*'''Poor Vertical Recovery''': While Horizontally Nigel has no problem getting on stage, Vertically is where he falters. Whale Crash is a lackluster recovery which doesn't go very high and requires previous momentum to go very far horizontally. It also completely lacks a rising hitbox and only has a falling hitbox by frame 31 onwards. Losing your jump or getting called out offstage is often a death sentence.
*'''Struggles To Approach''': Nigel lacks safe ways to approach the opponent, as he is slow and all his burst options are incredibly unsafe on shield, especially on the ground. His tall hurtbox also means that projectiles can go over his grab and 66S while still hitting his head.

Story

I'll do this with my hands!

Nigel Archibald Thornberry is a husband, father, and incredibly devoted Zoologist who Spends his life creating Wildlife documentaries with his nomadic family. His itch for adventure doesn't limit him just to the wild, as now it has gotten him into the Brawl! Absolutely Smashing!

Gameplay

Nigel Thornberry is a heavyweight fighter that emphasizes footsies. A lot of his attacks are on the slower side but make up for it with high knockback; a cancelled dash attack can quickly rack up any damage deficit Nigel might be at. His Up Light and Aerial Neutral Light are combo tools any explorer would want to have in their backpack that allow him to pressure opponents before ending with one of his powerful Strong attacks.

His Down Special Flick can decisively end a match with it's insane power, but you'll have to be very precise as the hitbox is extremely small, and despite being a heavyweight The Worm gives him one of the only intangible movement options in the game that can let him easily reposition or dodge an attack.

If you want to hit hard and have a smashing good time doing it, Nigel's who you want on your safari!

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Mobility: Nigel possesses interesting mobility options with his natural aerial drift, Falcon Dive, Frog Hop, and The Worm. He has tools that most other characters lack and can use it well to mix-up the opponent.
  • Combo Game: What's Over There? is one of the best combo tools in the game, allowing Nigel to air juggle his opponent to kill %.
  • Walling Capabilities: Moves like Woodpecker and Falcon Five are great for keeping the opponent at bay, especially in tandem with strafe.
  • Vertical KO Power: His j.8L is a great normal which combos into Flick at certain percents, this along with his above average j.8S make Nigel's Vertical power nothing to scoff at. His j.6 throw and 4 throw provide an unreactable DI mix up that combos into a flick kill at very low percents.
  • Survivability: Being a heavyweight with good mobility and above average horizontal recovery, Nigel will be living to very high percents and opponents will have a hard time K.O-ing him.
  • Struggles Against Disjoints: Nigel likes to get in peoples face during offense and with no long ranged moves or disjoints of his own, He struggles against characters like Lincoln and Leo.
  • Poor Vertical Recovery: While Horizontally Nigel has no problem getting on stage, Vertically is where he falters. Whale Crash is a lackluster recovery which doesn't go very high and requires previous momentum to go very far horizontally. It also completely lacks a rising hitbox and only has a falling hitbox by frame 31 onwards. Losing your jump or getting called out offstage is often a death sentence.
  • Struggles To Approach: Nigel lacks safe ways to approach the opponent, as he is slow and all his burst options are incredibly unsafe on shield, especially on the ground. His tall hurtbox also means that projectiles can go over his grab and 66S while still hitting his head.

Nigel slithers forward like a worm.

18% (air hit) 14% (landing) 31 31 until landing - -26

Nigel hops upward, then falls down and beaches like a whale. Has no hitbox on the way up but becomes a powerful attack once Nigel starts falling, with a second landing hitbox as well. It travels a decent height, but it has poor air speed and drift. Its poor vertical distance combined with a lack of an upward hitbox makes it a pretty risky and exploitable recovery tool, but it does big damage and knockback if it hits. If Nigel lands on top of an opponent, you can cancel this move with a jump even if your double jump was already used, preventing you from simply plummeting to the bottom blast zone. This can allow for complete reversal where you spike you opponent into the bottom blast zone while recovering yourself, potentially even higher if they had never tried to intercept you. If the attack misses or is blocked, it's very unsafe, but ledge canceling and sliding off of platforms can make it safer.

Tiny hitbox. Huge power. Flick is a high risk attack that can net kills even at lower percents. Your number 1 kill option, hit it as often as you can and watch your opponents stocks evaporate. An incomplete list of moves that can true combo into it depending on DI and percent include : up tilt, down tilt, light dash attack, strong dash attack, nair, up air, dair, grounded forward throw, grounded up throw, and air forward throw. Also use it as an RPS win punish and an OOS punish for poorly spaced moves, or if the move is laggy enough (such as a dash attack) a forward wavedash into flick.
