Meta Knight is featured for the first time as a fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. His main attributes are his excellent aerial mobility, with five mid-air jumps, excellent airspeed, and special moves which can all assist further with recovery (most notoriously his glide following his up-special), as well as his quick and powerful sword swipes, many of which can beat out moves from other characters. All of these attributes put together make for a fearsome fighter when in the right hands, so much so that he is widely considered the best character in the game and is often banned from tournaments.

Unlike Kirby and King Dedede, Meta Knight speaks in full sentences, with lines such as "Know my power!" when using his Final Smash; [[Galaxia Darkness]] and "You've much yet to learn." in one of his victory poses. This is in stark contrast to the ''Kirby'' series proper, where his only dialogue outside of the occasional grunt is entirely text-based. His association in the Story Mode with [[smashwiki:Marth|Marth]] and [[smashwiki:Ike|Ike]], along with his own unique version of the series victory jingle, help to further separate him from his cuter compatriots.

=====Role in The Subspace Emissary=====
Throughout the story of [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]], Meta Knight is chasing down the Subspace Army, as they had seen fit to steal his flagship [[Halberd]] and use it to spread shadow bugs across the realm. He attempted to defend his ship, but was preoccupied with an attack from King Dedede. Along the way, he joins up with the two Fire Emblem swordsmen of Marth and Ike in pursuit of the Ancient Minister and his subspace bombs. One of these bombs resides in a giant transformable robot called [[smashwiki:Galleom|Galleom]] which Meta Knight fights. After Galleom transforms following a different battle, he takes [[smashwiki:Lucas|Lucas]] and the [[smashwiki:Pokémon Trainer|Pokémon Trainer]] as hostages with it, activating a Subspace Bomb within his chest. Lucas breaks them loose, and Meta Knight catches them in mid-air while they fall.

Later on, Meta Knight catches up to the Halberd as it engages in an aerial battle with the [[smashwiki:Great Fox|Great Fox]] by jumping up a mountainside along with the [[smashwiki:Ice Climbers|Ice Climbers]] (who believe it to be a race). At the top, he battles and then allies with [[smashwiki:Lucario|Lucario]] before boarding the ship. From there, he encounters [[smashwiki:Solid Snake|Snake]] and the two princesses [[smashwiki:Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[smashwiki:Princess Zelda|Zelda]] as he liberates his ship from Subspace control. He discovers that the ship was being piloted by [[smashwiki:Mr. Game & Watch|Mr. Game & Watch]] and several false counterparts. When kicked out of the pilot's cabin, the 2D collection dissolves into shadow bugs, forming a giant robotic boss named [[smashwiki:Duon|Duon]] on the Halberd bridge.
