The '''Mii Swordfighter''' ({{ja|Mii剣術タイプ|Mii Kenjutsu Taipu}}, ''Mii Fencing Type'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. They were confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018, along with the other {{SSBU|Mii Fighter}} types, [[Mii Brawler (SSBU)|Brawler]] and [[Mii Gunner (SSBU)|Gunner]]. Mii Swordfighter is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #52]].

As with the other Mii Fighters, they have 12 voice options, provided by Yūji Kishi, Takashi Ōhara, Ryōtarō Okiayu, Michihiko Hagi, Hideo Ishikawa, Kiyoyuki Yanada, Umeka Shōji, Ayumi Fujimura, Makiko Ōmoto, Minami Takayama, and Kimiko Saitō.

==Attributes==

Mii Swordfighter has had their physical attributes reworked to all be relatively average. No longer determinant on the weight given to whatever Mii they're based on, the Mii Swordfighter is now an average-height, semi-heavyweight fighter, being heavy as {{SSBU|Cloud}}. Their walk and running speed are fairly average, however they have a relatively high air speed and bear the distinction of being the only Mii Fighter who cannot wall jump. Being a Mii Fighter, the Mii Swordfighter's special moves are determinant on the player's choice, as each special move slot can hold one of three available moves. They possess a total of 12 special moves: [[Gale Strike]], [[Shuriken of Light]], and [[Blurring Blade]] (Neutral Special), [[Airborne Assault]], [[Gale Stab]], and [[Chakram]] (Side Special), [[Stone Scabbard]], [[Skyward Slash Dash]], and [[Hero's Spin]] (Up Special), and [[Blade Counter]], [[Reversal Slash]], and [[Power Thrust]] (Down Special).

One of the greatest strengths of the Mii Swordfighter is their extremely versatile and flexible set of specials, some of which are among the strongest moves in the game. Gale Strike and Chakram are fantastic projectiles which excel at distancing opponents, racking up damage, and edgeguarding. Gale Strike is among the Mii Swordfighter's best moves; while slow for a projectile, it does good damage, is an excellent tool to setup kill confirms due to its large hitbox and fixed knockback, and is very potent at ledgetrapping. Landing a Gale Strike allows the Mii Swordfighter to confirm into a multitude of moves such as back aerial, forward aerial, up aerial, Hero's Spin, and Chakram. Hero's Spin in particular is an extremely potent kill option, being able to take stocks as low as around 40% when confirming out of a Gale Strike at the ledge. Chakram is another potent projectile that is good for both initiating and deterring approaches. The smash input version is good for edgeguarding opponents with especially poor recoveries (i.e. Belmonts and Cloud) and the tilt input version allows the Mii Swordfighter to pressure the ledge and confirm into many different moves, providing them with two tools that establish a good defense-oriented playstyle. Along with being one of the few swordfighters that have access to projectiles, the Mii Swordfighter is also the only one that possesses a reflector in the form of Reversal Slash, which allows them to counter campy, projectile-heavy opponents as well. Additionally, Blade Counter, like other counters, can effectively edgeguard those who possess poor recoveries, though it isn't as effective for KO'ing near the side blast lines due to its' extensive vertical knockback. However, this does provide it with consistent KO potential.

Outside of their strong projectiles, the Mii Swordfighter possesses a slew of fast and powerful normals. Back and up aerial are both very fast and powerful, the former of which is a strong tool to use for spacing and the latter for anti-airs and racking damage. Forward and neutral aerial both serve as average spacing tools, with forward air's multihits giving Mii Swordfighter several confirms on grounded opponents. Additionally, almost all of the Swordfighter's aerials can easily be comboed into from their down throw, giving the character extremely reliable damage from grabs. This, along with low aerial landing lag (with the exception of down aerial at 18 frames) results in the Mii Swordfighter having an above average aerial game due to most of their aerials being potential combo starters, while their down aerial, despite having weak set knockback, is great for gimping opponents with subpar recoveries alongside neutral and back aerial.  The Mii Swordfighter's tilts, with the exception of forward tilt, are quite fast and are pretty reliable sources of damage and combo potential. Swordfighter's jab combo is relatively strong and launches at a very low angle, making it exceptional at setting up edgeguards and gimps. Their up tilt is generally used for juggling and starting combos at medium percentages, while their down tilt and forward tilt and forward tilt are more geared towards spacing and poking.

