Palutena was pretty skilled in Kid Icarus Uprising and I dare say that she’s become even stronger in the new Super Smash Bros game. Now she can fire off huge energy blasts along with an array of other new abilities. Marth is a skilled swordsman, but he doesn’t have as many supernatural abilities to back him up. Palutena won’t be losing this round. Palutena wins.

Update 2/7/2019 Thanks to Fire Emblem Warriors Marth is strong and fast enough to win this round. Marth wins.
