| - Zero Suit Samus is a playable veteran in Super Smash Flash 2. She was first announced during the SSF2 demo v0.9b Trailer, and appeared in the McLeodGaming's booth at Apex 2014 alongside Marth and Chibi-Robo. Her sprite design is based on her appearance in Metroid: Zero Mission; her moveset and voice clips are taken directly from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Zero Suit Samus is still currently ranked 4th on the tier list, a small drop from her 2nd place spot on the previous tier list. Zero Suit has disjointed range in her attacks, amazing mobility, good zoning ability and finishers in her forward smash, up aerial, back aerial and neutral aerial. Samus has a good long distance recovery due to her high air speed, good vertical mobility, she can use Flip Jump multiple times has a large ledge sweet spot thanks to her aerials. Her disjointed attacks allow for her to wall out her enemies and keep them at bay. However, Zero Suit has below average weight which allows her to be KO'ed horizontally earlier. She has problems KO'ing due to her finishers, outside of back aerial, need to being close to the blast line to kill or her opponents need to be at very high percentages. Her recovery, although covers a lot of distance, can be easily ledge hogged if timed right. Due to her height and being an average faller, makes her easy to hit. Zero Suit Samus is a strong character with very few flaws which is why she is ranked close to the top. However, even though Samus has a high placement on the tier list, she has a low player base and small representation in online tournaments. She gets high placements in tournaments due to Kyoz playing her and taking top spots with her.
