Ganondorf (ガノンドロフ, Ganondorf) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Ganondorf has gone through some dramatic changes in design from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, most notably in the aesthetic department. Ganondorf sports a remastered appearance from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and now utilizes the sword from the Spaceworld 2000 Tech Demo and Super Smash Bros. Melee in his Smash Attacks. Additionally, he is granted a slight boost in power and altered animations for many of his moves, the latter of which furthering him from Captain Falcon and making him his own character for the first time in the series.
Aesthetics
- Ganondorf's appearance is changed back to his original design from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, albeit with a complete graphical overhaul to his appearance. Additionally, his voice is reverted back to his original voice actor, with updated voice clips.
- Ganondorf's initial dash and running animations were altered.
Attributes
- Universal frame 3 jumpsquat significantly improves Ganondorf's ability to be airborne.
Ground attacks
- Neutral attack no longer has a sourspot.
- Dash attack's animation slightly altered.
- Up tilt has significantly faster startup.
- Up tilt now has a flame effect on Ganondorf's foot during the startup.
- Down tilt's damage was greatly increased.
- Ganondorf has a new forward smash, a downward sword slash. Compared to the previous forward smash, it has significantly improved range, and covers overhead.
- Ganondorf has a new up smash, an overhead sword swing. Compared to the previous up smash, it has significantly improved range, and covers around his body.
- Ganondorf has a new down smash, a low sword hilt thrust forward into a stab behind him, similar to Cloud's down smash. Compared to the previous down smash, it has a much lower hitbox placement allowing it to hit low crouching opponents, and lowers Ganondorf's hurtbox. It also now sends enemies at a semi-spike angle. The hitbox on the first hit that sent opponents forward and away from the second hit was removed.
Aerial attacks
- All aerials have significantly lower landing lag.
- Forward aerial's auto-cancel window was restored.
Throws/other attacks
- Forward throw's animation was altered.
- Up throw's damage was significantly increased.
- Edge attack deals 2.5% increased damage (from 8% → 10.5%)
Special Moves
- Opponents released by trading attacks with Dark Dive during its grab now receive 8.4% damage.
- Opponents can now escape aerial Flame Choke via button mashing, significantly hindering Ganoncide's utility while making it completely unsafe to use as it likely leaves Ganondorf unable to recover.
- Grounded Wizard's Foot deals more damage as it travels further and deals multiple hits near the end of the move.
- Beast Ganon deals 12.4% more damage (40% → 52.4%).
- Beast Ganon's appearance is now that of his Ocarina of Time incarnation. Instead of slamming the ground, Beast Ganon slashes with his swords before rushing forward.
Trivia
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate marks the first time in the series that Ganondorf utilizes a sword in his base moveset.
- However, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS allows him to utilize his sword, albeit as a custom move.
