"My one wish is to become stronger...So I wish to fight...the greatest warrior in the galaxy!"
Meta Knight was a playable character in Mushroom Kingdom Fusion. He acted as Kirby's clone, focusing more on melee attacks. He was removed from the game in v0.65, along with Kirby, Ryu Hayabusa & Samus because they were "buggy, unbalanced or unfinished." However, in the v0.83 and v0.84, Both of the latter characters came back from the dead and became playable characters again.
History[]
Meta Knight first appeared in Kirby's Adventure for the NES, where he battled Kirby in a sword duel. In a surprising twist, his next role had him play the villain in Revenge of Meta Knight, where he gathered his battleship, the Halbred, and led a takeover of Dream Land to try and reform it. Generally, Meta Knight is on his own side and only allies with Kirby to fight against a greater evil.
Gameplay[]
Meta Knight is essentially a melee version of Kirby. He lacks the Copy Ability and the ability to inhale foes, so he fights using his sword, Galaxia. He can perform a basic slash, a dashing slash and an upward stab on the ground. He can perform a whirling slash in the air and underwater.
