'''Steve''' ({{ja|スティーブ|Sutību}}, ''Steve'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the second [[fighter]] from [[Microsoft]] after {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}, and the eighth [[Downloadable content (SSBU)|DLC character]] for ''Ultimate''. He was confirmed as a playable character on October 1st, 2020 as the second downloadable character from {{h2|Downloadable content (SSBU)|Fighters Pass Vol. 2}}. '''Alex''' ({{ja|アレックス|Arekkusu}}, ''Alex''), a '''[[Zombie]]''' ({{ja|ゾンビ|Zonbi}}, ''Zombie''), and an '''[[Enderman]]''' ({{ja|エンダーマン|Endāman}}, ''Enderman'') also appear as alternate costumes. Steve was released as part of Challenger Pack 7 on October 13th, 2020<!--October 14th, 2020 in PAL and Japanese regions--> and is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #77]].

==Attributes==
Steve is a fighter who possesses slightly below-average weight and unremarkable mobility. He has the shortest jump out of the entire roster, in addition to a peculiar crouch and crawl based on ''Minecraft''{{'}}s "sneaking" mechanic where he simply hunches over, neither of which are very useful in battle. In addition to this, his walk speed, initial dash, running speed, and air speed are all among the bottom 10 of the respective stats, with his initial dash in particular being the worst in the game.

Taking many attributes from his home game, Steve is one of the most unique fighters on the roster. His battle strategy almost completely revolves around mining materials from the stage itself for several of his attacks, alongside crafting stronger weapons and the ability to place blocks almost everywhere within the fighting boundaries. These three attributes appear as his neutral special, [[Mine / Craft / Create Block]]. Mine can take a lot of time to get the desired materials, but Steve starts each stock with a set amount of materials for him to use, so he's not completely defenseless at the start of a fight. Craft is also fast, and in conjunction with the ability to teleport his crafting table to his current position, makes camping Steve's crafting table an ineffective strategy. Create Block is the most potent out of Steve's options and has a myriad of uses; this includes building temporary walls to interrupt opponents, stalling his recovery or his opponent's followups by standing on a floating block making it arguably one of the best recoveries in the entire series, blocking projectiles, [[mindgame]]s, and extremely deep [[edgeguarding]] and [[gimping]] opportunities. Steve can even use the short longevity of Create Block to immediately cancel some of the lag in his grounded moves while in the air such as up smash and down smash, leading to some of the most dangerous and diverse aerial combos in the game should he be able to set it up. Create Block is thus one of Steve's essential techniques, though due to the difficulty of building and managing his resources in combat, it can take much experience to truly master.

[[Minecart]] is a powerful side special: by itself, it is a capable KO option, and can be used as a horizontal recovery tool. Uniquely, Steve can jump out of a moving minecart, turning it into a grabbing projectile that can scoop up a foe, forcing them to struggle out of it. This lets Steve follow up with attacks or edgeguard/gimp recovering opponents. By using up gold and redstone, Steve can use powered rails to accelerate his minecart and catch foes off-guard with the sudden burst of speed. Additionally, he can recover the iron used up from creating the minecart if he is the one to break it afterwards. [[TNT]] is Steve's explosive down special, and can be set off from afar by the minecart or by a redstone trail to a wooden pressure plate of Steve's creation, which is extremely useful for ledge trapping. However, it acts as a double-edged sword, as the explosion affects everyone including Steve, and the person who triggers the pressure plate takes reduced knockback from the explosion, which can be used in Steve's advantage for mind games, or against him by a crafty opponent. Additionally, Steve can safely detonate TNT if he uses down smash and properly times a buffered air dodge. [[Elytra]] requires no materials on Steve's part to use, has a hitbox upon startup, and its ''Brawl''-like gliding mechanic allows Steve to mix up his recovery path, thwarting attempts at opposing edgeguards. While its horizontal recovery potential is almost unrivaled, it renders him vulnerable after the initial startup. He is also unable to switch directions after using it and will enter free fall if it is angled too high or hits a solid object, making a misinputted or misangled Elytra fatal.

Apart from his specials, Steve has noticeable strengths in his other attacks. His neutral attack, forward tilt and neutral aerial all involve a rapid sword swing, but unlike Mega Man's similar attacks, Steve's does not stop until the sword in question breaks, allowing him to continue a chain of sword hits for longer in comparison and set up for combos. This rapid-hit property is also seen in his up tilt and up aerial, which can juggle into various moves. His down-tilt flint and steel is a highly useful edgeguarding tool, as its flames are affected by gravity and can repeatedly block off the ledge for a two-frame punish, in addition to absorbing weak projectiles. In the same vein, down smash has lingering hitboxes on both sides and can be used as a semi-spike, especially in combination with Create Block. Steve's forward and back aerials also possess useful perks, the former possessing meteor smash potential if the opponent is hit near the end of the swing and the latter possessing powerful knockback. While his down aerial costs iron to use, Steve's anvil deals exceptional damage and knockback and can be canceled to avoid falling along with the anvil, making edgeguarding with the move far less risky. It should also be noted that his tool based attacks are further improved with high-tier tools, as gold swings faster and can combo more effectively, while diamond has excellent damage and knockback, especially when using his forward smash, forward air, and back air.

Steve's grab game is also respectable. While his tether grab cannot be used to grab the ledge, it can still grab shielded opponents from afar, granting Steve another ranged option to make up for his short-ranged normal attacks. His grab does have a noticable blindspot however, and can be low profiled in certain situations. His back throw angle leaves much to be desired, but his forward throw launches foes in a semi-spike manner and, along with his up throw, have very high base knockback, but average growth, making their KO potential lackluster. His down throw uses iron to slam an anvil on an opponent, dealing very high damage for a throw and sending at a useful angle for followups; however, it becomes incredibly weak without iron, as Steve will simply fling the opponent on the ground.

