Mario (マリオ, Mario) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. 4. He was confirmed on June 11th, 2013 during the E3 2013 Nintendo Direct. He was also one of the main subjects of the Developer's Direct for Smash Bros. later during E3 2013. He was among the first wave of amiibo figurines for SSB4. Mario is once again voiced by Charles Martinet, who also reprises his long-time role as Luigi, Wario, and Waluigi, albeit mostly with the same voice clips from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Attributes

As expected, Mario is one of the most balanced characters in SSB4, possessing no overwhelming strengths or weaknesses. As such, players are often encouraged to start off as Mario to get a feel of the games' mechanics. Mario's strength, weight, and mobility are average in comparison to a majority of the cast, and aside from wall-jumping, he has no real outstanding traits like many other characters. However, this does not mean Mario is helpless; while he may not boast superior strength found in heavyweights like Bowser, or speed in characters such as Sonic, he is well-equipped to combat all characters and tackle any situation, making him a very reliable and well-rounded character.

Mario has decent approach and spacing options; his dashing speed is average and he boasts the eighth fastest air speed in the game, allowing him to cover ground and get close to opponent(s) without much trouble. If he requires space from his opponents, however, Mario can find reliance within his Fireball, Cape, and F.L.U.D.D. specials: his Fireball projectiles have good range, decent speed, and can disrupt opponents at a distance; Cape is quick and can spin his foes around and reflect projectiles, which can ensure safety if his opponents get to close or are taking a long-ranged and/or camping approach; and F.L.U.D.D. can push fighters away or halt them in their track and can cut through projectiles.

Mario possesses quick, low lag attacks that always provide some utility in various situations. With his mobility and attacks, Mario undoubtedly possesses one of the best combo and juggling ability in the game, which are perhaps his greatest strengths. While his damage output is merely average, his approach, combos, and juggles can ensure he can rack up damage on nearly the same level as the fastest characters in the game. His overall knockback is also decent and a number of his attacks, primarily his smashes and aerials, can KO well into the early-to-mid 100s. However, more often than not will players find they need to create set-ups before Mario can get in any kills, which can be quite a challenge as most characters can trump Mario in a specific field (which is where Mario can mainly find trouble). However, this can be remedied by the rage mechanic; Mario is unique from most other non-heavyweights in that he can benefit from the knockback increase induced by rage without nearly any of his combos getting affected thanks to his approach options, allowing for more reliable kills. However, as rage comes from taking damage, Mario is at equal risk of being KOed himself.

Mario also boasts one of the most reliable throwing games; while his grab range is sub-par (despite being better than in previous installments), his throws are versatile, as his back and forward throw can set up gimp KOs when used from the edge of a stage (and his back throw itself can KO at high percentages from an edge), and his down and up throw can set up combos, especially with his down throw if followed up by his strong up attack.

Despite being a conventional character, Mario has a few gimmicks, all of which help him surprisingly excel at edgeguarding. His forward aerial is an extremely reliable meteor smash when sweetspotted, albeit its high startup and ending lag makes a rather risky move to use offstage. His back aerial can be used for walls of pain and knock fighters farther away from the stage for edgeguarding. Mario's Fireballs can also gimp recoveries; their low knockback makes them effective in that regard. F.L.U.D.D. is another powerful edgeguarding tool that pushes enemies back without causing hitstun, allowing it to cleanly gimp characters who are helpless after using their up special. Most notably, however, Mario has what is likely the absolute best edgeguarding weapon in all the game: his Cape. When used, it can effectively and quickly gimp almost every recovery in the game, particularly if used after F.L.U.D.D.; it is especially useful against linear recoveries and helpless fighters trying to get to the ledge. His Cape can also be used to save himself from being edgeguarded, as well as give a small aid in his recovery.

Despite all these advantages, however, Mario is not without his faults: as mentioned above, he can be outclassed by characters who excel in a specific field, such as Sonic in speed, Luigi in comboing, Bowser in knockback, etc., which can hinder his approaching options. His approach can also be hindered by characters with long-range or disjointed hitboxes, such as Shulk, mostly thanks to his own mediocre attack range. His recovery is also sub-par, as his Super Jump Punch is predictable and its distance is only slightly above average, making it easy to gimp Mario's recovery. While he can add mix-up to his recovery with his wall-jump, it can be difficult to execute due to most stages not having flat walls to perform it with, making it risky.

