Duck Hunt Duo (USBIV)

Duck Hunt (or Duck Hunt Duo ''in Europe and Australia) are startable characters in Ultra Smash Bros. IV and they return for the second time in this game after Smash 4. They have been confirmed alongside with the classic characters alongside with Little Mac, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Dr. Mario, Ice Climbers and R.O.B including with the newcomers: Excitebike Rider and Classic Pit at the Famicom Smash Week. Generally, the Duck Hunt dog is a hunter-dog who catches ducks in his own shooter game alongside with the hunter, or the player itself. They have been combined in teams since Smash 4 alongside with other NES characters as the Wild Gunman cowboy's and the posseses the can from Hogan's Alley. They have a strong similarity to the Ice Climbers, Rosalina & Luma, Baby Mario & Luigi and especially Banjo & Kazooie.
Duck Hunt recycled their voiceclips from SSB4 but they have now more animalistic and realistic dog and duck sounds on each attack such as Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.
Duck Hunt ranked the 75th place of the 103th in the tier list (C+), putting him before Isaac and after Zelda, making them a mid tier character. This is a slightly rise to Duck Hunt but maintains his spot as a mid tier character.
Duck Hunt remains their place as one of the best camping characters in the game, behind Villager. Only their down-air gives the opponents a diagonal meteor smash like Samus' down-air when DI'ing.
Their only problem is only their KO potential making them more complicated against fast characters. Their matchup overall are pretty good against higher tier when played based on skill but struggles against top tiers. However, Duck Hunt has a decent representation at major tournaments.
