Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – King Dedede amiibo Guide (Competitive)

Leave a comment

King Dedede has had something of a rich history in the amiibo metagame. He was high-tier in Super Smash Bros. 4, and he’s high-tier in this game, too. Dedede has had plenty of dedicated trainers, and though he isn’t quite king of the metagame, he’s powerful enough to rule over most fighters ranked below him on our tier list. If you’d like to learn more about King Dedede’s strengths and weaknesses, be sure to read his wiki page. Otherwise, let’s get right into today’s training!

Please note that this particular training guide targets the amiibo-versus-amiibo format. If you’d like to learn how to train a Raid Boss King Dedede amiibo (amiibo-versus-human), feel free to check out our corresponding guide instead. Thanks to Dreamy Jay for contributing King Dedede’s training information!

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – King Dedede amiibo Guide (Raid Boss)

Leave a comment

As with most heavyweight fighters, King Dedede is a strong pick in the competitive metagame. The same is true in the Raid Boss format, as when you combine his super-strong attacks with Spirit boosts and bonuses, you’ve got an extremely threatening offensive juggernaut that can KO an opponent in just a few hits. If you’d like to learn more about Dedede’s strengths and weaknesses before we continue, feel free to check his wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into today’s training!

amiibo Patch Report: Ver. 11.0.0

Leave a comment

Tonight’s update to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate added the new fighters Pyra and Mythra to the game’s impressive lineup of characters. But hey, this is an amiibo training site, so who cares about new characters that don’t have FPs yet?! We’re interested in specific fighter changes that might shake up our tier list. The last update, version 10.0.0, didn’t feature many fighter adjustments, so we decided not to write a post about it. But 11.0.0 has changed a few characters in particular, and we’re going to cover all of them! Before we continue, you can view the full changelog here.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – Bowser amiibo Guide (Competitive)

Leave a comment

For as long as amiibo training has existed, Bowser has been at the very top of its competitive metagames. The King of Koopas made waves throughout the entirety of Super Smash Bros. 4’s metagame, and unfortunately, he was even further buffed in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Though he does lose to Incineroar, he beats just about every other fighter. Bowser is so strong, in fact, that’s he banned from most competitive tournaments. You might have a tough time finding a tournament to enter that allows Bowser, but in case you do, we’ve got a great training strategy you can use to make yours really strong! If you want to learn more about Bowser’s strengths, you can check out his wiki page.

Please note that this particular training guide targets the amiibo-versus-amiibo format. If you’d like to learn how to train a Raid Boss Bowser amiibo (amiibo-versus-human), feel free to check out our corresponding guide instead.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – Bowser amiibo Guide (Raid Boss)

Leave a comment

Bowser is one of the most notorious characters in competitive amiibo training. He was banned from amiibo tournaments in December 2019, as he was considered the strongest fighter at the time. Surprisingly, Bowser’s strength carries over to the Raid Boss format too. His AI is top-notch, and his signature strength can rather easily overwhelm a human opponent. If you’d like to learn more about Bowser’s strengths and weaknesses, you can check his wiki page. Otherwise, let’s jump right into training!
