Wario (ワリオ, Wario) returns as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. 4. He was officially confirmed on October 3rd, 2014 alongside Ness and Falco, coinciding with the North American and European release of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. This time around, he is unlockable, as opposed to being available from the start in Brawl.
He retains his biker outfit from the WarioWare series, as well as his overalls from the Mario games. He is voiced by Charles Martinet, who voices the character in all but a few of his appearances, as well as Mario, Luigi, and Waluigi, using the same voice clips from Brawl.
In the current tier list, Wario is ranked at 41st position out of 55 characters, an enormous drop from his 10th out of 38 in Brawl. Like in Brawl, Wario surprisingly possesses great aerial mobility and good overall mobility for a heavyweight, with great aerial attacks and a strong ground game to complement this. He has great setups with most of his aerial attacks and bike projectiles as his aerials have low end lag and a huge stun hurtbox with the bike, which can be used repetitively to pressure his opponents for defense and racking up damage.
However, while some of his finishers were made more powerful, they are generally laggier, particularly in regards to startup and cooldown lag, making him more dependent on baiting and reading in order to KO opponents. Furthermore, Wario's lack of effective anti-projectile methods, along with his relatively average range, hinders his ability to space and approach, especially against characters with effective disjoints or projectiles.
While Wario has had a few high placings at tournaments, including a fifth place finish from Reflex at MLG World Finals 2015, his tournament representation has been poor for a character of his tier, with other characters near him on the tier list generally commanding larger playerbases and slightly better tournament results. Furthermore, a number of his best players, such as Abadango, have dropped him as a main in lieu of characters deemed more viable.
