Susie (SSBU)

Susie (スージー, Susanna) is a newcomer to SSBU, and is a representative for Kirby Planet Robobot. She was leaked on November 12, 2017 on a 4chan post, but wouldn't be officially announced until a month later to celebrate the newest Kirby game.
Susie's fighting style is a mix of physical attacks and magical ones. Most of her attacks are based off of her boss fights, however, she doesn't use her battle suit, choosing to use her bare hands and keeping the battle suit for her Final Smash.
She is currently ranked as a High Tier in the official tier list, being the 2nd highest ranking Kirby character being beat by Meta Knight. Susie has an amazing close range game, with her quick attacks and her being able to rack up damage quickly. She also has some very potent kill moves, being able to kill somewhat easily. She also has an amazing punish and zoning game with her Side Special.
However, she still lacks reliable KO potential and her being a heavy weight with a floaty gravity hurts her the most. She can be easily put into a combo by most of the cast, even the characters ranked lower than her, and combined with her floatiness, she can be KO'd rather quickly. She also has a fairly average recovery.
Her placements and skill has shown her great potential as a character, and she has been picked up by multiple mains and is normally seen as a counter pick to characters like Sheik.
She is voiced by Makiko Ohmoto, the same voice actor for Kirby.
== Attributes ==
Susie is very strange for a Kirby series character. She's a floaty character like the other characters in her series, but has a much higher falling speed, making her heavier than her counterparts. She is considered as a "rush down" character, having quick and nimble movements and being able to rack up damage with her attacks. She can also play defensively pretty well, with her special attacks giving her stage control and her range being very well.
She does have some glaring weaknesses. Due to her being heavy, she can easily get into combos more easier than some of the cast, and combined with her floatiness, she can get KO'd easily and quickly. However, her pros overcomes her cons and she's seen as a good character by most of the community.