Alongside their potent aerials and tilts are a set of powerful smash attacks and specials. While forward and up smash are both relatively laggy, they both boast a considerable amount of KO power and the same can be said for Blurring Blade and Power Thrust, the former which can KO at extremely low percents when fully charged at the edge of Final Destination.

Additionally, the Mii Swordfighter arguably has the best recovery options out of the three Mii Fighters. As in ''[[SSB4]]'', Airborne Assault and Gale Stab both boast an incredible amount of horizontal distance while Stone Scabbard provides a high vertical distance. Skyward Slash Dash is a move similar to that of [[Fire Fox]], allowing the Mii Swordfighter to have both increased distance and a trajectory that can mix up edgeguarding opponents.

However, in spite of the variety of strengths that the Mii Swordfighter has, they are not without their weaknesses. For a swordfighter, they have one of (if not the worst) disjoints in the game. Many of their swift normals simply have a lack of range in comparison to other swordfighters such as Lucina and Ike. Additionally, as mentioned before, their mobility is also very lackluster compared to other disjoint users given their average dashing/walking and air acceleration speeds, which makes it difficult for them to keep up with faster, rushdown-based characters (i.e. Sonic). While many of their specials have some form of use, there are a few that provide utility that's considered to be overshadowed compared to other specials.

Furthermore, while many of the Mii Swordfighter's normals are good, their smash attacks are all very laggy and have generally poor reach, especially their up smash, which does not have a vacuum effect like that of Link, Samus, or the Mii Gunner while their good normals begin to lose their utility at higher percentages. Down tilt loses its' combo ability at mid percentages and up tilt is a fairly sluggish move against faster opponents. Additionally, their grab game is subpar, though not to the same extent as {{SSBU|Cloud}}. Aside from down throw,  the Mii Swordfighter's throws offer mediocre utility, especially their up throw, which deals extremely low knockback and damage and has no true follow ups. Their throws also have mediocre KO power, with their strongest throw being back throw (which doesn't KO at around 180% at the edge of Final Destination). While Gale Strike and Chakram are still very good projectiles, their start and end lag are both substantial in comparison to other projectiles, making them unsafe to use up close, further exacerbating their struggle against faster characters and giving them a rather poor neutral. Lastly, while their recovery can be very flexible, some of them either offer poor distance or are quite linear, such as Stone Scabbard which provides no horizontal distance and poses a great risk of self destructing, and Hero's Spin, which while is a good out of shield option and has a very powerful final hit, exchanges said strengths for very poor distance.

Overall, the Mii Swordfighter is a very flexible and versatile fighter that is capable of walling out opponents, racking up damage, and securing a plethora of different kill confirms. They excel in mid-close range combat and ledgetrapping with the usage of Chakram and Gale Strike and can restrict projectile usage with Reversal Slash. However, they exchange these strengths for a variety of laggy finishers, a subpar grab game and average movement speed. Despite this, their strengths do outweigh their weaknesses and they have a good number of favorable or even matchups. As a result, the Mii Swordfighter has seen a surprisingly high amount of representation and results in tournaments.

==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
Much like the {{SSBU|Mii Gunner}}, the Mii Swordfighter retains most of their previous moveset, with the majority of the Swordfighter's changes being alterations to how their moves behave. While their changes are not as drastic as the {{SSBU|Mii Brawler}} (who received four entirely new special moves), the Swordfighter has nevertheless received an abundance of buffs (possibly as a result for being the lowest ranked Mii / newcomer in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''). Like the other Mii Fighters, the Mii Swordfighter now has set attributes, including middling [[weight]] (which is identical to that of a default-sized Mii Fighter in ''SSB4'') alongside high [[air speed]], but average or below-average stats otherwise ([[falling speed]], [[air acceleration]], [[walk]] speed, [[run]] speed). As a result, the Swordfighter's role as the middle-ground Mii Fighter has been reinforced.

