'''Crazy Hand''' ({{ja|クレイジーハンド}}, ''Kureijī Hando'') is [[Master Hand]]'s left hand counterpart first appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. While Master Hand's movements are very smooth and calm, Crazy Hand moves in erratic ways.  He is fought in ''Melee'' when [[Classic Mode]] is cleared on Normal level or higher in 18 minutes or less when Master Hand's health is reduced by half. He also appears in [[Event 50: Final Destination Match]].

'''Crazy Hand''' ({{ja|クレイジーハンド|Kureijī Hando}}, ''Crazy Hand'') is [[Master Hand]]'s left hand counterpart first appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. While Master Hand's movements are very smooth and calm, Crazy Hand moves in erratic ways.


Crazy Hand's basic appearance is exactly the same as Master Hand's (apart from being a left hand), but is more chaotic in general. He is impulsive and destructive. When preparing for an attack, Crazy Hand's movements are also different. When joined with Master Hand, they can perform several cooperative attacks. He, like his counterpart Master Hand, is always fought on a version of [[Final Destination (disambiguation)|Final Destination]].
Crazy Hand's basic appearance is exactly the same as Master Hand's (apart from being a left hand), but he is more chaotic in general, befitting his impulsive and destructive nature. When preparing for an attack, Crazy Hand's movements are also different. When joined with Master Hand, they can perform several cooperative attacks. He, like Master Hand, is always fought on a version of [[Final Destination (disambiguation)|Final Destination]].


Though he appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' during the [[Boss Battles]] mode, he does not actually appear as a [[boss]] in [[The Subspace Emissary]]. Despite this, his trophy, when arranging the collection by series, is listed in the "The Subspace Emissary" section. Aside from this, though, he merely reprises his role in Classic Mode, and has no relation to the SSE, despite the fact that Master Hand appears.
==Origin==
[[File:WhamBamRocksKSS.png|thumb|left|150px|Wham Bam Rock as it originally appeared in ''Kirby Super Star''.]]
While Crazy Hand as a character is unique to the ''Smash'' series, his attacks (as well as Master Hand's) are very similar to Wham Bam Rock's attacks in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]''. Wham Bam Rock performs a move that involves putting its hand over the player and making rocks fall. Crazy Hand does a move that is very similar, except that Crazy Hand's rocks explode with [[darkness]]. Both Wham Bam Rock and Master and Crazy Hand perform a move that involves "walking" across the stage to flick the player. They both will also try to grab on to the player and cause damage.

{{clrl}}


To fight him in Brawl's Classic Mode, the player must arrive at the final stage in 9 minutes or less with the difficulty level set to Hard or higher. He also appears as one of the many bosses in [[Boss Battles Mode]]. Boss Battles is the only time the Crazy Hand is fought separately and be faced without any special conditions. Crazy Hand is also the only boss that does not have to be fought in order to unlock Boss Battles, and is the only boss in the mode to not make an appearance in the Subspace Emissary.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
{{main|Crazy Hand (SSBM)}}
Crazy Hand is fought in ''Melee'' when {{SSBM|Classic Mode}} is cleared on Normal [[difficulty]] or higher in 5 minutes and 50 seconds or less, after Master Hand's health is reduced by half. He also appears in [[Event 50: Final Destination Match]] (referred to only as "the left", where both it and Master Hand are fought from the start.)


To fight him in SSB3DS's classic mode the player must reach the final branch with 3.0 intensity or higher, and then choose the black path.

{{main|Crazy Hand (SSBB)}}
Crazy Hand reprises his role at the end of {{SSBB|Classic Mode}}. To fight him, the player must arrive at the final stage in 9 minutes or less with the difficulty level set to Hard or higher. However, if the player encounters him (once the criteria is met), Crazy Hand appears in the final stage right away instead of reducing Master Hand's [[HP]] by half. Both Master Hand and Crazy Hand start with the same number of HP (dependent with the difficulty chosen). He also appears as one of the many bosses in [[Boss Battles Mode]], where this is the only time Crazy Hand is fought separately from Master Hand and can be faced without any special conditions.


