Formally known as the '''[[Knee Smash]]''', Captain Falcon sticks out his knee. If it lands during the initial frames, the opponent is electrocuted and suffers extremely high knockback, with the move being difficult to [[DI]] out of. If it lands any other time, the move is very weak with little knockback, though it can be chained into another Knee, and it can [[gimp]] some recoveries (such as {{SSBM|Falco}}'s) in certain situations. Captain Falcon can also [[SHFFL]] this move so he can effectively follow up with his other great aerials, including itself. Considered one of the best moves in ''Melee'' and the most powerful forward aerial. Can impressively KO as low as 60% off stage.  
Known as the '''[[Knee Smash]]''', Captain Falcon sticks out his knee. If [[sweetspot]]ted (located anywhere on the hitbox during the first frames of execution), the opponent is electrocuted and suffer extremely high knockback, with the move being difficult to [[DI]] out of. If [[sourspot]]ted, the move is very weak with little knockback, though it can be chained into another Knee, and it can [[gimp]] some recoveries (such as {{SSBM|Falco}}'s) in certain situations. Captain Falcon can also [[SHFFL]] this move so he can effectively follow up with his other great aerials. Considered one of the best moves in ''Melee'' and the most powerful forward aerial. Can impressively KO as low as 60% off stage.  


It can be utilized in many of Captain Falcon's aerial [[combo]]s, being an excellent combo finisher and versatile part of his combos alike, as well as a generally great KO move and [[edgeguarder]]. At low percentages on grounded opponents, the move can also chain into itself. A clean knee can even be followed up with an aerial [[Falcon Punch]] in the legendary "[[Sacred Combo]]".
It can make use for many of Captain Falcon's aerial [[combo]]s as well as to attack opponents on the ground. At low percentages on grounded opponents, the move can also chain into itself. A sweetspotted knee can even be followed up with a aerial [[Falcon Punch]] in the "[[Sacred Combo]]".
