| − | Meta Knight is more or less a Sword/Wing Kirby Glass Cannon hybrid.

| − | * Tips
| |
| − | ** Because of his innate ability to fly, many co-op strategies involve the main Kirby riding on Meta Metaknight.
| |
| − | *** However, there is a misconception that flying over everything is the fastest strategy for levels. '''Meta Knight flying is still only horizontally as fast as running.''' This means Condor Head, Burning, Wave Surf, Tornado Attack, Cutter Dash, and even Slide Attacking are all faster than flying. Therefore, Kirby riding on Meta Knight's back should only happen when a Wing Kirby would fly in a solo-run.
| |
| − | ** Generally, Meta Spin Slash gives the easiest, most consistent DPS against grounded bosses/minibosses.
| |
| − | ** Shuttle loop is jump-cancellable. This means that Meta Knight can use shuttle loop, flap once, then shuttle loop again, giving excellent DPS better than Wing Kirby's Dive Bomb (but it is very difficult and straining), even factoring in damage reduction. This should be used against all aerial bosses/minibosses, and larger grounded bosses.
| |
| − | ** Thanks to his excellent power in both spin attack and shuttle loop, and his innate ability to fly, Meta Knight is generally ideal co-op player to use for most co-op speedruns.

| − | * Character Differences <ref name="RR"/>
| |
| − | ** 10% less HP than Kirby
| |
| − | ** Shuttle Loop forces Meta Knight to enter a glide state whereas Kirby can't glide after Upward Slash, but can optionally follow up with Sword Dive
| |
| − | ** Can do Condor Dive whenever he wants whereas Kirby can only do Sword Dive after Upward Slash
| |
| − | ** Can do Up Thrust
| |
| − | ** Meta Knight has the same basic ground sword combo as Kirby plus an additional 2 attacks between Kirby's 1st and 2nd attack
| |
| − | ** Flying as Meta Knight is identical to Wing Kirby's Hover Flap. Overall, this makes him vertically the fastest
| |
| − | ** More damage on most attacks than Sword Kirby
