Overview

Mr. Game & Watch (G&W/GnW) is a small floaty character built of extremes, and the volatile nature of his attacks fundamentally changes how one approaches most aspects of the game compared to the rest of the characters. For example, while he boasts incredible moves, namely U-Smash, D-Smash, N-Air, U-Air, and Fire (Up-B), all of them (including the rest of his toolkit) function wildly differently from any others of their category, and due to this uniqueness it may be hard to learn him coming from another character. Backing up his bizarre moveset are Mr. Game & Watch’s above average movement stats, which are crucial in allowing him to weave in and out of threats on the ground and in the air during neutral, additionally provoke opponents into swinging, and punishing opponents who’ve exhausted their resources trying to land during juggle situations or getting back to stage.

Fire is Mr. Game & Watch’s premier move. No thought of this character passes without it. Sitting in shield won’t get Mr. Game & Watch anywhere though, it gives opponents time to think about how they want to deal with it. Learning how to use his movement and other tools to bait the opponent into hitting shield is vital, as it grants immediate advantage state, and if the pressure is kept up, a stock.

Mr. Game & Watch doesn’t come without drawbacks however. His ludicrously light weight forces him to respect certain options more than other characters would, and, on top of considering his aforementioned learning difficulty, the absence of any effective kill confirms at higher percents force him to make riskier choices. Guessing wrong as a light character spells doom.

If you want a character that can drift in and out of combat and play like no other, look no further than Mr. Game & Watch.

Summary

Mr. Game & Watch means to abuse his mobility and dominant disjointed attacks to provoke the opponent, then punishing their responses accordingly.
Pros	Cons
Drifty: Mr. Game & Watch has impressive aerial movement, and combining this with fast falling, B-Reversing, and Bucket Jumping gives him multiple quick ways to move about the screen and run into or out of his opponent’s comfort range. Raw Power: A handful of attacks are shockingly strong for Mr. Game & Watch’s floaty design, frequently killing under 100% from most places onstage. Wide Screen, Small Frame: With his poor weight comes the blessing of a small hurtbox, making Mr. Game & Watch particularly difficult to hit, and that’s not even mentioning crouch. Since spacing attacks against his shield is crucial to dealing with Fire, this ends up emphasizing the importance of spacing even more to opponents. Ambiguous Animation: Mr. Game & Watch has very few frames of animation, which ends up buffing a few of his moves by making their tells more difficult to distinguish, such as his smash attacks, throws, and especially ledge jump. Gatekeeper: His overall toolkit is very versatile, and has many options for what his opponent throws at him.	Featherweight: Due to... creative liberties, Mr. Game & Watch is tied with Squirtle for the title of 3rd lightest character. Living past 90% against most of the cast is rare. Lacking Kill Confirms: Compared to other higher ranking characters that Mr. Game & Watch sits with, he has far less ways to secure a stock, with D-Smash and Chef (Neutral-B) being the only moves that universally confirm into a kill at higher percents. If the opponent is capable enough to avoid those moves, or if their character is difficult to edgeguard, then they may be living to upwards of ~200% each stock until down throw starts to kill. Scissors Beats Paper: While he does have a vast array of disjointed attacks, they become less of a threat to characters with longer reach, namely swordieShorthand for "sword character", but typically used to refer to Fire Emblem characters in particular.s.

Surprising range for a Jab, even farther than Roy and Chrom's. Good at checking in scramble situations. Excellent on shield, and at baiting options out of them.

The low endlag on Jab 1 allows for some mixups on shield if you have a good idea of what your opponent's habits are, and is completely safe against Out of Shield options that are frame 7 or slower. This trait also means a direct combo into Fire or a filled Oil Panic when buffered on hit.

Rapid Jab is not safe on shield, but has far lower pushback than others of its kind. Opponents caught with it near ledge take upwards of 20% even with SDI.

Generous lingering disjointed hitbox. Lightning quick startup, and little endlag. F-Tilt is one of G&W's quickest and least committal grounded punish tools. His resource-sapping juggles and speed makes this move devastating when covering landings.

