Although Patch 3.1.0 granted Little Mac several useful buffs, Patch 4.0.0 would revert his biggest buff: because of a change that fixed an unintentional mechanic, Little Mac's manual gentleman jab no longer combos into itself or any KO moves, hindering his combo ability. Furthermore, the patches did not fix Little Mac's significant disadvantage state, and thus have not made enough impact to shift the community's negative perception on him. While this hasn't stopped Little Mac from gaining some impressive results thanks to the works of {{Sm|Kwaz}} and {{Sm|Tarakotori}}, his cons are generally agreed to be too detrimental for him to be viable in the current metagame. | Although Patch 3.1.0 granted Little Mac several useful buffs, Patch 4.0.0 would revert his biggest buff: because of a change that fixed an unintentional mechanic, Little Mac's manual gentleman jab no longer combos into itself or any KO moves, hindering his combo ability.

In the online metagame, a few Little Mac players have made an impact. Most notably, {{Sm|Peanut}} had seen consistently strong performances at several weeklies as well as wins over Wi-Fi Warriors such as {{Sm|8BitMan}} and {{Sm|Myran}}. Despite this, Little Mac continues to suffer low representation on a higher level, with Peanut struggling to match his weekly performance at Wi-Fi Warrior Rank tournaments. | |||