The Swordfighter's default moveset has not been changed significantly, with only several attacks being altered ([[dash attack]] is now a wide dashing slash, and [[up smash]] now consists of two slashes that can hit three times in front). However, the Swordfighter's aerial attacks have been given lowered lag due to the universal reduction of [[landing lag]], patching up the Swordfighter's notorious lag issues in ''SSB4''. As a result, the Swordfighter arguably benefits the most from universal changes (in comparison to the other Mii Fighters), as many of their aerials can now start true combos and function as safe landing options, which is additionally beneficial due to their use of a [[disjoint]]ed weapon.

The biggest changes come from the Swordfighter's [[special move]]s. While only one of their special moves has been renamed (Slash Launcher is now [[Gale Stab]]), the majority of the Swordfighter's specials have significantly improved utility. Many now deal much higher damage, stronger knockback, or both (like [[Blurring Blade]] for example) giving the Swordfighter an abundance of powerful damage racking, KO options and fixing another of their former weaknesses.

The Swordfighter now has access to extremely effective combo starters courtesy of changes to their [[projectile]]s: [[Gale Strike]] deals much more damage, functions as a standard projectile, and now has [[fixed knockback]] with high [[hitstun]], making it one of the most powerful combo initiators in the Swordfighter's arsenal. [[Shuriken of Light]] can now [[lock]] opponents despite its lowered damage, and gains speed as it travels. [[Chakram]] travels faster when smash thrown and deals more damage, while the slow version now lingers and returns to where it was thrown, turning it into an [[approach]]-deterring and ledge-trapping tool.

Finally, due to the changes to their specials, the Swordfighter's previously mediocre default moveset has been addressed with buffs, allowing them to function just as effectively with their default moveset. Alongside the buffed Gale Strike, [[Stone Scabbard]] functions much better for recovery and is capable of KOing, [[Airborne Assault]] now gives the Swordfighter a half-second window to prevent [[helpless]]ness and deals more knockback, and [[Blade Counter]] can now initiate combos at low percents, or KO effectively due to its vertical angle.

However, the Mii Swordfighter is not without its nerfs. Like the other Miis, they now have set attributes, which make them easier to learn when playing against them. Their set attributes also make their mobility, despite being buffed overall, average while still being mediocre compared to most other swordfighters. However, their biggest nerf(s) are their decreased hitbox sizes for some of their default moveset. While other moves had their hitbox sizes increased, there are not as many and most of them are special moves. This worsens Mii Swordfighter's spacing and disjoint while also making one of their main weaknesses more exploitable.

The Mii Swordfighter still retains some other glaring weaknesses, including below-average frame data for many of their ground moves, and extremely weak throws, both of which have not altered significantly from their transition to ''Ultimate'' (and in the case of their throws, have not been changed at all).

Because of the slew of buffs to their neutral and special moves, the Mii Swordfighter is now far more flexible and the usage of Chakram and Gale Strike allows them to have a more rushdown-oriented or zoner playstyle.

Overall, the Mii Swordfighter's numerous buffs heavily outweigh their nerfs, making them much more effective than in ''Smash 4''; the Swordfighter has attained surprisingly decent representation in the early metagame as a result of this and is arguably the strongest of the 3 Mii Fighters. However, the Swordfighter's viability compared to the cast and, more significantly, their impact on the metagame, are still yet to be determined.

{{SSB4 to SSBU changelist|char=Mii Swordfighter}}

== Update history ==
Mii Swordfighter so far has received the fewest changes in patches compared to the other Mii Fighters (due to not receiving any buffs or nerfs in patches 2.0.0 and 3.1.0 unlike the other Miis). The Swordfighter has been given few changes throughout the game but has mainly received nerfs. In update 1.1.0, Chakram and Gale Strike became less effective for zoning due to their decreased range. In patch 3.0.0, Chakram and Gale Strike were nerfed again as well as Shuriken of Light, all dealing less shield damage much like many other projectiles in the game.

