'''Wario''' ({{ja|ワリオ|Wario}}, ''Wario'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. He was officially revealed on June 12th, 2018 alongside {{SSBU|Little Mac}} and the rest of the returning roster. Wario is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #30]].

As in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', {{s|mariowiki|Charles Martinet}}'s portrayal of Wario from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' was repurposed for ''Ultimate''.<!--Do not add that this is the last Smash Bros. game where Charles Martinet voices Wario. Besides the fact this isn't done for other characters' pages, Jigglypuff and Lucina still use their voice clips from Rachael Lillis and Laura Bailey respectively in the Smash series instead of their current actors, so it's still possible for Martinet's voice to be reused in future Smash games-->

 

 

 

Overall, Wario's strengths largely overshadow his weaknesses. Although very popular in the early metagame, subsequent nerfs via patch updates shrank his playerbase at a top level. However, he remained a viable character with decent representation, in particular amassing consistently high results from {{Sm|Glutonny}},  Europe’s best and one of the best ''Ultimate'' players in the world.

Wario must then be defeated on [[WarioWare, Inc.]] (the [[Ω form]] is used in World of Light).

Wario is a short [[weight|heavyweight]] character with a great air game and surprisingly fantastic movement in the air. He boasts the 8th fastest [[air speed]] in the game, in addition to being tied for the 2nd best [[air acceleration]]. Wario also sports an above average [[falling speed]] and the 26th highest [[gravity]], which alongside the previous attributes gives him an amazing aerial prowess despite having low [[jump]]s. However, his grounded mobility pales in comparison, as his dashing speed and traction are average at best, and his walking speed is the 12th slowest in the game. Using his high mobility and versatile [[aerial attack]]s, Wario is able to dip in and out of the fray to bait attacks and punish. Wario's attacks in general also tend to be disjointed, as his hands don't have a hurtbox. He's also fairly hard to hit since he's relatively nimble and short for a heavy character, though fairly wide, meaning he can still be vulnerable to combos and juggles.

Furthermore, Wario boasts strong aerials, with his down, and back aerials being potent kill moves, while the up aerial is a highly damaging juggling and combo extension tool, with limited killing ability as well. Thanks to ''Ultimate''{{'}}s universal 3-frame jumpsquat, he can finally utilize his forward and neutral aerials as fast moves that can combo and pressure his opponents. Wario's air control and quick aerials also make him very effective at edgeguarding.

Wario's ground game contrasts with his air game in that it focuses more on power than speed. His forward tilt and forward smash are among the strongest in the cast, although both are rather slow, and the latter is best suited for hard reads. His up and down tilts are great combo tools that could potentially lead into kill moves, and his new shoulder tackle dash attack is both extremely fast in terms of startup and one of the strongest dash attacks in the game.

Wario's special moves are also very unorthodox, and they demand practice to be usable at their highest potentials. [[Chomp]] is one of the best [[command grab]]s in the game, having deceptively long [[range]] and decent startup. It heals Wario if it connects, can effectively cover certain [[edge recovery|edge recoveries]] and even kill at high percents, negate certain attacks such as [[Wonderwing]], and [[absorb]] many projectiles, often with the benefit of further [[healing]] him and slightly increasing the [[charge]] of his [[Wario Waft]]. His Waft is his most significant move because, with time, it is a highly damaging kill move with an extremely fast startup. With Waft in his arsenal, any match can be turned around with the right read. [[Wario Bike]] gives Wario an unorthodox approach option that covers for his fairly slow ground movement, and the bike itself continues to move forward and hit opposing fighters even after Wario dismounts it. This gives him a large pseudo-projectile which can apply pressure when used effectively, but the bike has a respawn time which prevents this from being used as a normal projectile. It can be used to surprise unsuspecting players as an approach tool that can blow past some projectiles, dismounted and thrown like an item with kill power, a very effective recovery tool, and a way for Wario to heal and charge his Waft when he eats it. On the flip side, Wario cannot shield or dodge while on the bike and is vulnerable, opponents can throw it right back at him, and if it's destroyed, he has to wait six seconds before using it again, which can leave him helpless while recovering as his up special, the [[Corkscrew]] is rather lackluster as a recovery on its own (although it is a decent out-of-shield option as it is his fastest recovery move).