{{incomplete}}
Unlike every other boss in ''Brawl'', Crazy Hand does not appear at all in [[The Subspace Emissary]] (unlike Master Hand, who appears prominently but is not fought). Despite this, his trophy, when arranging the collection by series, is listed in the "The Subspace Emissary" section. Crazy Hand is the only boss that does not have to be fought in order to unlock Boss Battles, and is the only boss in the mode to not make an appearance in the SSE.


{{EnemyHPTable}}
Brawl also gives Crazy Hand a more unique, higher-pitched voice than in Melee, where his voice was rather similar to that of Master Hand.

Note that none of the names are official. Crazy Hand can only be played via hacking with an [[Action Replay]]. All directions are pressed on the [[D-Pad]], not the [[Control Stick]]. Lastly, Crazy Hand can only be controlled by Player 4. Also note that some of Crazy Hand's moves (the one that Master Hand also has) have a second effect like freezing.

Crazy Hand once again reprises his role at the end of Classic Mode. To fight Crazy Hand in {{for3ds}}'s {{SSB4-3DS|Classic Mode}}, the player must reach the final branch while the difficulty is set to 3.0 [[Intensity]] or higher, and then choose the black path. On Intensity 8.0 and above, the black path is the only one available, so Crazy Hand is always fought. In {{forwiiu}}, the player will always fight Crazy Hand at the end of {{SSB4-Wii U|Classic Mode}} as long as the Intensity is 3.0 or higher. He can also be fought alone in [[Crazy Orders]].

==Attack Order (Brawl)==
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
===First Move===
{{main|Crazy Hand (SSBU)}}
[[File:CrazyHand3.jpg|thumb|190px|Crazy Hand's "Crawl" attack]]
[[File:SSBU Slaves of darkness.png|thumb|200px]]
[[File:WolfBurntSSBB.jpg|thumb|190px|Crazy Hand's first poke attack which burns players with darkness effect.]]
[[File:SSBU Dawn of Chaos.png|thumb|200px]]
*'''Bomb''': Crazy Hand arches with his fingers above the center of the stage, and drops bombs from his fingertips. Since Crazy Hand initiates the move only in the center of the stage and never moves during it, it is simple to evade by just staying from the stage center during the move.
Crazy Hand appears as the army led by [[Galeem]]'s dark counterpart, [[Dharkon]]. He also reprises his usual role as a boss in [[Classic Mode]]. For the first time in the series, Crazy Hand has the ability to face left. In the Final Realm of the Adventure, after Galeem and Dharkon have been defeated individually, the true Crazy Hand is found near Bayonetta, perpendicular to Master Hand near Palutena.  
*'''Crawl''': Crazy Hand "crawls" across the stage, damaging anyone he touches. Crazy Hand can be evaded by jumping over him or air dodging through him as he passes through.
*'''Palm smash''': Crazy Hand forms a fist, hovers above the player, and then smashes down with his palm. Semi-spikes struck opponents very powerfully, however just like in ''Melee'', this attack cannot hit airbone players unless they are close to the ground, which when combined with the long telegraphing of the move, leaves it easily evaded by just jumping into the air. Compared to Master Hand's version, Crazy Hand will fly up higher, making it more difficult to counterattack him during the move.
*'''Call for team attack''' Crazy Hand and Master Hand do a team attack.