One of Steve's more powerful attributes is how much he can capitalize off of the advantage. Steve is widely agreed upon to have among the best advantage states in the entire game, with a wide range of tools that can lead to large amounts damage fairly easily, and with combos like axe ladders and pick loops, he can preserve the advantage to last even longer. His advantage stage is also uniquely strong at the edge, where he can place traps with TNT and and use blocks to hinder certain options like jumping. Steve also has a very unconventional neutral game, which in spite of its passivity can be highly effective; Steve can use Create Block to build walls between himself and his opponent, and hide behind them to mine and upgrade his tools, possibly with gold or diamond. The high threat level of diamond tools means that the opponent is usually forced to approach to prevent Steve from crafting diamond tools, and may have to navigate around or destroy the blocks that may have been placed by Steve, which can be exploited by him to more easily find openings for whiff punishing.

Despite his strengths, Steve's attributes present flaws. His mobility is underwhelming, having among the worst ground mobility in the game due to the combination of poor run speed and the worst initial dash in the game (as opposed to most characters of this speed class usually having relatively high initial dash in contrast to their run speed). His aerial mobility is also unremarkable, having poor air speed and very low jump height, to the point where he's unable to reach the lower platforms of Battlefield without burning his double jump. Finally, despite being relatively short compared to an average humanoid character, Steve's crouch and crawl barely reduce his height and his hitstun animations leave him in an upright position, preventing him from ducking under attacks and leaves him vulnerable to being attacked.

His moveset has its own downsides. His down tilt and up smash leave Steve stuck until the animation is finished, making him open to a punish from the sides. While many of his core moves (such as his sword and axe moves) are very spammable, they only cover a very short distance and do not cover below or behind him, leaving Steve without a useful "get-off-me" option against combo-centric opponents, excluding using iron to summon an anvil or building a block to stall his fall, which are only effective with enough iron and within the stage's build limit, respectively. Additionally, the spammability of his moves are held back by Steve's low mobility, making it unwieldy for him to attempt rushdown tactics. His grab's range is offset by its very high ending lag, making his grab game less effective against mobile fighters, and his down throw is significantly less damaging and effective without iron.

Steve's ''Minecraft''-inspired playstyle can also leave him in troublesome situations. If he mines more materials than his inventory can fit, he will end up discarding resources that might have otherwise been valuable. This negatively affects Create Block, as it always prioritizes the weakest block first; weak blocks can be broken very easily by hitting them with attacks or hitting the bottom side of the block, making them less effective for edgeguarding or creating a blockade. Additionally, walling off a recovering opponent may not be an effective option, as damaging hitboxes can easily plow through weaker blocks without much trouble, and hitting Steve (or placing them near the build limit) will cause his blocks to break significantly faster. His tools can break if used up enough, forcing him to mine to collect materials and craft to re-upgrade them. Furthermore, getting KO'd results in Steve's tools reverting to wood (though he keeps resources already in his inventory), and mining for materials/crafting new tools can be difficult against faster opponents, who can constantly pressure Steve and deter him from gaining resources. His reliance on materials for the majority of his strongest techniques prevents him from repeatedly using them to a greater extent, due to the glaring downsides of running out of a specific material (ex. his down air and down throw accomplishing nothing with a lack of iron). Careless use of his resources will essentially leave him with almost no useful abilities: the time needed to mine can become very detrimental when fully depleted of resources, or when barehanded/using wooden or stone tools, as it takes a significant amount of time to fully replenish resources or dig for gold/diamond.

His lack of a conventional projectile and short attacking range demands he gets in close to dish out damage, upon which fighters more suited for close combat than Steve can leave him constantly juggled. Steve's recovery, while having amazing horizontal and vertical reach, is also limited in some ways due to his low jump height and airspeed. Elytra takes some experience to get used to, as its mechanics can make it difficult to angle, and it can also be cut short if he bumps into an object. Minecart can be used for horizontal distance, though it does not grant good distance without gold, and cannot be used without iron. (Although Powered Minecart also uses up redstone, it and TNT use so little that running out of redstone never happens without specific setup to do so.) His blocks cannot be placed too far out from the edges of the stage, and the block Steve is standing on deteriorates faster than normal, which can limit his ability to stall offstage due to him requiring materials. TNT can be used in niche situations since it gives Steve a slight vertical boost when dropped in the air, but it's usually not recommended due to its extreme resource cost.

Overall, Steve excels in a strange combination of close-up fighting, stage control, and fearsome edgeguarding, resulting in a large learning curve for players eager to pick him up. His toolkit gives him powerful overall abilities when mastered, some of which are not possessed by any other fighter in the roster; however, poor use of his resources can render him almost helpless and remove some of his best options, and his terrible mobility, compounded by a reliance on fairly linear options for approaching, means he faces an uphill battle against characters that outrange him, or are fast enough to weave around his defenses. Although initial impressions of the character were mixed, dedicated players such as Jake and yonni helped change the character's perception for the better.

==Update history==
The majority of changes Steve received from updates were bug fixes focused on removing game-breaking glitches. Aside from these and an aesthetic change, Steve has only received two balance-oriented changes: version 11.0.0 slightly buffed his down smash by eliminating a blind spot close to Steve, and version 13.0.1 nerfed his up smash by reducing the hitstun of each multi-hit, making Block-canceled up smash follow-ups slightly harder. Ultimately, aside from making the game and character play as intended, Steve is mostly unchanged.

