SSBM/Mario
Introduction
Mario appears on rank 13 in the D tier on the current tier list, placing him in the center, along with his brother Luigi and two places below his clone of Dr. Mario. Mario acts as a well-rounded character, with average weight, falling speed and other such attributes. Mario has some good comboing ability, and he has a very versatile grab game, with a powerful back throw that can lead to gimps and an up and down throw that can chaingrab. Mario is also a decent edgeguarder, with Fireball (a solid projectile), and his cape which can easily and efficiently gimp almost every other character's recovery. While edgeguarding he can propel himself deep offstage as well as occupy/threaten a space through his pseudo-float side b. Unless you are creative, Mario lacks a reliable finisher, and his recovery is decidedly average (though slept-on), he can extend it with his cape, wall jumps (up-b and regular) and extended up-b. Mario can still be easily gimped however when using fireballs to protect the descent, reversals and coin spikes can occur instead.

Special Moves
Side B - Cape is like shine in two ways. Firstly, at base level it is a reflector, cape returns projectiles back at their sender with added damage and knockback. Secondly, it has applications in neutral, recovery, combo extending, platform movement and edge guarding. On select stages such as yoshi's story and fod Mario can short hop cape no impact land onto platforms allowing for some unique follow ups. Cape can alter the timing that one hits the ground, so one can use cape mid combo as a tech trap. For example after fairing and popping up the opponent, Mario can cape while they are in hit stun to force a missed tech. Cape also has a unique property where it causes the opponent to sometimes enter tumble and spiral to the ground. Some of the situations where this can happen include caping a whiffed grab, the rising portion of peach parasol, spacie's phantasm, various ledge get up options and more. While Doc's cape is better at reflecting other characters recoveries, Mario's can be better utilized in neutral. After caping, Mario players can choose to descend with an aerial as to prevent the landing animation which recharges the lift in the cape. One can be cognizant of the charge and use both lift and no-lift cape accordingly. With its charge, cape can help Mario perform a ledge stall. Mario can also shield drop cape to reflect projectiles such as Falco's lasers, this also puts Mario in a place where there are multiple movement options and mix ups available to him. Lastly it needs to be stated that cape turns other characters around even if they are in shield. Having an unblockable anti shield grab option definitely has its perks.
