Fox (SSBU): Difference between revisions

Mike West reprises his role from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' with new voice clips, sounding more akin to his appearances in ''Star Fox Zero'' and ''Starlink: Battle for Atlas''.  In the Japanese version, Fox is now voiced by {{s|Wikipedia|Takashi Ōhara}}, reprising his role from ''Star Fox 64 3D'' and ''Star Fox Zero'', replacing {{s|wikipedia|Kenji Nojima}} from ''[[Brawl]]'' and ''Smash 4''.

Fox is ranked 5th on the [[tier list]] placing him in S tier. This is a slight improvement from his placement in ''Smash 4'' where he was ranked 7th/8th out of 55. Fox is also the highest ranked of the [[original 8]] starter characters as well as the second highest ranked veteran behind [[Sonic (SSBU)|Sonic]] in 4th; the two coincidentally tied with each other in ''Smash 4''. Fox retains many of his strengths from the previous game including his phenomenal movement options, stellar frame data, and high damage output resulting in him having one of the best [[Neutral game|neutrals]] and advantage states in the entire game. Fox also has many ways to kill reliably thanks to his powerful and quick [[Smash attack|smash attacks]] and his notoriously safe [[Back aerial|back aerial]] at [[Ledge|ledge]] granting Fox the ability to overwhelm his opponents easily. Fox also greatly benefits from the game's engine as the nerfs to airdodging make his advantage state even scarier than before.
