Four new Spirits have been added to the mix. This is the most significant change. These Spirits will be very useful during stamina matches. These Spirits can be summoned to assist trophies or other items.
Another important change is that the “Gale Stab” glitch has been removed. Hidden graphical layers within the platform caused this glitch. This layer caused certain characters to teleport erratically.
High-Ranking Tiers Were Free To Go
SSBU 3.1 has seen some changes to the highest tiers. Fox received a slight jab buff and Wolf and Little Mac got nerfs for their Down Smash and Up-B. The cast’s high tiers remain strong and make up a substantial portion of their ranks. This tier has seen some major players show up as characters and they have been very successful.
The Meta Knight is one of the highest tiers, and has been carried by many talented players. These characters have been successful with characters such as Mr. Game, Watch, and Sonic at majors. Although this tier isn’t as strong as others, these characters have a great matchup spread and can deliver amazing major performances.
