Master Hand: Difference between revisions

Master Hand reappears in the sequel to ''Super Smash Bros.'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. This game introduces Master Hand's counterpartbrother, [[Crazy Hand]], which is said to embody a lust for destruction (the game also says that Master Hand embodies creation). The battle against the Master Hand in this game is nearly identical to that of the original ''Super Smash Bros.''; after defeating all opposition, the player faces Master Hand in [[Final Destination]]. The only difference is that if the player clears all stages on the normal difficulty or higher within 10 minutes and without using a continue, Crazy Hand appears once Master Hand has lost half of his HP; as in the original, once Master Hand (and sometimes Crazy Hand) is defeated, the player reverts into a trophy, appearing among the trophies of others who have defeated the Master Hand.

In the Subspace Emissary storyline, Master Hand makes his debut as the leader of the Subspace Army, commanding his loyal minions, [[Ganondorf]], [[Bowser]], and [[Wario]]. However, near the end, it is discovered that Master Hand is being controlled by [[Tabuu]] via the chains of light in order to trick Ganondorf, Bowser, and Wario into drawing the entire [[Mushroom World|world]] into [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]]. Angered, Ganondorf attempts to attack Tabuu, but he is blocked by a force field and turned into a trophy upon smashing into Master Hand. This severs the chains holding Master Hand, which tries to fight Tabuu but is knocked to the ground by the force field, where he lies either dead or unconscious for the remainder of the mode. It is interesting to note that when Master Hand is knocked out, he does not turn into a trophy as everyone else does.
