How to beat Incineroar as Peach in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
These are basic tips on how to beat Incineroar. We don't have tips for how
Peach specifically should play. If you have advice for this matchup - consider adding them to help the community!
Neutral
Incineroar can use Nair to drift in effectively much like Mario can
Up Tilt is also a good move for him to use when very close as it hits both sides
If they’re feeling confident, they will go for raw Side B early on to catch you out or to tech chase
Advantage
Down Tilt will scoop you up and make him crouch that will let him avoid most aerials
This can lead into a Fair and then possibly a Side B
His Up Air is great for juggling people
All of the Pokemon’s Smash Attacks hit hard but lots of end lag
Incineroar has strong throws that can kill at ledge at higher percents
His Forward Tilt is a kill move at high percents as well
Disadvantage
Incineroar can use his Neutral B to get you off of him (this can shield break if the 3 hit boxes all connect)
This comes out very quick and lasts several frames
He can use Revenge! To break combos
Bait this out and punish or use Grabs/Command Grabs
If Incineroar uses Revenge! Successfully, grabbing him in any form will cause him to lose his buff
Most players use Side B almost immediately after hitting Revenge!
Bait out Smash Attacks and his Side B to leave him vulnerable
Off Stage
Incineroar will almost always have to use Side B as his first recovery tool
Be careful challenging this as they can intentionally mess up their Side B timing to leave you closer to the Blast Zone
Making Incineroar go low will make it much harder for him to recover
If Incineroar has to land on Stage after performing his Up B he will be very exposed to a punish
Just watch out for the landing hit box
Stage Picks
Avoid tri-plats for continuous Up Airs
Incineroar is slow so bigger stages like Town and City don’t work for him
