Mr. Game & Watch (SSB4): Difference between revisions

***{{buff|This new finisher uses a regular hitbox (rather than a windbox) which deals damage (0% → 2%) and much more knockback (29 (set), 100 (scaling) → 60 (base)/180).}}

**{{buff|Forward tilt's four hitboxes have been replaced with two extended hitboxes, which cover more range than the previous iteration.}}

**{{buff|Forward tilt base knockback has been increased (20 → 35).}}

**{{change|Forward tilt has received a late hitbox that deals 4%. This lengthens its duration (frames 10-15 → 10-17), but makes it more susceptible to punishment at low to medium percentages.}}

**{{nerf|Clean forward tilt's inner hitbox deals less damage (10% → 10% (chair)/9% (body)).}}

**{{nerf|Forward tilt's angle has been altered (45°/37° → 361°). This worsens it on-hit at low percentages, and makes it send at more survivable angles in the later percentages, no longer semi-spiking.}}

**{{buff|Up tilt can now hit twice. Its damage has been reduced (8% → 7%), but its total still does more than it's previous iteration (14%).}}

**{{buff|Up tilt has decreased start-up lag (frame 13 → 10).}}

**{{nerf|Up tilt's animation has been altered so Mr. Game & Watch's arch is much more shallow, and it's innermost (body) hitbox has been removed. This hinders it's ability to hit in front of Mr. Game & Watch.}}

**{{nerf|Up tilt has increased ending lag (FAF 30 → 36).}}

**{{nerf|Up tilt has a shorter duration (frames 13-21 → 10-12 (hit 1), 20-22 (hit 2)), worsening its use as an anti-air.}}

**{{nerf|Up tilt's first hits deals less base knockback (30 → 20).}}

**{{buff|Down tilt's grounded hit has significantly increased knockback (50 (base), 50 (scaling) → 40/125).}}

**{{nerf|Down tilt has significantly increased ending lag (FAF 26 → 40).}}

**{{nerf|Down tilt's hit on grounded opponents has a higher angle (20° → 30°).}}

**{{nerf|Down tilt's grounded hit is active for a slightly shorter duration (frames 6-15 → 6-13).}}

**{{nerf|Down tilt has received a [[wind]]box above its hitbox and has lost its aerial hitbox. While this increases it's utility in other areas, its use as a disjointed edge-guarding tool has been completely removed, dealing far less damage (9% → 1%), no knockback and sending upward.}}

**{{change|Dash attack angle now sends in front of Mr. Game & Watch instead of behind (120° → 50°).}}

**{{buff|Dash attack has an updated animation that gives the move significantly more range, making it a key zone-breaking tool for Mr. Game & Watch.}}

**{{buff|Dash attack's knockback scaling has been increased (50 → 70), making it stronger than before despite dealing less damage.}}

**{{nerf|Dash attack deals less damage (11% → 10% (clean)/6.5% (late)).}}

**{{nerf|Dash attack's overall duration has been reduced (frames 6-29 → 6-9 (early)/10-19 (late)).}}

**{{nerf|Dash attack's size has been reduced (6.24u → 6u (early)/5.5u (late)).}}
