-Duck Hunt's true viability has remained unknown by many since the beginning of the metagame. Since ''Ultimate''{{'}}s game mechanics encourage more aggressive gameplay, many players thought that the duo fared worse than they did in ''SSB4''. However, Duck Hunt's competitive reception has improved as the metagame progressed. Many players agree that Duck Hunt have improved considerably overall thanks to their buffs making them more capable at playing aggressively. Although Duck Hunt's camping gameplay is generally agreed to be worse than it was in ''SSB4'', it nevertheless remains a viable strategy for them to fall back on if need be.
+In the early metagame, most players believed Duck Hunt was worse than his ''Smash 4'' counterpart due to ''Ultimate''{{'}}s game mechanics encouraging more aggressive gameplay, which contrasted Duck Hunt's more campy playstyle. Despite this, however, players, most notably {{Sm|Raito}}, showed that their buffs from ''Smash 4'' were effective in making them a viable character in the current game. This helped Duck Hunt's perception in the community, with most people believing the character's viability was on-par with his ''Smash 4'' counterpart.
-So far, Duck Hunt have achieved great results thanks to players such as {{Sm|ASA}}, {{Sm|Wisdom}}, {{Sm|White Girl 6 9}}, and especially {{Sm|Raito}}. However, like in ''SSB4'', Duck Hunt maintain mediocre representation in spite of their respectable results. Although it is unknown what their true viability will be posited as, the general consensus is that they are mid tier.
+However, Duck Hunt's results has since seen a slow decline, due to a stagnant playerbase and declining results from Raito. With buffs not addressing Duck Hunt's worst flaws, including its weak kill power, the current consensus is that Duck Hunt is a solid mid-tier.
