[There are 15 new challengers in Super Smash Bros Brawl. This series will feature each new contender and rank them on their fighting potential with the Infendo Smash-O-Meter! The Smash-O-Meter measures each character (on a scale of 0 to 300) on their uniqueness and potential as a great Brawler. Spoilers are present, so be careful if you wish to remain unspoilt.]
Sonic the Hedgehog
Replacing Alex Kidd as the Sega mascot, Sonic made his debut in 1991. Meant to be edgier than Mario, Sonic was given the speed of the wind to assist him in his adventures. Collecting rings and emeralds, Sonic dashed his way from Sega across nearly every game platform made.
Game Appearances:
over 30 games in the Sonic series, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, and the Sega Superstars games
His speed is his greatest asset. Sonic might be able to run rings around his opponents and smash with the awesome power of Super Sonic. (Puns!)
Based on Sonic’s speed and legacy, how would you rank him for Super Smash Bros Brawl?
