His shield, though large, doesn't cover his body very well, making it hard for him to block attacks. Combining his impressive weight and good horizontal recovery with good Directional Influence, he can be extremely hard to KO.Īlthough he can take a lot of damage before dying, he gets hit very easily due to his large size. Despite his extremely long horizontal recovery, it is vulnerable to disjointed attacks and has poor vertical height, which means even weak spikes can be devastating, though it is hard to edgeguard without a disjointed attack due its initial invincibility frames and being a high priority move. He can even use Spinning Kong to cancel knockback from an attack that would even KO Bowser, Snake, or King Dedede. Donkey Kong's weight helps him stay alive longer, though he is a big target and has very poor vertical recovery, but extremely long horizontal recovery. He is one of the fastest heavyweight characters his movement speed is above average: fast running, fast walking, fast air speed, and very high initial jump. Despite these pros, Donkey Kong lacks projectiles and a reliable way to deal with them, which makes his moveset and style of approach unvaried. Overall, Donkey Kong has decidedly poor matchups while being countered by the majority of top and high tier (and is also hard countered by two, but Donkey Kong also hard counters three), and has achieved average tournament results.ĭonkey Kong is a very heavy character with very powerful attacks, great attack range, and high knockback capabilities. While his rolls and air dodge are about average, his sidestep is the second slowest, after Bowser. Additionally, he has a poor vertical recovery, making him vulnerable to weak spikes.Īdditional problems of Donkey Kong include most of his attacks having heavy ending lag (making it easy to punish most of his attacks if he misses), being very vulnerable to meteor smash gimps due to his recovery gaining much less vertical distance, his shield being too small for a character of his size leaving him heavily vulnerable to shield stabbing, and lacking a projectile, which when combined with his very large size and aforementioned shield issues, gives Donkey Kong severe issues dealing with camping. Melee or being voiced by Takashi Nagasako (who voiced Donkey Kong starting with Mario Power Tennis), Donkey Kong now uses a new set of realistic gorilla grunt and roar sound effects.ĭonkey Kong ranks in the D tier, 21st overall, due to his well rounded attacks, good mobility, good range and incredible finishers (namely a fully charged Giant Punch) however, being a candidate for infinite chain grabs as well as problems dealing with certain projectiles are the reasons for his drop from being a high tier character from the first tier list. Rather than utilizing the recycled clips from Super Smash Bros. He was first shown very briefly at the E3 2007 press conference, and was officially confirmed on the Smash Bros.
