==Overview==
==Overview==
When this move is used, the Mii Swordfighter spins in place then slashes, sending a swirling gale forward. The gale speeds up as it moves, and hits enemies multiple times as it passes through them<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNMf_RZiHGo Gale Strike video #1]</ref>. If the gale slides off an edge, it will fall slightly before continuing forward in a straight line<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=no-QoOQOLZs#t=327 Gale Strike Video #2]</ref>. The move is aesthetically similar to [[Link]]'s [[Gale Boomerang]], but behaves more like the [[Ore Club]]'s tornadoes. The attack is also capable of destroying some objects, such as [[Diddy Kong]]'s bananas. If an opponent touches the tornado during its final frames of animation, they will not take any damage and simply be lifted up (or pushed backwards) by it, boosting their recovery. If the Swordfighter uses Gale Strike in midair, they will gain a bit of upwards momentum.

In ''Ultimate'', the move travels a shorter distance overall, only hits once instead of multiple times, and has lost its pushing ability. To compensate, it deals much more damage, launches much faster, and has been repurposed into an extremely effective combo starter, dealing [[set knockback]] (albeit not weight-independent) and keeping enemies in a [[reeling]] animation for a long duration. This allows it to combo into aerials or [[Hero's Spin]] at any percent. Additionally, the move now has [[transcendent priority]], meaning that it cannot cancel out other projectiles but also cannot be canceled out by any attacks.
