Samus returns in ''Brawl'', with a generalized design drawing aspects from multiple ''Metroid'' games. Her appearance is based off her design from ''Metroid Zero Mission''. She appears to essentially be the same fighter she was in ''Melee'', but Samus also has a brand new ability. Once her [[Final Smash]], the [[Zero Laser]], is used, Samus's power suit will be destroyed and will fall off, thus becoming {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}. In ''Brawl'', her [[metroidwiki:Varia Suit|Varia Suit]] [[Palette swap (SSBB)#Samus|color can be changed]] so it resembles some of her other suits, like the [[metroidwiki:Fusion Suit|Fusion Suit]] or [[metroidwiki:Dark Suit|Dark Suit]], but retains the Varia Suit's shape and strength. When her suit color is changed in such a way, her [[metroidwiki:Zero Suit|Zero Suit]] color also becomes different in and has different markings on the back. Her tier ranking is far lower than it was in Melee (32nd out of 38, in F tier) due to her severely [[nerfed]] KO power and projectiles.
