Mii Gunner

The Miis were created around the release of the Nintendo Wii in 2006. Nintendo developed a slew of titles that used a new avatar system, the Miis, to introduce people to the console's motion control and have some first-party content at release. The basic idea being that players could create themselves and play various games with these avatars. As a matter of fact, Mii titles are among the most sold for the console, with Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort taking first and third place.

Interestingly enough, the Mii fighters would not make their debut appearance in Super Smash Bros Brawl, the Wii entry in the franchise. It would take until the release of the Wii U and Super Smash Bros 4 for the trio to make their way into the icon stages of Super Smash Bros. Each of the characters focuses on a particular playstyle, with some moves being similar, but not outright copies, of other characters.

Mii Gunner is a range specialist with various tools to maintain zone control. They are also the most survivable of the three Mii fighters giving them a lot of time to land a powerful special. Sadly their limited mobility can be a big disadvantage due to their long start frame times for many of their attacks, which leaves the character open to being punished. Perhaps then it shouldn't be a surprise that they are considered the weaker of the three Mii fighters. In modern Super Smash Bros Ultimate play, there is a time and place for them, but the versatility of the character rapidly falls apart when faced with its flaws. Nevertheless, it is a great secondary or tertiary pick to keep up with the rest.
