He wasn’t the most overpowered character in 64, but Kirby still makes this top ten list. Kirby also had a solid down air and some uneven hitboxes that could be used very quickly to a player’s advantage. Kirby had the best recovery in the game, which allowed him to perform attacks off stage that many other characters in the game could not do. Masahiro Sakurai was also the Kirby franchise’s creator, so it comes as no surprise that he was so overpowered in the first installment in the Smash franchise. It wasn’t an exciting play style for fans to watch, but it certainly was effective. The player could then rack up enough damage that eventually an up throw would kill. Since there are two ice climbers, only one of them needs to be close enough to initiate a grab. Once an opponent is grabbed, the player must quickly perform a down throw and then immediately grab again. Popo and Nana were infamous for their chain grab combo, which results in a slow, annoying death if performed correctly. Ice Climbers from Brawl won’t make the top spot for this list, but they certainly could take the cake in terms of the most annoying move of all time. He has large hitboxes, and his Thunder (down special) move could kill at low percent once his opponent is in the air. It was not as easy as it is in more recent versions of Smash to recover, and Pikachu made doing so a nightmare for opposing players. Pikachu in Smash 64 was easily the best character in the game thanks to his edge-guarding ability and excellent recovery.
#SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL FOX SERIES#
Pikachu was the first character in series history that had fans wondering how Nintendo could’ve developed a character so much stronger than the others. Thankfully for fans of the series, Cloud was heavily nerfed in Smash Ultimate, so using him in doubles would not be unfair. Doubles players perfected using his limit meter in performing ridiculous combos that could kill at a very low percent. He was a perfect doubles character, as his attacks had huge hitboxes, along with having some of the most powerful attacks in the game. RankĪlthough Cloud was also a top tier player in singles play in Smash 4, he was nearly unbeatable in doubles play. When perfected, the Melee iteration of Fox is almost unbeatable. He has some of the quickest attacks in the game, can rack up easy damage with his blaster and can deal out some nasty combos using his shine (down special) attack. The character has amassed almost a cult-like following as a result of so many people using Fox in the game. Rankįox (along with his very similar counterpart Falco) is the top choice for a broken character from Melee. However, these nerfs were not enough to stop the best Bayonetta players from exploiting her in the game, and she still is the best character in the game. The character had to be nerfed by Nintendo two separate times. She comes in at the #2 spot on this list for her ridiculous neutral game, combos, and ability to perform disgusting zero-to-deaths. Smash 4 was Bayonetta’s first appearance in the Smash franchise, and it certainly was one to remember. Meta Knight was a matchup problem for any character in Brawl, and hopefully Nintendo will never develop a character this broken ever again. He had an excellent recovery, fast combos, and moves that could kill at decent percentages. The discrepancy between this character and the rest of the roster in Brawl was so significant that there were legitimate talks of banning him in tournaments. Meta Knight easily takes the top spot on this list. In this list, I’m going to be taking a look at the best/most broken characters ever to be played in the Smash series. This creates a few characters that stand out amongst the others in how overpowered they are in competitive play. With that in mind, the playstyle of many characters in the games over the years have been perfected by the pros and are even used in ways that the developers did not intend. The game was supposed to be a casual multiplayer party game however, it has turned into one of the biggest eSports in the world. in 1999 for the Nintendo 64, the game was not made with the intention of being played professionally.
