'''Weight''' is a measurement of how much a [[character]] can resist [[knockback]]. Weight is one of several factors used in calculating the amount of knockback a character experiences. Characters with a higher weight (heavy) tend to suffer less knockback, and characters with a lower weight (light) tend to suffer more knockback, all other factors controlled. | '''Weight''' is a measurement of how much a [[character]] can resist [[knockback]].

[[File: | [[File:SSB4 Weight and Knockback graph.png|thumb|300px|right|A graph demonstrating how the rate of knockback increase is affected by weight, labeled with Bowser's and Jigglypuff's weights in SSB4]] | ||
Weight is in practice understood as how difficult it is to send a character flying away. In this sense, it is usually considered an advantage for a character to be heavy, as less knockback makes it more difficult to [[KO]] a character. Additionally, many [[throws]] [[Frame speed multiplier|take longer to execute]] on heavier characters, giving the opponent more time to properly react to throws and [[DI]] effectively. Because throwing heavier characters causes the throwing animation to continue longer once the target is let go, the viability of throw [[combo]]s may be affected; for example, {{SSBB|Mr. Game & Watch}}'s down throw-to-down smash combo isn't guaranteed on heavier characters who don't [[tech]] the throw; the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}' infinite [[chain grab]]s in ''Brawl'' are more difficult to perform on heavyweights; and in ''Melee'', {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} is not vulnerable to many of the [[up throw]] chain throws (such as from {{SSBM|Marth}}) that the [[space animal]]s are vulnerable to despite having equivalent falling speed. | |||
Lighter characters have a few advantages. Weight-sensitive [[platform]]s such as those in [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and [[Rainbow Cruise]] fall slower while holding less weight, making them safer to use for lighter characters. Many combos are less effective on lighter characters because their higher received knockback makes it easier to escape — these combos include some of {{SSBM|Fox}}'s [[waveshine]] combos in ''Melee'' and {{SSBB|King Dedede}}'s chaingrab in ''Brawl'', where characters below a certain weight usually receive enough knockback to escape. Finally, certain weight-based throws have hitboxes that appear for very short lengths of time, and if the target is very light, the animation may progress so quickly that the hitbox appears and vanishes in less than a frame without hitting — this causes the lightest characters to take less damage, notably with Bowser's down throw in NTSC ''Melee'' and Link's down throw in ''Brawl'', both of which miss their pre-throw hit on Jigglypuff. | |||
Heavier characters tend to have stronger attacks, longer [[range]], worse [[recovery]], bigger [[hitbox|hurtboxes]], and slower movement, while lighter characters tend to have weaker attacks, shorter range, better recovery, smaller hurtboxes, and faster movement. However, this is a very loose correlation that many characters defy in some way — Captain Falcon is heavy but [[dash]]es incredibly fast, Yoshi is heavy but rather weak for his weight, Wario is heavy but short and highly maneuverable, Zelda is light-medium with slow and strong attacks, Falco is light with a very high falling speed and lackluster vertical recovery, and Little Mac is light but is considered among the worst at recovering in ''[[SSB4]]''. | |||
In single player [[mode]]s, sometimes unnaturally high weight is introduced to challenge the player, such as when fighting [[Metal Mario]]; this is often paired with additional [[Armor|knockback resistance]], since even characters with infinite weight will still take knockback from any attack with a base knockback greater than 0. | |||
On an additional note, some attacks are weight independent, and will always act as if the target fighter's weight is set to 100; the amount of knockback dealt would remain consistent, no matter how light or heavy the target is. This is especially notable for attacks that have the [[bury]], [[paralyze]], or [[stun]] effects. However, other factors, such as knockback taken multipliers, and knockback resistance, would still affect the amount of knockback dealt. | |||

These values use a different scale than the later games - heavier characters have lower numbers, representing a direct multiplier in the knockback formula. For comparison purposes, the equivalent value in the newer system is also listed.[http://smashboards.com/threads/simple-facts-that-you-may-not-know.308210/page-16] | |||

== | ==Notes/Trivia== | ||
*According to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''{{'}}s Blue Smash Trophy of Mario, his mass is the standard upon which other Smash fighters are measured. While this is true in NTSC ''Melee'' (having a weight of 100), the PAL version dropped Mario's weight to 98, which was slightly below-average. This was carried over for future installments. | |||
*In each game, the [[enemy team]] all have the same weight as Mario, despite each being based on characters of different weights. | |||

Additionally, unlike Giga Bowser, Giga Mac can be affected by [[windbox]]es (but is still unaffected by regular knockback), making him the only transforming character who has a weight change that can affect gameplay outside of stage elements. | ||
* | *Jigglypuff is the lightest character in every ''Smash'' game except for ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate''; in ''Melee'' it is tied with Mr. Game and Watch and weighs more than Pichu while in ''Ultimate'' it weighs more than Pichu. | ||
