'''Frozen''' is a status condition in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series that is inflicted by attacks with the [[freezing]] effect. It debuted in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and has appeared in every subsequent game. Frozen fighters as encased in ice. | '''Frozen''' is a status condition in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series that is inflicted by attacks with the [[freezing]] effect.

A frozen fighter is unable to take any actions until the status wears off. Frozen characters cannot be affected by other status effects (such as being [[asleep]], [[buried]], or [[stun]]ned), take quartered knockback, and cannot be [[grab]]bed. The ice also halves the damage of all incoming attacks while altering the shape of the character's [[hurtbox]]. Frozen characters sink in [[Swimming|water]]. | A frozen fighter is unable to take any actions until the status wears off.

The amount of time a character remains frozen is dependent on how much knockback the freezing attack did; if the knockback is too weak, the character will not be frozen at all, making it difficult to freeze [[giant]] or [[metal]] opponents. The frozen duration can be decreased by [[button mashing]]. | The amount of time a character remains frozen is dependent on how much knockback the freezing attack did; if the knockback is too weak, the character will not be frozen at all, making it difficult to freeze [[giant]] or [[metal]] opponents. The frozen duration can be decreased by [[button mashing]]. If a frozen character is hit by a [[flame]] attack, they are immediately thawed and take minimal knockback. | ||
Freezing attacks typically send a character upwards, while also seeming to drastically decrease their [[falling speed|vertical endurance]], making it difficult to push a frozen character off an edge, so most freeze-based [[KO]]s occur off the top [[blast line]]. This is solely due to the angle of the attack and is not a property of the freezing effect or the frozen condition. | Freezing attacks typically send a character upwards, while also seeming to drastically decrease their [[falling speed|vertical endurance]], making it difficult to push a frozen character off an edge, so most freeze-based [[KO]]s occur off the top [[blast line]].

In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', if a frozen character is [[Screen KO]]'d or [[Star KO]]'d, they remain in their ice block for the duration of the KO; in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' opponents will thaw immediately before crossing the upper [[blast line]]. In ''Brawl'', despite remaining frozen, the sound of ice shattering can be heard when a frozen character is Star KO'd. | In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', if a frozen character is [[Screen KO]]'d or [[Star KO]]'d, they remain in their ice block for the duration of the KO; in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' opponents will thaw immediately before crossing the upper [[blast line]].
