While Sonic would drop mildly to 25th and 24th on the fourth (February 2010) and fifth tier lists (September 2010) respectively, near the end of 2010 Sonic players would achieve their best performance yet, with {{Sm|Espy}} and {{Sm|X}} placing 5th and 6th respectively at [[MLG Dallas 2010]], the final [[MLG]] ''Brawl'' event. Besides being the best placings Sonic achieved at a ''Brawl'' major, it was one of the best performances of any player using a mid-tier tier character in ''Brawl''{{'}}s history. As a result of these performances and other solid results, Sonic would rise to 22nd in solid mid tier on the sixth tier list (July 2011), where Sonic would remain for the rest of ''Brawl''{{'}}s competitive life. The placings at MLG Dallas would prove to be an anomaly, as no Sonic player would ever again come close to top 8 at a ''Brawl'' major (other than X playing 5th at [[Winter Game Fest VI]]), with Sonic's aforementioned flaws keeping him from being truly viable at a top level, though a Sonic player or two making it into the top 64 at large majors and top 32 at smaller majors would remain a common sight for the rest of ''Brawl''{{'}}s competitive life. | While Sonic would drop mildly to 25th and 24th on the fourth (February 2010) and fifth tier lists (September 2010) respectively, near the end of 2010 Sonic players would achieve their best performance yet, with {{Sm|Espy}} and {{Sm|X}} placing 5th and 6th respectively at [[MLG Dallas 2010]], the final [[MLG]] ''Brawl'' event.

==Role in [[The Subspace Emissary]]== | |||
[[File:SubspaceIntro-Sonic.png|thumb|250px|Sonic in ''[[SSE]]''.]] | |||
Sonic does not appear in The Subspace Emissary until the final battle with [[Tabuu]], but unlike the secret characters ({{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}, {{SSBB|Toon Link}} and {{SSBB|Wolf}}), Sonic can be chosen to fight Tabuu after [[The Great Maze]]. | |||
When the fighters reach Tabuu, he prepares his [[Off Waves]], which had already reduced most of them to trophy forms when they first opposed him. Just as he is about to release the attack, a blue blur rams into both of Tabuu's wings, shattering them. As the blue blur jumps up on a peak, it reveals itself to be Sonic. While he taunts, Tabuu's wings break apart as the fighters make their final stand against the villain. | |||
It is commonly believed that Sonic's minor role in the mode is due to the fact that he was added to ''Brawl''{{'}}s roster so late in development in 2007. | |||
