This is a notable improvement from her 20th out of 54 placement in ''SSB4'', and is her best placement in the series. Peach's ability to float turns what would be a modest moveset into a major threat in the hands of top-level players. The ability to maintain her vertical position through floating makes for an amazing movement option and recovery tool, while also assisting in some of the most damaging combos in the game. Her [[Vegetable]] is an outstanding and versatile item projectile that aids with combos, edgeguarding, and occasionally zoning. Her edgeguarding is also amazing thanks to the aforementioned float, allowing her to go far offstage with little risk, or hover near the ledge to line up and land an aerial with relative ease. By floating right above the ground, Peach can effectively turn her air attacks into ground attacks. This ground-level floating also bypasses Ultimate's short-hop multiplier and makes it easier to land right after using an aerial and optimize its shield safety and pressure. All in all, this gives Peach one of the best aerial games in ''Ultimate''. | ||
While floating alleviates a variety of would-be weaknesses, Peach still isn't flawless, suffering from a wholly undesirable combination of a fairly tall hurtbox, low weight, and very slow falling speed, with subpar dash speed to boot. Even with access to float-centric mixups, Peach has some difficulty escaping juggles owing to her air dodge being one of the worst in terms of endlag. Her heavy reliance on aerials in the neutral game and somewhat ineffective smash attacks mean that she can sometimes have difficulty with KO-ing opponents as her aerials become [[Stale-move negation|stale]]. She is also lacking in disjointed range, allowing for characters like {{SSBU|Shulk}} and {{SSBU|Cloud}} to wall her out effectively and stuff out floating approaches. Finally, Peach is one of the most difficult characters to use effectively since her float canceling techniques, while exceedingly effective, are undeniably very demanding to perform, ensuring that being ranked as high as 7th is only warranted for those who really know what they're doing. | |||
Overall, Peach is a | Overall, Peach is a fighter capable of incredible feats, but requires a lot of dedication and technical skill to take her to the highest level. Despite this, she has been considered one of the best characters in the game throughout the game’s lifespan, with {{Sm|Samsora}} showing strong results at supermajors in the early metagame. In the post pandemic era, players such as {{Sm|MuteAce}} have continued to obtain high placements for her. | ||

In terms of direct changes, her [[forward aerial]], previously one of her most effective KO moves, is weaker and has received a sourspot, making it more difficult to use effectively. Her [[dash attack]] and [[back throw]] both have reduced knockback as well. | In terms of direct changes, her [[forward aerial]], previously one of her most effective KO moves, is weaker and has received a sourspot, making it more difficult to use effectively.

Overall, Peach | Overall, Peach is considerably better than her ''SSB4'' incarnation thanks to superior mobility and an improved combo game, and the changes to ''Ultimate''{{'}}s mechanics have further strengthened her caveats. However, Peach still retains some of her weaknesses from the previous game, such as her overall poor mobility, and her somewhat light weight and extreme floatiness rendering her vulnerable to vertical KOs and juggling, the latter of which gives her trouble landing safely. Game updates have also brought some noticeable nerfs to Peach; though the metagame's optimization has shown this has only mildly impacted her viability. Ultimately, Peach fares much better than she did in ''SSB4'', and this is considered to be her strongest incarnation in the series, even above [[Peach (SSBM)|her initial ''Melee'' iteration]]. | ||

Most likely as a result of her dominating performances in the competitive scene of ''Ultimate'', Peach was nerfed overall by game updates. She received a few nerfs in update {{SSBU|3.0.0}}, her [[Toad]] can no longer be used to stall indefinitely in the air, now only stalling at its first use, and her [[Vegetable]]s deal less shield damage, hindering the projectiles' shield pressure capabilities. | Most likely as a result of her dominating performances in the competitive scene of ''Ultimate'', Peach was nerfed overall by game updates.

Update {{SSBU|3.1.0}} | Update {{SSBU|3.1.0}} arguably nerfed Peach harder than any other balance patch in the game's lifespan: Both back throw and forward aerial deal less knockback, further weakening what was considered to be her more effective KOing options, Peach Bomber has more endlag when connected, hindering its safety against shields, and Vegetable has more endlag, leaving Peach more vulnerable to enemy attacks when plucking turnips. Moreover, the removal of held item attacks makes her options when holding a turnip less versatile. | ||
Peach has received a few small buffs | However, Peach has also received a few small buffs in various updates. Thanks to its changes in updates 2.0.0, 3.1.0, and 5.0.0, Peach Parasol connects more reliably against opponents and grabs the ledge much easier, patch 3.1.0 allows jab to connect more efficiently, and forward smash's golf club swing deals more knockback, improving its KO potential. Patch 4.0.0 made it so Toad's spores connect more reliably when countering an attack from behind, and 13.0.1 made so Peach Bomber now allows Peach to grab the edges of stages for its entire duration. | ||
Overall, while Peach, along with Daisy, have been nerfed, the Princesses are still seen as some of the game's best characters, and remain highly prevalent and successful in the competitive scene. | Overall, while Peach, along with Daisy, have been nerfed, the Princesses are still seen as some of the game's best characters, and remain highly prevalent and successful in the competitive scene to this day. | ||
