Brawl- is a hack for Super Smash Bros. Brawl that modifies the gameplay to feel over-the-top, via extreme physics changes and buffing all characters by an insane degree (by both buffing their attacks to ridiculous levels and giving them a plethora of new options), while also staying balanced.

Features

  • No random Prat Falling. Moves that trip the opponent such as bananas will still trip.
  • Dash cancel. Crouch to cancel a dash.
  • No replay time limit. The replay icon still does not appear if the match is longer than three minutes, but if the button to save replays is pressed, the replay will be saved normally.
  • Window of time for dash-dancing lengthened, enabling more Melee-like DDing.
  • Ability to shield during dash-dancing.
  • Ability to perform a down smash during a dash.
  • No stale move negation. The freshness bonus is still intact.
  • Lagless edges - characters can now drop from or climb onto ledges immediately after grabbing them.

Gameplay tweaks

  • Increased shield stun (duration stuck in shield while being attacked).
  • Drastically increased hitstun, being a x0.54 multiplier, which is even higher than the original Super Smash Bros.' x0.46 multiplier. The ability to act out of hitstun has also been completely removed.
  • Air dodging is disabled during tumbling, similar to Melee.
  • Every character changed, ranging from subtle changes to radically recreated characters.
  • Every character can wall jump.

Stage changes

Many stages are customized or replaced completely. All Brawl stages not listed here are unchanged from the original Brawl.

  • 1337 m (a rearrangement of 75 m's elements comprising a single large platform, a smaller raised platform to the right, and one column of elevators to the left; replaces 75 m)
  • Brinstar (destroying the floor substance brings the two halves together into one platform instead of distancing them)
  • Castle Siege (floor removed on the second stage)
  • Distant Planet (slope replaced with a non-walkoff stump, weather changes every two minutes)
  • Dream Greens (Dream Land with Green Greens' aesthetics and apples; replaces Green Greens)
  • Final Destination (SSBB) (ledge collisions have been smoothed, preventing getting caught under them)
  • Frigate Orpheon (ledge collisions have been smoothed)
  • Green Hill Zone (no longer a walkoff stage)
  • Halberd (claw removed)
  • Hyrule Castle (No tornado hazards; replaces Bridge of Eldin)
  • Jungle Japes (slope added connecting the main and right platforms, river's strength slightly weakened, Klaptrap frequency increased)
  • Lavaville (Smashville with Norfair's background and hazards; replaces Norfair)
  • Luigi's Mansion (second floor is drop-through)
  • Lylat Cruise (stage doesn't tilt)
  • Mario Bros. (rearranged into a more conventional stage structure, but retains the original's hazards)
  • New Pork City (permanently has the Ice Climbers' Iceberg blocking the middle of the stage, death boundaries moved right so players can only fight on the right edge of the stage or on the platforms above it, swinging platform frozen)
  • Peach's Castle (bumper acts as a stationary solid block; replaces Mushroomy Kingdom)
  • Pictochat (Some drawings are restructured)
  • Pirate Ship (cannon fires faster)
  • Pokémon Stadium (permanently on the forest/jungle stage)
  • Pokémon Stadium 2 (no stage transformations)
  • Port Town Aero Drive (additional grabbable edges and wall jumpable walls)
  • Rumble Falls (Made into a neutral stage with a bridge and 3 platforms)
  • Skyworld (Bottom most platform is unbreakable and breakable platforms are clouds)
  • Spear Pillar (Dialga, Plakia or Cresselia can be chosen by holding A+R, A+L or A+Z during loading respectively. Palkia's version is a neutral stage with no cave nor hazards, Cresselia's version has no cave and incresed hazard frequency, Dialga's version has the cave and incresed hazard frequency.)
  • Summit (grabbable edges)
  • Temple (uses the layout of Skyloft from Project M with the original Temple's aesthetics)
  • WarioWare, Inc. (without microgames)
  • Yoshi's Island (SSBB) (all walls are now wall jumpable)
  • Yoshi's Island (SSBM) (extended blast zones and all of the blocks removed, except for three new giant blocks that rotate around the stage)

Menu changes

  • The Wii Remote warning, loading screen, and the beginning of the opening movie are different.
  • The title screen is different.
  • The main menu has a purple background.
  • Some menu option buttons have different icons and fonts, and points on their borders.
  • Zero Suit Samus, Sheik, Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard have been given their own independent character select slots.

Character changes

Bowser

  • Weight and character size increased
  • Shield size increased
  • Fire Breath removed, now replaced with Royal Rampage on the ground and Galactic Crusher in the air.
    • Royal Rampage: Bowser performs a Running Bear Grab. Bowser will gain super armor and walk forward until he either grabs an opponent or after 3 stomps. Grabbing the opponent results in an alternate grab state with alternate throws.
      • Forward throw: Bowser spins around and then throws the foe forward.
      • Back throw: Bowser grinds the opponent on the ground with his shell. A powerful horizontal finisher.
      • Up throw: Bowser jumps into the air and performs a piledriver. Useful for KOs.
      • Down throw: "Discus toss". Bowser slams the opponent on the ground. The opponent can tech the move like with Mr. Game & Watch's down throw.
    • Galactic Crusher: Bowser spins around in the air and gains super armor. If a foe is in range, they will be grabbed and piledriven into the ground, resulting in a powerful explosion and massive knockback.
  • Whirling Fortress gains significantly increased vertical height when used for recovery. On the ground, Whirling Fortress is a multi-hitting attack after the initial hitbox.
  • Bowser Bomb's falling speed is decreased by half if the special move button is held. Grounded startup can be canceled into aerials or jump.
  • Up smash has an earthquake hitbox at the end, similarly to King Dedede's side smash.
  • Has a flame effect added to his forward smash, forward aerial (when sweetspotted), up aerial, forward throw, and pummel.
  • Back throw now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory, with significantly increased knockback, becoming capable of reliably KOing under 150%.
  • First hit of down tilt has a chance of tripping the opponent.
  • Dash attack has super armor and propels Bowser farther.
  • Vacuum effect added to the charging of his forward smash.
  • Super Armor on his forward smash charge, with forward and backward dodge cancels, simulating a Street Fighter "Focus Attack".
  • Fully charged forward smash ignores shields.
  • Grabs now have invincibility on startup. Pressing the special move button within the first few frames of a grab cancels it into a pivot grab.
  • Neutral aerial has IASA frames.
  • Back aerial is now a semi-spike, similar to how it was in Melee, but with significantly less ending lag. It also has an additional hitbox when Bowser lands, similar to Pikachu's down aerial.