 

All in all, Wario is a quite mobile and versatile heavyweight brawler that rewards patient players who know how to use his movement and signature Waft to their fullest potentials. His damage-racking ability and kill power also rewards players heavily for finding creative ways to get around his rather poor range and lack of a proper projectile, and his versatile options and movement give players just the tools to do it.

Possibly due to his lower tier status in ''Smash 4'' (41st out of 55 characters), Wario has been significantly buffed in his transition to ''Ultimate''. His combo game has been strengthened drastically, and the changes to gameplay mechanics benefit both the aggressive and patient sides of his playstyle.

Wario has received both direct and indirect changes that grant him a much more dangerous offensive game, which he previously did not boast about in previous installments. His [[neutral aerial]] has been altered, possessing more range, both hits lingering for much longer, and the move now having an extremely lenient amount of ending lag of only four frames; while [[up tilt]] has had its knockback reduced to the point that, despite losing all of its KO power, has gained drastically more combo potential at low to mid-percentages. These two moves are now some of the game's best combo starters, with their late hits leading into a repertoire of moves even at high percentages. The power of his moveset has also been strengthened overall; most notably, his new [[forward tilt]], [[back aerial]] and new [[dash attack]] all deal greater knockback; the former also has more range that's disjointed, allowing it to [[edge|2 frame punish]] with more ease when angled, and the latter can be used as an effective [[tech-chasing]] tool. [[Chomp]] now has actual KO potential and heals damage from Wario when biting an opponent or eating projectiles, overall improving his already good survivability. [[Wario Bike]] now possesses actual knockback, allowing it to be used situationally as a projectile.

 

 

In spite of this, Wario did receive a few notorious nerfs to his best moves in ''SSB4''. Wario Bike, similarly to its ''Brawl'' incarnation, can no longer be used immediately after despawning or being destroyed, forcing Wario to wait six seconds before it can be used again, which limits Wario's recovery should he end up offstage while its cooldown is in effect. [[Forward throw]], previously his only throw with consistently good KO potential, is much weaker due to its redistributed damage output; this hinders his grab game, as he no longer has any reasonably viable kill throws, and forces him to rely on Chomp to KO an opponent. Finally, game updates have caused Wario Waft's higher levels of charge to possess slower startup, impairing their usage as standalone moves such as out of shield, though the move still retains its fear factor through Wario's newfound combo game allowing it to confirm into it. Wario also retains a few weaknesses from ''SSB4'', notably a vulnerability to camping.

 

Overall, Wario has become a more reliable "lightning bruiser", with an intrincate combo game that can lead into devastatingly low percentage KOs as well as having more reliable kill power at high percentages, though at the cost of a few of his tools from the previous game being toned down. Game updates have watered down a bit the effectiveness of Wario's kit, but they haven't dramatically impacted his viability. All in all, his buffs outweigh his nerfs, and he is a much better character in stark contrast to his mediocre ''SSB4'' iteration.

Wario received buffs, nerfs and a few glitch fixes, but was nerfed overall. Update 2.0.0 made Wario grab the ledge sooner after using down aerial. Update 3.0.0 brought slight buffs to Chomp, increasing its swallow box size and giving it less ending lag after eating a small projectile. 3.0.0 also made it so Wario would flash yellow when Wario Bike was ready to use again. Update 8.0.0 fixed Wario's forward throw so that the hitbox no longer blatantly misses characters like Ganondorf, and lowered the ending lag when Wario ate food using Chomp. Update 9.0.0 buffed Corkscrew so that now it links more reliably and deals more damage overall.

