| - Mega Man is a playable veteran character in Super Smash Flash 2. In Super Smash Flash 2, the classic blue bomber Mega Man replaces the Mega Man X model that first appeared in Super Smash Flash. Mega Man uses a variety of weapons and adapters from many of his games. Mega Man's old appearance consisted of ripped straight sprites from Mega Man 7. Mega Man's new appearance consists of custom made sprites based on his appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U with him receiving some of his moveset from said game, but also including some of his moves from his previous SSF2 moveset. Mega Man is currently ranked 19th of B tier on the tier list; a small drop from his 18th-place position of B tier last tier list. Mega Man has good combo ability, a good projectile game, good reach in the majority of his attacks and kill moves in his down smash, up and back aerial, up tilt, a fully charged Mega Buster and Crash Bomber when near a blast line. Mega Man's strong array of projectiles gives him decent approach options and allows him to gain some stage control. However, Mega Man is susceptible to combos and chain grabs, due to his above average weight and his status as a high faller. His recovery is predictable and if the opponent knows how it works could put Mega Man in a bad situation. His plasma shots also do not make his opponents flinch which worsens his approach game and gives him no safe options to stop his opponents from gimping his recovery, without cancelling the move. The majority of his projectiles are predictable and can be bypassed or reflected by those who read his movements correctly. Mega Man's cons slightly overshadow his pros, putting him on the lower end of mid tier. Mega Man appears to have a small player base and has poor representation in online tournaments. The few Mega Man players do not actively participate in tournaments. The few that do normally do not take high placements in tournaments.
