Smash Bros Ultimate: How to Beat Ganon (Classic Mode)

How to Beat Ganon in Super Smash Bros Ultimate

Super Smash Bros Ultimate is the latest entry in Nintendo’s popular fighting party game, and it’s shaping up to be the best and biggest Smash game we’ve seen yet. Aside from diving into the game’s story campaign, World of Light, players can also take on a gauntlet of battles in Classic Mode. Ganon is one of the bosses you’ll face in Classic Mode, and here’s what you need to know about how to beat Ganon in Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

When you play as either Link or Young Link in Classic Mode, Ganon will show up as the final boss for that character. If you just attack him head on, you’ll likely notice that you won’t be able to deal any damage to him at all. That’s because you need to hit his weak spot.

If you take a closer look at his character model in Smash Bros Ultimate, you’ll also notice that his tail is glowing. What you want to do here is jump behind Ganon and hit his tail. Once you’ve done enough damage to his tail, Ganon will get stunned for a few seconds, allowing you to get in some good damage.

In order to get behind him, a good strategy is to double jump in the air and propel yourself slightly forward by pushing the ZR button. This will allow you to land at his tail, and get some hits in. However, do be warned that Ganon will turn around quickly whenever you get behind him.

To get around this problem in Smash Bros Ultimate, try to wait for him to initiate an attack with some wind-up time, then use those few seconds to quickly jump behind him. Just keep repeating this strategy, and you’ll eventually be able to wear him down and beat him.

That’s pretty much all you need to know about how to beat Ganon in Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Be sure to check our Smash Bros Ultimate guide wiki for more tips and information on the game.
