'''Chrom''' ({{ja|クロム|Kuromu}}, ''Chrom'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. He was announced as a newcomer alongside {{SSBU|Simon}}, {{SSBU|Richter}}, {{SSBU|Dark Samus}}, and {{SSBU|King K. Rool}} in the Nintendo Direct on August 8th, 2018. Chrom is {{SSBU|Roy}}'s [[Echo Fighter]], thus being classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #25<sup>ε</sup>]], though his lack of sweetspots makes him parallel Roy the same way {{SSBU|Lucina}} parallels {{SSBU|Marth}}. In addition to his role as a playable character, Chrom remains a part of {{SSBU|Robin}}'s [[Final Smash]], [[Pair Up]]. | '''Chrom''' ({{ja|クロム|Kuromu}}, ''Chrom'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Chrom is ranked 54th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the C+ tier. This is significantly lower than his base fighter Roy, who is ranked 19th out of 82 on the current tier list and placed in the A tier. As with Roy, Chrom is blessed with an effective set of tools which work well with ''Ultimate'''s more aggressive pace: his combination of strong mobility and falling speed, quick frame data for a swordsman, good hitboxes on his attacks, and overall high damage-to-frame data ratio (courtesy of the weighted average of Roy's sweetspots and sourspots being rather high) grant him a powerful advantage state once the opportunity presents itself. Chrom also possesses one of the best [[neutral attack]]s in the game that has a myriad of uses (including being able to hit some opponents hanging from ledge) and a strong set of [[special attack]]s, including a unique up special in [[Soaring Slash]], which is an effective damage dealer, decent [[out of shield]] option, and is infamous for its powerful [[meteor smash]], allowing it to KO ledge-hanging opponents at 0% or function as a powerful [[sacrificial KO]]. | Chrom is ranked 54th out of 82 on the current [[tier list]], placing him in the C+ tier.
