| | '''Galaxia Darkness''' is [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight's]] [[Final Smash]]. It was first seen on videos from [[E for All]] before appearing on the [http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/metaknight.html#3rd DOJO!!!]. When used, Meta Knight swings his cape out directly in front of him while shouting "Know my power!" or "Behold....". If he misses with his cape, Meta Knight pauses for a brief time, and the Final Smash fails. When it connects (the trapping hitbox is a bit longer than the edge of the cape), characters trapped by Meta Knight's cape become invincible, but trapped at the spot where they were caught by the hitbox. The screen then darkens to black, and after a few seconds, a large, single slash appears near Meta Knight, as he then slices the trapped opponents with one, powerful strike. When Meta Knight slashes, he either swings upward or performs a standard slash, though this does not affect the attack's strength. |

| '''Galaxia Darkness''' ({{ja|ギャラクシアダークネス|Gyarakushia Dākunesu}}, ''Galaxia Darkness'') is [[Meta Knight]]'s [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.
| | Characters who are trapped by Meta Knight's cape always receive 40% to 42% damage, and high, upwards knockback that can KO above 50%, with [[super armor]] ignored. Any opponents who are not trapped are also attacked, but instead take about half damage and weak, upwards knockback. These after slashes can also damage and even KO allies, regardless of if Friendly Fire is disabled or not. The weaker slash part of Galaxia Darkness can be avoided by dodging with correct timing. |

| Galaxia Darkness was first seen on videos from [[E for All]] before appearing on the [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/metaknight.html#3rd DOJO!!!]. When used, Meta Knight swings his cape out directly in front of him while shouting either "Know my power!" ({{ja|思い知れ|Omoishire}}, ''You shall realize.'') or "Behold..." ({{ja|見るがいい！|Mirugaī!}}, ''Behold!''). If he misses with his cape, Meta Knight pauses for a brief time, and the Final Smash fails. When it connects (the trapping hitbox is a bit longer than the edge of the cape), characters trapped by Meta Knight's cape become invincible, but trapped at the spot where they were caught by the hitbox. The screen then darkens to black, and after a few seconds, a large, single slash appears near Meta Knight, as he then slices the trapped opponents with one, powerful strike. When Meta Knight slashes, he either swings upward or performs a standard slash, though this does not affect the attack's strength.

| Characters who are trapped by Meta Knight's cape always receive 40% damage, and high, upwards knockback that can KO above 50%, with [[super armor]] ignored. Any opponents who are not trapped are also attacked, but instead take about half damage and weak, upwards knockback, with the opponents being hit in player order. Unusually, these slashes can hurt allies as well, even with [[Friendly Fire]] disabled; even more unusually, these slashes disregard super armor, making moves with launch resistance ineffective for defense. The weaker slash part of Galaxia Darkness can be avoided by dodging with correct timing. This is a bit harder when playing online with anyone due to players having different player numbers.

| The move returns in ''SSB4'' with a starry sky graphical effect applied to the inside of Meta Knight's cape. It also no longer affects teammates with Team Attack off.
| | ''Meta Knight's Final Smash. He flips his cape, and the darkness within envelops his foes and plunges the world into shadow. He then unleashes a series of sword strikes that do terrible damage and launch his foes. In the darkness, Meta Knight can also reach and attack distant enemies. One can imagine Meta Knight zipping back and forth at high speed to accomplish this.'' |

| ==Spring lag glitch==
| |
| The '''spring lag glitch''' is a [[glitch]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' which causes a character hit by {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s [[Final Smash]] to get characters frozen on a spring for a short time. As such, this glitch can only be performed on stages that have springs, like [[PictoChat]] and [[custom stage]]s.
| |
| | |
| To execute this glitch, Meta Knight must break a Smash Ball and use Galaxia Darkness to hit the opponent into a spring. The character that was hit should be stuck in the spring until the duration of Meta Knight's Final Smash is over.
| |
| | |
| ==Origin==
| |
| "[[Galaxia]]" is the name of Meta Knight's sword in the anime, ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby: Right Back at Ya!}}'' A legendary sword with immense power, it appears to be a mere hilt when sheathed, with the blade forming after being drawn. The multi-pronged design first appeared in the games with ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}'' (although, it also appeared in [[wikirby:File:KNiDL_Meta_Knight_artwork.jpg|artwork]] of other ''Kirby'' games prior to that), where Meta Knight used it in his appearance as a playable racer. At the time of ''Brawl''{{'}}s release, however, it had never been referred to as "Galaxia" in the games. ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby's Epic Yarn}}'', released after ''Brawl'', is the first game to name the sword "Galaxia". The move itself is named after the sword, while the darkness is created through his [[Dimensional Cape]].
| |
| | |
| The actual attack later makes an appearance in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby: Planet Robobot}}'', as part of Meta Knight's moveset in the {{s|wikirby|Meta Knightmare Returns}} subgame. It visually resembles his Final Smash, only with a horizontal strike as opposed to a diagonal one.

