According to [[character matchup (SSBB)|the current SmashBoards matchup chart for ''Brawl'']], Fox's matchup spread has the seventeenth highest unweighted rank and has a weighted total of -58, seventeenth highest overall. Fox has good matchups as a result. He is also soft countered by seven characters and even with eight characters. He [[soft counter]]s ten characters, [[counter (matchup)|counter]]s seven characters, and hard counters only {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}. Fox is notably hard countered by {{SSBB|Pikachu}} and {{SSBB|Sheik}} as they can take advantage of his extremely high [[gravity]]. Pikachu can perform a "[[0-death]]" [[chain grab]] on him by using its down throw to rack up damage in excess of 100%, then using a [[Thunderspike]] to KO, while Sheik can rack up 50%+ damage with her forward tilt, which can then lead into an up smash for a KO. In addition, the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} also hard counter Fox, as he lacks safe options to [[approach]] without getting [[grab]]bed. On the positive side, Fox wins against King Dedede due to the former’s Blaster forcing Dedede to approach while also taking advantage of the latter’s slow speed. Fox is also too light for King Dedede to chain grab, removing one of King Dedede's strongest tools in the matchup. He also has a relatively good matchup against {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, being able to counter his strong recovery using his vertical attacking prowess, although Meta Knight's superior frame data, disjointed range and powerful aerial game/specials still give him a slight edge over Fox in the matchup.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZx5Ase4aHA</ref> Fox's amazing speed and effective KOing options allows him to counter many characters that are below him on the tier list.