Mii Swordfighter has received some buffs on the other hand. Their edge attack has been given more range, patch 4.0.0 made Blurring Blade connect more reliably, and patch 7.0.0 increased Mii Swordfighter's shield size, making them the only Mii Fighter with this change.

In patch 9.0.0, Mii Swordfighter received a buff to Hero's Spin, making the move connect with itself more reliably. This change was simply reverting a shadow nerf from 2.0.0 that caused Hero's Spin to not connect on the final hit unless the player moved backwards on his joystick for the last hit. Being an undocumented change, it was rumored to have been an accident, the rumor being supported by 9.0.0's hotfix of the move.

Despite receiving more nerfs than buffs, the Mii Swordfighter's nerfs have not proven to be very significant due to most of them being universal, leaving them essentially as the same character as they were at launch.

{{MovesetTable
|game=SSB4
|neutralcount=3
|neutralname=&nbsp;
|neutral1dmg=3%
|neutral2dmg=3%
|neutral3dmg=5%
|neutraldesc=Performs an inward slash, followed by an outward slash, and concluded with an upwards-arching slash. The first two hits can lock, and the third hit has surprisingly good knockback growth for a neutral attack, allowing it to KO at the edge at very high percents. Curiously, the third swing deals a "punching" sound effect when it connects, instead of a slashing one.
|ftiltname=&nbsp;
|ftiltdmg=12%
|ftiltdesc=A horizontal swipe. Has decent range and can function as a KO option near the sides of the stage at very high percents.
|utiltname=&nbsp;
|utiltdmg=7%
|utiltdesc=Slashes in an arc above their heads. This covers the Swordfighter's entire body. At low percents, it can combo into itself, much like the up tilts of [[Young Link (SSBU)|the]] [[Toon Link (SSBU)|three]] [[Link (SSBU)|Links]]. At higher percents, it can combo into back or up aerials.
|dtiltname=&nbsp;
|dtiltdmg=8%
|dtiltdesc=A low sword thrust along the ground, similar to {{SSBU|Marth}}'s down tilt. Has low ending lag, and launches opponents slightly upward. Great for starting combos, especially with forward aerial, though it has a very low hitbox duration.
|dashname=&nbsp;
|dashdmg=10%
|dashdesc=Performs an outward swipe while sliding forward. Does good knockback, but has noticeable ending lag.
|fsmashname=&nbsp;
|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} (hilt), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|15}} (blade), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|16}} (tip)
|fsmashdesc=Steps forward and, with both arms, performs a two-handed downward slash. Deals good knockback and has surprisingly high range, but suffers from high lag on both ends.
|usmashname=&nbsp;
|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|4}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|3}} (hit 2), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|7}} (hit 3)
|usmashdesc=Jumps and performs two corkscrewing slashes over their head before touching the ground. There is a hitbox in front of the Swordfighter just before the first slash comes out, which will hit opponents in front of the Swordfighter a total of three times. Anyone touching the back of the Swordfighter will only be hit twice.
|dsmashname=&nbsp;
|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|12}} (front), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|15}} (back)
|dsmashdesc=Crouches and slashes low to the ground: first in front, and then behind.
|nairname=&nbsp;
|nairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|8}}
|nairdesc=Slashes in a circle while doing a corkscrew in the air. A good spacing and approach move that can be used to initiate combos when used close to the ground. However, as the move starts slowly and has a hitbox that starts from above and behind the Swordfighter, it is usually ineffective and risky for escaping juggles.
|fairname=&nbsp;
|fairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|3}} (hits 1 and 2), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|5}} (hit 3)
|fairdesc=Stabs forward three times, each stab at a slightly higher angle than the last. It is a reliable followup from down tilt at low percents, and useful for damage-racking. The first two hits trap opponents into the final hit, which deals good knockback. The first two slashes use the [[autolink angle]], which can be used to start ground combos.
