Overview

Fox does the splits, which is presumably quite painful. His fastest smash attack, Down Smash can serve as a good option to quickly take stocks at mid/high percent due to its very low knockback angle than can Semi-spike opponents. Its quick speed and low hitbox makes it a common edgeguarding option to catch people at ledge, although it is reasonably easy to tech. It is sometimes used out of Fox's waveshines at mid-percent near ledge in order to produce an edgeguarding situation.
