==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
Kirby has been considerably nerfed in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4''. Most of his issues in ''Brawl'' were not only retained but worsened and he also suffers from new weaknesses. Kirby's already mediocre range has been reduced further, with his feet becoming smaller and several general nerfs to hitbox sizes. This makes it even easier for opponents to wall out Kirby especially with the cast having greater range overall. Kirby's air mobility as also taken a hit as his [[air acceleration]] is lower, and unlike most returning veterans, his [[air speed]] has been decreased, which hindering both his recovery and ability to escape aerial pressure. As with his transition from each new Smash game as well as with most of the returning veterans, Kirby's damage output has been decreased. Some of Kirby's moves have also seen changes which greatly hinder their utility, with forward aerial having more ending lag and no longer autocanceling in a short hop due to a combination of its autocancel window being unchanged and Kirby's higher gravity and lower jumps, and dash attack and connecting less reliably due to its much shorter range, but the attacks that were affected the most were down throw and aerial [[Hammer Flip]], losing most of their previous utility:  the former has lost all of its followup potential due to its more unfavorable angle and increased knockback, while the latter has much more startup lag and has lost its recovery and edgeguarding potential, as to it's no longer being a semispike and now stalls Kirby's horizontal momentum instead of his vertical momentum.

''Smash 4''{{'}}s adjusted mechanics have both helped and hindered Kirby. The changes to [[hitstun canceling]] overall help Kirby, strengthening his ability to combo opponents. It does, however, make Kirby slightly easier to combo himself, especially due to his increased [[weight]], [[fall speed]] and [[gravity]]. Without the ability to [[momentum cancel]], Kirby's already poor endurance has been further reduced, although he had poor momentum canceling in ''Brawl'', and his higher weight somewhat compensates for it. The inclusion of [[rage]] further exacerbates this issue, and while it improves Kirby's own KO potential, his poor endurance combined with his lack of a ladder combo or early kill confirm prevents him from making great use of the mechanic. The changes to aerial [[grab release]]s, however, now make him much less vulnerable to those kinds of followups.

Kirby has seen some buffs, however. His considerably faster [[dash]]ing speed improves his approach, while some less reliable moves like Inhale and down aerial have been given new utility, with the former being faster and the latter connecting better due to using the autolink angle and its landing hit has less knockback and launches higher, making it better for combos, and forward and back throw are also more useful for combos due to the former's new angle and reduced ending lag, and the latter also has received KO potential thanks to its altered knockback, increasing its versatility overall. Other attacks, namely his up smash, down smash, back aerial, back throw and up throw, were given more KO power – and this can be better taken advantage of in the new environment of ''Smash 4'', in the absence of momentum cancelling and the presence of rage. His Hammer Flip now can be charged, has more range, no longer has sourspots and Kirby can move and jump while charging the attack.

Overall, while Kirby still retains most of the strengths he had in ''Brawl'' including his solid combo ability and KO potential for his character archetype, his weaknesses were amplified and he gained new weaknesses most notably, his reduced range and aerial mobility. While the changes to the game's mechanics benefit him overall, they do not aid him as much as some of the other returning veterans. As a result, Kirby is significantly worse than in ''Brawl''.

An effective combo starter on grounded opponents and, due to the last hit being a weak meteor smash, it is a useful edge-guarding option, especially since its low ending lag makes it relatively safe to use off-stage. It can even lead into a [[footstool jump]] on fast-fallers and heavyweights. While it has the highest amount of start-up lag out of Kirby's aerials due to coming out on frame 18, it can be auto-canceled on landing, giving Kirby a very large window to safely land while tumbling.

===Tier placement and history===
Due to the considerable nerfs Kirby received in his transition from ''Brawl'', he has always been considered a non-viable character within the ''SSB4'' metagame, even in spite of game updates noticeably buffing him. This has been due to his only success occurring at local tournaments, whereas his results at regional and national tournaments have been very sparse. Many smashers also took note of Kirby's overall poor matchup spread as characters like with large disjoints, and strong good kill power ({{SSB4|Cloud}} being a primary example) as well as zoning characters with effective projectiles ({{SSB4|Pac-Man}}, {{SSB4|Mega Man}}, {{SSB4|Toon Link}} and {{SSB4|Villager}} being good examples) do very well against him. These aspects culminated with Kirby being placed at 33rd on the first [[tier list]] as the 2nd highest low tier character.
Kirby did not fare well after the next updates as characters like {{SSB4|Marth}}, {{SSB4|Lucina}}, {{SSB4|Duck Hunt}}, {{SSB4|Shulk}}, {{SSB4|Link}} and {{SSB4|Mewtwo}} who were initially considered to be worse than Kirby proved to not only become better than him, but proved to be very troublesome matchups as well due to them having excellent tools to prevent Kirby from approaching. The release of {{SSB4|Cloud}} and {{SSB4|Corrin}} also hurt him since they too proved to be tough matchups for Kirby. This resulted in Kirby's already scarce results to become even worse than before.
Kirby would then drop to 41st on the second tier list, and eventually to 47th on the third tier list, with the latter drop being tied with {{SSB4|Pit}} and {{SSB4|Yoshi}}'s for the second largest between the second and third tier lists. However, {{Sm|Komota}} later scored an upset by defeating {{Sm|Ally}} at [[Frostbite 2017]] and placing 33rd at said tournament. Due to this, his tier placement has been widely debated, with some players believing he should be placed slightly higher due to niche matchups against much higher tiered characters, such as {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}} and {{SSB4|Fox}}. However, due to his continually sparse results after Frostbite 2017, Kirby has since dropped to 49th on the fourth and final tier list.
Since then, Kirby has failed to make a significant impact at tournaments as he hardly has any tournament representation outside of {{Sm|Komota}} who never places high at supermajors. Meanwhile, characters lower than Kirby have all performed much higher with {{Sm|ZAKI}} getting 17th at [[Smash 'N' Splash 4]] and [[2GG: Hyrule Saga]] while defeating {{Sm|MKLeo}} and {{Sm|Rags}}; {{Sm|Onpu}} and {{Sm|Rizeasu}} performing very well in Japan with the former taking {{Sm|WaDi}} to game 3 as {{SSB4|Zelda}}; {{Sm|Pon}}, {{Sm|Gungnir}} and {{Sm|Rickles}} doing work with {{SSB4|Ganondorf}} in their regions with {{Sm|Pon}} beating {{Sm|Ally}}, {{Sm|Gungnir}} getting 17th at [[Umebura Japan Major 2017]] while defeating {{Sm|Taiheita}} and {{Sm|Earth}}; and {{Sm|Captain L}} using {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}} as an effective secondary taking sets off of {{Sm|Larry Lurr}}, {{Sm|BestNess}}, {{Sm|John Numbers}} {{Sm|Blank}}, {{Sm|Strike}}, {{Sm|Pandarian}} and even took {{Sm|ESAM}} to game 5 with the character.
Due to Kirby's meager tournament results and his glaring weaknesses some smashers claim that he should be even lower due to his overwhelming weaknesses with {{Sm|ESAM}} ranking him as the 3rd worst character in the game, putting him below {{SSB4|King Dedede}}, {{SSB4|Wii Fit Trainer}}, {{SSB4|Zelda}} and even below {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}}, who is widely considered to be the worst character in the game, as well as {{Sm|Raito}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}} claiming that he's the absolute worst character in the game. Others, however, think that he is underrated and that he should be ranked relatively higher due to his excellent combo game, good kill power and great edgeguarding.
