Isabelle (SSBU)/Up aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Isabelle's up aerial.

Overview

Isabelle's Up air is largely generic one, outputting mediocre damage. Where it stands out is its lingering hit box, which when combined with her slow fall speed, can allow for very strong aerial pressure on some characters. In comparison to Villager's version, is it much more consistent due to always pulling out two turnips instead of one to three. Some possible followups are from Up-tilt, Lloid trap if the opponent is nearby, and occasionally Down throw.

Up aerial provides a good tool for juggling some characters, as well as the primary use case of Isabelle's net grab Up throw. The sour spot of the move still provides a fair amount of stun, allowing for juggling scenarios to sometimes continue even if the hit is not sweet spotted. Along with her slow fall speed, plus Up aerial's disjoint and long lasting hit box, can make it very difficult for the opponent to safely land. This makes the move one of her greatest assets, depending on the matchup.