==Moveset==
*Steve can [[crawl]].
*Steve can tilt his head up and down by tilting the [[Control Stick]] in said direction when he is walking, jumping and [[Mine / Craft / Create Block|creating blocks]]. This mechanic is purely aesthetic and reflects how the player's head moves in ''Minecraft''.
*Steve possesses a unique "resource" mechanic, which allows him to carry resources to build blocks, use certain moves, or upgrade his tools. The resources that Steve can possess are dirt, wood, stone, iron, gold, diamond and redstone, all of which can be obtained through mining (detailed further below). Depending on the stage, dirt may be substituted with sand (such as on [[Tortimer Island]] and [[Coliseum]]), ice (such as on [[Summit]]), or wool (such as on [[Magicant]] and [[Living Room]]). All resources (except for redstone) are displayed above his in-game portrait, with a limit of 100 for block-building materials.
**Steve starts the game with 36 units of dirt, 18 units of wood, 3 units of iron and 2/3 redstone, the latter two of which are replenished should Steve lose a life without sufficient said material in stock.
**Gold and diamond are only shown when available by the right of the gauge, while iron, which occupies the right of the gauge, displays its exact quantity up to 8. Cheaper materials are displayed proportionally and make up the left of the gauge.
**Five tool materials exist: wood, stone, iron, gold and diamond. Except for gold, each material mentioned is incrementally more powerful and durable than the last. Gold weapons are weak and fragile, but attacks with them are faster than those with weapons made from other materials, making them ideal for [[combo]]s, and outside of neutral attack, up tilt and up aerial, gold weapons have greater knockback scaling than the other tool tiers. The typical damages of each tool type are:
***No weapon: 0.8x damage
***Wood or gold: 1.0x damage
***Stone: 1.1x damage
***Iron: 1.2x damage
***Diamond: 1.35x damage
*With continuous use, Steve's sword, axe, pickaxe and shovel will use up durability points. Once all durability points for a set tool have been used up, it breaks apart and Steve can no longer use that tool. If Steve tries to use an attack that requires a weapon he does not have, he will perform a weak punch with minimal range instead. This prevents him from constantly brawling out at close range with his weapons, and every so often forces him to mine the ground for resources and craft new tools at a crafting table. The durability varies between tools made of different materials, with wood and gold being the least durable while diamond and iron are the most durable.
**As each tool has its own durability, Steve can have different levels of each tool during a stock (eg. crafting a diamond set, using up a diamond pickaxe, then crafting a gold pickaxe while retaining his other diamond tools).
*Steve's tools reset to wood when he is KO'd, though he keeps any resources throughout stocks. If he is KO'd with less than three units of iron, he will respawn with three.

|neutraldesc=Steve quickly swings his sword in front of himself with short reach. He can repeat this attack by holding down the attack button, and can walk and jump, forward and backward, while doing this, making it functionally similar to {{SSBU|Mega Man}}'s Mega Buster and {{SSBU|Min Min}}'s [[Punch]]. It is one of the few neutral attacks in the game that cannot [[lock]], and the hitbox is unable to hit floored opponents unless their hitboxes are large.

|ftiltdmg=2.72%{{!!}}3.4%{{!!}}3.74%{{!!}}4.08%{{!!}}4.59%

|utiltname=Axe ({{ja|斧|Ono}})
|utiltdmg=5.2%{{!!}}6.5%{{!!}}7.15%{{!!}}7.8%{{!!}}8.775%
|utiltdesc=Steve quickly swings his axe above himself. Similarly to his neutral attack/forward tilt/neutral aerial, Steve is able to repeat the attack by holding down the attack button, and can jump or walk forward or backward while he is doing this. Both moves have low upward knockback, making them useful as combo starters/extenders. Unlike up air, if he jumps while using this move, continues using it while airborne and then lands, he will not suffer landing lag. The hitbox reaches slightly to the left and right of Steve, allowing it to hit standing characters of average height.
|dtiltname=Flint and Steel ({{ja|火打ち石と打ち金|Hiuchīshi To Uchigane}})
|dtiltdmg=0.8% (loop hit), 6.4% (last hit){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|dtiltdesc=Steve uses flint and steel to create a flame with a lingering hitbox in front of himself. The flame is a looping multi-hit attack, with the final hit launching opponents. If Steve uses this move at the end of a platform or near a ledge, the flame travels downward, allowing him to [[edgeguard]] and [[2 frame punish|2-frame]] opponents, although this is most effective on characters with underwhelming recoveries since the flame sends at a diagonal angle. While it has a long-lasting hitbox, it has very low ending lag, giving it solid combo potential. It can be used to trade with weaker projectiles as well. This move does not use up durability points. Can be reflected and absorbed.
|dashname=Pickaxe ({{ja|ツルハシ|Tsuruhashi}})

