Air acceleration

This article or section may require additional technical data. The editor who added this tag elaborates: Other games; Smash 4 data missing Roy and Cloud You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

Air acceleration is the rate at which a character can change their horizontal velocity in midair. High air acceleration is advantageous for recovery and aerial combat, as it allows a character to reach their maximum air speed sooner and change direction more easily. Characters with high air acceleration do not necessarily have high air speed.