Mario's custom moves are highly polarized in comparison to his balanced default moves, and thus effectively define the basics of alternate movesets. This allows a Mario player to either cover a hole in his abilities while possibly creating another, or put everything into excelling in a certain area. His Fireball alternatives are a common custom archetype of speed vs. power: Fast Fireball is much quicker, but weaker and doesn't follow gravity, while Fire Orb is much bigger and stronger, hitting multiple times, but is incredibly sluggish to throw and has almost no range. Similarly, Gust Cape deals less damage in exchange for producing a blast of wind that can push opponents some distance, while Shocking Cape is much more powerful when hitting with the cape itself, but only destroys projectiles instead of reflecting, and gives no aerial boost. His Super Jump Punch customs are also a common up-special archetype of recovery vs. power: Super Jump goes higher, but cannot hit enemies, while Explosive Punch hits incredibly hard, but gives less height. His F.L.U.D.D alternatives both give a power increase, but in different ways: Scalding F.L.U.D.D. charges faster and damages enemies instead of pushing, but this takes away its edgeguarding potential over helpless enemies as a result, as well as having worse range, whereas High-Pressure F.L.U.D.D. pushes much harder and has improved range, but takes longer to charge, and the recoil pushes Mario backwards.

All-in-all, Mario is the jack-of-all-trades who can go up against anyone with near-guaranteed reliability, but is not truly a master in any specific fields, though he has a noticeable advantage against fighters with linear recoveries and has one of the best combo capability in the game. Nonetheless, Mario is a choice that most can rely on and easily master.

Changes from Brawl

Mario has been noticeably buffed from Brawl to SSB4, given that he was a low-tier character. He is considerably nimbler and stronger than in past games, and is much more capable of comboing and KOing. His reach is somewhat greater as well. One of the only notable nerfs Mario seems to suffer from is an overall decrease in damage output. Also, as many characters with disjointed hitboxes who were a large threat to Mario in Brawl, such as Marth, were nerfed or reworked, Mario can now handle them more easily than in previous games. Furthermore, the change to the ledge mechanics makes his linear recovery harder to edgeguard. Lastly, in tournaments and other situations where custom specials are available, his edgeguarding game is improved further with tools such as Fast Fireball, Gust Cape, and High-Pressure F.L.U.D.D., all of which are potent at gimping. Overall, Mario has received major buffs to his maneuverability and combo game.

Aesthetics

• Instead of the more realistic look he had in Brawl, Mario has a more cartoonish and sleeker look that more closely resembles his appearances in the Mario games. His clothes are more brightly colored, and the seams in his overalls are much less accentuated. His proportions are more inline with recent 3D Mario games such as Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World. For example, his head is smaller than it was in Brawl to fit with these proportions.
• The sound Mario's up taunt makes is similar to the sound heard when obtaining a power-up in the recent Mario games.
• When a Fireball hits a foe, the sound effect when an enemy is defeated in Super Mario Bros. plays.
• Fireballs look more realistic, with smoke and ashes coming out of the flames on each Fireball. The same thing applies with the Mario Finale.
• Hitting with the Cape now makes a sound effect akin to Mario spinning his cape in Super Mario World, but at a faster and higher-pitched sound.
• Super Jump Punch makes a slightly higher-pitched "ding" on the last hit.
• The coins from the Super Jump Punch are now rendered in 3D and designed to look closer to the Star Coins from the New Super Mario Bros. series.
• After using or fully charging F.L.U.D.D., it does not stay on his back.
• Mario's chest faces the foreground regardless of whether he's facing left or right.

Attributes

• Mario has significantly increased air speed (0.94 → 1.15), going from tied for 19th fastest in Brawl to tied for 8th fastest in SSB4.
• Mario jumps considerably higher.
• Mario dashes slightly faster (1.5 → 1.6).
• Mario's falling speed has been increased (1.28 → 1.5) making him less vulnerable to juggling but slightly more susceptible to combos.
• Mario's traction has been significantly decreased (0.6 → 0.45), going from 11th best in Brawl to tied for the 10th worst in SSB4. This makes it harder for him to punish out of shield.

Ground attacks

• Jab, forward tilt, up tilt, and dash attack deal less damage (9%, 8%, 7%, and 9/7% → 8%, 7%, 5%, and 8/6% respectively).
• Down tilt has much less ending lag, allowing it to be a close range spacer and combo move.
• Up tilt has had its knockback severely reduced, drastically increasing its comboing and juggling ability to the point that it is able to deal around 20% damage on most characters if used repeatedly.
• Due to its reduced knockback, up tilt is no longer a reliable KO move.
• Forward smash has a larger blast radius, giving it a larger hitbox. It also has slightly more knockback growth (90 → 99).
• Up smash has slightly more knockback growth (90 → 94).
• Down smash's back hit has more knockback (35 base/75 growth → 30 base/100 growth), making it a viable KO option at high percents.
• Down smash's front hit deals much less damage (15% → 10%) and can no longer KO under 150% unless used near the edge.

