Samus is a heavy fighter who is unusually floaty, a characteristic defying those of her weight class. She utilizes a unique array of powerful projectiles in her arsenal, including [[Charge Shot]] beams, [[missile]]s, and [[bomb]]s. Additionally, new to Samus's ''Project M'' iteration, using her side taunt allows her to switch between either fire and ice elements (with the former being default). This mechanic changes the elements of her forward smash, forward air, up smash, down tilt, and missiles (unusually, it does not change the element for her bombs), which allows Samus to utilize a new set of skills that players are able to use in strategic methods. | Samus is a heavy fighter who is unusually floaty, a characteristic defying those of her weight class.