Frame 8 startup and Pivot Canceling can lead to a true combo from a successful Chef ledgetrap, and even allows it to serve as a burst option alongside Dash Attack.

The sweetspot on the initial hit is incredibly powerful, killing middleweights around 100% at the ledge with the lingering sourspot not too far behind, killing at 130%. It can even be combo’d into out of a landing N-Air for a kill confirm.

It can also 2-Frame and hit ledge outright, but this is character dependent.

Second hit is pretty safe

Unfortunately considered to be the least useful move in his entire toolkit. This attack is supposed to function as both a combo tool and an anti-air, but it performs pretty poorly at both with a long 10 frame start-up, bad risk/reward ratio with its 34 total frames, and intangibility on both of his hands... but not his head.

The one (other) niche use this move has is its -6 shield safety, which ends up being overshadowed by more than half of G&W's other moves considering its low range and the 20 frames before the second hit comes out.

Overall, let's just say it's pretty difficult to find an instance of a professional Mr. Game & Watch using U-Tilt intentionally.

Low profiles
Can't hit airborne opponents

Starting up on Frame 6 and having great knockback, D-Tilt is one of Mr. Game & Watch's best tools to whiff punish and KO opponents, as it easily takes stocks under 100%, sometimes even under 80% near ledge. This speed and power also allows it to serve as an alternative burst option in neutral.

This attack also low profiles effectively, which compliments his low crouch very well, allowing him to duck under certain projectiles or grabs and quickly punish with D-Tilt's devastating power.

Be mindful that, despite D-Tilt's fantastic qualities, it has far more recovery frames than F-Tilt, making it much riskier to throw out, and is completely unable to hit opponents that aren't grounded. Only use this move if you KNOW it will land.

One of his strongest kill moves, and kicks off the trend of G&W having abnormally powerful, disjointed, and safe Smash Attacks for a character of his stature.

This attack is extremely deceptive in its range, going pretty far past the flame graphic. The range of the sweetspot and decent pushback improves shield safety tenfold.

Couple the deceptively long reach with deceptively low endlag and you get a crazy difficult Smash Attack to punish, allowing G&W to throw this move out frequently with little risk on the off-chance it catches the opponent and robs their stock under 80% from center stage.

Very good pre-emptive anti-air. Although it has slow startup at 21 frames, it has a good amount of active frames and very little recovery frames. Often spammed to coerce the opponent into making a move, then punish them. It is also one of the stronger U-Smashes in the game.

12 frame simultaneous startup on both sides, 5 frame lingering hitbox, and 22 frames of endlag. The sweetspots on the hammer heads bury which combos into imagination, and the sourspot on the handles send at a gnarly semi-spike angle. This move is very concise, but earns its right as one of G&W’s most infamous attacks.

Landing the sweetspot confirms into a charged F-Smash or U-Smash, as well as the rest of his toolkit, which gives G&W a multitude of options when it comes to kill confirms. If the opponent is good at mashing then an F-Tilt can catch them before they get out, or if you’re confident in your edgeguarding then you can use D-Tilt’s low launch angle to set up for one.

The only arguable weakness is its vulnerability to aerial approaches, making it limited towards grounded approaches. This could still be used as an effective conditioner though, as opponents getting too comfortable with aerial approaches gives G&W the perfect opportunity to start his almost impassable juggle game.

A great tool for GnW to rack up damage. GnW can spam multiple U-Airs in a row at an airborne opponent, and they will struggle to be dodge.

U-Air also works somewhat well to harrass opponents above taller platforms like Battlefield's topmost platform, though be mindful that it only autocancels from FH's.

The faster you tap , the faster food to comes out.
Control stick can be tilted to change the angle it comes out at.

Good, safe edgeguarding tool. Because the food lasts for so long and drops at a vertical angle, it can hinder opponents who mainly rely on vertical recovery options.