Aerial attacks

• Forward aerial is faster and deals more damage (13% → 14%). It also has increased base knockback (20 base → 32 base).
• Back aerial is much easier to use for a wall of pain due to Mario's much faster air speed and high jump.
• Up aerial angle changed from 55 degrees to 75 degrees which makes it a much better combo move.
• Neutral, down, up and back aerials deal less damage (10%, 12%, 11%, and 12% → 8%, 10%, 7%, and 10.5% respectively), with their knockback compensated except for neutral aerial.
• Back and up aerials have 2 more frames of landing lag (10 → 12 frames).
• The hits of Mario Tornado link to one another drastically better than in Brawl. The final hit also deals significantly more knockback growth (80 → 100).

Throws/other attacks

• Mario now grabs with one hand as opposed to two. He still uses both hands during his pummel, however.
• Mario's grab range is slightly better.
• All throws deal 1% less damage.
• Back throw deals slightly more knockback growth (63 → 66), but its slight damage reduction results slightly less knockback overall despite the growth increase.
• Down throw has drastically less base knockback (75 → 40), allowing it to combo into other moves more reliably at lower percentages, most notably up tilt.
• Down throw's angle is more horizontal (80 degrees → 68 degrees) and gained much more knockback growth (40 → 90), which makes followups less reliable at higher percents.

Special moves

• Fireballs have higher falling speed, allowing them to hit the ground faster. They also travel significantly further in the air.
• Fireballs have more start-up lag (frame 13 → 16), have much more ending lag (IASA 43 → 53), and their damage relies on distance rather than consistently doing 5%.
• Mario can dash over an edge and grab it right after flinging Cape if timed correctly.
• Cape deals slightly less damage and gives less lift in the air. Additionally, Cape Gliding is no longer possible, weakening Mario's approach with Cape.
• Super Jump Punch gains more recovery distance.
• F.L.U.D.D.'s range and pushforce has been increased.
• Mario Finale deals more damage. Its start-up also dramatically slows opponents down, making it much easier to land the attack especially in close range.

Update history

1.0.4

• Up tilt deals less damage (6.3% → 5.5%), but the slight knockback decrease the damage reduction brings makes it slightly easier to followup at high percentage.

1.0.6

• Part of forward smash made irreversible.
• Part of Mario's forward smash's hitbox moved slightly higher.

Trophies

Mario

As iconic as iconic gets, this gaming celebrity is known for saving the world from Bowser. He's got amazing jumping skills and makes use of a wide range of transformations. In his free time, he plays too many sports to count. In Smash Bros., he's a well-rounded fighter you can rely on. Say it with me: "It's-a me, Mario!"

It's-a him! Maaario! Whether he's wearing one of his special outfits or just his normal blue dungarees, this running, jumping, Bowser-bashing, princess-saving hero is an all-round superstar. And in this game, he's got enough tricks up his sleeve to deal with anything. If you don't know which fighter to pick, Mario's a solid choice.

Mario (Alt.)

Super Jump Punch is an up-special move that lets you leap high into the air, carrying any fighters you strike along with you. You'll be invincible for a moment after you launch this attack. The default side-special move, Cape, will flip a fighter around. Keep a foe from returning with this move!

Mario's Super Jump Punch takes you high into the air, and if you catch an opponent with it, they'll go up with you. Try to hit them at the very start of the move to do the most damage. His default side special, Cape, can flip fighters around. If you're really crafty, you can even use it to keep someone from getting back on the stage!

Mario Finale

Break the Smash Ball and unleash Mario's Final Smash. Mario will fire a devastating blast of fire in the direction he's facing. The attack covers a wide range and travels far, so it's best to fire this from one side of the stage to the other. The damage is impressive, and it can actually carry foes right off the screen!

When Mario gets his hands on a Smash Ball, he can activate this Final Smash. Flames spiral outwards in two intertwining stream, catching opponents in the wide blast with ease. It deals plenty of damage, and can also push foes off the screen entirely. Fire it from an elevated position to take full advantage of its vertical range!
