Daisy (デイジー, Daisy) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. She was revealed as a newcomer alongside Inkling and Ridley on June 12th, 2018. She is an Echo Fighter of Peach, thus being classified as fighter #13ε.
Deanna Mustard's portrayals of Daisy in the Mario games, mainly Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8, were repurposed for Ultimate.
Attributes
Daisy is a tall, light character who is quite slow in terms of walking speed, dashing speed, air speed and falling speed. While this is an unfavorable combination of traits, it is compensated by her unique floating ability. Her float ability grants her the power to hover at any height she chooses, giving her a distinct advantage in combat. This, combined with a potent aerial moveset, makes her a force to be reckoned with.
Daisy can play an effective keep-away game. Vegetable serves as her projectile, and as a throwable item, it is quite a versatile one; the move also has a 1/250 chance of spawning a powerful Bob-omb and a 1/166 chance of spawning a shield-shattering Mr. Saturn. Peach's floating ability also helps her to control space; floating low to the ground and using retreating aerials makes her difficult to punish, and this greatly helps her own approach as well, as with good spacing she can attack the opponent's shield with little fear of reprisal. Float can increase her mobility and movement options, allowing her to frustrate her opponents with quick and unpredictable mixups. Her tilt attacks are less safe, but given the right opportunity have decent combo potential. She has a decent grab game, as her down throw can be followed up with a variety of moves and her back throw is relatively strong. All of this gives her a solid set of options in the neutral game.
Daisy does not have trouble KOing, either. Her forward aerial's high knockback makes it her best finishing move, and it can be used while floating to "fish" for a kill with relative safety. Back throw is also a good KO option. Floating allows for effective edgeguarding as well, potentially leading to early KOs. Daisy also has a potent if somewhat situational set of smash attacks; her forward smash cycles through three weapons each with their own useful properties, her down smash is a multi-hit attack good for catching rolls and edge recovery options, and her up smash is a particularly powerful move when sweetspotted.
Daisy does of course have drawbacks, mainly relating to her slow movement. Faster opponents may be able to overwhelm her before she can begin throwing vegetables or otherwise defend herself. If thrown into the air she can have difficulty landing, and this along with her low weight makes her susceptible to juggling and vertical KOs. Daisy's ability to approach suffers against characters with long reach and disjoints, as she lacks the agility to get in close before they can hit her. Her recovery is also a potential point of failure, as while she can travel a great deal of horizontal distance, she is left vulnerable if forced to rely on Daisy Parasol, and her vertical recovery is average at best (discounting the incredibly dangerous and situational Bob-omb), as well as predictable and slow, making it possible for her to be gimped. Due to this, Daisy has a very high learning curve.
How to unlock
Complete one of the following:
- Play VS. matches, with Daisy being the 28th character to be unlocked.
- Clear Classic Mode with Fox or anyone in his unlock tree, being the fifth character unlocked after Falco.
- Have Daisy join the player's party in World of Light.
With the exception of the third method, Daisy must then be defeated on Figure-8 Circuit.
Differences from Peach
Unlike all other Echo Fighters, Daisy is completely identical to Peach in every single way possible, aside from having different animations for standing and running that affect the size and shape of her hurtbox, and numerous aesthetic differences. In earlier versions, her turnips from Vegetable had different knockback from Peach's (with their knockback sharing their same values as Brawl and Smash 4) although this was changed in version 3.0.0 to match Peach's turnips.
Aesthetics
As with all other Echo Fighters, Daisy has different taunts and victory animations.- Daisy's on-screen appearance is different.
- Daisy has a more energetic idle stance, with her arms held up by her side, and different idle poses. However, she reverts to Peach's idle animation when picking up light items.
- Daisy only has two unique idle animations, compared to Peach's four.
- Daisy's dashing and turnaround animations are different, resembling her run animation in Mario Party 10, though her initial dash animation is identical.
- Daisy uses a Blue Toad instead of using Toad for her counter and throws.
- Daisy has flower and petal effects for several of her attacks, including her dash attack, back aerial, up tilt, up smash and side special, instead of hearts.
- The tennis racket used in Daisy's forward smash has a different design, matching the one she uses in the Mario Tennis games.
- Daisy's Final Smash, Daisy Blossom, summons giant daisies instead of peaches, and is themed around herself.
Attributes
Daisy crouches slightly during her idle animation. This makes her harder to hit vertically.