 

 

 

While Wario was made a somewhat less effective character overall, it was not enough to massively dent Wario's status and prowess in competitive play, and Wario is still seen as a top tier character with fantastic results to this day.

|neutralname=Fist ({{ja|げんこつ|Genkotsu}}) / Jaw Smash ({{ja|あごくだき|Ago Kudaki}})

|neutral1dmg=5%

|neutral2dmg=7%

|neutraldesc=A downward punch and a uppercut. Among one of the worst neutral attacks in the game, due to its slow startup (frame 8) and lack of range, although it provides more reward than down tilt at lower percentages since down tilt cannot combo reliably until then.

|ftiltname=Slap ({{ja|ひっぱたき|Hippataki}})

|ftiltdesc=A quick, heavy-handed slap. The move can be angled, has considerable range and is a versatile kill option at the ledge, with the downward-angled variant hitting every single ledge hang. Also disjointed due to his hand not possessing a hurtbox and a big hitbox that reaches far from the hand.

|utiltname=Banzai Hit ({{ja|ばんざいヒット|Banzai Hitto}})

|dtiltname=Cockroach Crusher ({{ja|ゴキブリつぶし|Gokiburi Tsubushi}})

|dtiltdesc=Wario violently pokes the ground with his index finger, damaging opponents as he does so. It provides very little knockback and can combo into aerials and ground moves, most notably dash attack. It also has long horizontal range and provides disjoint due to the hands lacking a hurtbox, although the hitbox itself is very narrow and can miss opponents that are even slightly above it.

|dashname=Shoulder Tackle ({{ja|ショルダータックル|Shorudā Takkuru}})

|dashdesc=Wario performs his signature {{iw|mariowiki|Dash Attack}} from the {{iw|mariowiki|Wario Land|series}} series. A powerful kill move with extremely short startup on frame 5. The late hit is weaker but launches opponents at an upward angle, where Wario can potentially follow up with a juggle situation. The early hit has a sourspot inside Wario's body that is hard to hit and deals 5%. It has long range due to Wario's momentum as he charges forward, allowing it to cross-up shields.

|fsmashname=Full-Power Back Knuckle ({{ja|全力バックナックル|Zenryoku Bakku Nakkuru}})

|fsmashdesc=Wario winds back greatly with his fist, and delivers an enormous backhanded punch. Nearly the same range as his forward tilt, with a large hitbox that goes over Wario's fist. It has high ending lag and the slowest startup of Wario's smash attacks, but is very powerful. The winding back can allow moves to whiff, thus being punished by the attack. Due to coming out on frame 18 and having 46 frames of ending lag, it is very punishable if missed.

|usmashname=Big Head ({{ja|ビッグヘッド|Biggu Heddo}})

|dsmashname=Wario Spin ({{ja|ワリオスピン|Wario Supin}})

|dsmashdesc=Spins on the ground thrice, bashing foes with his head. The move consists of three hits, though only one hit can connect. While the first hit is capable of KO'ing at high percents, its power is very low for a smash attack while subsequent hits are even weaker. Hits most ledge hangs, although it possesses high ending lag, and the poor range makes it an unsafe move to use for the most part, although it is Wario's fastest smash attack at 8 frames. Due to the move's weak power, poor range, high ending lag, and being extremely unsafe on shield, it is one of the worst down smashes in the game as it carries very high risk while offering very low reward in return.

|nairname=Overweight Body ({{ja|メタボボディ|Metabo Bodi}})

|fairname=Pig's Foot Kick ({{ja|とんそくキック|Tonsoku Kikku}})

|fairdesc=A quick kick forwards. The first few frames do more damage and knockback. Low knockback and poor range, lacking a hitbox on the tip of the foot, but starts up very fast, making it useful for gimping or escaping pressure, as well as being a decent poking tool. The late hit can lock and also combos easily into other aerials at low percents. It autocancels in a short hop. It may be based on his aerial kick in {{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64 DS}}.

|bairname=Falling Headbutt ({{ja|たおれずつき|Taore Zutsuki}})

|uairname=Hand Slap ({{ja|ハンドパッチン|Hando Patchin}})

|uairdesc=Wario claps his hands and feet together in mid-air. His strongest aerial damage-wise with the best vertical knockback as well. A potent combo starter. If used after a fast fall, it can lead to an aerial and Wario Waft at low-mid percents. It also possesses a large hitbox and is disjointed due to the hands not having a hurtbox. Fast for its power, coming out on frame 8, but has 38 frames of ending lag, which can make it punishable.

|dairname=Upside-Down Drill ({{ja|さかさまドリル|Sakasama Doriru}})

|grabname=Grab ({{ja|つかみ|Tsukami}})

|grabdesc=Reaches out with one hand.