|bairname=&nbsp;
|bairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14}}
|bairdesc=Spins to perform an extremely fast backwards slash. One of the Mii Swordfighter's more reliable finishers due to its reach and quick startup, allowing it to wall out approaches.
|uairname=&nbsp;
|uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|16}} (clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10}} (late)
|uairdesc=Points the sword above their head and spins. Very powerful when hitting clean, and the late hit can be used to initiate ground combos.
|dairname=&nbsp;
|dairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|1.5}} (hits 1-5), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|5}} (hit 6)
|dairdesc=Spins while holding their sword beneath themselves, hitting multiple times like a drill. Upon landing, the landing impact will create a shockwave that launches opponents away. When used in the air, the final hit deals somewhat low set knockback. Each hit can be used to drag a recovering opponent offstage, since each hit is a rather weak meteor smash.
|grabname=&nbsp;
|grabdesc=Reaches in front on them with their free hand.
|pummelname=&nbsp;
|pummeldmg=1.3%
|pummeldesc=A knee strike.
|fthrowname=&nbsp;
|fthrowdmg=3% (kick), 3% (throw)
|fthrowdesc=Front kicks the opponent away.
|bthrowname=&nbsp;
|bthrowdmg=3% (kick), 3% (throw)
|bthrowdesc=Knocks the opponent away with a roundhouse kick.
|uthrowname=&nbsp;
|uthrowdmg=2% (slash), 3% (throw)
|uthrowdesc=Tosses the enemy up and then performs a midair spinning slash to knock them away. Possibly Mii Swordfighter’s worst throw due to dealing low damage and knockback as well as having too much end lag to make it a versatile combo starter.
|dthrowname=&nbsp;
|dthrowdmg=2% (slam), 2% (throw)
|dthrowdesc=Slams the opponent on the ground. One of Mii Swordfighter's best throws since it can combo into neutral aerial, forward aerial and up aerial at low to mid percents. Notably, it can confirm into an up aerial at high percents, making it a strong KO confirm.
|floorfname=&nbsp;
|floorfdmg=7%
|floorfdesc=Swings the sword around themselves while getting up.
|floorbname=&nbsp;
|floorbdmg=7%
|floorbdesc=Swings the sword in a back-to-front circle while getting up.
|floortname=&nbsp;
|floortdmg=5%
|floortdesc=Swings the sword front to back before standing back up.
|edgename=&nbsp;
|edgedmg=9%
|edgedesc=Climbs onto the stage and stabs forward.
|nsdefname=Gale Strike
|nsdefdmg=13% (clean), 11% (mid), 10% (late)
|nsdefdesc=Creates a small tornado with a spinning slash and sends it forwards. The tornado travels half the length of Final Destination, dealing less damage as it travels. The projectile is unique as it deals [[set knockback]], and as such retains the old knockback physics, giving it increased [[hitstun]]. This makes it a potent combo initiator, allowing aerial followups at any percent range, commonly into up aerial or Hero's Spin. However, its excellent combo potential is offset by the move's slow startup, making it an overall poor projectile in neutral, though otherwise powerful when in the advantage. Oddly, the tornado will always cause [[reeling]], and in addition will always cause [[tumble]], regardless of how much knockback it deals.
|nsc1name=[[Shuriken of Light]]
|nsc1dmg=2% (close), 3.5% (mid), 5% (mid-far), 6.5% (far)
|nsc1desc=Throws a bright, translucent shuriken forwards. The shuriken gains more damaging power as it travels, unable to flinch opponents at point-blank range but doing more knockback at maximum range. The distance it covers, coupled with its spammability, makes it useful for camping. The shurikens can lock at mid to long range. Functions better as a conventional projectile when compared to Gale Strike, though it sacrifices its potent combo ability as a result.
|nsc2name=[[Blurring Blade]]
|nsc2dmg=0.8% (hits 1 - 5, uncharged), 8% (hit 6, uncharged), 1.9% (hits 1 - 5, fully charged), 19.2% (hit 6, fully charged)
|nsc2desc=The Swordfighter charges their sword, with the blade aflame, before stabbing with the sword forward multiple times and finishing with an upwards slash. The move can be reversed just before the attack is initiated. It deals very high knockback, allowing it to be a potent finisher or read. It also deals heavy damage to shields, especially when charged.