|dashdesc=A quick running strike with his pickaxe with high [[knockback]].
|fsmashname=Sword ({{ja|剣|Ken}})
|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|12}}{{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|15}}{{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|16.5}}{{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|18}}{{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|20.25}}
|fsmashdesc=Rears back before performing a slower but strong inward swing with his sword, based on the sweep attack that swords possess from ''Minecraft: Java Edition''. Decently fast for an attack of its kind. As the hitbox goes as far as the pixelated slash effect, and as Steve takes a step forward to attack, it has deceptively good range (having a longer range than most of his other moves). The charging animation can also dodge attacks with good timing, as Steve steps back slightly. Unique to this attack, the diamond sword variant has higher knockback scaling than the other tool tiers (apart from gold), rendering it extremely powerful for an attack of its type (while the gold sword does have the highest knockback scaling, its reduced damage output makes it overall less powerful).
|usmashname=Magma Block ({{ja|マグマ ブロック|Maguma Burokku}})
|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|1}} (first hit), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|0.4}} (loop hit), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} (last hit){{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|7.4}} (pickaxe){{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|8.14}} (pickaxe){{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|8.88}} (pickaxe){{!!}}{{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|9.99}} (pickaxe)
|usmashdesc=Steve places a magma block above himself before breaking it with his pickaxe. The move has a [[flame]] effect, possesses great vertical range, and hits multiple times, similarly to {{SSBU|Roy}}'s up smash. It has a ground-level hitbox in front of Steve that scoops opponents into the block, making it effective out-of-shield or against landing opponents. This scooping hitbox will only hit grounded opponents. However, with the exception of the initial grounded launcher hitbox, it only hits directly above Steve, and despite its animation, Steve cannot move until well after the move is complete as he automatically breaks the block afterwards, with the move having very high ending lag. This move does not use up durability points. The pickaxe itself can also deal damage. Despite its unorthodox animation, it is incredibly powerful for a multi-hitting up smash, KOing Mario at ground level of Final Destination at 102%.
|dsmashname=Lava Bucket ({{ja|溶岩バケツ|Yōgan Baketsu}})
|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|0.6}} (loop hit), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|14}} (last hit){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|dsmashdesc=Steve pulls out a lava-filled bucket and pours lava on both sides of himself. Both hits have long lingering hitboxes (with each lasting 10 frames) and are powerful [[semi-spike]]s, which can be used efficiently for [[edge guarding]]. It is slightly affected by gravity near ledges, similarly to Steve's down tilt, although this is much less noticeable. This move does not use up durability points. The lava can be reflected and absorbed.
|nairname=Sword ({{ja|剣|Ken}})
|nairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|2.72}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|3.4}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|3.74}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|4.08}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|4.59}}
|nairdesc=A sword swing identical to neutral attack and forward tilt.
|fairname=Pickaxe ({{ja|ツルハシ|Tsuruhashi}})
|fairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|8.4}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|9.6}} (clean){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10.5}} (early/clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|12}} (late){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|11.55}} (early/clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13.2}} (late){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|12.6}} (early/clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14.4}} (late){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14.175}} (early/clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|16.2}} (late)
|fairdesc=A pickaxe swing in front of himself. It is surprisingly fast and powerful, and can [[meteor smash]] if the opponent is hit near the end of the swing, though it has short range. It is able to combo from Steve's sword swinging moves, alongside up tilt and up air. If buffered out of a short hop, Steve will instead perform a sword swing that behaves like a neutral aerial but uses the forward aerial's animation and staleness.
|bairname=Pickaxe ({{ja|ツルハシ|Tsuruhashi}})
|bairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|9.2}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10.4}} (clean){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|11.5}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13}} (clean){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|12.65}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14.3}} (clean){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13.8}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|15.6}} (clean){{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|15.525}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|17.55}} (clean)
|bairdesc=A pickaxe swing behind himself with powerful horizontal knockback but low range. The move is stronger during the later part of the swing. The power of the diamond variant puts it among the strongest back aerials in the game. If buffered out of a short hop, Steve will instead perform a sword swing that behaves like a neutral aerial but uses the back aerial's animation and staleness.
|uairname=Axe ({{ja|斧|Ono}})
|uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|5.2}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|6.5}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|7.15}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|7.8}}{{!!}}{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|8.775}}
|uairdesc=An axe swing identical to up tilt, but with less ending lag. Very weak, but very spammable; the gold version has the lowest total duration of any aerial attack in the series (in fact beating {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s {{Mvsub|Meta Knight|SSBB|up aerial|alt=infamous up aerial}} in ''Brawl''), while all other versions last the same amount of time as the aforementioned attack. This speed easily allows up aerial to combo into itself and other aerials, though because of Steve's poor mobility, it is not easily abusable like Meta Knight's up aerial. Placing blocks and using a combination of up aerial and up smash's looping hits can slowly drag opponents up towards the top blast zone to set up extended combos. Unlike up tilt, it cannot transition into a ground variant, and upon landing with up air, Steve will suffer some landing lag; however, oddly, when up tilt transitions into an aerial variant and then lands, it does not incur landing lag and the move is not interrupted.
|dairname=Anvil ({{ja|金床|Kinshō}})
|dairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|18}} (normal), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10}} (cancelled), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|8}} (re-fall){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|dairdesc=A powerful [[stall-then-fall]] in which Steve drops an anvil directly below himself while standing on it. The move can be canceled, a first for a stall-then-fall; if it is canceled, then Steve will jump off of the anvil, but it will continue falling. The jump does not use up Steve's double jump. After landing, the anvil remains on the stage for a brief amount of time before disappearing, which can block opponents or be stood on. If the ground under the anvil disappears or is destroyed before the anvil disappears, the anvil will start falling again. The anvil has incredible knockback and high damage, being capable of KOing grounded opponents as early as 88%, making it the strongest down aerial in the game. It is also notoriously powerful for contesting against juggles or upward attacks, due to its damage giving it very high [[priority]], and its knockback being capable of KOing even earlier near the top blast lines. This move uses up one piece of iron and does nothing at all if Steve does not have any iron. If an anvil has been dropped recently, Steve cannot drop another until it disappears on its own, or after a short time if it is dropped offstage. The anvil counts as a projectile until it lands, even while Steve is riding it. Steve can mine a stationary anvil for iron, redstone and rare materials.
|grabname=Fishing Rod ({{ja|釣り竿|Tsurizao}})
|grabdmg={{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|grabdesc=A tether-like grab using a fishing rod with a wide range. Unlike {{SSBU|Isabelle}}'s similar-looking [[Fishing Rod]], it functions as an actual tether grab despite the lack of a grab aerial and tether recovery.<!--This is because the grab uses a secondary model that gets attached to the throw bone, which all tethers use and no extended grab uses.--> Grounded grabbed opponents are trapped within a fence while Steve holds them. The grab itself starts up relatively fast, but has very high ending lag; additionally, despite the hook being able to visibly drop past ledges like Isabelle's, it will not grab opponents if it does so. The hook also arcs as it's cast and can possibly miss smaller characters entirely depending on their position. This move does not use up durability points.
|pummelname=
|pummeldmg=1.5%{{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|pummeldesc=Punches the opponent while they are trapped in the fence.
|fthrowname=Piston Thrust ({{ja|ピストンでふっとばす|Pisuton de Futtoba}})
|fthrowdmg=3% (hit 1), 6% (throw){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|fthrowdesc=Steve stands on a piston and uses it to launch the opponent forward. It is a [[semi-spike]] with very high base knockback, but rather low growth, as it can only KO middleweights past 140% at the ledge. With rage, it is capable of being a KO throw. This move does not use up durability points.
|bthrowname=Fishing Rod Throw ({{ja|釣り竿で投げる|Tsurizao de Nageru}})
|bthrowdmg=10%{{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|bthrowdesc=Steve throws the opponent backward with the fishing rod. Rather weak and easy to DI due to its diagonal angle, and sends the opponent diagonally, making it a mediocre option for setting up edgeguards. This move does not use up durability points.
|uthrowname=Piston Thrust ({{ja|ピストンでふっとばす|Pisuton de Futtoba}})
|uthrowdmg=3% (hit 1), 8% (throw){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|uthrowdesc=Steve places the opponent on a piston launching them upward. Like forward throw, it has very high base knockback, but average growth, making its KO ability rather average. With rage, it is capable of being Steve's strongest KO throw. This move does not use up durability points.
|dthrowname=Anvil Crush ({{ja|金床でつぶす|Kinshō de Tsubusu}})
|dthrowdmg=7% (anvil), 8% (throw){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|dthrowdesc=Steve throws the opponent on the ground before an anvil drops on them, launching them forward and consuming a piece of iron. Without sufficient iron, no anvil will appear, and Steve will simply throw the opponent onto the ground, making it weaker overall. Both versions are good for use in combos at low percents, with the anvil version dealing 15% total and being the second most damaging throw in the game (surpassed by {{SSBU|King K. Rool}}'s up throw which deals 16%). The anvil can be reflected.

