Master Hand's trophy in Super Smash Brothers: Melee.

Master Hand is a fictional video game character from Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. series. It appears in both Super Smash Bros. and its sequel, Super Smash Bros. Melee. It is presumed that Master Hand will also appear in the series' forthcoming third game, Super Smash Bros. Revolution. Also, Master Hand makes several appearances in Kirby and the Amazing Mirror as a miniboss, and partnered with Crazy Hand as the boss(es) of Candy Constellation.

The games have revealed that the Hands are a tiny link between the real world and the imaginary world in which the Smash Bros. games take place. This fits into the constant implications that the battling characters in the game are actually nothing more than toys. While Master Hand is the game's greatest opponent, it is also interesting to note that the game suggests that it gives the characters their life, a theory supported by the fact that all characters revert to their statue state when they defeat it. Whether Master Hand is merely the hand of a child with a toy collection and an overactive imagination, or a real entity with actual power is unknown. Imagination is, in general, the power or process of producing mental images and ideas. ...


In battle, Master Hand uses a variety of attacks, most of them related to its shape and size: it dwarfs the characters, slapping, punching, and throwing them around the platform. There are some exceptions, such as its ability to fire missiles similar to Bullet Bills and fire laser beams. Because of its size and ability to fly, it cannot be thrown off the platform as normal characters are. Instead, it has a set amount of HP which the player must bring to zero. Also, Master Hand becomes more powerful as its HP drops, as opposed to regular characters who become weaker as they accumulate damage. Master Hand's counterpart, Crazy Hand, also possesses these characteristics; however, Crazy Hand has a greater library of abilities than Master Hand (Including other strange attacks, such as dropping bombs, as well as having different effects: for instance, Master Hand's "poke" attack simply deals damage, but when Crazy Hand uses it, it freezes the target in ice on contact) and can team up with Master Hand to use still more attacks (There are three: Both hands punch together, both hands clap together, and Crazy Hand punches into Master Hand's palm. The former two begin with releasing a sleeping gas to prevent escape). Furthermore Crazy Hand is far more sporadic in combat, often prone to lengthy periods of inactivity. Crazy Hand is characterised by its twitching fingers, and is described as being the manifestation of a childish desire to destroy one's creations for amusement.
