A '''down tilt''' (abbreviated "d-tilt"), officially called a '''strong down''' ({{ja|下強攻撃|Shita kyō kōgeki}}, ''Down/lower/under strong attack'') before ''Ultimate'', is a [[tilt]] performed by any [[character]] by holding the [[control stick]] lightly down and pressing the [[attack]] button while on the ground, or [[crouching]] ahead of time and pressing the [[attack]] button. It can also be performed by pressing Z while crouching. | A '''down tilt''' (abbreviated "d-tilt"), officially called a '''strong down''' ({{ja|下強攻撃|Shita kyō kōgeki}}, ''Down/lower/under strong attack'') before ''Ultimate'', is a [[tilt]] performed by any [[character]] by holding the [[control stick]] lightly down and pressing the [[attack]] button while on the ground, or [[crouching]] ahead of time and pressing the [[attack]] button.

Down tilts tend to be very quick grounded moves with good range, making them useful for spacing and "poking" from a distance | Down tilts tend to be very quick grounded moves with good range, making them useful for spacing and "poking" from a distance. Some down tilts are also combo or followup initiators, while others are capable [[edgeguarding]] moves due to their [[semi-spike]] angle. They are also good at [[shield stabbing]] and dodging some attacks due to the low profile of the character. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', some down tilts are capable of [[meteor smash]]ing opponents, while from ''Brawl'' onwards, many have a random chance to make opponents [[trip]]. | ||

*[[Luigi]]'s down tilt has been one of his least useful moves in the majority of the series. Although it was decent in ''Smash 64'' due to its fast startup and ability to combo into [[Super Jump Punch]], the move is nearly useless in ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''Smash 4'' as its ending lag is too high for it to have any utility. | *[[Luigi]]'s down tilt has been one of his least useful moves in the majority of the series.

** However, the move was significantly buffed in ''Ultimate''. Although it no longer has a bonus trip chance, its ending lag was drastically reduced and it deals less knockback. This has made it highly spammable and one of his most useful ground moves, as it is now a very reliable combo tool and is great for pressuring and poking the opponent's shield due to being extremely safe on shield. The move is also an excellent ledgetrapping tool as it can easily 2-frame opponents hanging at the ledge and pressure their ledge options. | ** However, the move was significantly buffed in ''Ultimate''.

*[[R.O.B.]]'s down tilt is considered a highly effective move due to its very low startup and ending lag, low knockback and it being able to trip opponents, allowing for multiple combos and setups. The move is very similar in all three games R.O.B. has appeared in, but it is at its most effective in ''Ultimate'', due to the move working best under the game's universal mechanics compared to the previous two games. | *[[R.O.B.]]'s down tilt is considered a highly effective move due to its very low startup and ending lag, low knockback and it being able to trip opponents, allowing for multiple combos and setups.

*[[Steve]]'s down tilt is the only one to be a projectile. The flame will travel downwards when used over an edge, allowing Steve to edgeguard opponents without leaving the stage. | *[[Steve]]'s down tilt is the only one to be a projectile.
