Smash Ultimate added new fighters Pyra and Mythra in Update 11.0.0, along with a huge pile of Pichu buffs, long-awaited min-min nerfs, and more – here are all of the buffs, nerfs, and changes in the March 4th patch notes .
The biggest headliner in 11.0.0 is the new Smash Fighter: Pyra and Mythra.
The duo Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a unique combo act – the first in Smash Ultimate – in which Pyra dominates the battlefield with her legendary flame attacks, while Mythra fights with a sword. The two-in-one fighter will be available on live servers once 11.0.0 is installed until Nintendo’s go-ahead is given.
A new Xenoblade card with the name “Cloud Sea of Alrest” was released in addition to Pyra in 11.0.0. It is a standard eight-player battlefield.
Pyra and Mythra were added to the ever-growing Smash Ultimate roster in 11.0.0.
Pichu gains survival buffs in 11.0.0
Smash’s 11.0.0 update offers 26 fighters a ton of buffs and nerfs.
Some of the biggest changes are coming for the cute Pokemon fighter Pichu as Nintendo tries to improve his survivability. The electric mouse fighter no longer takes as much damage when using Side Smash, Forward Air Attack, Forward Throw, Side Special, and Up Special.

Pichu will be “invincible” even during the damage window of his neutral airstrike.

Pichu cut nerfs down to Side Smash, Forward Throw, Up Special, and more.
Min Min finally shredded
On the other side of the 11.0.0 coin, the infamous ARMS downloadable fighter Min Min is beaten and moved nerfs with nearly half a dozen skills.
Min Min’s Side Smash Attack is hit the hardest. It now takes less time to charge and has a “reduced take-off distance” for the dragon’s lasers while using Dragon’s ARM. Min Min’s Air Dodge has also increased its vulnerability.

The same nerf was also applied to the controversial fighter’s falling frames.

Min Min, notoriously one of Smash’s most hated fighters, has finally been shredded.
The new 11.0.0 update should be available now on all Nintendo consoles, including Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite.
