'''Wolf''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project M]]''. He has been given better combo options than his ''Brawl'' version for his appearance in ''Project M''. He ranks 2nd out of 41 on the [[Project M#Tier list|official]] [[tier list]], being the only other character in the S tier, which is a noticeable improvement over his placement on the ''Brawl'' tier list, where he ranks 14th out of 38. | '''Wolf''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project M]]''.

Like the other [[space animals]], Wolf is a glass cannon. He has among the best movement speed in the game and many offensive tools such as his back aerial and forward aerial sourspot. He also has among the best vertical endurance in ''Project M'' due to being the heaviest of the three space animals (albeit still a lightweight) and having the fastest [[falling speed]] in ''Project M''. The latter point also grants him a useful [[SHFFL]]. Wolf also has many useful KO options such as his down and side smash attacks. His biggest strength, however, is his [[shine]]. It allows for deadly juggles like {{PM|Falco}}, which, when combined with his aforementioned useful offensive maneuvers, gives him some of the most versatile combos in the game. | Like the other [[space animals]], Wolf is a glass cannon.
