Kirby is one of the starter characters in this game. He is notable for his small stature, light weight, and multiple mid-air jumps. His versatility makes him good for beginners, and he can copy the neutral special moves of all the other fighters.

===Tournament Standing===
===Strenghts and Weaknesses===
Kirby is currently ranked 20th on the ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' tier list - in D rank, as produced by the Smashboards community. While he has many strengths, especially in his combo game, Kirby has great difficulty approaching his foes, especially those who can rely heavily on projectiles. Despite the below-average ranking, Kirby has a decent average chance against the rest of the cast, easily beating most of the lower tier fighters, but easily beaten by the higher tier ones.

King Dedede is one of the starter characters in this game, making his first appearance as a fighter here. He is a very heavy fighter, with slow but strong attacks and a powerful grab-game. Despite his size, King Dedede has a very high recovery, with 4 mid-air jumps and his Super Dedede Jump to pick up the slack.

===Tournament Standing===
===Strenghts and Weaknesses===
In the current [[smashwiki:Tier list(SSBB)|tier list]], King Dedede is ranked 12th, in the C+ tier. King Dedede has very powerful moves, good recovery in his four jumps, which, when coupled with [[smashwiki:Super Dedede Jump|Super Dedede Jump]], provides him one of the least punishable recoveries in the game. In addition to that, Dedede has many options of scoring KOs, with his good range on his attacks, particularly his side tilt, and he has an amazing grab game, which can effectively reduce two-thirds of the cast's stocks quickly due to his down throw's set knockback. However, he lacks speed compared to other fighters, as his aerial movement is low and his dashing speed is the third slowest in game, with only Ganondorf and Jigglypuff having slower dashes. He also is vulnerable to chain throws and combos himself due to his high weight and falling speed. However, his pros overshadow most of his cons, which is why he is ranked 12th on the tier list. Dedede has seen great tournament results, especially in tournaments that ban Meta Knight.

Meta Knight is one of the starter characters in this game. He is characterized by his unrivaled mobility and the quickness of his attacks, making him a very formidable fighter. His recovery is the best in the game, with 5 mid-air jumps and a recovery move that allows him to glide further still. His other special moves also allow him to recover, in one form or another.

===Tournament Standing===
===Strenghts and Weaknesses===
Meta Knight is currently ranked first on the ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' tier list - in SS rank. This is due to his unmatched mobility, his quick attacks, and his deadly presence offstage. He outclasses all other opponents, with no equal matchups to anyone other than himself and Pikachu.
