Introduction
Yoshi ranks 6th on SSB's current tier list due to having the most damaging move in the game (down aerial), a very unique double jump which allows him to get out of combos and/or reduce knockback of moves and to DJC, and a unique shield that allows Yoshi to egg parry. However, despite having a these properties, Yoshi has a terrible grab and bad out of shield moves which prevents Yoshi from properly dealing with characters with high pressure, namely Kirby, Fox, and Pikachu.