|nsname=Mine / Craft / Create Block
|nsdmg={{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|nsdesc='''Mine (ground)''': Steve mines the ground or wall in front of himself to gather resources using an axe, pickaxe, or shovel. As with using a sword, axe, or pickaxe during standard attacks, mining uses up the durability of the weapon used. The weapon used and the speed of mining are determined by the type of [[terrain]] being mined, and the longer it is mined, the higher the quality of materials collected, such as diamond. If Steve has no tools available, he will use his bare hands instead; however, this causes him to mine more slowly. Steve can mine miscellaneous cheap materials (dirt/sand/ice/wool, depending on the stage and changing along with [[Stage Morph]]), wood, stone, iron, gold, diamonds and redstone. Similarly to {{SSBB|Olimar}}'s [[Pikmin Pluck]] in ''Brawl'', the resources that Steve obtains most often with this move are dependent on the type of terrain being mined, though there is a set order to the materials mined from each terrain. However, on [[Battlefield form]] and [[Ω form]] stages, materials will appear at a pre-determined rate regardless of the type of terrain, though the tool used will still reflect the material of the surface resources are gathered on. This was done in order to prioritize match quality for more serious players due to the popularity of both forms for competitive battles, and to reduce the factors of [[randomness]]. If Steve is standing on a block he placed using Create Block, he will instead break the block underneath him without gaining any resources.

'''Craft (crafting table)''': Steve uses his resources to craft a full set of tools (sword, axe, pickaxe and shovel), restoring their durability. Steve starts the battle with wooden tools, with a crafting table appearing at his starting point. The most valuable resources are prioritized when performing this move; for example, if Steve has both iron and stone, then his tools will be upgraded to iron. When upgrading to a new tier of tools, a ''Minecraft''-styled progression bar appears above Steve, and Steve will flourish a new weapon after crafting completes. He is vulnerable to attacks throughout the upgrading animation but can cancel it during the early frames. The crafting table itself is considered a background object and will not interrupt player movement. It also has 30 HP, can be damaged (and thus cause [[hitlag]]), and can be destroyed by Steve or his opponents. If destroyed, the crafting table will respawn at Steve's location following a few seconds, and Steve can also summon the crafting table to his location by pressing the special move button while shielding, which uses a small amount of resources; if he does not have sufficient resources, he will not be able to spawn or move his crafting table. When summoned, it will have its HP restored. If multiple Steves are present, then they can use each other's crafting tables as well as their own.

