Currently, Kirby is ranked 26th in the G tier at the very bottom, an extreme drop from his 2nd position in ''Smash 64'' and his worst placement in the series | Currently, Kirby is ranked 26th in the G tier at the very bottom, an extreme drop from his 2nd position in ''Smash 64'' and his worst placement in the series. While he has several throw options into [[Kirbycide]] and a decent [[edgeguarding]] game, Kirby's [[approach]] and KO ability are among the worst in the game; slow attacks, a low [[air speed]], an ineffective [[projectile]] in [[Final Cutter]], and numerous other flaws both on the ground and in the air prevent Kirby from easily approaching enemies, and he struggles against almost all characters as a result of this. Kirby currently has terrible overall matchups, with seven matchups that are near unwinnable, and only two positive matchups (against {{SSBM|Bowser}} and {{SSBM|Roy}}), and even these can be disputed at length. | ||