|ssdefname=Airborne Assault
|ssdefdmg=12%
|ssdefdesc=Gets into a charge-like stance, then launches at the enemy, somersaulting with the blade. Travels a set distance in a light arc, allowing then to hit downed and low crouching opponents. If used on any kind of platform, the Swordfighter will stop at the edge. The Swordfighter will perform a high-arc frontflip upon clean contact, or a high backflip if hitting a shield, making approaching safe against direct retaliation like grabs; however, the Swordfighter cannot alter their momentum after hitting something, which can be punishable. If used in midair, there is a period after the move concludes where the Swordfighter will be able to perform an additional action. However, if nothing is done during this period, the Swordfighter will enter the helpless state. It is an overall excellent recovery move due to its strengths, and also deals solid damage and knockback, allowing it to act as a KO move.
|ssc1name=[[Gale Stab]]
|ssc1dmg=8% (uncharged), 18.5% (fully charged)
|ssc1desc=The Swordfighter rushes forward, stabbing forward as they do so. If an opponent is hit, the Swordfighter will immediately slow down. The move as a whole functions similarly to [[Quick Draw]], with the ability to charge the move for increased distance, damage, and knockback, as well as putting the Swordfighter into a helpless state when the move is ended in midair. At high charge, the move deals high knockback and functions as a KO move. Unlike most moves of its kind, the Swordfighter is unable to snap to ledges until some time after the hitboxes conclude, making it risky to aim for ledges while recovering as it will lead to a [[self-destruct]].
|ssc2name=[[Chakram]]
|ssc2dmg=1.1% (per hit, slow chakram), 8% (fast chakram)
|ssc2desc=Throws a chakram as a projectile that can be angled and sent upwards, downwards, or straight forward. If inputted like a smash attack, it will fly faster with significantly increased range, speed and damage. Otherwise, it will fly in front of the Mii Swordfighter and slowly return towards the position from which it was thrown (much like a boomerang), hitting multiple times. The chakram can be lodged into the floor and walls, but cannot be picked up. This move is good for walling out approaches and initiating combos, and also for ledge trapping and edgeguarding. However, unlike other boomerangs in the game, it cannot travel through platforms and doesn't bounce, instead lodging itself in the ground and losing all momentum.
|usdefname=Stone Scabbard
|usdefdmg=4% (hit 1), 3% (hit 2), 5% (hit 3), 3% (through platforms)
|usdefdesc=Slashes upwards while jumping and then stabs downwards while falling. As a recovery, the Swordfighter gains a good distance both vertically and horizontally and can alter their momentum until they begin falling, after which they will plummet down and end up self-destructing if they do not grab a ledge. The first hit starts when the Swordfighter begins ascending, and the second hit is a meteor smash when they begin descending, though its low set knockback is intended to help drag opponents to the ground into the final hit. The landing hit deals high knockback and can KO at 110% near the sides of the stage, making it effective out of shield. When landing, the Mii's sword will go through thin platforms, which damages opponents underneath but deals no knockback. While it may seem effective for [[sacrificial KO]]s, Stone Scabbard is usually highly ineffective for this purpose due to the descending hit's low knockback and the speed the Swordfighter falls, which usually causes the Swordfighter to get KO'd before their opponent. However, it can work when used on characters with poor recoveries, or on ledgehanging opponents.
|usc1name=[[Skyward Slash Dash]]
|usc1dmg=2.2% (hit 1), 3% (hits 2 - 6), 4% (hit 7)
