What would be the best strategy to KO your enemy in Sudden Death? Special D + Smash D sometimes works wonders for me. Sometimes when I'm facing a beginner, I escape to the air and try to Aerial Hammer.

Up tilt :D

...up throw. Or forward throw if you're feeling arrogant.

I lost a sudden death recently because I used down throw out of habit, and that didn't ko him. >_< sometimes when I grab people, I'm throwing them before I can even think.

^B for sure. The wave beam of it can kill most of the time, and when you get close and hit your foe's and they will fly. XD

Jump-out-of-shield b-air.

THE way to go.

I have not played Sudden Death for a long time, though...

fsmash just because it's got a longer reach
yay for little kirby having strangely long feets =]
not sure if final cutter could kill them in one hit, but definitely worth the try!

I usually attempt to finish them with a f-smash, and if they try to hit me from behind, shield and d-smash their face! For fun I just try to rock them, while on the ground, opponents are almost never aware of the stone's hitbox...

I usually do bair until they have no idea what's happening, but yeahh... I play real idiots on wi-fi. On more experienced playersI do a short hop towards my opponent then do Side+B... Usually works, unless the person you're facing likes to spot dodge...

Well it really depends on the stage you are on... But I have fun and take risks a lot. I usually crouch the whole time and use d-tilt whenever someone comes close and they go sliding back :D. Other times I just keep air dodging to try and catch a bomb to throw at them :p Oh yeah and theres nothing like seeing the DI blow our opponents straight through that path in the Temple where they just miss that small wall that they can wall tech off of.

When I get into Sudden Deaths, I try to avoid their first attack, then attack with a F-smash. Sometimes if I feel brave I try to go into it with a F-air but only when I'm playing complete n00bs. Any true competent Smash player is going to avoid that. :)

Sudden death is not part of tourneys
You obviously do not kirbycide enough.

I do it more with Dedede when I am very high % and am about to lose, inhale and just die, sudden death happens.
With Kirby I tend to spit out, but if I dont the same thing happens.

And to answer the OP, I usually Bair spam to keep him away or upthrow.
Didnt think up-b would kill him. Will have to try.

I usually start taunting and running and evading until the bombs drop then I spam SH into Air Dodge to catch a bomb and then I throw that at them.
