Patches 6.0.0 and 8.0.0 gave Kirby some major improvements, including more KO power and versatility to his aerial attacks, partially restoring his ability to follow-up on platforms, and gaining additional options for kill confirms. Despite these positives, however, Kirby's player base remained small and he sees little results outside of dedicated mains such as {{Sm|Jesuischoq}} and {{Sm|Ferretkuma}}. As such, although some players believe Kirby has mid-tier potential due to having some niche top-tier matchups, most players still consider Kirby to be low tier at best. | Patches 6.0.0 and 8.0.0 gave Kirby some major improvements, including more KO power and versatility to his aerial attacks, partially restoring his ability to follow-up on platforms, and gaining additional options for kill confirms.

Kirby's perception has interestingly grown more positive in the recent meta with many players placing Kirby in varied sections of lower-mid tier, which is a notable improvement compared to his perceived bottom tier status during the game's initial release. Ultimately, Kirby is generally viewed as a much more potent and improved character compared to initial release | Kirby's perception has interestingly grown more positive in the recent meta with many players optimistically placing Kirby near the top of low-tier or in varied sections of lower-mid tier, which is a notable improvement compared to his perceived bottom tier status during the game's initial release. However, Kirby's results in competitive play still seem to be considerably lacking as only his absolute best and most dedicated players, such as {{Sm|JeJaJeJa}} and {{Sm|Jesuischoq}}, would manage to place well in their respective regional tournaments. Kirby's lack of any impact on the current meta as well as his lackluster results would cause most positive outlooks on Kirby to dwindle. Ultimately, while Kirby is generally viewed as a much more potent and improved character compared to initial release, his potential viability and placement in the meta remains a topic for debate. As of now, he ranks 76th on the first and current tier list. | ||