Captain Falcon

  • Dashing and air speed have been improved, short hop height has been decreased.
  • Falcon Punch now has higher hitlag when it connects, hitting the foe four times with massive knockback on the final hit, and can instantly break shields.
  • Falcon Dive, when it grabs, will stall before Captain Falcon lets out the explosion, while accompanied by his "Show me your moves!" SFX. The attack itself is much stronger, and hitboxes have been added to end of the animation when he flips if Captain Falcon fails to grab an opponent.
  • Raptor Boost travels further when airborne and no longer makes him helpless. Grounded Raptor Boost ends with the uppercut animation instead of the falling down animation, making it more difficult to punish a whiffed Raptor Boost. The Raptor Boost is also immune to projectiles on the ground.
  • Falcon Kick is a multi-hitting attack when not sweetspotted, and restores his midair jump when used in the air. When sweetspotted, knockback is drastically stronger for both grounded and airborne versions. Grounded Falcon Kick also travels further.
  • All grabs are faster and have longer reach. A successful grab is accompanied by his "Come on!" SFX.
  • Forward throw is much stronger, being able to reliably KO under 150%. Back throw now meteor smashes.
  • Third hit of his jab combo has an electrical effect similar to the Knee Smash and has higher knockback than before. His pummel also has an electrical effect now with increased damage. Landing both is accompanied by his "Yes!" SFX.
  • Up tilt can now meteor smash.
  • Down tilt hits opponents weakly behind Captain Falcon.
  • Forward smash is stronger and Captain Falcon slides further when used, giving it more reach.
  • First kick of down smash produces higher trajectory knockback, while the second kick produces lower trajectory knockback, being a semi-spike.
  • Forward aerial works similarly to how it did in Melee, where sweetspotting it requires only landing the initial hitbox. The forward aerial has less ending lag and is stronger when sweetspotted. Landing a sweetspotted forward aerial is also accompanied by his "Yes!" SFX.
  • Down aerial always meteor smashes, is faster in both start-up and ending lag, and is stronger.
  • His side taunt has a vacuum effect, covering a huge area in front of him.
  • By quickly inputting up taunt, down taunt, up taunt, he can perform a special "power up" taunt, and successfully completing it without interruption will cause the next Falcon Punch he uses to be much faster in start-up, but not have the multi-hit effect of the normal punch. In the power up taunt, Captain Falcon moves like in his up taunt, but the flames around him gradually get bigger, and he says "show me, show me, show me your moves!".

Charizard

  • Has two additional midair jumps.
  • Flamethrower dissipates at a slower rate.
  • Rock Smash is interruptible during start-up lag by shielding, a grab, or an air dodge. It also leaves behind rock particles that damage upon being contacted with, known as "Stealth Rock".
  • Fly travels higher upwards.
  • Down throw produces an explosion at the end, along with more knockback and damage.
  • Dash attack propels Charizard farther.
  • Glide attack has a fire effect, and is much stronger with additional graphics.
  • Can instantly glide any time by performing an aerial down special.
  • Forward aerial is now "Heat Wave". Range of the flames is massively increased, all hitboxes flinch, and the final hit causes average knockback.
  • Neutral aerial is now "Fire Spin". Sweetspot is enlarged, speed is increased and additional flame effects have been added.

Diddy Kong

  • Can pull an additional Banana Peel when two are on the ground. Doing so causes him to perform his up taunt, and obtaining another banana. He also pulls the first two bananas much faster.
  • The explosion from when the Peanut Popgun is charged too long now produces a very powerful, damaging hitbox.
  • Knockback on forward and down tilts are now set, and are extremely weak.
  • Diddy Kong can go off ledges when he does his dash attack. Doing so turns it into a neutral aerial immediately upon going off the ledge.
  • Forward smash can be interrupted into a shield between the first and second hits.
  • Up smash can be jump canceled 5 frames after the final hit.
  • Holding B while performing an aerial move will make Diddy pull out a throwable peanut.
  • Monkey Flip grab reworked:
    • Pressing the jump button makes Diddy pushes himself forward, knocking the opponent backwards.
    • Pressing A or B makes Diddy smack the opponent and propulse both of them upwards.
  • Has two side taunts. A light D-Pad press makes Diddy do a quick, silent laugh, while a harder press performs his original side taunt.
  • When using down taunt, confetti will appear and the audience will cheer.

Donkey Kong

  • Pulls Barrels if down special is held instead of pressed.
  • Giant Punch charges faster when Donkey Kong is airborne, and it no longer leaves him helpless if used when airborne.
  • Spinning Kong rises slightly higher when used for recovery, as well as giving Donkey Kong a slight push upwards right when the move ends and leaves him helpless.
  • Dash attack propels Donkey Kong farther as well as being much stronger and sending opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Forward smash produces a wind effect.
  • Donkey Kong slides much farther when doing a running up smash.
  • Down smash now produces a small earthquake hitbox when Donkey Kong's fists hit the ground.
  • Neutral aerial has a sourspot that very weakly hits opponents towards Donkey Kong.
  • Side taunt heals Donkey Kong at a slow rate, for a total of 5% if it is completed without interruption.
  • Down taunt can be interrupted at any time by any attack and can be performed in mid-air with an aerial down special.

Falco

  • The height of his midair jump has been decreased, but has been given two additional midair jumps.
  • Falling speed has been increased.
  • Blaster deals twice as much damage when used on the ground. Blaster shots also move much slower, allowing Falco to create a wall of lasers that can be difficult to break through.
  • Falco Phantasm has additional graphics, hits with more power and hitlag and does not cause helplessness. The ground version can be jump canceled at the end, while the air version can be interrupted into a wall jump if possible.
  • Reflector now draws foes towards Falco and has additional graphics.
  • Fire Bird's fire radius and hitboxes have been increased significantly in size. The charge time has increased but it travels much farther and with much greater velocity.
  • Lasers from his up, back, and down throw deal less damage, but Falco shoots more of them. These lasers are also affected by the laser slowdown.
  • Down throw now produces mostly vertical knockback instead of horizontal.
  • Forward smash produces a damaging wind hitbox.
  • Falco spins much faster when he uses his forward aerial, having much less hitlag. Forward aerial also now links into itself more fluidly and contains a powerful hitbox on the final hit.
  • Dash attack and back aerial have shorter duration.
  • Down aerial always meteor smashes when landed, as well as being stronger when sweetspotted.