|usc1desc=After a brief charge, the Mii performs a series of sword strikes while dashing in a straight line, which can be aimed in any direction using the control stick. It overall functions like {{SSBU|Falco}}'s [[Fire Bird]]. Skyward Slash Dash grants more control over the Swordfighter's recovery direction compared to their other two up specials, and deals the most damage out of all of them. It also starts up quickly, making it effective out of shield or as a burst option. However, its final hit deals lackluster knockback; combined with its knockback angle, the move finds difficulty KOing even if it lands on extremely damaged opponents near the top blast lines, even at 200%. It can function as a risky KO offstage by dragging opponents towards the sides, though this will result in the Swordfighter self-destructing.
|usc2name=[[Hero's Spin]]
|usc2dmg=14%/13%/10%/7%/5% (ground, uncharged front), 12%/11%/8%/7%/5% (ground, uncharged back), 19.6%/18.2%/14%/12.5%/9.8% (ground, fully charged front), 16.8%/15.4%/12.6%/11.2%/9.8% (ground, fully charged back), 3% (air hit 1), 2% (air hits 2 - 4), 5% (air hit 5)
|usc2desc=When used on the ground, the Swordfighter spins with their sword held outward. If used in the air, the Mii will rise, performing multiple spinning slashes before ending with an outward slash. The ground variant can be charged to deal even more damage. Functions identically to [[Spin Attack]], but with poorer vertical recovery in exchange for extremely high knockback on the final strike when used in the air, able to KO middleweights from as low as 50% when initiated from the edge and drifting outwards for the duration of the attack. Like Spin Attack, Hero's Spin is potent out of shield on the ground, and easily edgeguards against recovering opponents if the Swordfighter drops offstage and performs the move away from the ledge. It is also a common followup for Gale Strike.
|dsdefname=Blade Counter
|dsdefdmg=1.5× (minimum 8%)
|dsdefdesc=The Swordfighter holds their sword in a reverse grip behind them. If hit, the Swordfighter retaliates with a [[counterattack]], flourishing their sword before performing an upward slash, knocking opponents upward. This move has low endlag and, unlike most counterattacks, sends opponents at a vertical angle. As a result, it can be used to initiate combos at low percents against weak moves, although it can be lackluster for countering against recovering opponents, due to its vertical trajectory limiting its effectiveness near the sides of the stage. Unique to this counterattack is its ability to "stun" grounded opponents on hit at the start of the counter, as it will automatically cancel the opponent's move and cause them to reel backwards before the counterattack comes out.
|dsc1name=[[Reversal Slash]]
|dsc1dmg=6% (slash); 1.8× (reflection)
|dsc1desc=The Swordfighter performs a slash, leaving an S-shaped rainbow-colored swirl. Functions like {{SSBU|Mario}}'s cape, as the slash reflects projectiles, flips nearby opponents, and the first use cause the Swordfighter to stall in midair. The damaging hitbox comes out after the reflecting hitbox, making it necessary to be used early if used for edgeguarding.
|dsc2name=[[Power Thrust]]
|dsc2dmg=15% (ground, clean sweetspot), 13% (ground, late sweetspot), 12% (ground, clean sourspot), 10% (ground, late sourspot), 13% (aerial, clean sweetspot), 11% (aerial, late sweetspot), 10% (aerial, clean sourspot), 8% (aerial, late sourspot), 7% (landing hit)
|dsc2desc=The Swordfighter dashes forward quickly, stabbing with the sword. When used in the air, the Swordfighter launches at a downwards diagonal direction. The Swordfighter will stop at the ledge if it is performed on the ground. Acts like [[Falcon Kick]] or [[Warlock Kick]], though with a tipper mechanic: the tip of the sword deals more damage. Every stage of the move deals powerful knockback, especially the clean sweetspot, making it a strong KO move.
|fsname=Final Edge
|fsdmg=1.7% (shockwave, close), 2.4% (shockwave, mid), 3% (shockwave, far)
|fsdesc=The Swordfighter gets into a combat stance, and then proceeds to perform a series of rapid slashes, releasing multicolored shockwaves. The shockwaves deal more damage as they reach their maximum distance. The range of the Final Smash covers all of Final Destination if used at the edge. Overall, this Final Smash acts like [[Mario Finale]], as it attempts to overwhelm opponents with its sheer number of projectiles and drag them offstage, potentially gimping them or KOing them by dragging them to the side blast lines.

