===Tier placement and history===
Players almost immediately saw Kirby's improvements from ''Melee'' (which included a stronger aerial game, grabs, and a more reliable recovery) and combined with the slower pace of the game to which he can keep up with, he was ranked 14th on Brawl's first tier list, and then rose to 13th place on the second and third tier lists. However, due to characters of higher tiers having more prominent strengths, and the flaws of Kirby's poor endurance and susceptibility to getting camped, he dropped to 16th in the fourth one, 19th in the sixth edition, and to 20th in the seventh and eighth versions. Kirby’s merely average playerbase and poor matchups against top-tiers resulted in him seeing rare use in top-level play; however, Kirby’s traits were still a significant step up from ''Melee'', which allowed him to finally allow his strengths to be put to full use and achieve decent success from Brawl’s competitive lifespan.