Fox

  • If a direction is held on the control stick/C-Stick/D-Pad while air dodging, the air dodge physics become like those in Melee. This allows Fox to wavedash and perform his shine combos.
  • Dashing and air speed have been improved, while traction has been decreased.
  • Grounded Reflector can be cancelled via jump, similar to how it could be in Melee. Reflector also has a larger hitbox.
  • Fox Illusion can be interrupted by anything other than another Fox Illusion.
  • Dash attack can be cancelled with an up smash near the ending of the attack, not just the beginning.
  • Down smash slides Fox forward significantly when used during a dash.
  • Down throw meteor smashes opponents onto the ground, like it did in Melee.
  • Back aerial has much more duration, behaving more like his back aerial from Melee.
  • "Come on!" SFX added to a landed up aerial.
  • Can slide off ledges by crouching while while walking or dashing.
  • Pressing B during his up taunt executes Fire Fox after it ends.

Ganondorf

  • A general drastic increase in the power and speed of his attacks.
  • Ganondorf is heavier (now approximately as heavy as Snake).
  • Warlock Punch's power is increased ridiculously, to now where it OHKOs, deals 666% damage, and is by far the strongest attack in Brawl-, even exceeding the power of Marth's Critical Hit. It also has IASA frames added to the frames after hitboxes terminate, essentially giving it no ending lag, and making it only punishable on start-up. However, if the Warlock Punch connects with a shield, Ganondorf will slide backwards at high speed and self-destruct. Also, holding the special button allows Ganondorf to launch a ball of energy similar in appearance to a fully charged shot from a Super Scope, except much slower, dealing muliple low-knockback, low-damage hits konwn as the "Gandouken".
  • Airborne Wizard's Foot always meteor smashes, buries grounded opponents, restores Ganondorf's midair jump, and ends sooner. Grounded Wizard's Foot is drastically stronger, KOing under 100%.
  • Flame Choke covers much more distance at a faster speed when used on the ground, and no longer makes Ganondorf helpless if he goes offstage using it or when he uses it in the air. The grounded version has less ending lag when landed, and also has heavy armor added to the non-grabbed portion, though on the downside, it can now be teched. The airborne version has much more forward momentum when landed as well as burying opponents upon landing on the ground. Pressing A during the grab of the air version executes an explosive throw with vertical knockback.
  • Dark Dive throw is drastically stronger and sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory similar to Wolf's down throw. Uppercut hitbox at the end of Dark Dive has also underwent a drastic increase in power and hitlag, dealing over 20% and being capable of KOing under 50%. Laughing SFX added to when Ganondorf releases the opponent after a successful Dark Dive.
  • All grabs are faster and have longer reach.
  • Pummel produces a darkness effect, and deals more damage.
  • Up throw produces a darkness effect, along with dealing much more damage and knockback. It now also does multiple hits.
  • Up tilt is faster, has damaging hitboxes on the vacuum and produces a near-full screen earthquake hitbox dealing 20% damage.
  • Dash attack has super armor.
  • Forward smash produces a large, darkness explosion, drastically increasing the size of its hitbox. It has an additional, weak hitbox added before the primary hitbox, and the primary hitbox now produces vertical knockback, like Ganondorf's foward smash did in Melee.
  • Second kick of the down smash sends opponents on a lower trajectory, with much more knockback.
  • Neutral aerial goes from first kick to second kick extremely quickly, and links properly. If the first kick connects, Ganon will kick the foe four times.
  • The back aerial's hitbox has longer duration, and also has an electrical effect on hit.
  • Down aerial when landed on a grounded opponent has less knockback, but is a potent combo starter.
  • During his down taunt (when he pulls out his sword), Ganondorf is invincible.

Ice Climbers

  • Increased air speed.
  • Chain throws are no longer possible, as the partner cannot grab.
  • Easier to Desync.
  • Ice Shots increase in size when traversing the ground instead of decreasing.
  • Belay now has hitboxes on both Climbers for the entirety of the non-helpless portion. When a solo climber uses the move, Belay gives much more horizontal and vertical distance when recovering.
  • Lead Climber's forward throw sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Down smash has less hitboxes, and deals dramatically less damage, but has improved knockback.
  • Both Climbers can now meteor smash with their forward aerial.
  • The Climbers now have horizontal control when using their down aerial, while falling at a slower speed when using it. It also now has stronger, horizontal knockback.
  • When charging a smash attack, the partner can move horizontally in the direction that is held on the analog stick (left or right).
  • Squall Hammer is able to be cancelled by a shield grab (R + A) or a standing grab (Z). (This is unlike Pit's Angel Ring that is cancelled by shielding and may lead into a grab.) In the air it is cancelled by an aerial attack by Popo only, and Nana will fall into the helpless state.

Ike

  • A general drastic increase in the speed of his attacks, both start-up and ending lag wise.
  • Quick Draw can be canceled by any input (including another Quick Draw), the attack doesn't make Ike helpless, and can be used multiple times while airborne without landing.
  • Eruption can be charged and saved for later use, accompanied by his "Prepare yourself!" SFX when it can be stored. While it is stored, Ike's sword emits flame puffs as a visual indicator.
  • When Eruption is fully charged, Ike enters "No Sympathy" mode, which makes his attacks more powerful, but in turn gives Ike a small amount of damage for each attack he does and giving him some additional perks:
    • Counter will have his "You'll get no sympathy from me" SFX and a dramatic increase in hitlag, during which it can be cancelled into Eruption. Counter multiplier is also higher, and additional, random SFXs are played, including "Hah!" and "Gotcha!" during successful Counters.
    • The final ground strike on Aether heals Ike by 5%.
    • Up throw has fire hitboxes and is stronger.
    • Dash attack can be cancelled into anything on hit.
    • Down aerial can be interrupted by any special move.
  • Pummel speed has been drastically increased.
  • Knockback on up throw has been drastically increased, becoming capable of KOing under 150%.
  • Down throw knocks opponents down, akin to Snake's down throw.
  • Wind effect added to the end of all his smashes. Does damage when in No Sympathy mode.
  • Vacuum effect added to the charging of his forward smash, and landing the tip of the Ragnell no longer produces a sourspot hitbox.
  • The forward smash hits teammates, even when Team Attack is turned off.
  • Both strikes of the down smash now send opponents on a horizontal trajectory.
  • Neutral aerial has significantly less aerial ending lag, no longer resulting in accidental SDs when Ike is pushed off stage when trying to jab or shield grab.
  • When Ike lands while using his forward aerial, it produces a small wind effect.
  • Up aerial propels Ike upwards when the attack button is held.
  • "I fight for my friends" SFX replaces "Prepare yourself!" SFX on his side taunt.

