[Smash Bros. SP] 2026 latest character rank (Tier table)! Will Steve Sonic’s era as a top power continue?

It has been a while since the last update, but research has progressed on the competitive environment of Super Smash Bros. SP, and the evaluation of some characters has changed.
As of January 2026, we will consider the latest strongest character rankings based on the results of offline tournaments and VIP matches.

SS rank: Top environment (restricted grade)

It is said that countermeasures are required, and it is said that if the user is not good at it, you will not be able to win.

• Steve:
  “Mining” and “block generation” are still too strong. Techniques such as PMLG have become widespread, and the ability to deny shooting down is extraordinary. Undoubtedly the best candidate.
• Sonic:
  His ability to speed up his time with spins and his ability to prevent recovery is overwhelming. He is the number one person I hate both online and offline.

S rank: Top regular in tournaments

These characters have the potential to compete with SS ranks.

• Game & Watch:
  “Chef” cliff hunting and “Upper B” Garcan are powerful. It has strong skill judgment and high ability to cause accidents.
• Robot:
  Set plays using pieces and high recovery ability are attractive. Even though it’s a heavyweight, there are plenty of shooting combos, so there’s no chance.
• Homura/Hikari:
  Hikari’s firepower gain and Homura’s shooting power. It’s simple and has a lot of character power.

Summary

In the end, your winning rate will depend on how you deal with “Steve”. Let’s prepare countermeasures using your own character.