==In competitive play==

In the early metagame of ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', many people have realized that the Mii Swordfighter had great potential to be a viable character due to having stronger frame data (with their aerials having the most notable change), better combo tools than the previous game, and a stronger set of kill confirms their moveset. This overall led to being considered a high-tier character at best, being the strongest of the Mii Fighters.

However, as the meta advanced, the viewpoint on the Mii Swordfighter's opinion has gone down considerably from release. Pros such as {{sm|ESAM}} and {{sm|ZeRo}} have come to believe that while they have a strong set of kill confirms and projectiles, they possess one of, if not the worst disjoint in the game, a below average speed for a swordfighter, lackluster throws aside from down throw, and struggle against rushdown and characters with significantly better disjoints such as {{SSBU|Cloud}}, {{SSBU|Lucina}}, and {{SSBU|Roy}}. Despite this, their strengths and results in competitive play have still been well demonstrated, thanks to players such as {{sm|Anonymous Moniker}} and {{sm|Tsu}}, and as a result has been considered a mid tier character, though this opinion may change as the other Miis have been seeing better success, potentially leaving Mii Swordfighter as the worst of the three Mii Fighters. This opinion, however, is still debatable.

==Role in [[World of Light]]==
[[File:WoL-52MiiSwordfighter.jpg|thumb|Finding Mii Swordfighter in World of Light|left]]
Although the Mii Swordfighter does not appear in the World of Light opening cutscene, they were vaporized and later imprisoned alongside the rest of the fighters (except {{SSBU|Kirby}}) when Galeem unleashed his beams of light.

In the mode itself, the default Mii Swordfighter can be fought in the small town square where [[List of spirits (Animal Crossing series)|Timmy and]] [[Master spirit|Tommy's]] is located, north-northeast of the first crossroads.

Defeating Mii Swordfighter automatically adds the default Mii Swordfighter under the name Mii with a default 1111 moveset to the list of Mii Fighters for all modes where Mii Swordfighters are usable. This Mii cannot be restored if deleted.

==[[Spirit]]==
Mii Swordfighter's fighter spirit is available periodically for purchase in the shop for 500 coins. Unlocking Mii Swordfighter in World of Light allows the player to preview the first spirit below in the Spirit List under the name "???". As a fighter spirit, it cannot be used in Spirit Battles and is purely aesthetic. Unlike most fighters, the spirit for Mii Swordfighter only uses the default Swordfighter's artwork from ''Ultimate''.

==Trivia==
*Compared to the other Miis:
**The Mii Swordfighter has a purple background effect when using a Final Smash (similar to {{SSBU|Dark Pit}}'s background effect) as opposed to having a blue effect.
**They use different [[Victory pose]]s in team battles.
**They have the most Spirit Battles involving Legend spirits (that being 2 battles).
**They have the lowest jump height and no wall jump.
**They do not gain Spirit Battles if certain DLC Mii Costumes have been purchased.
*The Mii Swordfighter is the first swordfighter that possesses a reflector, in this case, [[Reversal Slash]]; after them is {{SSBU|Hero}}, who has Bounce as one of his [[Command Selection]] spells.
*Like in ''Smash 4'', all of the Mii Swordfighter's chargeable special moves share the same charging sound.
*The Mii Swordfighter is one of the three characters to share the same down [[taunt]] pose, the other two being {{SSBU|Link}} and {{SSBU|Lucario}}.
*Mii Swordfighter’s pose in the group artwork for ''Ultimate'' resembles the third hit of its [[forward aerial]].
