomes more powerful on higher difficulties. | Metal Mario doesn't sprint and rarely jumps; he simply walks from place to place at a steady pace.

Metal Mario can be controlled | Metal Mario can be controlled using certain cheat codes such as the [[debug menu]]; however, many players consider him to be far worse than normal Mario. Despite his aforementioned strengths and knockback resistance, he is less resistant to it than his 1P Game counterpart. He also has reduced [[combo]] potential, as he cannot efficiently follow up with combos after attacking due to an abysmal short hop, and has awkward aerial and dashing physics. As previously mentioned, he also has an extremely quick falling speed, which not only hinders his [[recovery]], but makes him very vulnerable to [[chaingrab]]s and certain combos. | ||

:''Mario was in for a surprise the first time he hit a Metal Box in Super Mario 64. The metal cap that popped out transformed Mario into living metal, giving him great stamina, a heavy tread, and the ability to walk underwater. In Super Smash Bros., Metal Mario showed up as an incredibly stubborn midlevel boss.'' | |||
