==Overview==
Ganondorf does a roundhouse kick. It has the same frame data as Captain Falcon's forward tilt, but it is much stronger and has longer [[range]]. This and the short animation length it has make it arguably the best forward tilt in ''Melee'' other than [[Sheik (SSBM)/Forward tilt|Sheik's]] because it has a very good risk-reward ratio for a forward tilt.

If used as a standard poke in the [[neutral]], the move is one of the longest-ranged forward tilts in the game and if spaced correctly it will connect with the foot [[sweetspot]]. From a distance, it can be used to predict a run-in from the opponent, and if the move doesn't connect, the low amount of [[endlag]] makes it very safe on whiff. For that reason, Ganondorf players often use this move from far away, as there's no big downside to using it. If it connects with the sweetspot, it has about as much kill power as his weaker aerials and is Ganondorf's best grounded kill move, providing a blend of strength and usability. It can also be used out of his throws when there isn't enough time to jump and then use an aerial.

Like every other forward tilt of its kind, it can be angled up or down. The up-angled version is Ganondorf's fastest and safest anti-air, and the down-angled version can hit characters crouching and also recoveries aimed at the ledge, often with lethal consequences if it hits, and missing the move will still sometimes let the Ganondorf player safely roll away from the ledge.

Overall, Ganondorf's forward tilt is a dependable and potentially very rewarding poke in neutral, as well as one more of his arsenal of great moves in advantage.