===Second Move===
After defeating him and freeing him of Dharkon's control Crazy Hand flies in between Galeem and Dharkon and cracks open the reality between them. Following that he helps Master Hand fully break through to the final boss where the player faces both Galeem and Dharkon.
*'''Sweep''': Crazy Hand "sweeps" across the stage moderately fast, sweeping his hand three times in doing so. Causes electric damage, with the final hit dealing moderately high knockback. Can be evaded by rolling behind Crazy Hand.
*'''Poke''': Crazy Hand points at the player and follows them for a few seconds, before poking the player three times. The first poke deals dakrness damage, while the second poke  deals electric damage, and the final third poke freezes while dealing moderate vertical knockback. First poke, second poke, and third can be chained together, but can be DI'd out of before the final poke. Can be evaded by just moving away from Crazy Hand before he starts poking.
*'''Grab''': Crazy Hand follows the player around for a few seconds, and then attempts to grab the player. If successful, he then crushes them several times (which also inflicts the player with a [[flower]]), before tossing them back to the ground. The player can escape by mashing buttons. Compared to Master Hand's grab, it can deal much higher damage, with its flower dealing effect and the fact Crazy Hand squeezes players for longer, but it is no threat to KO the player unlike Master Hand's, as besides the longer squeezing giving them more time to escape, Crazy Hand will always throw the player to the ground.
*'''Call for team attack''': Does a team attack with Master Hand.


===Third Move===
In Classic Mode routes where Master Hand is the final boss, Crazy Hand will be fought alongside him if the player reaches the final stage with an Intensity of 7.0 or higher. In {{SSBU|Falco}} and {{SSBU|Ken}}'s routes, however, Crazy Hand is encountered as the primary Hand opponent, with Master Hand joining him in higher difficulties. Other characters fight both Hands despite any difficulty, they are: {{SSBU|Ice Climbers}}, {{SSBU|Mewtwo}}, {{SSBU|Chrom}}, {{SSBU|Meta Knight}}, {{SSBU|Pit}}, {{SSBU|Diddy Kong}}, {{SSBU|Ryu}}, {{SSBU|Incineroar}}, {{SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}}, {{SSBU|Byleth}}, {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}, {{SSBU|Pyra}}/{{SSBU|Mythra}} and {{SSBU|Sora}}, some of them have companies: Mewtwo with {{SSBU|Pikachu}}, Chrom with {{SSBU|Robin}}, Pit with {{SSBU|Dark Pit}}, Diddy Kong with {{SSBU|Donkey Kong}}, Ryu with Ken, Incineroar with {{SSBU|Greninja}}, and Byleth with {{SSBU|Marth}}, {{SSBU|Roy}}, {{SSBU|Ike}}, Robin and {{SSBU|Corrin}}.
*'''Ram''': Crazy Hand flies offscreen, and then reappears in the background flying at the player in a fist. While Crazy Hand follows the player on a horizontal level, he doesn't follow vertically, so a player can evade this by just jumping into the air a moderate distance.
{{clrl}}
*'''Crush''': Crazy Hand flies offscreen, and then comes crashing down trying to crush the player. Deals very high semi-spike knockback, but will not hit a player unless they are close to the ground, leaving it easily evaded by just jumping into the air.
*'''Jet''': Crazy Hand faces upward before flying offscreen, to then reappear in the background flying at the player in a spiral pattern. During the start up, touching Crazy Hand's wrist is a meteor smash, though this meteor smash is very weak and is no real threat to KO the player. The primary part of the move will deal very high vertical knockback, but like his Ram attack, Crazy Hand does not follow the player on a vertical level, making it easily evaded by just jumping into the air. When he reappears on the screen, the player will take very weak vertical knockback with electrical damage if they touch Crazy Hand right when he reappears.


===Fourth Move===
===Spirit===
*'''Seizure''': Crazy Hand lies down on the ground and has a violent spasm, damaging the player if they touch him. It only produces [[quake]] hitboxes, so it only damages opponents that are grounded, leaving Crazy Hand vulnerable to aerial assaults while using the move. In addition to the fact it can't hit aerial opponents, Crazy Hand will always do the move in the same spot, making it easily evaded by just moving away from Crazy Hand.
{|class="wikitable"
*'''Punch''': Crazy Hand flies up and hovers over the player in a fist, before punching down on them. Produces set meteor smash knockback if it strikes. Like Palm smash, it can only hit a player close to the ground, leaving it easily evaded by just jumping into the air as he uses the move.
! No. !! Image !! Name !! Type !! Class !! Slots
*'''Lasers''': Crazy Hand shoots laser beams from his fingertips and slowly moves across the screen. The lasers will deal a decent amount of damage (21%) each time a player makes contact with them, but will produce almost no knockback.

