Best META KNIGHT Players in Smash Ultimate Competitive

[@dbaddah8783]

Bro Metal Knight is so overpowered in this new smash brothers brawl. Everyone just spams his down B in this new patch 5.56. If he didn't spawn with level 3 helmet and armour i think the game would be much more fair. Hopefully the upcoming update should be good to nerf him and the new 8 times scope snake gets might actually counter him. Plus, who else is excited for the new SS3 Gokon to come out!!!

@@jungleberrypie IF your talking about his neutral b then I wouldn't say it's a nerf but I wouldn't say it's a buff because that move looks very good for ledge guarding and the up air ladder combo off the side is stronger with neutral b.

I’ve always liked Meta Knight, even in Brawl when I was a kid (didn’t know MK was top tier...). Now I feel motivated to pick MK up again. Any tips on how to do Uair string to Up B?

[@Matanumi]

MK is actually hard in this game... you can't spam B or use shuttle loopout of shit... upair is slower and doesn't always connect. nado has mad endlag, transient priority on the sword is gone... and the sword lacks serious range. MK can gimp and play excellent off stage game... but good luck doing well with him in bracket.

[@agent_orca7512]

Using jump+ tilt_stick allows you to freely maneuver with the left stick than if you were to use up and A. You don’t always have to carry them to the top, you can also ladder them to the sides and finish them off with Tornadoz

[@aw-tismo1676]

The character has much more to do than just doing his one flashy ladder combo

[@funnynickname4005]

Make your ZR button a jump button, C stick tilt attacks, then to practice, set DK to 25%, no charge up smash DK, catch DK with x+a, then hold ZR and rhythmically tap up with C stick to jump and slice, also move your other control stick side to side to make sure the DK doesn’t fall out, after sixth up air jump, up b. After u get the hang of this, start trying other tricks, like fast falling during the combo, and throw to ladder

[@skiruskronos2732]

a good tip is that after your 2nd jump you dont have to keep pressing jump you can just hold the jump button after the 2nd and it will keep jumping, so if you land the first two upairs you are free to hold the button to continue the string, it makes it easier to DI the combo in the direction needed as most times you dont have to fastfall until the 3rd hit of upair

[@kachosuffer7]

I love how MK actually takes skill unlike the majority of the characters (notably top tiers) in this game.

Up B and gliding are one of the reasons but he was basically the best spacy with hitboxes larger than Marth's and the fact that Meta Knight never has to touch the ground meaning he never has to worry about tripping(which was annoying in brawl).

[@KuaiYT]

So imagine him spamming arials like in this video but with a larger hitbox on each one.

[@ToxicPea]

@@Matanumi but Galacta Knight has been the secret final boss of multiple Kirby games since 2008, and the Kirby community knows for a fact that the possible Meta Echoes could be completely unique fighters outright with their special abilities and properties. Can MK open a space time rift instantaneously; Can he summon giant mirror swords from the ground; Can he fight you with shadow clones of himself; Can he destroy a multiverse ending entity in a single blow; can he turn his enemies into allies by screeching; can he summon the dead to aid him in battle; can he....you get the point.

Soufien Hajji they're very risky now, especially that neutral b. I never use that special move

[@firestorm3k882]

Neutral B is a good ledge guarding tool, 2 frame tool, and can be a combo finisher for the up air ladder off of the side blast zones. Side B is a recovery tool, it can kill, and it can gimp opponents if you grab ledge right before the last hit. Down B can be used in disadvantage, can kill, and can be used as a teleport recovery. Up B is a recovery tool, it can kill, and it's a combo finisher.