Ivysaur

  • New aerial down special: Leaf Storm. Ivysaur creates a tornado of leaves down-forward, dealing 35% damage with high knockback. However, it has a long duration and renders Ivysaur helpless afterwards.
  • Ivysaur spins its leaves during Bullet Seed, producing additional hitboxes on its side. This also causes it to behave like a helicopter when used in the air, slightly pushing Ivysaur upward, and allowing it to move from side to side at will. However, the helicopter effect only occurs once per being airborne, and Ivysaur must land after using Bullet Seed for the helicopter effect to take effect again while airborne. If used on the ground, Ivysaur can still move left and right, but does not float up.
  • Razor Leaf deals twice as much damage, and has a random chance of producing a critical Razor Leaf, that deals four times as much damage, with high knockback and hitlag.
  • Vine Whip sends Ivysaur upwards if used after a jump, does not make it helpless, and can be used multiple times while airborne.
  • Pummel causes more damage.
  • Forward, back, and up throw are all drastically stronger, KOing well under 150%.
  • Dash attack is stronger.
  • Down smash is much stronger
  • Up smash, up aerial, and down aerial produce a larger explosion with a larger hitbox. They also have additional sourspot hitboxes added that cause varying effects. Up smash sourspots stuns opponents similar to the paralyzer effect, up aerial sourspots causes a flower effect (though sweetspotting it produces a flower effect as well), and down aerial sourspots have a random chance of putting opponents to sleep.
  • Back aerial does almost three times the damage, dealing 11% when both hits connect instead of 4%.

Jigglypuff

  • Has 10 midair jumps instead of 5, with some attacks producing elemental effects.
  • The range of Sing has been greatly increased, and the opponent(s) stay asleep for longer.
  • Rollout can be interrupted by anything if it hits, including a natural combo into Rest if timed properly.
  • Pound travels slightly further, and produces a spark at the end, which upon contact damages the opponent with an electrical effect with dramatic hitlag, while sending them on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Rest is much stronger, has less ending lag (Jigglypuff wakes up sooner), and recovers damage at a moderate rate while Jigglypuff is asleep, for a total of 15% if Jigglypuff wakes up without interruption. If Rest connects with a foe, Jigglypuff heals an additional 10%, totaling at a 25% heal.
  • Back throw now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory, while the down throw is now a meteor smash.
  • Down tilt slides Jigglypuff forward, while sending opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Forward smash covers much more distance, giving it much more reach, and it is stronger.
  • Down Smash has a vacuum effect on its charge animation.
  • The size of Jigglypuff's shield has been greatly increased, being more than twice its original size. Upon its shield being broken, a massive explosion will accompany the shield jump, which will hit opponents right next to the explosion for 100% with extreme horizontal knockback, instantly OHKOing any opponent caught directly in the explosion. Opponents a little further away will be hit for only 25% with dramatically less knockback.
  • Side taunt allows Jigglypuff to move while she is spinning, and if completed with interruption she will use "gravity", which inflicts slight damage and slightly spikes foes near her.
  • Down taunt produces a windbox that blows foes away from her.

King Dedede

  • Dedede's neutral special is now the "DDDecree", which allows him to command his Waddle Dees and Waddle Doos directly by using the Control Stick while holding B to make them jump, turn or trip or releasing B to make the Waddle Dees do a flip kick and the Waddle Doos use their beam.
    • Consequently, Waddle Doos will never use their beam randomly, and Waddle Dees no longer lunge forward.
  • Waddle Dee Toss has become far more varied in direction and power. Dedede can choose to throw forward, vertically in the air, or almost straight down. He can do a tilt throw that covers barely any distance, or a smash throw that can traverse the entire stage. Up to four minions can be on the stage at once per Dedede.
  • Waddle Dees can be launched at opponents when they are hit by Dedede.
  • Inhale has been remapped to down special, removing Jet Hammer in the process. The vacuum does damage, and can get an opponent stuck in their shield unless the opponent Smash DIs away.
  • Down throw knocks all opponents down, no longer being able to chain throw. However, it can be interrupted by a tilt after the damaging animation.
  • Pummel speed has been drastically increased.
  • Each hit on his jab combo comes out faster, and the last hit on his jab combo spins much faster.
  • Dash attack propels Dedede forward much farther, enough to traverse an entire stage, while having the hitbox throughout.
  • Forward smash creates a much larger earthquake hitbox that can reach to platforms Dedede isn't on, and trips opponents instead of knocking them upward. The forward smash is also slightly faster.
  • Down smash slides Dedede forward a far distance when used.
  • Neutral aerial now has two hitboxes that hit consecutively.
  • Back aerial, when sweetspotted, sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Up and down aerials propel Dedede slightly upward when used.
  • Pivot grab has invincibility frames added.

