Marth vs Donkey Kong

When facing Donkey Kong as Marth, maintain your distance to avoid his powerful grabs and aerials. Utilize your dancing blade to poke at him from range, and be ready to punish his laggy moves, especially after he finishes his bongos. Once he’s vulnerable, capitalize on your speed by executing quick slashes and follow up with a strong smash attack to secure KOs. Keep the stage control in mind; staying near the edges can help you bait out his approaches while allowing you to set up for edge-guarding opportunities.
