Mewtwo
B TierMewtwo excels at controlling space with his Neutral Special, Shadow Ball, allowing him to pressure opponents from a distance while setting up for combos. Utilize Down Tilt to initiate most of your attacks, and capitalize on his strong Back Air for edge guarding, which can be surprisingly effective due to its range and power. However, Mewtwo's relatively light weight makes him vulnerable to early KOs, especially from fighters with strong kill moves, so be cautious of getting hit hard while recovering. Additionally, his reliance on spacing and timing means he can struggle against aggressive characters that can close the gap quickly.

Tips for Mewtwo
- Back air while a little hard to get used to at first is arguably one of the best edge guarding tools in the game because it is surprisingly strong and has insane range
- Remember that mewtwo has his tail hitbox back from melee. your tail attacks now extend your hitbox considerably, and mewtwo has a harder time reaching the ground. remember to watch that tail!
- Down tilt can start most of mewtwos combos, in neutral use lots of shadow ball and tilts!
- Don't be afraid to throw out a Disable from time to time, it actually has a fair bit of range and can even be used to out-space some sword-fighters if used properly.
- Forward air is actually godlike and can combo at low percents and kill at high percents. You can set up into it at around 60% with down-tilt and maybe up air if you know how to
