This article or section may require competitive expertise. You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

Overview

Hero fiercely stabs upward with his sword, dealing 16% with the blade and 14% on his arm, the arm hitbox only hitting aerial opponents. Like his other smash attacks, it has a 1/8 chance to be a critical hit, however, unlike the others, the base knockback isn't lowered, making a critical hit very effective at KO'ing at extremely low percent. When paired with Psyche Up, the sweetspot will break a full-health shield uncharged.
