==Changes from ''Brawl''==
==Changes from ''Brawl''==
Initially, Diddy Kong was heavily [[buff]]ed in his transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4'' despite [[Tier list|already being a top tier character]], but as of [[List of updates (SSB4)/1.0.8 changelog|patch 1.0.8]], he is considered to be slightly [[nerf]]ed overall. He has received a major nerf to his {{B|Banana Peel|move}} move, which was previously the key to his past success, and many attacks deal less damage, weakening his damage racking abilities. To make up these nerfs however, he has attained many new easily usable combos, which are further benefited by the changes to [[hitstun]] canceling, and some of his moves were buffed to KO better. Overall, he is still seen as one of the most successful characters in competitive play, albeit not nearly as much as in early versions of the game.
