Master Hand's Render.
Master Hand and Kirby.
Master Hand teaming up with Crazy Hand.

Master Hand reprises his role as the final boss of Classic Mode in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, at least at the lower intensities. In higher intensities, he is fought along with Crazy Hand. In higher difficulties still, he is replaced mid-battle by the new boss Master Core.

Unlike the previous games, Master Hand and Crazy Hand share a HP meter. They also have new attacks, such as tossing energy balls to one another.

Changes from Brawl to SSB4

An icon for denoting incomplete things.
  • Master Hand has lost several of his staple attacks, losing the Floor Sweep, Flying Slap, and Tri-Poke. These attacks are replaced with completely new ones. He also received a new down throw.
  • Master Hand and Crazy Hand now share the same pool of HP, meaning that the player must contend with both Hands for the majority of the battle.
