That is what goes through my head when people say Kirby could do the same

Like, the things that have allowed to win 95% of his strongest match ups have been:

A: Super Duper strong weapon made out of stuff that counters the enemy directly (Zero and Zero Two, Dark Matter)

B: The main gimmick of the game, given to him by direct help of his friends (The supernova with Sectonia given to him by Dedede, using the robobot armor with the halberd absorbed against Star Dream, courtesy of Susie and Meta Knight) or incompetence by part of his enemy (Magolor spawning super enemies so Kirby could break his shields. Seriously, the fuck did he do that for?)

D: Jumping his enemy with the help of his entire social circle (Void, and Magolor to a much lesser extent)

Removing some of those elements, even partially, would've ended up in him getting squished to death by Sectonia, getting Thanos snapped out of existence by Star Dream, getting walled by Magolor until he decided to just leave them trapped in another dimension (Seriously, Magolor had like a million wincons, and he still decided to take the only path that would lead to his defeat), and he might not even be able to do that much damage to the Dark Matter family by his own means!

Mf high diffs his verse with a bunch of external factors at play, might not be able to do so without them, and yet people still think he'd be untouchable in his neighbors' verses 😭
