SDR Character Preview #2: Kirby

Dreamland's infamous deviant and glutton is well-known for his ability to copy his opponent's powers and use it against them. He's also rather popular among women...or so I hear.

 The pink and round blob is as cheerful as ever!

So what has changed with Kirby in SD Remix? While many of the differences seem minor at first, this iteration of Kirby is not to be taken lightly!

He slides more!

His hops are shorter!

He's even stronger!

Veteran players will notice the differences immediately and will be sure to appreciate the extra boost in attack speed and mobility. Untrained eyes should stay weary lest Kirby makes you his next snack!

The Down Smash Attack always sends horizontally now.

Rumor has it these Back Throws "chain" on certain opponents...

Speaking of throws - all of Kirby's throw moves are now inescapable. Use them to your advantage!

Fox seems awfully calm about this!

<Standard Special Move: Swallow>

Kirby's Swallow allows you to copy the Standard Special Move of your opponents, including the changes made to those moves in SD Remix!

Too bad! Kirby's Giant Punch missed! Is this the end?!

Don't worry Kirby! You'll get him yet!

Moves copied by Kirby can no longer be removed by chance from hitting him: opponents need to either KO Kirby or wait until he taunts. Although if he taunts near the edge of the stage, he might be too quick to punish...
