Zero Suit Samus is a playable character in the Brawl mod Project M. She is the main protagonist from the Metroid series of games, though without her normal Power Suit. She was buffed between Brawl and PM, with many new tools given to her to aid in comboing opponents.
Attributes
Changes from Brawl to PM
- Her short hop is shorter, helping with movement, aerial approaches, and combos.
- With Project M's improved tether recovery mechanics and a more versatile Flip Jump, Zero Suit Samus's recovery is much more efficient in general.
- Her forward smash does 4% more damage, and is stronger and is a good KO option after a down smash. Hitting foes behind her sends them up over her, allowing to punish them with aerials.
- New down aerial does 7% more damage, now doing 12%, and is no longer a stall-then-fall, but a stomp that bounces her upwards upon connecting. It has overall much more utility than her previous down aerial, easily popping up foes for combos, and also useful for edgeguarding.
- Paralyzer can now be dash canceled.
- Plasma Whip now sends foes diagonally towards her, making it easier to start combos with the move.
- When using Flip Jump, pressing or holding the special button near opponents results in Zero Suit Samus footstooling and tripping them, aptly named a "flipstool", giving her a new option for tech-chasing.
- Her Final Smash was improved; its initiation now produces consecutive-hitting hitboxes that drag foes in, rather than wind. There is a strong hit comes as she becomes fully cloaked with increased knockback for a total of 43% damage.
- Jab combo is faster on hit.
- Her new down special when used as an attack acts as her old down air, except it does much more damage and is a kill move.
- Up smash does 5% more damage, now doing 17% total.
- Up throw is a better combo starter at lower percents
- Back air sweetspot is very slightly stronger as a kill move.
- Up tilt has more knockback growth.
- Dash attack does 2% more damage, now doing 9%.
- Foward tilt does 3% more damage, and has drastically increased knockback.
- Neutral air has faster start-up.
- Foward air connects much more smoothly especially at higher percents.
- Plasma wire does 6% less damage on the ground, now doing 9%.
- Up smashes knockback was not compensated for Project M.
- Neutral air is a very very slightly weaker kill move.
- Foward air does 2% less damage, now doing 15% total.
- Up throw does 2% less damage, now doing 8%.
- Back air sourspot does 2% less damage, now doing 10%.
- Opponents can now mash out of paralysis-inducing moves, causing followups to be harder to perform against quick enough players.
- Plasma Whip deals weaker damage and knockback, and is no longer a KO option.
- On-screen appearance and transformation from Samus no longer produce Power Suit Pieces as items; these will always vanish when the animations are done, encouraging close-range combat.
- Flip Jump has a new somersaulting animation, and its trajectory can be controlled rather than being directly diagonal; it gives less vertical distance, but can be angled for more horizontal distance. Pressing the attack button no longer creates a meteor smashing sex kick but instead results in her down aerial from Brawl, with increased power.