However Daisy's idle having arms held up by her side expands her hurtbox, making her easier to hit sideways.
- Daisy's hurtbox is wider when she runs and when she reverses her running animation.
Update history
Much like her original parent, Daisy has been largely nerfed overall, and also became the first full clone character to receive more nerfs than buffs. Additionally, update 3.0.0 altered the knockback values of Vegetable to match Peach's variant, removing the only genuine gameplay difference between the two.
- The animation for Toad has been adjusted.
- Dash attack's knockback growth has been reduced (140 → 130).
- Daisy Parasol's multi hits have reduced knockback.
- This makes it less likely for the move to KO at 0%.
- Consecutive hits will connect better in some scenarios.
- It is now easier to grab ledges with Daisy Parasol.
Daisy Blossom's camera has been adjusted. The borders will now always display correctly in scrolling stages.
- Toad no longer stalls continuously in the air after the first use.
- The launch angles of Daisy Parasol's multihits have been adjusted, preventing scenarios where the opponent would be launched at a great distance when hit from the ledge.
- Vegetable's knockback values have been adjusted (30 (base), 35 (scaling) → 25/45), making them identical to Peach's variant, improving both their combo and KO potential.
- However, this limits their combo potential at higher percents.
- Vegetable deals less shield damage.
- Daisy Blossom has a reduced sleep time period.
- The animations for Daisy's ledge attack and swinging animation have been adjusted.
- Daisy's dress physics were adjusted. It is now less likely for her animations to show visible seams or artifacts.
- Neutral attack 1 connects into neutral attack 2 more reliably.
- Forward smash has more knockback scaling when using the golf club (61/63 → 65/68).
- Forward aerial has less knockback scaling (78 (clean)/76 (sourspot) → 74/71).
- Back throw has less knockback scaling (95 (throw)/200 (collateral) → 88/100), no longer KOing at reasonable percents.
- Daisy Bomber has more ending lag if it connects (FAF 19 → 25).
- Daisy Parasol's hits connect more reliably.
- Vegetable has more ending lag (FAF 37 → 40).
Moveset
- Daisy can float for 2.5 seconds.
Note: All numbers are listed as base damage, without the 1v1 multiplier.
| Name | Damage | Description | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral attack | 2% | Slaps the enemy twice with her leading arm: the first being an inward forehand slap, and the second being an outward backhand slap. At low percentages, the first hit can lock. | ||
| 3% | ||||
| Forward tilt | 7% (early, clean leg), 8% (clean foot) | Kicks forward 180 degrees from low to high. Has good range for a forward tilt, and unusually for an attack of its type, launches opponents vertically, allowing it to perform air combos. | ||
| Up tilt | 10% (blast), 8% (arm) | Extends her arm upward, creating a discharge of orange magic in the form of a flower. | ||
| Down tilt | 7% | A low sweep kick. This move meteor smashes grounded opponents. Decently strong attack with moderate startup that can follow up into a forward smash at lower percents, forward or up aerials at mid-percents, and into an up special at higher percents. | ||
| Dash attack | 4% (hit 1), 6% (hit 2) | Creating magical sparks in her hands, Daisy strikes with both arms extended forward, then quickly spreads her arms out. | ||
| Forward smash | ↗ | 18% (frying pan) | Strikes with a bludgeon, depending on the angle of the smash attack: angling upward uses a frying pan, angling downward uses the tennis racket, and no angling uses the golf club. Each weapon has different properties—the frying pan has more vertical knockback (and the most damage), the golf club has more diagonal knockback (and the most range), and the tennis racket has more horizontal knockback and is a strong semi-spike. | |
| → | 15% (golf club) | |||
| ↘ | 13.5% (tennis racket) | |||
| Up smash | Ribbon Dance | 12% (ribbon), 17% (flower) | Raises her arm and twirls an orange ribbon. A flower appears at the tip of the ribbon, which is where the sweetspot is located. Her head and arm become intangible for the duration of the move (frames 14-20). | |
| Down smash | 2% (hits 1-6), 3% (hit 7) | Daisy does a counterclockwise spin on her left leg and utilizes the edge of her dress, slashing multiple times. | ||
