10 Most Overpowered Multiplayer Attacks EVERYONE Hated

5. King K. Rool's Grab - Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Since Super Smash Bros. launched, people have been begging the creators to incorporate King K. Rool into a sequel. But when Donkey Kong's arch-nemesis was added to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's roster, fans couldn't help thinking of the proverb, "Be careful what you wish for."

K. Rool is the second heaviest character, making him very difficult to knock off platforms. Combined with the fact his Up-Special keeps him in the air almost as long as Kirby, the crowned Kremling is the hardest combatant to toss off-screen.

Not only does he have terrific projectiles and a sturdy shield, his attacks have devastating launch power and meteor smash capabilities. His blunderbuss pushes his opponents away, making it tough for anyone to get near him. Also, he has the best recovery of any heavyweight character.

But the worst thing about K. Rool is his hurling skills. His Down-Throw can paralyse his opponent, allowing the regal croc to raise their damage meter to 40% with a single strike. If his enemy's damage meter is 40%+, K. Rool can kill them with another solid hurl.

Even though King K. Rool has been toned down since, players quake in their boots anytime the chunky reptile appears in the arena.
