Fox (Super Smash Flash)

Fox is a playable veteran Starter character in Super Smash Flash and the sole representative of the Star Fox franchise. Most of his attacks are based on his special moves from the Super Smash Bros. games, unlike most of the other characters who use punches and kicks. His custom sprite set was made by user qwerty1080, in a particular Mega Man 8-like style.

Fox is ranked 7th on the tier list, giving him the largest increase in tier position from the previous list. He has fast attacks, a good projectile with a large hitbox, a special that boosts his horizontal recovery, and a fast capable of racking up damage very quickly. He also has a spike in Fire Fox, giving him a good edge guard ability.

However, Fox has a disappointingly slow air speed and no momentum canceling attacks, which all but forces him to use Fox Illusion offstage. His instant-KO attacks are overall sub-par and lack range. He has difficulty dealing with disjointed hitboxes and can be out-zoned by many other projectile users.

While he is not the dominating force of this game, he is still a strong character, worthy of his high ranking.

Trivia

 * Oddly, his Blaster does not do any damage to.
 * This same attack is stronger than all of its official games' counterparts, but is considered very weak due to the physics of the game.
 * A common citation in the community is that Fox's face resembles Miles "Tails" Prower's face from the SEGA Genesis era, thereby joining about the joke concerning the abundance of  characters in the game.
