King Dedede (SSBB)/Down tilt

Overview

King Dedede puts out his foot to act as a poke. Down tilt is one of King Dedede's fastest moves and has a 40% trip chance, applicable from around 0-18%. Its long lasting hitbox, excellent range for its appearance, and acceptable endlag makes this a somewhat reliable way to get a grab to start a chain grab. After a trip, it's also valid to go for dash attack if the opponent rolls out. It also has surprisingly high KO potential, doing so at around 135% at the ledge, which can be easily facilitated through down throw.