|pummelname=Grab Poke-Poke ({{ja|つかみつんつん|Tsukami Tsuntsun}})

|pummeldesc=Pokes the opponent with his index finger. Slow but strong.

|fthrowname=Heavy Buttocks ({{ja|ヘビーどんけつ|Hebī Donketsu}})

|bthrowname=Wild Swing Ding ({{ja|ジャイアントスイング|Jaianto Suingu}}, ''Giant Swing'')

|uthrowname=Double Punch ({{ja|ダブルパンチ|Daburu Panchi}})

|dthrowname=Butt Press ({{ja|しりプレス|Shiri Puresu}})

|floorfdesc=Wario gets up and pokes his finger both forwards and backward.

|ssdesc=Wario climbs aboard his trademark Wario Bike and races around the stage, damaging opponents in his path. During this, from frame 1, Wario gains a small amount of knockback-based [[armor]], able to take up to 20 units of [[knockback]]. Tilting the opposite direction on the ground will make him turn around, dealing damage and killing at high percents, and tilting in the air can adjust the angle of the Wario Bike and his jump afterward. Holding up will produce a wheelie, and pressing down during a wheelie makes the bike perform an extremely powerful ground slam. Just like in previous games, Wario can taunt on the bike.

After dismounting the bike, Wario can destroy it, throw it at opponents, or eat it with Chomp. The bike has 18 HP and is unaffected by the [[1v1 multiplier]]. When thrown, the Wario Bike can launch opponents a fair distance, even KO'ing them at high percents. In the air, the bike gives a small initial vertical hop along with a free jump via dismounting it.

|usdesc=Wario launches himself into the air, hitting enemies multiple times while spinning. The final hit has decent diagonal knockback with the hands, KO'ing at high percents. Wario's body has a hitbox that launches up, although is very difficult to hit due to the hand hitboxes taking priority. The move can be steered diagonally left or right.

|dsdesc=Flatulence that grows in strength and knockback the longer it goes unused. Its charge cannot be lost in any way without using the move itself. By Chomping items, the Wario Waft charges faster by 1.5 seconds. There are 4 levels of charge, all with varying effects: at no charge, the waft will always trip opponents but deals no damage and is the slowest waft (frame 16), the second level is the second slowest (frame 10), the third level (half-charged) is the fastest (frame 8) and has good KO potential, and the fully charged waft deals the most damage and knockback, has a huge hitbox below and super armor (frame 4-13), and also sends Wario flying upwards with a headbutt that has equally powerful KO potential, although is slower than the third level of charge (frame 12). If the fully charged waft is used near the upper blast line, Wario will be KO'd by the upper blast line.

|fsdmg= 10% (tackle), 20.8% (successive hits; 1.3% each), 12% (fart), 10% (release), 52.8% (total)

*'''Up taunt''': Laughs so hard that his jaw unhinges, then forces his mouth shut with his hands.

*'''Down taunt''': Faces the screen and shouts "Wah!" three times, with the third "Wah!" having the most enthusiasm. For each "Wah!" Wario holds up three fingers forming a "W" (his initials), first with his left hand, then his right, then both hands simultaneously.

*Stretches his arms, fists clenched.

*Scratches his rear. Based on his idle animation from ''Wario World''.

SSBUWarioIdle1.gif|Wario first idle pose.

SSBUWarioIdle2.gif|Wario second idle pose.

*'''Up:''' Spins around with his motorcycle, stops while facing the screen saying "Yes!", plucks the end of his mustache, and holds up three fingers in the shape of a W.

*'''Right:''' Briefly points, laughs gloatingly, and then falls over, rolling on his back.

*{{Sm|Abadango|Japan}} - Known for having a wide variety of characters and used Wario in his lineup in the latter half of 2019. He was one of the best Wario players from Japan during this time, most notably winning the major {{Trn|Umebura SP 4}} primarily using Wario, defeating {{Sm|KEN}} and {{Sm|Kameme}} along the way, and placing 5th at {{Trn|Smash Factor 8}} with mostly Wario and 9th at {{Trn|EVO 2019}} with solo-Wario.

