Template:Pyra and Mythra in competitive play (SSBU)
Use this template to store information relevant to the metagame of Pyra and Mythra in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Since their release, Pyra and Mythra have received very positive reception from competitive players. This is largely owed to Mythra's outstanding mobility and frame data, overall one of the best in the game, alongside her unique Foresight ability, though this is at the cost of her damage output being largely unimpressive. On the other hand, Pyra brings to the table overwhelming power and range, while losing out on mobility and, to an extent, frame data. Their polarized attributes overall complement very well and leave the duo with few collective weaknesses (most notably, an overall mediocre recovery). Although it is unclear how exactly they will fare in the long run due to their recent release and the still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic making offline tournaments relatively sparse at the time of their initial release, thanks to their strengths and results from players such as MkLeo, Sparg0, and Cosmos, most people consider the character to not just be top tier, but one of the best characters in the current metagame.
