Zero Suit Samus (SSBB)/Back aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Zero Suit Samus's back aerial.

Overview

Zero Suit Samus performs a backwards kick. It has quick startup on at frame 8 and deals high damage and powerful knockback even from its sourspots, allowing it to setup edgeguards and making it one of her best KO moves. It also has an easy to connect sweetspot, possesses large hitboxes that cover most of her body, and can be KO confirmed into from her down smash. Additionally, its ending lag is low enough that it can be used twice in a short hop, making it a decent baiting option, and its low landing lag makes it safe on shield when spaced properly. Overall, an excellent move, and easily one of Zero Suit Samus's best aerials.
