- For the trophy, see Master Hand (trophy).
Master Hand (マスターハンド, Masutā Hando) is a glove-like entity that acts as the creator of the Super Smash Bros. universe. It is the final boss of 1-player mode in Super Smash Bros., and also the final boss of the Classic mode in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Appearances
Super Smash Bros.
In Super Smash Bros., Master Hand is the final opponent of the 1P Game. It resides in a level aptly called Master Hand's Residence by fans. It uses its size and shape to its advantage - it slaps, punches and flicks the player around. Master Hand cannot be KO'd by normal means; instead, he has 300 HP which must be depleted. Once 0 HP is reached, it explodes into the background, and the character is turned back into a doll.
Master Hand also appears in the opening cinematic. It positions two random characters in a stage resembling Peach's Castle, and apparently brings the dolls to life.
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Super Smash Bros. Melee sees Master Hand taking a similar role - it is the final boss of the 1-player Classic mode, and has a set HP which must be depleted to win. There are, however, a few changes made to it - its moveset is slightly altered, and its HP is altered based on the difficulty (for example, it only has 150 HP when fought on Very Easy mode, where SSB had it fixed to 300 regardless of the mode).
We are also introduced to Crazy Hand, Master Hand's left-handed alterego. When the two are on the field at the same time, they can perform powerful combination attacks. Crazy Hand appears when set conditions (the mode is Normal, Hard or Very Hard, the player has got to Final Destination in 15 minutes or less, and Master Hand's HP is 150 or lower).
The two Hands also appear in Event Match 50: Final Destination Match, where they must be defeated simultaneously.
Master Hand does not appear in the opening cinematic, though its trophy elaborates its role in the Super Smash Bros. universe.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Master Hand has not been confirmed to appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. With the availablity of the Classic Mode, it is almost likely that he will return to take up his role as the final boss.
Other appearances
Master Hand and Crazy Hand also appear in the GBA game Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. Master Hand is a sub-boss and they are both the area boss of Candy Constellation, and both must be defeated simultaneously (a la Final Destination Match). Absorbing Master Hand grants Kirby the Smash ability, which gives him his Smash moveset.
As a character
Though there are several so-called "cheats" that supposedly allow Master Hand to be played as a normal character, all of them are false - the only method of controlling Master Hand is through a cheating device such as a GameShark or Action Replay. As expected, playing as Master Hand causes a few problems - it can cause random crashes, and depleting its HP freezes the game.
None of the move names are official.
Super Smash Bros. moveset
Note that Master Hand's moves will automatically target the highest-numerical player other than itself (Player 1 or 2 in most cases)