| Neutral aerial | 13% (clean), 6% (late arms), 5% (late body) | Spins around at an angle with arms extended, dealing damage to her left and right sides. The late hit can lock. | ||
| Forward aerial | 15% (crown), 14% (arm) | Daisy grabs the crown off her head and strikes with it in a vertical arc with magic sparkles. Has the slowest startup out of all her aerial attacks. However, it is also her strongest aerial, if sweetspotted. Her arm possesses a sourspot that deals 1% less damage, and KOs much later. | ||
| Back aerial | 12% (clean), 10.2% (mid), 7% (late) | Daisy strikes behind her by thrusting her rear. She creates a flower, although it is aesthetic and possesses no hitbox. At low percent, even hitting clean, can lock. | ||
| Up aerial | 4% (hit 1), 6% (hit 2) | Swipes above her head with her arms from left to right, creating 2 magic rainbow trails. When low floating, only the second hit will hit medium to large opponents, while small characters avoid it entirely. | ||
| Down aerial | 2% (hits 1-3), 5% (hit 4) | Rapidly kicks straight downwards four times. Depending on how the last hit lands, may launch opponents behind her. From a short hop, it can even combo into another down aerial after her double jump. | ||
| Grab | — | Reaches out with her arm. | ||
| Pummel | 1.3% | The Toad punches the opponent. | ||
| Forward throw | 2% (hit 1), 8% (throw) | The Toad leaps forward, headbutting the opponent away. | ||
| Back throw | 2% (hit 1), 9% (throw) | Places opponent behind her and bumps them away with her rear. The Toad is present, mimicking her rear thrust, but does not contribute any damage. The strongest of Daisy's throws. | ||
| Up throw | 2% (hit 1), 6% (throw) | Puts opponent above her, and strikes them upward. The Toad leaps up with Daisy, but does not hit the opponent. | ||
| Down throw | 1% (hit 1), 7% (throw) | After putting the opponent on the ground, the Toad leaps up and headbutts them, sending them upwards and behind Daisy. Good for starting combos, as it can lead to her back air and forward tilt at low to mid percents. | ||
| Forward roll Back roll Spot dodge Air dodge |
— | — | ||
| Techs | — | — | ||
| Floor attack (front) Floor getups (front) |
7% | Swirls around in a similar fashion to Mario's down smash. | ||
| Floor attack (back) Floor getups (back) |
7% | Swings her legs around. | ||
| Floor attack (trip) Floor getups (trip) |
5% | Two kicks to either side. | ||
| Edge attack Edge getups |
9% | While getting up, sweep kicks in front of her. | ||
| Neutral special | Toad | 3.5% (per hit) | Daisy covers her ears and turns away as a Toad appears in front of her, arms spread out. If hit, the Toad will retaliate with a spray of spores, and Daisy will wince. If attacked from behind, Daisy and the Toad switch places. Direction can be switched manually, but it has strict timing. | |
| Side special | Daisy Bomber | 12% | Daisy lunges her body forward to deliver a powerful bash with her rear. Upon impact, she rebounds away from the victim, allowing for hit-and-run tactics. Deals considerable shield damage. Smash-inputting the move has her travel further. | |
| Up special | Daisy Parasol | 3% (first hit), 1% (hits 2-5), 2% (last hit), 2% (open) | Daisy jumps upward and then opens a parasol similar to Peach's, jabbing those above her in the process. It can then be used as a directional glide but can also be opened or closed at will. | |
| Down special | Vegetable | Varies | Plucks a Vegetable from Super Mario Bros. 2 from the ground. She can then throw it as a projectile item. Its face determines how much damage it will do; the rarer the expression, the stronger the turnip. Along with turnips, Daisy can rarely pull out Mr. Saturns and Bob-ombs. | |
| Final Smash | Daisy Blossom | 30% (close), 20% (mid), 10% (far) | Daisy performs a dance, causing all of her enemies to fall asleep. The closer they are to her when she activates it, the more damage they will take and the longer they will slumber. Three giant flowers appear, healing 20%. This Final Smash fails to affect anyone outside the range of the screen borders. | |
| Face | Power Level | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| Grin | 5 | 60.14% |
| Stare | 5 | 10.14% |
| Closed Eyes | 5 | 8.62% |
| Surprised | 5 | 5.17% |
| Happy | 5 | 5.14% |
| Wink | 10 | 6.89% |
| Dot-Eyes | 16 | 1.72% |
| Stitch-Face | 24 | 1.72% |
| Mr. Saturn | 7~9% | 0.6% |
| Bob-omb | 25~36% | 0.4% |
On-screen appearance
- Appears spinning out of a shower of flower petals and enthusiastically waves to the camera, yelling "Yo-ooo!".
