Tier List Placement

Tier

A zoning machine who can use powerful disjoints from across the stage

Min Min is a non-traditional zoner, who uses her long disjointed arms to attack from across the stage. She is able to change the type of arm she uses with neutral B, and alternate smash attacks with forward smash and side special. She also has the ability to use smash attacks in the air, and her up smash is one of the fastest in the game, making it great out of shield. Min Min's edgeguarding game is also extremely dealy, as she can edgeguard opponents safely from the stage, after throwing them off with a grab.

While great at edgeguarding, Min Min herself is susceptible to edgeguards, as she has a rather poor recovery. She also has a bad disadvantage state, and has few ways to retaliate when put above an opponent. Min Min's moves have considerable endlag too, so to make the most of this character, it's important to keep opponents out and don't try to fight up close if possible.

Min Min Moveset

Min Min Fighter Ability

Tilt attacks use Min Min's left arm while the special button uses Min Min's right arm. Both arms will use a smash attack if the special and attack button is pressed at the same time. Holding smash button charges Min Min's right arm. Min Min's punches can be angled by using the left stick. During an attack, you can jump and use the other arm to attack. You cannot jump during a smash attack, but you can do a smash attack midair. You can attack behind you after using an attack using your other arm. Min Min's arms bounce off of walls When an arm is shielded, it loses momentum. By throwing an opponent, Min Min's left arm gets strengthened for a short while.

Attacks with both arms, depending on button

Min Min's unique ability lies in the fact that some of her attacks (forward tilt, forward smash, and forward air) can be done with both her left and right arms, depending on whether the attack or special button are used. Her down B also allows her to cycle through arm types, so that she can have a different effect on her type arm.

MInmin's left arm gets stronger after a grab

Min Min's arms also get a damage increase after grabbing an enemy. Make sure to utilize this when enemies approach you to put some distance between the two of you and get a damage boost!

Jab (Neutral Attack)

Jab

Rapidly pressing the Attack button will execute Min Min's Jab. It's a 1-2 combo followed by a rapid hit into a finisher kick. Min Min struggles up close, so this will be a tool used to hit opponents who have gotten in near Min Min.

When holding the attack or special button, Min Min will instead do a forward tilt with the respective arm.

Tilt Attacks and Dash Attack

Dash Attack

Min Min's Dash Attack is a quick flying kick. It can be used to punish enemies who use moves with high-end lag from afar. It's also a great tech chase tool.

Forward Tilt

Min Min can use either her left arm, or her right arm to do a forward tilt, by using the attack or special button respectively. She can move and jump while using the move, and it can also be angled.

Up Tilt

Min Min's uptilt hits a wide area above her by performing a wheel kick above her. Its main use is to prevent enemies from approaching her from the air, but at low percents, it can also be a great combo starter.

Down Tilt

Min Min's Down Tilt is a quick side attack that sends enemies flying vertically. This makes it a great combo starter or a quick getaway maneuver.

Smash Attacks

Forward Smash

Megawatt arm is slow but incredibly powerful!

Side Special Ground	Angle can be changed Can be charged for more damage attack changes depending on arm mode used.
Side Special Air	Range gets smaller

Min Min's side special is essentially the same as her forward smash, but the attack that gets used depends on her current right arm type.

Up Smash

It also reflects projectiles!

Min Min's Upsmash is a somersault kick that covers more area than her Up Tilt. It has quick startup, and you can also use it to reflect projectiles at the enemy, so it's great for many things!

Down Smash

Min Min's down smash is an attack that kicks on both sides of her. It looks similar to Fox's down smash, though not as powerful. It does give her brief intangibility.

Aerials

Neutral Air

Min Min's neutral air makes her swing her arm in a circular motion. It can be done with her left or right arm, depending on whether the attack or special button is used. For the right arm, the damage and speed changes depending on the current arm equipped, with Ramram being quick, while Megawatt is slow but powerful.

Up Air

Similar to her Up Tilt and Up Smash, her Up Air is a somersault kick that hits an arc above her. It's a great combo tool and a great anti-air attack against enemies approaching from above.

Down Air

Min Min's down air is a dive kick. While it can be used to attack enemies, it can also be used as a “get back to the ground ASAP” move, as this is where Min Min's specialty shines. You can go for aerials to stop enemies from approaching above, then use Down Air to create some distance. However, an opponent may try and punish its landing.

Special Attacks

Down Special (ARMS Change)

Ramram	Faster than other arms Ramram's attack angle is the easiest to adjust Deals fire damage
Megawatt	Slow Angle can't be adjusted too much Incredibly powerful and can KO enemies at low percent if fully charged
Dragon	Average range, speed, and damage Most balanced arm Releases a fire breath attack if held.

Down Special is Min Min's Arm change. It's a key feature to playing Min Min, as it allows you to change your playstyle and attack depending on her current arm equipped. The three arms available are Ramram, Megawatt, and Dragon which all have different strengths and weaknesses.

Ramram

Ramram is an excellent arm to use for quick damage and fast enemies. Its attack area easy to adjust and can even be used to hit enemies that are trying to recover from ledges.

Megawatt

Megawatt is Min Min's strongest arm. At the expense of power, however, it loses a massive amount of speed which makes it not the safest option to choose during one on one games. During brawls, however, you can score a massive amount of kills with it.

Dragon

Dragon is Min Min's standard arm, and is the most balanced of them all. It can be angled easier than Megawatt, and has enough firepower to KO enemies. It can also unleash a fire breath attack which makes it more versatile in hitting enemies from afar.

Up Special (ARMS Jump/ARM Hook)

When on stage, Min Min's Up Special is Arms Jump. It grants temporary intangibility, making it a good option for escaping opponents.

Offstage, Min Min's Up special turns into an arm hook, which is used as a tether recovery. You can use this to grab the ledge quickly and make a safe return.

Grab and Throws

Forward Throw

Min Min's forward throw doesn't lead to combos but it can be used to throw enemies offstage. Follow it up with Ramram's speedy hit to stop them from recovering.

Back Throw

Min Min's back throw is a strong move and has a great knockback. It can be used to kill enemies at high percents when you're at the ledge.

Up Throw

Like all of her up related moves, her up to throw kicks the enemies upward. While it's not as reliable as her back throw for getting kills, it can do it at high percents (around 160% or more) and when used on platforms.

Down Throw

Min Min's down throw deals low damage and can't lead to combos. It's a move that you should avoid in most cases.

Final Smash (ARMS Rush)

All the members of ARMS gather and unleash a barrage of attacks with Min Min as a super finisher.
