Captain Falcon (SSBU)/Dash attack

Hitbox visualization showing Captain Falcon's dash attack.

Overview

A shoulder tackle that grants a lot of forward distance. Useful for punishing landings and can occasionally start combos due to its diagonal trajectory and speed, but it is punishable on shield like most dash attacks. It has increased knockback compared to the previous installment, making it a decent kill move. Deals 10% when cleaned and 6% if late.

Update History

8.0.0

• Dash attack has less ending lag (FAF 38 → 35), improving its combo potential. It has a lower shieldstun multiplier (1.875× → 1.5×), which fully compensates for the clean hit's advantage on shield, but not the late hit's, making the latter slightly safer on shield.