'''Create Block (midair)''': Steve places a block directly beneath himself, which functions as a platform. If the special move button is held down while Steve is walking on a block or jumping, he can continue placing blocks directly beneath himself as he moves. He can only place blocks a certain distance around the stage, signified by a pink barrier that appears while placing blocks adjacent to the limit. Up to 8 blocks can be on-screen at the same time for each Steve in play, and placing excessive blocks cause the oldest blocks to disappear instantly. The blocks break slowly over time, but touching them or hitting them (including hitting the block on the underside while jumping) speeds this process up. Blocks placed either near the build limit or after Steve was knocked into the air and yet to [[Recovery|recover]] flash like a helpless character and break faster than they would otherwise. Placed blocks can absorb incoming attacks, including projectiles, and can also be used to aid Steve's recovery or to edgeguard opponents. Blocks can be made using dirt, sand, wool, ice, wood, stone, or iron, and will break more slowly the more valuable the material they are made of is. Unlike Craft, the least valuable resources are prioritized when performing this move.
|ssname=Minecart
|ssdmg=19% (powered rail acceleration), 15.6%-7.5%{{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|ssdesc=Steve hops into a minecart and rides around the stage, placing rails as he does so. If Steve has redstone and gold, he can use it to lay down powered rails (powered via a redstone torch), making the minecart faster and more powerful. He can push the special move again while in the Minecart to lay down powered rails again (if he has redstone and gold) to make the cart burst forward again. Steve can jump out of the minecart at any time, but it still moves forward a short distance afterwards, trapping other fighters within it should they make contact; a trapped fighter will be stuck in the minecart for longer the more [[damage]] they have, but can escape by [[button mashing]]. Both a ridden and empty minecart are considered projectiles. Steve needs sufficient iron to place the minecart, and sufficient materials to place rails. Each rail placed uses 1 unit of dirt/stone/wood/iron. If Steve has little/no wood or stone, he will still bring out the minecart but will stop moving almost immediately. Steve can jump back into an empty minecart, and can move so long as he has tracks; as a result, he can move indefinitely in an enclosed space (such as between two walls). Steve can hop in and out of his minecart a maximum of two times per spawn, and can break a stationary minecart to regain the iron used to craft it. If Steve has no iron, he will face the inputted direction and attempt to place a minecart, but fail. This can be used to change his direction while airborne.
|usname=Elytra
|usdmg=5% (clean), 3% (late){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|usdesc=Steve dons an elytra and propels himself forward, upward, or downward with a firework rocket. During his initial burst, Steve has a damaging [[hitbox]]. The mechanics of this move appear similar to ''Brawl''{{'}}s [[gliding]] mechanic, with Steve being able to control his trajectory while gliding. Its maximum horizontal distance is extremely high, but its vertical distance is poor in comparison without proper usage<ref>[https://clips.twitch.tv/FastBusyCroquetteDBstyle-QPyutQDvwYLndeqB Elytra Recovering from the Bottom Blastzone]</ref>. He is also able to turn around during the [[startup]] of the move, but he cannot change directions or cancel the move once he starts flying. The elytra falls off after a few seconds of flight or if Steve hits a solid object in mid-glide, leaving Steve [[helpless]]; he can also cancel the move by pressing the shield or special attack button, though this will also put him in freefall. This move does not use up durability points.
|dsname=TNT
|dsdmg=28%/14% (redstone detonation), 20%/10% (non-redstone detonation){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|dsdesc=Steve lays a TNT block on the ground; this uses up 50 "points" of resources, with each resource giving incrementally bigger points (dirt = 2, wood/stone = 5, iron = 10). The TNT acts similarly to a [[Blast Box]]; it will fall downwards if placed in midair, can be detonated if hit for 20% damage, and takes double damage from [[flame]] attacks<ref>[https://twitter.com/Ruben_dal/status/1374798400760127488 TNT health]</ref> (but not immediately like the Blast Box), but also detonates after enough time passes. Its explosion is extremely powerful and causes [[Special Zoom]] on hit. If Steve holds down the special button after placing the TNT, he can place a trail of redstone, then a pressure plate upon letting go of the special button, which will manually detonate the TNT if stepped on and increases the power of the explosion. The redstone trail can be placed so long as Steve has redstone and is on the ground near a TNT block, but hitting the TNT block with enough knockback will move the block, and cause the redstone trail and pressure plate to disappear. The TNT affects both Steve and his opponents; however, if the TNT is triggered via a pressure plate, then the fighter who triggered the TNT takes reduced knockback from the explosion, allowing for creative traps. The TNT block can be mined to regain iron, redstone and rarer materials.
|fsname=House of Boom
|fsdmg=15% (trapping hit), 45% (cutscene){{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}} {{!!}}
|fsdesc=Steve places a giant piston in front of himself, which extends to catch his opponents in the attack. A cinematic plays where the affected fighter is launched into a dark building in a forest, resembling a Jungle Temple, filled with TNT, where they are attacked by Creepers and Zombies, resulting in the entire building exploding as Steve comically eats a so-called "victory steak". When the cinematic ends, the victim is sent flying while Steve repeatedly crouches. The piston can hit multiple fighters, but only the first one hit will appear in the cinematic, though the piston causes enough knockback to KO bystanders as well. This attack does not use up durability points.

===Durability system===
True to ''Minecraft'', Steve's tools can break after a certain amount of use. While similar to the durability system of {{SSBU|Robin}}, there are a few differences, including the lack of a hitbox upon a tool breaking, no visible durability indication, and the need to craft replacement tools.

===[[Taunt]]s===
*'''Up taunt''': Jumps twice, and while in midair, punches three times. Due to Steve jumping the same height that his [[short hop]] covers, he can dodge some attacks with lower-reaching hitboxes. This gesture can be found in the ''Minecraft'' community, where it can be a greeting.
*'''Side taunt''': Pulls out and eats a Steak.
*'''Down taunt''': Sneaks (crouches) three times while looking toward the screen. This is another popular gesture found in the ''Minecraft'' community, where players crouch repeatedly as a sign of peace, friendship, or agreement.

