| Strengths | • Good range on his attacks • Very powerful hitboxes, which often take priority over opponents' attacks • Decent horizontal movement in his recovery (Up Special) • Great grab game, allowing him to use cargo throws and get early KOs on opponents • Moves have high knockback for finishing stocks • Access to several spikes | • Excellent at zoning (→+B, ↓+B, B) • Fast movement • Can sometimes get out of combos or dodge attacks thanks to his small size • Very little lag to many of his attacks |
| Weaknesses | • Terrible vertical recovery • Struggles when getting comboed, and cannot deal with projectiles • Poor frame data, and lack of approach options | • Struggles against swordies and characters who can outrange him • Mediocre grab game (slow start-up and limited follow-ups) • Mediocre recovery (can be gimped or edge guarded) • Doesn't take stocks until very high percents |
