Announced at [[E3 2001]], '''Kirby''' ({{ja|カービィ|Kābī}}, ''Kirby'') is a [[starter character]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.  Although tier-wise, he was the second-to-top character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' topped only by {{SSB|Pikachu}}, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', he has been severely [[nerfed]].

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. This is also the most any character has dropped in the entire ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. 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.
