- Mr. Game & Watch needs to be unlocked.
The man from the land of 2D gaming makes his Second Appearance in the Smash Bros. Series.
Mr. Game and Watch's up-B move does damage, is very fast, and is one of the few recovery moves that doesn't make you vulnerable. He can cancel the attack into any smash attack or even quickly fall to the ground. This opens up many options. Also, if your opponent is hanging on the edge of a map with no wall, just a ledge, like Final Destination or Battlefield, you can use his up-B to attack the edge-hogger and they might just bounce off the ledge and be sent into the abyss.
Another good tactic is his downward throw combo. You can use many attacks after his downward throw, including Judge. His other throws can also lead into aerial attacks.
If you're fighting a 1-on-1 with a projectile user whose projectiles can be absorbed by Oil Panic, then at the start of the match back away slightly and your opponent's first instinct is to open fire. Absorb as many attacks as you can before they realize that their tactic won't work against you, then blast them with Oil Panic.
Mr. Game and Watch is 2D, which makes him one of the lightest characters in the game. During a battle where there is little time to KO people (e.g. in a free for all), generally Mr. Game and Watch will be picked on because he flies so far. Be careful of his weight weakness, and keep to the air where you can take on enemies one at a time.
Mr. Game and Watch is very light, but has some powerful attacks. He has very good offense if used correctly, and decent defense with Oil Panic. His projectile does minimal damage, and his Final Smash is decent. His throws aren't great, but can initiate combos, and he moves at an average pace. However, his backwards air is a great approach option.
Basic Attacks
Special Attacks
Judge attacks
- Attack strength 1 or 2%. An attack that won’t even cause your opponent to flinch, and causes G&W to receive a little damage.
- Attack strength 4%. A weak attack without any special characteristics.
- Attack strength 6%. An attack with the same characteristics of a fan, meaning it pierces defenses.
- Attack strength 8%. A slashing attack that functions like a Beam sword. It launches opponents diagonally.
- Attack strength 4%x3. Three electrical charges zap the opponent and temporarily stuns them.
- Attack strength 12%. A flame attack.
- Attack strength 14%. A food item will also appear in honour of the lucky #7.
- Attack strength 9%. An attack that freezes foes. Take advantage of the opening to attack again.
- Attack strength 32%. A massive attack!! The opponent will be launched as if hit with the Home-run Bat!
Taunts
Final Smash
Octopus: one of the longest final smashes in the game, Mr. Game & Watch temporarily transforms into a giant octopus and attacks with his expanding and retracting tentacles, which are controlled by pressing buttons. Also, Mr. Game & Watch can double jump while in this form, however, if he falls off the stage, the final smash ends.
Match-Ups
Bowser
Bowser is one big foe to face against much due to powerful standard attacks and special attacks.
When he tries to blow fire at you use your special down b to absorb it and once full throw oil back at him.
Lucas
Lucas has PK Frost, which is relatively slow and easy to catch, but if your only strategy is to just catch it with oil panic, it will usually result in a ton of damage to you.
Ness
Similar to Lucas, but has a different PK attack. Using oil panic to "counter" Ness' PK Fire is a good strategy if the bucket is empty, and depending on the timing will completely fill it.
Snake
Snake's missiles are useless with oil panic. Watch out for mines and other explosives, such as mortars, firing into ground. etc.
Ganondorf
Ganondorf is one of the slowest characters in the game. Although his attacks are powerful, Game&Watch can easily out-maneuver him, setting up for combo attacks. Ganondorf falls quickly so you may only have a second or two for air combos. The down throw and and a quick down double hammer will send him sliding across the map, and off the edge.