Kirby

  • Grounded Hammer is stronger, and hits with more hitlag. It can now be charged for a stronger attack by briefly holding down the button. Upon full charge, Hammer will deal fire damage.
  • The first hit of Air Hammer can be cancelled into itself repeatedly.
  • Final Cutter can move slightly farther horizontally. When on the ground, holding down on the control stick right before the jumping part of the move skips to the projectile-shooting part. It is also possible to cancel out of the move before the projectile-shooting part.
  • Pummel speed is slightly faster, while dealing more damage.
  • Up and down throw have stronger knockback, with the former being able to reliably KO under 150%.
  • Jab can be interrupted at any time.
  • Kirby now has two down tilts. Pressing down the button results in the normal tilt, while tapping it produces a sliding kick that propels Kirby backwards into the air, akin to his normal sliding kick in the Kirby games.
  • Kirby also has two dashing attacks. Tapping the button produces the normal attack, while pressing it down results in Kirby shooting forward like a ball of fire (the Burning power in the Kirby games, which was also his dash attack in Melee).
  • Forward smash covers more distance, giving it more reach.
  • Kirby spins faster when he uses his neutral aerial, and it has much less ending lag.
  • Forward aerial can be interrupted by another aerial attack after the second hit.
  • Kirby spins his feet faster when he uses his down aerial.
  • Kirby moves faster after swallowing someone with Inhale. Opponents spat out with Inhale will have downwards momentum.
  • Shares all copied neutral specials changes with the original characters, exceptions being: Bowser, King Dedede, Wario, Ness, Lucas, Mr. Game & Watch, Olimar, Pit, Link, Toon Link, Sheik, Samus, Ice Climbers, Pikachu, Falco, R.O.B., Snake, Captain Falcon, Ike, Marth and Sonic.
    • Copies Fire Breath and Inhale instead of Royal Rampage/Galactic Crusher and DDDcree. Dedede's Inhale's changes still apply to Kirby upon copying.
    • Both Hero's Bows, PK Flash, PK Freeze, Falco's Blaster, Chomp and Palutena's Arrow function like their regular Brawl counterparts.
    • Chef cannot cause self-damage.
    • Pikmin Pluck tosses Pikmin at a much faster rate.
    • Charge Shot lacks the paralyzer effect on non-fully-charged shots.
    • Needle Storm charges slightly faster and is charged by pressing the B button instead of holding it but its needles cannot explode.
    • Thunder Jolt does not launch opponents upwards.
    • Ice Shots shrink on distance instead of growing.
    • Kirby cannot store Eruption's charge nor can he enter No Sympathy mode; he executes it shortly after full charge.
    • Robo Beam always has a first level charge at minimum.
    • Cannot use Captain Falcon's power up taunt to charge a Falcon Punch.
    • Pulls out Motion-Sensor Bombs with Hand Grenade at a faster rate.
    • Uncharged Shield Breaker pushes Kirby backwards.
    • Cannot perform a Bouncing Attack after copying Homing Attack nor follow up Homing Attack shield hits with more Homing Attacks.

Link

  • Hero's Bow now shoots fire and bomb arrows randomly. Fire arrows produce a fire effect with strong horizontal knockback. Bomb arrows also produce a fire effect, but with strong vertical knockback instead.
  • When not smash thrown, Gale Boomerang covers less distance. When smash thrown, it travels twice as fast and far. It now produces damaging hitboxes during the apex of the throw and upon return, that flinch as well. The Gale Boomerang will also follow where Link goes upon return much more directly.
  • Spin Attack gains significantly more vertical and horizontal distance when used for recovering, greatly increasing its recovery capabilities. The initial grounded strike and final airborne strike are also much stronger with noticeable hitlag. "Hyaahh!" SFX added to final airborne strike when landed. Grounded Spin Attack has also gained Great Spin property (charging it considerably increases range), adding a fire effect when the tip of the blade hits the enemy during a fully charged Spin Attack.
  • Bombs can be thrown faster and further, while having much more knockback, giving them KOing capability. There is also a random chance of Link pulling a Deku Nut when he attempts to a pull a bomb.
  • Up and back throws are stronger, with the latter sending opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Forward tilt is now his regular Brawl forward smash, which can now meteor smash.
  • All smashes are stronger and faster. Forward Smash is now Link's Jump Strike from Twilight Princess.
  • All aerials have less landing lag.
  • When rolling forward, if Link holds A he can attack out of his roll.
  • If one holds A during Link's Up Taunt, Link can perform the Mortal Draw, a fearsome attack that OHKOs any foe it connects with.

Lucario

  • Maximum Aura power ratio increased to 280, achieved at a new maximum damage cap of 300%.
  • Air speed has been improved.
  • All aerials except down aerial are much faster in start-up and ending lag.
  • Pausing from down aerial is now shorter in duration.
  • Aura Sphere is larger, and uncharged to barely charged Aura Spheres follow a zig zag trajectory.
  • ExtremeSpeed now has damaging hitboxes throughout the move, and knocks the enemy in the direction of movement. It can be interrupted by any aerial attack - doing so before the end of the move lets Lucario keep its momentum, allowing it to recover farther. ExtremeSpeed also no longer leaves Lucario helpless.
  • Double Team is no longer a counter move, instead activating immediately.
  • Pummel speed increased.
  • Dash attack propels Lucario farther, with much less ending lag.
  • Forward smash is a multi-hitting attack.
  • Down smash now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Neutral aerial has more hitboxes, producing varying knockback trajectories, including one that sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.

  • In up taunt, Lucario deals 10 damage to itself (to increase aura damage).
  • If Lucario is below 50 damage and does the up taunt, down taunt, up taunt input, he will perform his Ultra Taunt, which creates powerful aura hitboxes all around Lucario and gives Lucario 300 damage, making him become high risk high reward.

Lucas

  • Dashing speed has been improved.
  • PK Freeze no longer leaves Lucas helpless when used while airborne. The PK Freeze projectile now explodes upon contacting ground or a wall, and will explode at the end of its trajectory if Lucas is hit before ending it. The projectile itself now produces a paralyzer effect instead of freezing opponents. Lucas can also jump out of the animation, allowing him to move with the PK Freeze projectile.
  • PK Fire gives Lucas a larger push back when used. Holding down B propels Lucas forward instead of backward. It is also a multi-hitting projectile that deals more damage.
  • If Lucas hits a wall/ceiling after hitting himself with the PK Thunder projectile, he does not become helpless and can use PK Thunder again, up to three consecutive PK Thunders.
  • PK Thunder can be interrupted by an air dodge. Doing so will not leave Lucas helpless.
  • PSI Magnet can be canceled via jump, akin to how Fox's/Falco's Reflector could be in Melee, pulls close opponents towards Lucas and has electric hitboxes dealing 2% damage per second.
  • Down throw has drastically reduced knockback, no longer being a KO throw, but increases comboing capability, especially into his back aerial.
  • Forward tilt is drastically faster, and pushes Lucas back slightly each time it is used.
  • Dash attack pushes Lucas much further, and has IASA frames added to all frames after hitboxes cede, essentially giving it no ending lag, which allows Lucas to use the momentum gain from the dash attack to slide forward while using another attack.
  • Down smash has been altered, to where the first two hits deal extremely weak vertical knockback with less damage, while the third hit is much stronger, and sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Each hit of the neutral aerial has increased hitlag and damage, and the last hit now produces strong horizontal knockback.
  • Each stomp on the down aerial comes out faster.
  • Lucas' grab aerial now produces a weak hitbox that sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory towards Lucas.
  • Down tilt now trips with his entire leg, instead of just the tip of his foot.

