-Meta Knight slashes above himself in an arc. Though not as fast as it was in ''Brawl,'' it is still quick enough to confirm into itself until mid-percentages. Also, at low percents, it can chain into any other aerial (except down air), Mach Tornado, and Shuttle Loop. It can be used to shark and pressure shielding opponents from below platforms.
+==Overview==
+Meta Knight slashes above himself in an arc. With quick start-up, low ending lag, weak knockback, and deceptive reach, this move is an essential element of his meta game, as it is a centerpiece of his powerful combo ability. It combos reliably off of his dash attack, up tilt, down throw, and forward throw until mid-percents. From low- to mid-percents, it chains into itself and any other aerial, [[Mach Tornado]], and [[Shuttle Loop]]. Meta Knight's most well-known combo involves chaining his up aerial into itself repeatedly, and finishing off with a high-altitude Shuttle Loop, KOing at roughly 60%. At higher percents, it can still lead into Shuttle Loop for a KO.
+The move's speed gives it good utility against opponents [[shield]]ing on platforms. Two up aerials followed by Mach Tornado will often result in a shield-poke.