==In [[competitive play]]==
Leading up to release, there was a lot of speculation for how Steve would work in ''Smash'' due to his unique moveset compared to the rest of the roster. Many players saw a lot of potential in him, with several players going as far as to call him top tier or outright broken due to his block-creating and crafting mechanics, his glide recovery that works similarly to the infamous [[glide]] mechanic in ''Brawl'', and his high power. After his release, players had mixed reactions to his viability. Some players such as {{Sm|ESAM}} and {{Sm|MkLeo}} believed that Steve was potentially high tier due to his incredible edge guarding and a great combo game. On the other hand, players such as {{Sm|Dabuz}} believed his weaknesses, especially his poor mobility, would make him more of a low-mid tier character. Steve also suffers from being outranged by other swordfighters in neutral ({{SSBU|Sephiroth}}, {{SSBU|Cloud}}, {{SSBU|Ike}}, {{SSBU|Pyra}}, {{SSBU|Mythra}}), or from being camped out by other characters who can zone him out even better ({{SSBU|Hero}}, {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}}, {{SSBU|Yoshi}}).

Due to the [[COVID-19|COVID-19 pandemic]], Steve's initial representation in competitive play was online. Although most of his initial success came from {{Sm|Salem}}, Steve gradually saw a larger playerbase that met with consistently high placements online. Most notably, {{Sm|Jake}} won several large weeklies, defeated several top 10 online players, and was ranked 1st on 2 iterations of the [[Panda Global Online Leaderboard]]. 

Following the return of offline competitive play, Steve continued to see a strong presence at national tournaments thanks to {{Sm|Jake}}, {{Sm|yonni}}, {{Sm|DDee}}, and {{Sm|acola}}. From a regional perspective, {{Sm|RockMan}} obtained several promising results and notable wins over top players in their respective regions.  As a result of these placements, the current consensus on Steve is that he is a high tier, with a few players arguing he has the potential to be top tier in the right hands.

=={{SSBU|Classic Mode}}: Journey to the Far Lands==
[[File:SSBU Congratulations Steve.png|thumb|Steve's congratulations screen.]]
Steve faces off against fighters who represent enemy mobs in ''Minecraft''. With the exceptions of Rounds 2 and 6, all rounds are stamina battles. The title is a reference to the [https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Far_Lands/Java_Edition/Pre-Beta_1.8 Far Lands], a glitch that used to exist in both [https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Java_Edition ''Minecraft: Java Edition''] and the [https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Bedrock_Edition ''Bedrock Edition''] where land an extreme distance away from the starting point of a world formed large, fold-like cliffs due to overflow errors in the generation system. The final battle is against a giant Ridley and two tiny Endermen.

==Role in [[World of Light]]==
[[File:WoL-77Steve.jpg|thumb|The message that shows Steve's availability in World of Light|left]]
Due to his status as downloadable content, Steve does not have a role in World of Light. Instead, he is automatically unlocked for use in the mode after freeing 10 fighters from [[Galeem]]'s control, without having to fight Steve to free him. If loading an existing save file that meets this condition before downloading Steve, he is immediately unlocked.
{{clrl}}

==[[Spirit]]s==
Steve's fighter spirit can be obtained by completing {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}. It is only available periodically for purchase in the shop for 300 Gold, but only after Steve has been downloaded. Unlocking Steve 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 are purely aesthetic. Alex has a fighter spirit of her own, available exclusively through the shop. Each fighter spirit has an alternate version that replaces it with its artwork in ''Ultimate''.

Additionally, the Zombie and Enderman have an attack primary and neutral primary spirits respectively, but they do not have fighter spirits.