===Fifth Move===
! Max [[File:Equipment Icon Brawn Badge.png|20px|Attack]]
*'''Drill''': Crazy Hand spins upwards in a drill motion, flies above the screen, and then corkscrews down at the player. This is by far Crazy Hand's most difficult to evade attack; the only way to dodge it is to do a roll at the right time, but this will fail with most characters if their rolling dodge don't cover great distance, like {{SSBB|Lucario}}'s, due to a combination of how fast it comes down and its [[vacuum]] effect dragging nearby players in. It can be avoided by moving off the stage, but the move's long duration and large hitboxes can make it difficult to safely get back on stage without taking damage. Additionally, with how fast the attack activates, and with the initial hitbox it produces as it rises, the player may be unable to get offstage in time. Some characters can avoid this attack easily by using a special attack that moves character a considerable distance quickly, but this requires to be well timed. When trapped in the Drill, the attack is very difficult to SDI out of, ensuring players will take the attack's full remaining damage output. Compared to Master Hand's, Crazy Hand's comes down slightly faster, but deals less damage. However in ''Brawl'', the knockback of its final hit was reduced making this attack incapable of KOing, but its extremely high damage output (102% damage if all its hits connect) will put an undamaged player in KO range of the Hand's KOing moves on Intense difficulty if they take the full brunt of the attack, making it Crazy Hand's most dangerous move.

Note: This does not include moves that are automatically done together due to attack patterns.
|}
*'''Clap''': The Hands motion across the stage, before clapping many times. The initial hand motioning will put grounded players to sleep, ensuring they will get hit by the clapping. The claps hit the player towards the center of the stage, dealing high damage, with the final blow dealing especially high knockback (though it's possible to DI out before the final hit if the player avoids getting caught in the middle). Difficult to evade, as the initial hand motioning comes out quickly and can put the player to sleep before they can react, and the claps cover the entire stage, necessitating the player to quickly get offstage (though hanging the ledge will provide complete safety from the move).
*'''Double Punch''': The Hands motion across the stage, before quickly moving back and punching into each other. The initial hand motioning is indistinguishable from Clap, but it does not produce any hitboxes (thus players can safely detect which move it is by putting their shield up as the Hands motion, which if it does not hit their shield, indicates it is this move). While powerful if it strikes, it is very easy to evade, as the long telegraphing without the initial hitbox of Clap gives the player ample time to prepare to evade, and going offstage or jumping into the air will be sufficient to evade it.
*'''Fist grab''': Master Hand beckons to Crazy Hand, who then proceeds to punch Master Hand's palm. If a player is struck by Crazy Hand, they will take very strong vertical knockback. The long telegraphing and the blind spot behind Master Hand leaves the attack easily evaded however.

—Crazy Hand

Crazy Hand (クレイジーハンド, Crazy Hand) is Master Hand's left hand counterpart first appearing in Super Smash Bros. Melee. While Master Hand's movements are very smooth and calm, Crazy Hand moves in erratic ways.

Crazy Hand's basic appearance is exactly the same as Master Hand's (apart from being a left hand), but he is more chaotic in general, befitting his impulsive and destructive nature. When preparing for an attack, Crazy Hand's movements are also different. When joined with Master Hand, they can perform several cooperative attacks. He, like Master Hand, is always fought on a version of Final Destination.

Origin[edit]

Wham Bam Rock as it originally appeared in Kirby Super Star.

While Crazy Hand as a character is unique to the Smash series, his attacks (as well as Master Hand's) are very similar to Wham Bam Rock's attacks in Kirby Super Star. Wham Bam Rock performs a move that involves putting its hand over the player and making rocks fall. Crazy Hand does a move that is very similar, except that Crazy Hand's rocks explode with darkness. Both Wham Bam Rock and Master and Crazy Hand perform a move that involves "walking" across the stage to flick the player. They both will also try to grab on to the player and cause damage. [1]

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

Main article: Crazy Hand (SSBM)

Crazy Hand is fought in Melee when Classic Mode is cleared on Normal difficulty or higher in 5 minutes and 50 seconds or less, after Master Hand's health is reduced by half. He also appears in Event 50: Final Destination Match (referred to only as "the left", where both it and Master Hand are fought from the start.)