GnW pulls out a hammer to hit the opponent, with varying effects. Because of it's RNG nature and the fact that most options are very minus on shield, GnW rarely uses this move, except for styling on their opponent.

There are however, ways to bend the RNG in GnW's favour. Since he can't roll the same number twice in a row, there is an effectively 1 in 8 chance of getting a number that GnW hasn't hit before, so you can "pre roll" the dice to get odds that better favour you. Additionally, if the match is in last 5 seconds and you has less stocks than your opponent, you will get 50% chance of getting 9.

Combos from D-Throw from low to mid percents

Judge 1

This move might be contender for the worst move in the game. Does a whopping 2 percent and no knockback. It's also very minus on HIT, meaning GnW will be be punished for hitting this move. If that's not enough, Judge 1 also does 12 percent self-damage. Just an awful move, pray you don't get it.

Judge 2

Not much better either. Instead of being only very minus on hit, you're now only slightly less minus on hit with a bit more knockback. At least this move doesn't inflict self-damage.

Judge 3

Now we're getting somewhere. This move actually does bonus damage on shield, meaning GnW could potentially set up shield breaks. If the opponent's shield doesn't break, GnW is still minus enough on shield to eat a Smash Attack.

Judge 4

Still pretty mediocre. Shares similar problems with Judge 3, except it doesn't even do bonus shield damage.

Launches the opponent diagonally on hit.

Judge 5

Produces 4 electrical charges that launch the opponent slightly upwards. Still, there are better Judge results.

Judge 6

Actually quite decent. Sends the opponent at a semi-spike angle, which can then allow GnW to set up edgeguard offstage.

2nd highest knockback of all the Judge moves.

Judge 7

Drops 3 Apples and allows GnW to heal up. It's not a lot, but it's better than nothing considering GnW's weight.

Judge 8

Freezes the opponent with a PING sound, and launches them upwards. Because of the freeze effect, it can be used to gimp opponents off stage.

Judge 9

The infamous. You rolled the RNG and won. Every GnW main's dream of hitting.

On hit, this move has absurd killpower, killing at extremely low percents or even at 0 percent.

On shield, opponents aren't safe either. It does an insane amount of shield damage meaning it can lead to shield breaks. What's more, because of the amount of pushback from the move, GnW is basically safe on shield unless parried.

At mid percents, combos into N-Air or B-Air
THE OoS Option
Unsafe when shielded
Great recovery tool

Privileged Up-B that does almost everything a character can ask for, and if for some reason you don't have enough verticality to reach a ledge you can just go of the left stick and airdodge upwards.

With its blazing fast startup of 3F and large hitbox, Up-B is the game's best out of shield option. No opponent fears hitting shield without fear of this move coming out to punish it. Combined with intangibility into the later active frames, Fire will also hit almost every attempt to jump in with an aerial, or at least trade with it. Don't get too predictable with it though, because Fire is quite unsafe on shield. However, because the move goes so high up in the air, characters with poor air options will struggle to punish it.

At low to mid percents, Up-B can combo into N-Air or B-Air, which can then put GnW into a favourable position to pressure the opponent. It is also good at ending combos after juggling the opponent. Lastly, Up-B can also gimp opponents by hitting them under the stage into a stage spike, which can turn a disadvantage stage for GnW into a free stock.

Energy projectiles are absorbed, while physical projectiles are reflected.
Absorbs up to 3 energy projectiles. Once filled up, GnW can use his bucket to deal 2x the damage of the strongest move absorbed.
Does a minimum of 16%,, with a maximum damage of 48%.
Bucket charge remains after losing a stock.

GnW's anti-zoning tool, and a very good one at that. Depending on the character, this move is either free damage to use on the opponent, or a move that will kill the opponent at mid-early percents.

Once filled, the bucket attack comes out starting frame 2 and has a massive disjointed hitbox. Jab 1 > Down-B is an easy way to get a kill confirm on opponents at around 70 percent, though this is dependent on what the strongest projectile absorbed was.
