Final Smash - Konga Beat:
This attack isn’t that fancy. He just pulls out a set of drums and starts playing, sending soundwaves our around him. Very simple, and doesn’t stand much of a chance of getting a KO. Damage is 3-70.
Strategy:
DK is slow, but his attacks back a punch and extend a ways. When in close, don’t try for your slow smash attacks, us regular attacks or your ground slap to build damage and a bit of distance. Always keep a giant punched charged up when you can, as it is fairly fast and can easily KO.
Defense Strategy:
While his is big, he’s not very heavy, so you can send him flying easier then the other big guys. You still need to build damage, but it’s easier to get in close and use quick low-damaging attacks then projectiles.
From SuperCheats.com Forum:
Here are some extra comments from the members of our forums for Donkey Kong...
The original Nintendo character, back for the Smash Bros. hat-trick. Donkey Kong, or D.K. for short, is one of the games more powerful characters, though compared to felow powerhouse Bowser, has some exceptional speed. His fist-based specials can cause all sorts of headaches for his opponents.
Special Attacks
Standard: Giant Punch. By pressing the special attack button, Donkey Kong charges up a powerful punch. Pressing B again after it is fully - or partially - charged will throw the punch. If he is hit during the charge, the charge will be cancelled. Py pressing any other button, the charge will be cancelled and he will store what is currently charged.
Side: Headbutt. Donkey Kong slams his head down in front of him, powerful enough to drive anyone in front of him in to the ground, allowing anyone o attack them without knockback. It has powerful knockback if done in the air.
Up: Spinning Kong. Donkey Kong spins around rapidly to move along air. The move gains more horizontal distance than vertical. On ground, it can be manovered side to side.
Down: Hand Slap. Donkey Kong slams the ground with his hands, causing the ground to tremor around him. This move can be used repeatedly for an easy way to take care of large crowds.
Final Smash: Konga Beat. Takes out the DK Bongos and beats away at them, the shockwaves from the music damaging nearby enemies. By pressing buttons to the beat, the damage can be increased.

lots of friends I have do not like donkey kong why. He can use his smash moves three times and you are blown. His b down was the main reason why I completed 100 man brawl in melee.
Dks down smash is great use it often as well as tilt up
good strategy
Donkey kong is highly underrated, and can be quite the opponent if used correctly. Im a DK main and ive even taken out a meta knight in some competitive matches.
GO TO SMASH WORLD FORUMS IF YOU WANT TO GET BETTER
HATE HIM he is like bowser but worse his attackss are clunky and he is just toooooooooooooooooo slownhe is like bowser but WAY worse bowser has good final heavy duty attacks and is faster then this guy
I think the best strategy ever is this: choose team battle and coose Donkey Kong. Then choose Green Hill zone as your stage. Use your down special move to destroy the floor and your teammate/s will KO them into the hole. I have used this strategy many times and not lost once. Try it for yourself and see!
I suggest you change us to use under Strategy. It makes it look like you are regular attacks.
This is the funny part were you automatically thank me for this comment.
DK is one of the few characters that can be used in a very cheap way. I'm talking about the suicide grab. Grab the opponent near an edge, put him on your back and walk off the edge. A move only noobs should use seriously and everyone should use if they just wanna be a funny jerk :P
Do not spam the headbutt. If you do, people will run away. Use your down smash and your down special, theyre both very good. Also, always have a Giant punch charged and ready to go. Remember, when your bored, don't taunt; CHARGE THAT PUNCH!