  • Luigi's footstool jump now damages (for 12%), as well as burying grounded opponents, and meteor smashing airborne opponents with much more knockback.
  • There is slightly less start-up and ending lag when Luigi uses Fireball. Fireballs travel in a straight diagonal arc and bounce off the floor, akin to the superballs in Super Mario Land. When holding B, Luigi will use the Thunderbrand from the Mario and Luigi series instead, an electric move that deals a single powerful blow.
  • Green Missile always results in a misfire when used. The attack's priority has been increased too, now passing projectiles and opponents. Also, Luigi can pull off a short-distanced misfire (Uncharged missile distance) in a 1/8 chance.
  • Super Jump Punch's sourspot is drastically stronger, being about half as strong as a sweetspotted Super Jump Punch. A sweetspotted Super Jump Punch is weaker however.
  • Down throw sends opponents on a horizontal trajectory instead of vertically.
  • Forward aerial now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Down Tilt is a lot faster, being about twice as fast, and produces a coin effect.
  • The meteor smash hitbox of down aerial now covers more of Luigi's body, making it much easier to meteor smash with.
  • Luigi Cyclone now has more IASA frames.
  • Pressing the Shield button during the Dash Attack makes Luigi do a "tripping attack". Can send opponents downward if used next to a ledge.
  • Down Taunt has invincibility frames (Right when Luigi kicks), making Taunt KOs safer.
  • Side taunt is now his gun fingers victory pose, which fires two fireballs.
  • Negative Zone can be jump canceled during the dance.
  • Pressing the up taunt, down taunt, up taunt makes Luigi perform the Negative Zone dance as a taunt, during which the crowd cheers and confetti and fireworks appear.

Mario

  • Successfully completing a side taunt turns him metal. Holding shield during a side taunt will not turn Mario metal.
    • The Metal Box's timer can no longer be refreshed while metal; Mario must become normal in order to put it back on.
  • Mario's footstool jump now damages (for 16%), as well as burying grounded opponents, and meteor smashing airborne opponents with much more knockback.
  • Start-up and ending lag on his fireballs are much faster, allowing him to shoot them at a more rapid pace. Fireball shoots two fireballs when performed airborne. In addition, if one holds B, instead of a fireball he will use the Firebrand from the Mario and Luigi series, which deals a bunch of small fire damage hits, allowing Mario to extend combos.
  • Super Jump Punch can be performed twice in succession, akin to Pikachu's Quick Attack, and the final hit is much stronger.
  • Forward, back, and up throw are much stronger, with the latter two being able to reliably KO under 150%.

  • Mario Finale can be jump canceled.

Marth

  • His attacks are generally stronger, both tipped and non tipped.
  • Walking and dashing speed have been improved.
  • Shield Breaker pushes Marth forwards further while grounded. When airborne, it produces much more forward momentum, and is interruptible by aerial attacks during its hitboxes duration and ending lag.
  • When the attack button is held, Marth will repeat his jab combo at a rapid pace.
  • When angled upwards, Marth's forward smash slides him forward a fair distance. When angled downwards, it slides him backwards a fair distance. An unangled forward smash functions similarly to how it did in normal Brawl. The forward smash also has an additional hitbox added right before the tip, that is stronger than the normal hitbox, but is not as strong as the tipper hitbox.
  • All grabs have longer reach.
  • Non-tipped down tilt sends opponents on a weak vertical trajectory, similar to Roy's down tilt in Melee.
  • Down aerial has a larger sweetspot, making it much easier to meteor smash with.
  • Critical Hit has been sped up and cannot be sidestepped or air dodged.

Meta Knight

  • A general decrease of damage in his attacks.
  • Meta Knight can still use his remaining jumps while in helpless state. After using his last midair jump, he will become completely helpless.
  • Meta Knight can use all four of his special moves in a single airborne period, but never the same one twice (for example, he can follow up an aerial Mach Tornado with an aerial Drill Rush, but he cannot follow up either not with another aerial Mach Tornado). After using a specific special move in the air, he must land, grab a ledge or get hit to use it again.
  • Meta Knight can cancel into any move after the last hit on Drill Rush.
  • Mach Tornado knocks opponents upwards but can be canceled into any aerial.
  • Dimensional Cape is much stronger when used as an attack and has increased hitlag. Also, Infinite Dimensional Cape can no longer be used, but tilting the C-stick or pressing the button assigned to up-smash will make the Dimensional Cape go straight to the attack, having near-instantaneous startup if done so right at the beginning.
  • Jab is now a single slash with vertical knockback that makes Meta Knight take a step back.
  • Down tilt has verticle knockback.
  • Down throw produces vertical knockback instead of horizontal.
  • Up smash consist of one strike only, and it gives Meta Knight a jump upward when used, similar to the Street Fighter special move Shoryuken.
  • Forward smash makes Meta Knight spin and vanish multiple times and does a upwards slash that does very high knockback but with large start-up and ending lag.
  • Glide attack now produces horizontal knockback instead of vertical knockback.
  • Forward throw now plays the "Fight me" SFX and gives the opponent a Beam Sword, as a nod to Meta Knight giving Kirby a sword before their fights in Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Super Star.
  • Up Throw is much slower, plays the "Come back when you can put up a fight" SFX, causes a heavy explosion and deals 45% damage and heavy knockback to both the opponent and Meta Knight when Meta Knight lands, essentially being used as a kamikaze attack.

Mr. Game & Watch

  • Dashing speed has been improved.
  • Judge can be interrupted by any standard attack, grabs or a double jump after the hitbox cedes. All Judge except for 9 have been significantly buffed, by having increased damage, and causing varying additional effects that temporarily incapacitate the opponent:
    • 1 makes the opponent slide behind Mr. Game & Watch. Additionally, it only causes 1% of self-damage to Mr. Game & Watch, as opposed to 12% in normal Brawl.
    • 2 produces a flower effect.
    • 3 has dramatically increased hitlag.
    • 4 puts the opponent to sleep
    • 5 buries the opponent.

  • Each hit on the jab combo deals more damage.
  • Forward tilt, up tilt, forward smash, and up smash are faster in both start-up and ending lag.
  • If the attack button is held, his neutral aerial uses a parachute and functions similarly to how it did in Melee. If the attack button is just tapped, it'll be his neutral aerial from normal Brawl.
  • Wind hitboxes on up aerial now cause slight damage.
  • Down aerial always meteor smashes outside of the hitbox produced upon landing and can be interrupted into a double jump or any special move after the hitboxe cedes.
  • Forward smash has two varieties depending on if it is angled or not. Non-angled forward smash functions similarly to how it did in normal Brawl. An angled forward smash will create multiple smaller and weaker hitboxes instead of several strong ones, and will end with Mr. Game & Watch releasing a parachute while holding a match. The parachute contains a strong hitbox.
  • The parachute on Fire has hitboxes added to it.

