Ridley’s attacks cause some serious damage and have great reach at the same time. Ridley takes the throne from Bowser as the character with the largest hitbox, definitely his greatest weakness, but the character’s strengths more than make up for it. It should come as no surprise that Ridley is a powerful character, and he ends up being the very best of the newcomers. His heavy weight and fast fall speed are certainly detractors, but if you want a fighter with serious range, Simon’s your guy. Neutral lets him throw an axe in an arc, side throws a cross straight ahead, down lets him raise a pillar of fire with holy water, and up has Simon dash upward with an uppercut.Īll of these various tools make Simon incredibly useful at long-range combat, and learning how the trajectories of each of these tools work can give you a deadly arsenal to combine with whip attacks. The catch here, of course, is that Simon has a lengthy wind-up animation on his stronger attacks so you’ll need to make sure you have the distance measured.Įqually useful are the tools that Simon has for his specials. Simon has some of the best reach of the entire roster in Smash Bros Ultimate, as his whip can hit enemies from nearly up to two body lengths away. Simon comes equipped with a multitude of tools from the Castlevania series, as well as his trusty whip. MewtwoĬastlevania makes its big debut in Smash Bros Ultimate, and the series’ protagonist Simon is one of the best new characters featured in Smash Bros Ultimate. This is one heavyweight character you’ll always want to be careful about taking on, and one of the best characters to use in Smash Bros Ultimate. Despite being a heavyweight character, K Rool also has a fantastic aerial recovery with his up special, meaning he can soak up damage and still recover from being launched. K Rool’s down special is especially deadly, letting him counter attacks from the front with tremendous effect.
K Rool also has great special attacks, with his side special letting him throw his crown for good damage, and his neutral special having him fire a damaging cannonball and then gaining the ability to suck enemies in with his blunderbuss. His down Smash is particularly deadly causing a quake with AoE damage that can reach a good distance. K Rool is a powerhouse that packs some seriously strong attacks, with almost every attack doing upwards of 10 percent damage. This event is a reference to a minor sub-plot in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and its Nintendo DS remake, where the character Castor - alluded to by the event description as the “friend” or “close comrade” - joins Marth's army because he needs to earn money to buy medicine for his ill mother.The infamous King K Rool is a newcomer to Smash Bros Ultimate, and as you might expect the heavyweight is a force to be reckoned with.The music used in this event, Fire Emblem, normally plays on Castle Siege, rather than Skyloft.Leads to Food Fight.Ĭompleting the event within 80 seconds on normal or hard difficulty awards a Speed Walker Boots equipment.