Trophy[edit]

Crazy Hand
Where the Master Hand loves to create, its alter ego is impulsive and destructive, consumed with that hollow feeling which comes from destroying one's own creations. The Crazy Hand appears when a player clears obstacles quickly and the Master Hand's power is low. You have only one chance to defeat the Crazy Hand.
Super Smash Bros. Melee (12/01)

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]

Main article: Crazy Hand (SSBB)

Crazy Hand reprises his role at the end of Classic Mode. To fight him, the player must arrive at the final stage in 9 minutes or less with the difficulty level set to Hard or higher. However, if the player encounters him (once the criteria is met), Crazy Hand appears in the final stage right away instead of reducing Master Hand's HP by half. Both Master Hand and Crazy Hand start with the same number of HP (dependent with the difficulty chosen). He also appears as one of the many bosses in Boss Battles Mode, where this is the only time Crazy Hand is fought separately from Master Hand and can be faced without any special conditions.

Unlike every other boss in Brawl, Crazy Hand does not appear at all in The Subspace Emissary (unlike Master Hand, who appears prominently but is not fought). Despite this, his trophy, when arranging the collection by series, is listed in the "The Subspace Emissary" section. Crazy Hand is the only boss that does not have to be fought in order to unlock Boss Battles, and is the only boss in the mode to not make an appearance in the SSE.

Brawl also gives Crazy Hand a more unique, higher-pitched voice than in Melee, where his voice was rather similar to that of Master Hand.

In Super Smash Bros. 4[edit]

Main article: Crazy Hand (SSB4)

Crazy Hand once again reprises his role at the end of Classic Mode. To fight Crazy Hand in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS's Classic Mode, the player must reach the final branch while the difficulty is set to 3.0 Intensity or higher, and then choose the black path. On Intensity 8.0 and above, the black path is the only one available, so Crazy Hand is always fought. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, the player will always fight Crazy Hand at the end of Classic Mode as long as the Intensity is 3.0 or higher. He can also be fought alone in Crazy Orders.

Also, once Master Hand loses a portion of his health on intensity level 6 or higher, Crazy Hand teleports out of the battle with his body rapped in a cloud of dark flames, while Master Hand's glove flails in a Crazy-hand like fashion and rips open.

Trophy[edit]

Crazy Hand's trophy appears in both versions of the game.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Main article: Crazy Hand (SSBU)
SSBU Slaves of darkness.png
SSBU Dawn of Chaos.png

Crazy Hand appears as the army led by Galeem's dark counterpart, Dharkon. He also reprises his usual role as a boss in Classic Mode. For the first time in the series, Crazy Hand has the ability to face left. In the Final Realm of the Adventure, after Galeem and Dharkon have been defeated individually, the true Crazy Hand is found near Bayonetta, perpendicular to Master Hand near Palutena.

After defeating him and freeing him of Dharkon's control Crazy Hand flies in between Galeem and Dharkon and cracks open the reality between them. Following that he helps Master Hand fully break through to the final boss where the player faces both Galeem and Dharkon.

In Classic Mode routes where Master Hand is the final boss, Crazy Hand will be fought alongside him if the player reaches the final stage with an Intensity of 7.0 or higher. In Falco and Ken's routes, however, Crazy Hand is encountered as the primary Hand opponent, with Master Hand joining him in higher difficulties. Other characters fight both Hands despite any difficulty, they are: Ice Climbers, Mewtwo, Chrom, Meta Knight, Pit, Diddy Kong, Ryu, Incineroar, Banjo & Kazooie, Byleth, Sephiroth, Pyra/Mythra and Sora, some of them have companies: Mewtwo with Pikachu, Chrom with Robin, Pit with Dark Pit, Diddy Kong with Donkey Kong, Ryu with Ken, Incineroar with Greninja, and Byleth with Marth, Roy, Ike, Robin and Corrin.
