All-Around (also called All-Rounder, All-Round, Balance, Balanced) is one of the possible types playable characters can be classified as throughout the Super Mario franchise. All-Around characters are generally the most balanced of all play types, usually featuring slightly above average scores in all stats without major flaws or strong stats.
