Blade (Super Smash Flash)

Blade is a playable starter character in Super Smash Flash based on Equinox-Twilight ' s creations but was recreated by topcat13 especifically for the game. He is a Sonic recolor who wields a sword and fights with a variety of quick strikes designed to gradually whittle the opponent down over time. He has a clone character,, who shares most of his attributes.

Blade is ranked 29th on the tier list, tied for last place alongside. Blade possesses some of the fastest attacks in the game, which gives him the ability to throw out moves at random without fear of getting punished. His Spin Dash is fast, has good range, racks up damage quickly, and can be used to edgeguard opponents who are recovering low. He also has good survivability due to his momentum-canceling Side attack, which allows him to cancel his knockback momentum immediately upon use.

However, his moves deal low damage and have a very short active duration, giving him one of the worst damage outputs in the game. Despite being a sword user, his range is laughably bad, which is further compounded by his lack of a projectile, which limits his approach options severely. In particular, his instant kill attacks: up attack and down attack, are terrible finishing moves due to their lack of range, which requires that Blade's opponent be practically on top of him in order to hit successfully. For these reasons, he has trouble dealing with characters that have better KO power, leading to terrible matchups across the board, thus putting him at the very bottom of the tier list.
