Wolf is ranked 21st out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the A tier. This is a moderate improvement over his 14th out of 38 placement in ''Brawl''. Wolf is an all-around fighter with many different playstyles to choose from. He has a solid fundamental combo game with up throw and down throw as good combo starters. His moveset offers a lot of versatility, with his tilts functioning as safe pokes or kill options and his smash attacks as solid finishers. His aerials are all useful for both starting and extending combos, as well as edgeguarding. His back aerial, in particular, is one of the strongest in the game when sweetspotted and can be confirmed from a forward aerial. His specials are also crucial to his gameplan: his {{b|Blaster|Wolf}} is a strong projectile that can force approaches and apply chip damage from a distance, acting as his primary tool in neutral, [[Wolf Flash]] and [[Fire Wolf]] offer quick recovery to the stage and serve as powerful finishers, and his {{b|Reflector|Wolf}} is effective for extending combos as well as serving as his primary defense against zoning. Wolf also has excellent air mobility, allowing him to chase his opponents in the air with ease. | Wolf is ranked 21st out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the A tier.

Despite all these strengths, Wolf has some weaknesses. Wolf is a fast-faller middleweight, which makes him fairly easy to combo despite having a frame 2 air dodge. His recovery is also fairly linear and easy to intercept as it gets 2 framed fairly easily or loses to counterattacks which can leave vulnerable to gimps and edgeguards. While Wolf has good range in many of his attacks, he can have trouble against characters who have longer disjoints than him. Finally, Wolf can sometimes struggle taking stocks at higher percents, as his | Despite all these strengths, Wolf has some weaknesses.

Overall, Wolf has a solid fundamental gameplan for players to pick up. He functions like a glass cannon, being able to dish out damage with a strong neutral and advantage while having poor offstage survivability, struggling taking stocks from time to time, and being easy to juggle.

Wolf has attained a lot of representation across the board through ''Ultimate'''s lifespan. He was among the most-played characters in the early metagame, with {{Sm|Zackray}} representing him greatly in the early metagame while several top players had a pocket or co-main Wolf. Despite a fair decline in the post-pandemic metagame, he is still relatively popular, piloted by loyal Wolf mains such as {{Sm|Atelier}}, {{Sm|Jakal}}, and {{Sm|Ouch!?}}. | ||
