===Ground attacks and projectiles===
The hitboxes of normal ground attacks follow the ''law of high and low priority''. This means that they interact with each other in terms of the damage they deal, which in turn classifies each as having "high" or "low" priority. When two ground attack hitboxes overlap, they will collide, and will either cancel each other out, or one will override (out-prioritize) the other. This collision is signified by a white "bubble", and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]'', a distinct "ting" sound, as if swords are clanging, is also heard. The law of high and low priority functions in terms of a damage (priority) range of 9%. On these terms, one ground attack must deal 9% or more damage than another attack if it is to out-prioritize it, hence, the "priority range" in ''Smash Bros'' games is 9% (note that in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the priority range is instead 10%).

The law of high and low priority functions in terms of a damage (priority) range of 9%. On these terms, one ground attack must deal 9% or more additional damage than another attack if it is to out-prioritize it, hence, the "priority range" in ''Smash Bros'' games is 9% (note that in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the priority range is instead 10%).


If two attacks cancel each other out, the animations may or may not be interrupted. This is dependent on a separate value within the hitbox, and it is believed to be irrespective of the other hitbox that collided with it.
