Description
Mario is the protagonist of the Super Mario franchise and the mascot of the company Nintendo. Due to the physics and flaws of SSF, Mario doesn't have his balanced status he has carried over the real Smash Bros. series. Mario can shoot fireballs, can deal high and low kicks as is able to perform an aerial Mario Tornado. His jump also works as an attack.

Moveset
In addition, his jump animation resembles the Super Jump Punch (just without coins) which also serves as an attack.
