When you do land a standing grab, Dthrow if you’re in the middle of the stage and go for FAir or NAir. amiibo have different effects depending on the game: you might unlock new modes, weapons or character customisations, or even boost your amiibo’s abilities to turn it into your perfect partner - or a formidable foe! As a result, we have to approach Meta Knight not from the perspective of a character with highly technical and precise options, but from the perspective of a character who will die from a single breeze that can only pull off a victory by sumo-wrestling the opponent offstage and into his territory. Unfortunately this also means they can parry it, and this move has (checks notes) 30 frames of endlag if you attack with it.

Meta Knight’s AI often uses Mach Tornado way too often in the air, which gives him a chance of flying right off-stage and to his death.Meta Knight can’t use the third hit of the 3-hit combo, leaving him hanging with only the first two attacks.

Scanning the Meta Knight amiibo will grant the player a random material, a random weapon rated three stars or lower, a single Rupee, or a random amount of Rupees between 100 and 2500. Despite the AI issues we mentioned above, it’s still a multihit move that builds damage and can reach the opponent from a distance. If you really like this character, I think you’ll appreciate the variations in his design and much like Waddle Dee, this is just a well-made Amiibo. The Kirby one is actually bigger and perhaps shows a bit more detail though Meta Knight has a simple enough design that there probably isn’t an advantage there. Forward Smash is acceptable in very small doses, but only to catch opponents rolling up from the ledge.We specialize in gaming guides and essays for Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Xenoblade Chronicles, Super Smash Bros.

Doc Note: I am the worst at getting guides posted in a timely manner (life gets in the way of amiibo sometimes) – I’ve lost contact with this trainer in the months since I received his guide, so this is my best attempt at interpreting his instructions without the ability to clarify ambiguities. I like how much metallic paint is on this figure and while it shines brightly in the pictures because of the large amount of lighting I use, Meta Knight looks great even in normal light. Then there’s forward tilt, in which the AI always fails to use the third and final hit unless it’s attacking an opponent’s shield.Drill Rush is another one of Meta Knight’s best moves, and using it often actually makes this fighter’s matchup against Incineroar somewhat workable! Meta Knight has been a strong character in Smash Brothers in the past and he is one of the baddest looking characters Nintendo has designed.