Ness

  • Can equip or unequip his bat by pressing A during a side taunt; this changes his jab, forward tilt, dash attack, neutral aerial, forward aerial, up aerial and down aerial. When the bat is equipped:
    • The first hit of the jab is a bat smack that can meteor smash.
    • Forward tilt is Ness' forward tilt with the Home-Run Bat.
    • Dash attack is a slide with the bat extended up-front, which can trip opponents when sourspotted.

    • Down aerial is a burning finger point that can meteor smash.
  • Ness can now Double Jump Cancel.
  • PK Flash no longer leaves Ness helpless if used while airborne. The PK Flash projectile also explodes when it hits ground or a wall, and will explode at the end of its trajectory if Ness is hit before ending it. Additionally, the startup of PK Flash has set vertical knockback, which can be easily followed up with an uncharged PK Flash.
  • PK Fire has slightly less start-up and ending lag when fired.
  • Ness no longer becomes helpless if the projectile from PK Thunder fails to hit him.
  • PSI Magnet produces a hitbox when initially used that causes light damage and vertical knockback. When it ends, it produces a wind effect. It can now also be cancelled via a jump, akin to Fox/Falco's reflector in Melee.

  • Side-B is now the Olimar Flip, a somersault jump.
  • Pikmin now have much more attack range and diversity in their attacks. Red Pikmin are multi-hit for fire damage. Yellow Pikmin hit for electric damage, spike nearby opponents and knock midrange opponents towards Olimar. Blue Pikmin consistenly knock foes towards Olimar. Purple Pikmin have half the range of other Pikmin, but are the most powerful. White Pikmin also knock foes towards Olimar, but spike foes in the air.
  • Forward tilt is now a powerful kick that has much more endlag, but is much more powerful in return.
  • Forward smash and up smash distance increased.

  • Down aerial has an added effect, similar to Peach's up tilt.
  • Dash attack can be cancelled by another attack immediately after hitboxes have been used up.
  • Canceling Peach's up special puts Peach into her helpless stage, but can be cancelled by another attack. However, after canceling the first time, using Peach's up special again will result in putting her into the helpless animation, without even using the up special.
  • Peach can now float cancel and gets an additional float.
  • Can grab the ledge backwards during the beginning of Peach Parasol.
  • First and second jump now sends Peach higher.
  • Neutral aerial now has considerable shield damage, slightly increased knockback, sends opponents at a low angle trajectory and its landing lag reduced from eleven frames to two. When sourspotted, it sends opponent at an even lower angle.

  • Angel Ring spins much faster, racking up damage much faster, and propels Pit further. It will also now propel Pit off ledges instead of stopping on the edge. The attack is able to be cancelled by one's shield during the middle section of the attack, making it a guaranteed chain into a grab.
  • Hitbox added to Wings of Icarus' startup.
  • Mirror Shield is jump cancelable.
  • Forward smash can be angled. Unangled forward smash is the same as in regular Brawl. Angled forward smash is a single close-range upward swipe that knocks up-backwards.

  • Stamina has been removed, effectively allowing one to play as a single Pokemon for the entire match.

R.O.B.

  • Has two additional midair jumps.
  • When Robo Beam is fully charged, the beam will paralyze opponents for a brief moment before knockback occurs. The attack can be angled with the control stick to aim, and the beams also ricochet. In addition, a fully charged beam is much more powerful.
  • Arm Rotor propels R.O.B. much further when used on the ground and in the air. It is also now interruptible.
    • If Arm Rotor is immediately interrupted with a back aerial, R.O.B. will move a ridiculous distance forward at breakneck speeds. This can lead to OHKOs on himself.
  • Can have two Gyros on the field at once.
  • Forward smash is stronger, has a larger hitbox, and hits with more hitlag when it is sweetspotted. Also, if the forward smash is fully charged or almost fully charged, R.O.B.'s Robo Beam will fire. Firing the Robo Beam using a charged forward smash does not reset the Robo Beam's charge.
  • Pummel has an electrical effect and deals more damage.
  • Back aerial hits opponent towards R.O.B.
  • Down aerial propels R.O.B. forward and downwards quickly when used, effectively giving him a "ROBdash"

  • Up tilt no longer meteor smashes and will always produce horizontal knockback.
  • Down tilt is an extremely fast close-range explosion with IASA frames as early as frame 8, with vertical knockback. It causes 1% of self-damage every time it is used.
  • First four hits of Up Smash are Aura instead of fire, simulating Phazon. The final hit is ice instead of fire, and freezes opponents. The whole move links properly.

  • C4 has a larger sticky radius.
  • "Nom" SFX played each time Snake pummels the opponent during a grab.
  • Back throw now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory similar to Wolf's down throw, while the up throw is now a meteor smash.

  • The first hitbox of his forward tilt has increased set knockback, knocking all opponents upward instead of hitting them in place.
  • Down tilt is a semi-spike that makes the opponent slide across the floor when on the ground.
  • Forward smash has two variations, depending on if it's angled or not. When not angled, Snake will shoot one blast, then it will be followed by a second, and then a third blast, each one being a larger and stronger explosion than the last. If angled, Snake will shoot a chain of five blasts that travel forward in rapid succession, with each being weaker than the last.
  • Up smash produces three mortar projectiles instead of one. Mortar and projectiles are colored red.

  • Homing Attack has significantly less ending lag when it hits an opponent or a wall and can be cancelled into any aerial on hit. If it connects with a shield, Sonic will say "Come on, step it up!" and can immediately use another Homing Attack, allowing him to pressure shields.
  • Pressing Down on the Control Stick during Homing Attack's startup will execute the Bounce Attack, a rapid downward attack that bounces off the first thing Sonic hits.
  • The Spring projectile now meteor smashes. It also does not disappear after two bounces - it bounces on any floor it lands on until it is cancelled by an attack or Sonic uses another Spring.
  • Spin Dash is replaced with Sonic Boost, a non-damaging instant ground or air dash faster than his dash that can be canceled into nearly anything.
  • Pummel speed has been drastically increased.
  • Down smash has a unique property, that when a direction is held left or right, Sonic will carry momentum in that direction upon the down smash being finished.
  • Down smash can be canceled into anything after the second hit, and when a Homing Attack is used in the middle of down smash, Sonic will fly off a very long distance in the direction of the down smash momentum. This can lead to SDs on himself.
  • Down aerial now only has one hitbox that sends opponents on a vertical trajectory. Sonic can move horizontally during the down aerial. The attack is interruptible after a period of time.
  • Dash attack has an hit at the very end when Sonic uncurls from a ball. The hit has relatively large hitstun and launches opponents downwards.

