The '''small step forward smash''' is a technique in all ''Smash'' games that effectively extends the range of a [[forward smash]] by intentionally delaying a few frames between the [[control stick]] tap and the attack button press. As the game allows a specific window of time between the two inputs (3 frames in ''Melee'') in order to differentiate the combination from a [[dash attack]], this causes the character to dash forwards slightly before the forward smash begins, therefore increasing its range based on how far the character moves in their early dashing animation. This can also be used to intentionally decrease the range of a forward smash for small positioning advantages.
