Overview

Performs a jumping punch upwards. It's useful as an attack out of shield (tied with Mr. Game and Watch's up special for fastest up special in the game) as well as a combo finisher. It is commonly used to KO opponents off the top of the stage when near the upper blast line. Additionally, it serves as Mario's primary recovery tool. Although it's overall distance coverage is mere average, thanks to it's speed, fairly large hitboxes and lenient Autolink angle, it can be an effective burst option against a greedy opponent offstage, allowing him to avoid an otherwise fatal edgeguarding setup and get back up safely on stage.