  • Boomerang knocks opponents upwards and produces a flower if hitting while returning to Toon Link.
  • Toon Link can move across the ground with a grounded Spin Attack, akin to his Hurricane Slash from Wind Waker, but it has more ending lag at the end. When used for recovering, it also gains more horizontal distance.
  • Bombs are much stronger, being capable of KOing. Toon Link draws them much faster and he can throw them (as well as all other projectile items) at a faster speed, while covering much more distance. Toon Link does not have a limit on the amount of bombs he can pull, and the timer on bombs has been extended.

  • Corkscrew has been removed and replaced with a less powerful fully charged Wario Waft, granting Wario tons of height.
  • A fully charged down special produces a rolling crate. Wario's attacks do less damage to rolling crates.

  • Up aerial has two variants. Releasing the A button withing five frames or usuting the C-Stick will perform the regular version while maitening the A button pressed will make Wario fart, giving him upwards momentum.
  • Down aerial can be used for as long as the A button is held.
  • By pressing A during his back aerial, Wario will fart, pushing him backwards.
  • Wario can move left and right during his forward throw, which has hitboxes added to the thrown opponents and can be extended by holding A.
  • Wario can fart during his side taunt by pressing B.

Wolf

  • Dashing speed has been improved.
  • Blaster shoots out three projectiles that deal slightly less damage each
  • Wolf Flash can be interrupted by an aerial attack at the end; doing so will not leave Wolf helpless afterwards. It can also be cancelled into a Melee air dodge on startup, allowing Wolf to wavedash when on the ground. If sweetspotted, holding B will produce horizontal knockback; otherwise, it will meteor smash.
  • Fire Wolf has significantly increased vertical knockback on the final hit, and has much less ending lag in the air, no longer killing all momentum upon finish.
  • Reflector knocks upwards when grounded and can be cancelled into any aerial airborne.
  • Pummel deals more damage.
  • Forward tilt has decreased, vertical knockback, while dealing more damage.
  • Dash attack moves Wolf forward a good distance instead of halting all movement.
  • Forward smash has two different functions depending if it's angled or not. When not angled, it functions similarly to how it did in normal Brawl, except Wolf slides slightly further at the end. When angled, Wolf will move forward and back very quickly, while hitting with only one hitbox that does light damage with moderate vertical knockback, similar to Weavile. The angled version can be cancelled into Wolf Flash by holding B if it hits.
  • Back slice of down smash produces vertical knockback instead of horizontal.
  • Neutral aerial has more hitboxes, consisting of more hits.
  • Forward aerial is much faster, both start-up and ending lag wise, along with gaining a sweetspot with significantly more vertical knockback.
  • "Play time's over Star Fox!" SFX played during entry.
  • Side taunt has damaging hitboxes added; the second hit has a chance of tripping the opponent and the third produces horizontal knockback.
  • New down taunt: Wolf performs a salute while saying "Play time's over!" if facing right or "Weaklings!" if facing left. The salute can damage for 5%.

Yoshi

  • Has an additional midair jump.
  • Dashing speed has been improved.
  • Aerial attacks can be performed with either the A button or the Z button; when performed with the latter, Yoshi will halt all momentum, akin to a double jump cancel.
  • Egg Lay no longer causes upwards momentum to the laid egg or the escaping opponent
  • Egg Roll no longer leaves Yoshi helpless when ended while airborne, is stronger and can be canceled into any normal move. In addition, it bounces on the ground.
  • Egg Toss has a fire trail and produces a small explosion upon impact, with increased power. Eggs tossed also do not explode until impact with another character, damageable object, or wall/floor.
  • Ground Pound has IASA frames. Notably, interrupting the jump of the grounded version at specific frames will cause Yoshi to rise very high.
  • Forward smash produces a flower.
  • Down smash is stronger, and now sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • Neutral aerial sourspotted hitbox sends opponents on a vertical trajectory instead of horizontally. If none of the move's other hitboxes have hit yet, its last lingering hitbox becomes the powerful "Yoshi Kick", analoguous to Captain Falcon's knee smash.
  • The flutter kicks during Yoshi's down aerial are performed much faster, greatly increasing the speed of the attack.
  • When sweetspotted, the forward aerial is stronger, has drastically increased hitlag, and buries grounded opponent.
  • Up aerial has very weak sourspot hitboxes added.

Zelda

  • Has distant hitboxes added to her jab, all tilts, dash attack, forward smash, forward aerial, back aerial, and down aerial. These distant hitboxes appear as a "magic ball" and have differing effects based on the attack such as the forward and back aerials sending opponents towards Zelda with moderate knockback, the down aerial and down tilt meteor smashing opponents, and the up tilt sending opponents vertically with powerful knockback. If Zelda holds A as the opponent is hit by these hitboxes, she will teleport to where the hitbox is.
  • Zelda's forward tilt now sends out a trail of magic that pushes opponents.
  • Din's Fire is interruptable at any time. It also no longer leaves Zelda helpless if used in the air.
  • The fireball of Din's Fire no longer explodes when hitting a solid surface, but keeps pressing against it. Zelda can hold the move for longer before she is forced to end it and the fireball explodes. If Zelda is hit while using Din's Fire, the fireball keeps heading in the same direction.
  • Two Din's Fires can be fired at once if the special attack button is pressed twice quickly. The second Din's Fire is slower.
  • Farore's Wind has no ending lag when used for recovery, no longer killing all momentum upon finish.
  • Forward and back throws are stronger, while the up throw is much stronger and capable of KOing under 100%.

Zero Suit Samus

  • Dashing and air speed have been improved, short hop jump height has been decreased.
  • Paralyzer travels faster and much further.
  • Plasma Whip has a sourspot hitbox added that hits opponents towards Zero Suit Samus weakly.
  • Pummel speed increased.
  • Forward throw knocks opponents down, no longer being able to chain throw them, while the back throw sends opponents on a semi-spike trajectory.
  • "Be still" SFX played when down throw is used.
  • Forward smash is much stronger when sweetspotted.
  • The knockback of the first kick of the forward aerial has been reduced.
  • Down aerial is no longer a stall-then-fall, behaving like a normal aerial.
  • Power Suit Samus will not transform Zero Suit Samus into Samus unless the L or R button is held.
