Mario is the most balanced fighter from Ultra Smash Bros. IV and hero of the Super Mario (series) and he makes his fifth appearance in the series. He's already confirmed at the E3 demo and trailer as a old member of the Original 8, including Ness, Captain Falcon, Jigglypuff and Luigi. Generally, Mario is the hero of the Mushroom Kingdom were he goes on adventure, sometimes with Luigi, his sidekick and little brother, by rescuing Peach off the hands of Bowser and his minons.

Mario's already voiced by Charles Marinet alongside with Luigi, Wario and Waluigi, but it's changed slightly differently from SSB4.

Mario ranked on the 5th place of the 103rd (S) in the tier list behind Captain Falcon and after Ice Climbers for his fast Up-B combo strings similar as in SSB4 and a improved recovery options such as his Super Cape and his Super Jump, which it makes such a great character to play in the tournaments. This is a slightly rise for Mario but maintains his spot as top tier character. He also is placed at the bottom of the S-tier. As all the Smash series and in his games overall, Mario is the easiest character to deal with all kind of opponents due to his balanced states likes Fireballs as his projectile game, a great combo starter and a excelent defensive gameplay. His weakness is his frames of his grabs they have been nerfed which it makes difficult to start a combo. But overall in his matchup, Mario wins great matchups against his frontsiders (Bayonetta and Luigi).  

Changes from Super Smash Bros. Wii U/3DS

Mario's Up-Special goes higher. When Mario performs this by attacking someone, there also appears scorepoints from all the Super Mario Series., on screen, when you jump on a enemy. Like that, it appears 200, 400, 800, 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000 and specialy 1UP.

Comparing to Mario's SSB4 tier list (A), Mario significantly buffed for his faster moves and various combo moves. But his frame of his grabs are different as in the previous game.

• Takes off his hat, spins around and then he says: "Woo-hoo!". That's similar to the New Super Mario Bros. when he reached to the flagpole.
• Spins in the air and then falls on the ground with his legs in the air. It's similar to Donkey Kong for the NES when he's dying.
• Twists around with a fireball, jumps spinning and says: "Yes!" while his fireball explodes.
