Smash Ultimate · Mid Tier
Up air pairs strong knockback with a good hitbox, so it comes out slower — and down tilt picks up the slack as a combo starter.
Each mid-tier character receives a buff and a nerf: shave off the most unfair part of the kit while lessening the character's biggest weakness.
Each entry lists the move or ability affected, the adjustment itself, and — where the analysis states one — the problem it is meant to solve and the reasoning behind it.
Ivysaur is one of Smash Ultimate's entries — the full tier-by-tier breakdown covers the whole roster.