*{{Sm|crêpe salée|France}} - The second-best Wario player in Europe, co-maining the character alongside {{SSBU|Steve}} since 2023. He notably defeated {{Sm|Zomba}} with Wario at {{Trn|Tera}}, ultimately placing 13th, and has also placed highly at several European events such as 7th at {{Trn|Tech Republic VI}}. He is the third Wario player ranked in the top 100 in the post-online metagame, ranking 99th on the [[LumiRank 2023]].

*{{Sm|Glutonny|France}} - The best Wario player of all time and one of the best ''Ultimate'' players of all-time. He has won majors thoughout all of competitive ''Ultimate'', including {{Trn|Albion 4}}, {{Trn|Pound 2022}}, and {{Trn|Tera}}.

*{{Sm|Huto|Japan}} - The best Wario player in Japan in the post-online metagame. He has some of Wario's best results outside of Glutonny during this time, most notably 5th at the supermajor {{Trn|Kagaribi 7}} and 7th at the majors {{Trn|Kagaribi 3}} and {{Trn|Seibugeki 12}}. However he is generally inconsistent, and as such has not be ranked as high, with his highest being 58th on the [[OrionRank Ultimate: Eclipse]].

*{{Sm|kameme|Japan}} - One of the best Wario players in Japan in the early metagame, using Wario as a counterpick for {{SSBU|Mega Man}}. He won the supermajor {{Trn|Umebura Japan Major 2019}} and the major {{Trn|2GG: SwitchFest 2019}} using Wario in crucial sets. He dropped Wario in the post-online metagame and has only pulled out the character on occasion..

*{{Sm|loaf|USA}} - The best Wario player in North America in the post-online metagame following his 13th-place finish at the supermajor {{Trn|Riptide}}. He also has a strong resume of regional and superregional placements, including 4th at {{Trn|Dragun House Monthly (December Edition 2023)}} defeating {{Sm|MuteAce}} and {{Sm|Kurama}}, 7th at {{Trn|The Big House 11}}, and 9th at {{Trn|GENESIS: BLACK at Guildhouse}} defeating {{Sm|Umeki}}.

*{{Sm|Tweek|USA}} - The best Wario player in the world in the early metagame. He is the first Wario player to win a major, doing so at {{Trn|Let's Make Moves}}, and has won multiple other majors with Wario in 2019. He dropped Wario from his lineup in 2021, although he occasionally pulls out Wario as a counterpick with little success.

*{{Sm|Zackray|Japan}} - Used Wario alongside a variety of other characters. Although he used Wario to win a few crucial sets in 2019, his most notable Wario usage was in 2021, where he co-mained Wario alongside {{SSBU|Joker}} to win the {{Trn|Eastern Powerhouse Invitational FINAL}}, and also primarily used Wario to place 4th at the major {{Trn|Kagaribi 3}}.

Nerfs to Wario's up tilt and waft hindered several of his setups into Waft, making it harder to hit compared to before. In addition, metagame shifts were also less favorable towards Wario as more characters with an oppressive gameplan became more common in competitive play. The nerfs and metagame shifts led to a noticeable decline in Wario's top level representation as many of his veteran players dropped the character, most notably Tweek. As such, Wario's position in the metagame began to fall as the community agreed that Wario was not as strong as he once was. On the other hand, many players pointed out how Glutonny's performances, despite fluctuating from time-to-time, were overall just as good if not better than his earlier results, proving that Wario's nerfs were not as severe as once perceived. In addition, newer Wario players also rose into the spotlight, most notably {{Sm|Huto}} in Japan, {{Sm|loaf}} in North America, and {{Sm|crêpe salée}} in Europe. As such, Wario remained a viable pick in the metagame, and was ranked 24th on the first tier list as a high tier and 20th on the second tier list in the middle of A-tier; although Wario was not as prevalent as the early metagame, dedicated mains have continued to keep Wario's representation afloat in the current metagame.

Wario's default fighter spirit can be obtained by completing {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}. It is also available periodically for purchase in the shop for 300 Gold, but only after Wario has been unlocked. Unlocking Wario 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. His classic outfit has a fighter spirit of its own, available through the shop. Each fighter spirit has an alternate version that replaces them with their artwork in ''Ultimate''.

Wario also makes an appearance as a legend-class primary spirit as his alter ego, Wario-Man.
