Thinking about Steve right now.
He looks super fun to play.
He also looks like a character that is difficult to master, but when you master, he can be dangerous as hell.
I already see "STEVE IS BROKEN!!!" thumbnails. Yes, Steve is quite good in some aspects, but he isn't a top five character in my opinion.
I feel like fast characters like
,
,
,
, and others can take advantage of him by making him struggle to mine.
Also, Steve's recovery is godlike. Probably the best out of the DLC characters' recoveries.
Steve is also going to play like Villager in terms of edgeguarding, but on a ton of steroids. I feel bad for mains who have bad recoveries right now.
So, is this character a top five broken character? No. Is a skilled Steve going to give you a rough time? Yes.
