Toad is the powerhouse of the group, specializing in speed and strength. He pulls up items and enemies significantly faster than any other character, making him incredibly efficient in combat-focused stages or when you need to quickly clear a path. Furthermore, Toad has the strongest throwing arm, allowing him to throw items and enemies further. His main drawback is his weakest jump, which can make some platforming sections more challenging. Toad is the ideal choice for stages where you need to quickly dispatch many enemies, clear obstacles, or if you prefer a more aggressive, ground-based playstyle. He's also excellent for boss fights that require throwing projectiles.