==Trivia==
*Steve is referred within the game files with the codename "pickel". In Japanese, the loanword {{ja|ピッケル|Pikkeru}} ''pickel'' is used to refer to ice axes, deriving from the German word "Eispickel".<ref>[https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ピッケル ピッケル - Wikipedia]</ref>
*According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], Steve was largely easy to develop conceptually, but the programming work required to "bring the fighter to life" was very difficult.
**He also revealed that every stage in the game had to be reworked to make use of Steve's block-placing ability,<ref>https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/10/every_smash_bros_ultimate_stage_has_to_be_reworked_for_minecraft_steves_inclusion</ref> and stated that it took a large amount of effort to recode every stage so that his blocks could function properly on them.
** Another development hurdle Sakurai and his team encountered while working on Steve was the issue of the Enderman costume unintentionally blending in to stages with dark backgrounds. This resulted in Sakurai quizzing the development team by taking various dark screenshots with said costume in it and tasking them with finding it.<ref>https://twitter.com/KodyNOKOLO/status/1455935774088704000</ref>
**Sakurai stated that when Nintendo approached him about adding ''Minecraft'' content, he was at first skeptical of the idea, but ultimately agreed to it. This has been misinterpreted by some to mean that he did not desire to do so.
*According to former ''Minecraft'' production director Daniel Kaplan, it took at least 5 years of negotiating between Nintendo and Mojang for Steve to appear in ''Smash''.<ref>https://twitter.com/Kappische/status/1311773807175180296</ref>
*Steve is the first fighter in ''Smash'' history to have a victory pose modified in an update (not including [[List of updates (SSB4)/1.1.1 changelog|an update in ''Smash 4'']] that universally improved slow-motion effects on sword-swinging animations). In this case, Steve's Up victory pose was modified in [[List of updates (SSBU)#9.0.1|version 9.0.1]] so the Steak disappears after he finishes eating it.<!--SmashWiki is not speculative. Do not add unconfirmed explanations for this change.-->
**Although the official reason for this change is currently unknown, many players noticed that the steak in Steve's victory pose had an unintentionally phallic appearance, with journalists reporting on it both before and after it was removed. Phil Spencer, the head executive of Microsoft's Xbox division, was shown the pose and stated in response to the interviewer's speculations, "I assume that will be fixed."<ref>[https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/1319097009761112064 Stephen Totilo on Twitter]</ref>
**He is the second fighter in ''Ultimate'' to have their victory screens modified in some way via updates, the first being {{SSBU|Chrom}}'s victory theme being changed to fit the rest of the characters from ''Fire Emblem Awakening'' in [[List of updates (SSBU)#3.0.0|version 3.0.0]] of ''Ultimate''.
*Steve and {{SSBU|Byleth}} are the only characters in ''Ultimate'' whose alternate costumes are displayed alongside their default costumes on the [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site|official ''Ultimate'' site]], similarly to {{SSB4|Robin}}'s page on the [[Super Smash Bros. 4 Official Site|official ''SSB4'' site]].
*Many of Steve's animations and sounds are directly taken from existing ''Minecraft'' games and media:
**He is the only character to date with a unique [[tumbling]] animation, which is simply derived from his running animation, remaining upright; this reflects the way players are knocked back in ''Minecraft''. This also applies when he is [[star KO]]'d and during certain cinematic Final Smashes such as [[Triple Wolf]] and [[Wario-Man]].
**He falls to the side when getting KO'd by a weak attack in [[Stamina Mode]], [[crumpling]], or [[drowning]], resembling the death animations of said game.
**Steve's swimming animation is simply his walk animation slowed down, as in ''Minecraft''; his drowning animation reflects his "sprinting" underwater animation introduced in a 2018 update to ''Minecraft''.
**When falling [[asleep]], Steve places a red bed on the ground and proceeds to lie on it. When waking up, he collects it back in his inventory.
**If a [[perfect shield]] is performed, Steve will use a shield from ''Minecraft'' to block the attack.
**Steve's crouching and crawling animations resemble ''Minecraft''{{'}}s [https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Sneaking sneaking] mechanic. He also sneaks in his [[teetering]] animation, reflecting the fact that sneaking in ''Minecraft'' prevents the player from falling off blocks.
**When landing from a fall of sufficient distance (roughly 73 units or 7.3 blocks), the "taken damage" sound from ''Minecraft''{{'}}s fall damage mechanic plays, making him the only character with a unique long-distance fall sound. Unlike the original game, this cue is merely aesthetic.
**When eating, the eating sound effects from ''Minecraft'', including the burp, play. This makes Steve the second character to make a unique sound when eating, following fellow third-party character {{SSBU|Snake}}.
**Steve's clapping animation resembles the "simple clap" emote exclusive to the "Bedrock" Edition of ''Minecraft'', looped and with Steve's head facing the camera while his body faces away.
**Steve and Alex's eyes can blink, which was previously only present in the "Bedrock" Edition of ''Minecraft'' and in ''Minecraft Dungeons''. Otherwise, their facial expressions never change, even while [[asleep]]. The Zombie and Enderman do not blink.
**When climbing a {{b|ladder|stage element}}, Steve idly glides up and down it while emitting sounds identical to those made when climbing ladders in ''Minecraft''. When stationary on a ladder, he crouches, in reference to how sneaking lets the player stay in place on ladders in the game.
**Using Steve's tools while holding an item allows him to briefly dual wield them.
**When Steve's fishing rod enters a water surface, a water sound effect from ''Minecraft'' plays upon him retracting the grab.
*Steve's alternate costumes each consist of a [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/304966181746638848/765761871159754772/Screenshot_20201013-222402_Discord.jpg single texture taken from ''Minecraft''] and modified slightly for unknown reasons. This notably makes modifying them through [[file replacement]] extremely simple.
*Steve is the first playable third party character in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series to have originated from an indie game. In this case, ''Minecraft'' started development solely by {{s|wikipedia|Markus Persson}} during its inception. Before this, indie characters were often relegated to being Trophies, Spirits, Assist Trophies or Mii Costumes.
**However, at the time of his addition, ''Minecraft'' was no longer an indie title, but instead was a subsidiary game due to Microsoft purchasing Mojang in 2014.
*Steve is the only character to lack an [[idle pose]].
*Zombie and Enderman are the only alternate characters to lack fighter spirits.
*Much like {{SSBU|Roy}}'s sourspotted attacks, Steve's axe, pickaxe, and wooden or stone sword attacks use punching sound effects.
*Steve holds [[crate]]s, [[party ball]]s, [[barrel]]s, and [[Blast Box]]es in a similar position to the way Endermen carry blocks in ''Minecraft''.
*If Steve picks up an [[Assist Trophy]] whilst walking, he can continue walking with it until he stops or performs any other action such as jumping. He, {{SSBU|Mega Man}}, and {{SSBU|Min Min}} are currently the only characters who can walk with an Assist Trophy.
*The initial reveal of Steve on October 1st, 2020 led to an influx of logins on social media website Twitter, all of which were of users sharing their reaction to the news, which ended up causing the site's servers to overload and immediately crash. This is notable for being the first time the social media outlet experienced an outage since the death of popular singer Michael Jackson on June 29th, 2009.<ref>https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2020/oct/06/smash-steve-broke-twitter/</ref>
