Kirby does a spinning split kick on the ground, covering both sides of him, doing 18% damage and pretty high horizontal knockback. It can be used to [[punish]] and [[edgeguard]] or [[gimp]] an opponent's [[recovery]], though Kirby almost always has better options, with a {{mvsub|Kirby|SSB|forward smash}} being a much better horizontal KO option, and his aerials and {{mvsub|Kirby|SSB|down tilt}} being a better way to edgeguard from the [[edge]]. Additionally, it has some [[ending lag]], meaning that if [[shield]]ed, Kirby will be left rather vulnerable, especially to [[shield grab]]s.
Kirby spins around while having both feet flat on the ground with some duration, doing 18% damage and some high horizontal knockback. The dsmash covers both Kirby's front and back at the same time. Can be used to punish, edge-guard, or gimp. It does however have some ending lag, so an opponent can shield and then punish or shield grab Kirby.