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *The cape has a small hitbox just behind Meta Knight, about the length of his sword. As a result, he can hit opponents behind him when the Final Smash is starting up. | | [[File:Galaxia Darkness.jpg|thumb|right|Kirby, being engulfed in Meta Knight's cape at the beginning of the attack.]] |
| *If Meta Knight captures the partner {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} in Galaxia Darkness, but misses the leader Ice Climber, and the leader Ice Climber gets [[KO]]'ed, the other Ice Climber, despite having [[invincibility frame]]s from returning to the stage, will get hit regardless. | | *<!-- THE SWORD WAS NOT CALLED "MASTER" IN KIRBY AND THE AMAZING MIRROR. THE ABILITY ITSELF WAS NAMED MASTER AFTER HOW META KNIGHT WAS A MASTER SWORDSMAN.-->The title ''[[Galaxia]]'' is the name of Meta Knight's sword in the anime, ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!''. At the time of ''Brawl's'' release, however, it was never referred to as ''Galaxia''. The game ''Kirby's Epic Yarn'', released after ''Brawl'', however, gives the sword the name of ''Galaxia''. |
| **Furthermore, if Meta Knight catches one of the Ice Climbers and not the other, then both Ice Climbers will be hit by the initial pre-slash attack, with the trapped Ice Climber also receiving the main slash as well, dealing a total of 58% damage and guaranteeing knockback stacking.
| | *The cape has a small hitbox just behind Meta Knight, about the length of his sword. As a result, he can hit people behind him when the Final Smash is starting up. |
| *Galaxia Darkness is one of the five [[Final Smashes]] that can affect a team player (''Brawl'' only). [[End of Day]], [[Landmaster]], [[Iceberg]], and [[Puff Up]] share this trait. | | *If Meta Knight captures one of the [[Ice Climbers (SSBB)|Ice Climbers]] in Galaxia Darkness, but misses the leader Ice Climber, and the leader Ice Climber gets [[KO]]'ed, or [[SD]]'s, the other Ice Climber, despite having [[Invincibility frame]]s from returning to the stage, will get hit regardless. |
| *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on a character firing a [[Super Scope]], the character that was firing it will stand in a more progressed [[T-pose|bind position, or holding their arms out in a "T"]], just like with [[moveset swap]]ping, although it is different for some characters (example: Yoshi, R.O.B., Mr. Game & Watch). | | *Galaxia Darkness is one of the four [[Final Smashes]] that can affect a team player. [[End of Day]], [[Landmaster]], and [[Puff Up]] share this trait. |
| *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on {{SSBB|Kirby}} using [[Stone]], then he will be sent into the bind pose for the duration of the Final Smash. This is similar to what will happen if [[Blue Falcon]] or [[Triforce Slash]] was used on Kirby's Stone move. | | *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on a character firing a [[Super Scope]], the character that was firing it will stand in a more progressed blind position, or holding their arms out in a "T", just like with the [[Moveset swap|moveset swap hack]], although it doesn't work for some characters (example: Yoshi, R.O.B., Mr. Game & Watch). |
| *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on {{SSBB|King Dedede}} using [[Jet Hammer]], King Dedede will be in the same pose, but his hammer will lack the jet effect. | | *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]] using [[Stone]], then he will be seen in the T pose for the duration of the Final Smash. This is similar to what will happen if [[Blue Falcon|Captain Falcon's Final Smash]] was used on Kirby's Stone move. |
| *The Trophy description mentions Meta Knight's ability to hit others outside his range, and that "one can imagine Meta Knight zipping back and forth quickly to accomplish this." However, Meta Knight's silhouette can be seen when doing so.
| | *If Meta Knight uses Galaxia Darkness on [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede]] using [[Jet Hammer]], King Dedede will be in the same pose, but his hammer will not have the jet effect. |
