Mario

The world-famous plumber.

He can be called a standard character,
one with no strong weaknesses.

With a good balance of speed and skill,
he can handle a variety of battle situations.

As a result, the player's skill
will become significantly more important.

(Pros)

  • Has no real weaknesses or vulnerabilities.
  • Good jumping height.
  • Has a good balance of different types of abilities.

(Cons)

  • Has no real strengths or advantages.
  • Mobility such as dashing speed is not so good.
  • Does not have a strong special move.

Uppercut (strong up attack)
Smash Headbutt (up smash)
Air Slash (up air attack)

  • These moves will knock the opponent upwards.
  • If used well with knowledge of the target's accumulated damage,
    you can keep the opponent in a combo.
  • Examples: Smash Headbutt → Uppercut × α
    → Air Slash (from jump)→ Air Slash (from double jump)

Taunt (L button)

  • Mario's taunt makes him humongous. As well as being obvious,
    it ends when the enlarged hurtbox is hit, and it's very well-liked.
  • Also, this seems to be the longest taunt?

Giant Swing (back throw)

  • The Giant Swing back throw
    can hit other enemies using the one you're throwing.
  • It has very high power for a throw, though I like to use it because it looks cool.

It's hard with those short limbs.

Fireball (normal special move)

  • A projectile that bounces on the ground.
  • When it hits an enemy or item, reaches the end of its life,
    or bounces lower than a fixed height it disappears.
  • Since the fireball falls, shooting in the air
    will hopefully extend the distance and coverage.
  • Easily destroys Motion-Sensor Bombs.

Super Jump Punch (up special move)

  • An impressive rising punch. Can be used to recover.
  • Hits up to 9 times; a coin will pop out for every hit.
    ...you cannot earn a 1-Up by collecting coins.
  • At the start of the move, Mario is invincible for 4 frames.
    This is when the strongest part of the attack is.
  • When the move is over, the dropping pratfall state is entered.
Dropping pratfall:A state where you cannot jump or use any attacks.
See technique 37.

Mario Tornado (down special move)

  • Involves spinning the enemy around, tossing them straight up at the end.
  • Hits with both arms when you're on the ground,
    while when you're in the air there are additional hitboxes on the head and feet.
  • The hitboxes on the arms hit those on the right to the left and those on the left to the right.
    As a result, the opponent is trapped.
  • By pounding the B button, you can float in the air a little.
    If you are even slightly in the air, the aerial hitboxes are used.
  • While spinning, you have limited side-to-side movement.
  • If Mario has you caught in this,
    keep flicking the stick left or right,
    so you might escape by hit stop shift.