Taunts

- Puts her hands on her hips and shakes them while winking.
Victory poses
- Stretches her back towards her right side, then points skyward while exclaiming "Yeah!".

Role in World of Light
Although Daisy does not appear in the World of Light opening cutscene, she was vaporized and later imprisoned alongside the rest of the fighters (sans Kirby) when Galeem unleashed his beams of light.
Daisy was one of the many fighters that fell under Dharkon's control upon Galeem's first defeat. She is found in the Dracula's Castle sub-area where she is guarded by a ghost; the nearby Dry Bowser spirit must be freed to access the cannon able to destroy the ghost.

Trivia
- Daisy is the first and so far only clone to not have any mechanical differences from her base fighter.
- Richter and Dark Samus also do not have any major changes to their attack properties or attributes either, but they have different elemental properties for certain attacks.
- However, her Vegetables had different knockback values prior to 3.0.0.
- As an Echo Fighter of Peach with an identical moveset, Daisy utilizes several abilities exclusive to Peach that she never uses in the Mario series, such as floating, the use of a frying pan, and putting people to sleep.
- Despite utilizing a Toad in her neutral special, grabs, and throws, Daisy has no affiliation with them in the Mario games. However, in Mario Strikers Charged, Daisy uses Blue Toad sidekicks as part of her soccer team, like in Ultimate. Additionally, if she defeats Bowser in Super Mario Run, she rescues Toad as a reward.
- Aside from a unique color scheme for the Peach Parasol glider in Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (which is shared with Baby Daisy in the latter two games), Daisy has never been shown using a parasol similar to Peach's.
- It should be noted one of Daisy's artworks from Mario Party 3 has her hovering midair with an umbrella like Peach. However, this refers to the Parasol Plummet minigame, where all characters, not just Peach, use umbrellas while descending.
- Many of Daisy's animations and artwork are reminiscent of her playable appearances in numerous Mario spin-offs:
- Daisy's victory animations resemble her victory celebrations in Mario spin-offs such as Mario Golf: World Tour, Mario Tennis Aces, and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.
- Daisy's running animation references the Mario Party series, specifically Mario Party DS and 10.
- Daisy's pose in her official artwork resembles a piece of artwork from Mario Tennis for the Nintendo 64, only mirrored.
- Daisy's pose for one of her taunts matches promotional artwork of her first used for Mario Kart 7.
- Daisy's pose in the group artwork for Ultimate is based on her back throw animation.
- Daisy is one of only two newcomers in Ultimate to not have splash art and an introduction tagline, the other being Inkling.
- Daisy is the only Ultimate newcomer revealed during E3 to not be playable in the E3 demo.
- Additionally, she's the only newcomer revealed there that does not to appear in any of the veteran's galleries on the official website.
- Daisy is the only Echo Fighter to be featured on the full version of the box art.
- Daisy and Dark Samus are the only Echo Fighters to be cloned from female characters.
- Daisy was the first character to be shown on the new victory screen.
- Daisy is the only newcomer (and only Echo Fighter) who uses both hands while hanging on an edge.
- She is also the only one who cannot meteor smash with any of her aerial attacks at all. Although Joker's down aerial does not meteor smash under normal circumstances, doing so is possible when Arsene is active.
- Daisy is one of five characters whose unlocking battle in World of Light is not on either Final Destination or an Ω form. The other four are Peach, King K. Rool, Toon Link, and Mii Gunner.
- Daisy's winking expression is not mirrored as she always winks with her left eye, regardless of which direction she's facing. This also applies to Peach and Jigglypuff.
- In Jigglypuff's case, this only applies whenever it winces one eye from taking damage.
- Oddly, the bottom lace at Daisy's dress vanishes when viewed from inside her dress.[1] This was not present in her early gameplay screenshots, most notably the third screenshot of her attacking Link.
- Additionally, looking closely at Daisy's neck reveals a small gap in around her collar.[2]
- The underside of Daisy's dress is not obscured by shadows, unlike Peach's dress. Instead, the section where Daisy's undergarments would be seen is textured black.
- If Daisy crouches while holding a throwable item, her mouth will be open.
