'''Launch rate''', also known as '''Damage %''' in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and '''Damage Ratio''' in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', is a feature in all ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' games that alters how much knockback is given and received (despite its name in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', damage is unaffected). | '''Launch rate''', also known as '''Damage %''' in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and '''Damage Ratio''' in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', is a feature in all ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' games that alters how much knockback is given and received (despite its name in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', damage is unaffected). | ||
All knockback in a match is multiplied by the launch rate value, which by default is 1.0×. This value can be set from as low as 0.5× ([[attack]]s have half knockback) to as high as 2.0× (attacks have double knockback). The minimum launch rate is ideal for [[combos]], while the maximum launch rate is ideal for [[KO]]ing opponents at extremely low [[percentage]]s. However, the latter also affected attacks with [[set knockback]] up until ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', causing multihit attacks to not always combo into each other. | All knockback in a match is multiplied by the launch rate value, which by default is 1.0×.

In competitive play, nonstandard launch rates are difficult to detect during games, which has led to some tournament matches unintentionally having been played at an incorrect launch rate. A notable example of this was a set between {{s|smasher|Armada}} and {{s|smasher|SilentSpectre}} at {{s|tournament|Pound 4}} in 2010 that was played at 0.9×; this remained undiscovered for nine years. The infamous matches between {{s|smasher|komorikiri}} and {{s|smasher|CaptainZack}}, and {{s|smasher|ZeRo}} and {{s|smasher|Dabuz}} at {{s|tournament|GENESIS 4}} are more recent examples. Both matches were being played at a launch rate setting of 0.9×. The latter match gained notoriety, and soon became an inside joke in the community. | In competitive play, nonstandard launch rates are difficult to detect during games, which has led to some tournament matches unintentionally having been played at an incorrect launch rate.

The result of this formula increases vertical launch speed if the target enters tumble. As a result, characters with higher gravity get launched faster than those with lower gravity, depending on how vertical the angle is, resulting in fighters with higher gravity stats having worsened vertical survivability, seemingly as an attempt to normalize the effect of combos and multi-hit moves on characters of differing gravity. This formula is also applied to moves that launch opponents downwards, though since vertical launch speed is negative in this case, the result of the formula effectively decreases it slightly instead, reducing the effectiveness of [[meteor smash]]es on fast fallers. | The result of this formula increases vertical launch speed if the target enters tumble.

In ''Ultimate'', moves that launch at angles between 70° and 110° now instead cause characters' falling speeds to be homogenized to a set value of 1.8. Furthermore, the additional launch speed from the gravity formula is no longer applied. As a result of these changes, falling speed no longer plays as much of a factor on determining a characters' vertical survivability, and moves that deal vertical knockback are generally easier to survive compared to ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'', thus making vertical survivability among the cast much more consistent than in previous games. Note that weight-independent moves do not homogenize falling speeds or use the different gravity value, so gravity and fall speed (especially the latter) still have an impact on the vertical survivability against those moves. | In ''Ultimate'', moves that launch at angles between 70° and 110° now instead cause characters' falling speeds to be homogenized to a set value of 1.8 during hitstun.

To determine how far a character is launched away, the numerical amount of knockback caused is multiplied by 0.03 to calculate '''launch speed''', and the initial value then decays by 0.051 every [[frame]], so that the character eventually loses all momentum from the knockback. During this time, character-specific attributes such as [[air friction]] are disabled; however, [[falling speed]] still takes effect, giving fast fallers better endurance against vertical knockback than others of their weight. | To determine how far a character is launched away, the numerical amount of knockback caused is multiplied by 0.03 to calculate '''launch speed''', and the initial value of launch speed then decays by 0.051 every [[frame]], so that the character eventually loses all momentum from the knockback.

==Deadly Blow== | |||
[[File:DeadlyBlow.jpg|270px|thumb|The vibrant "Deadly Blow" effect will appear if an attack does enough knockback to KO the victim.]] | |||
Deadly Blow is an aesthetic effect in ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate''. Attacks dealing strong enough knockback to KO opponents before they can act afterwards produce a red-and-black lightning effect on contact. This effect tends to appear slightly after the actual damage percentage at which an attack can start KOing. For example, {{SSB4|Jigglypuff}}'s [[Rest]] can KO Mario on the 3DS version's {{SSB4|Final Destination}} with no DI starting at 60%, but the effect doesn't appear until 62%. | |||
This effect works depending on the distance required to KO the character rather than the actual strength of the knockback; for example, a forward or back throw towards a walk-off [[blast line]] will trigger the effect if the throw effectively KOs, even at low damage percentages where it would be otherwise very weak, while strong attacks launching foes from one side of the stage to the other will not display the effect if they don't KO, even if the knockback is strong enough to do so otherwise. Attacks that [[freezing|freeze]] do not produce this effect at any percentage, instead simply causing the screen to flash white. Meteor smashes also do not produce the effect until higher percentages. | |||
The Deadly Blow activating does not necessarily guarantee a KO. The game does not consider stage walls, ceilings, or other obstacles that can otherwise change the trajectory of knockback (thereby preventing or causing a KO) when determining whether the lightning appears. [[Directional Influence|DI]] Is also not taken into account, meaning players can still save themselves after the effect is displayed if the attack can just barely KO them. | |||
In ''Ultimate'', when a move is expected to end the match (that is, when all remaining opponents are on their last stock and hits the last character not already in lethal knockback or a [[Star KO]]), this effect is accompanied by a dramatic slowdown alongside a red background and a unique, much more intense sound effect, with the camera zooming in on the character. This is referred to as '''[[Finish Zoom]]''' by [[Masahiro Sakurai]] and his development team. | |||

'''Set knockback''', also referred to as '''fixed knockback''', is a property of some attacks where the amount of knockback dealt by the attack is always the same regardless of the damage the opponent has received so far, [[stale-move negation]], or how much damage the attack does. Moves with this property can be thought of as those having a knockback scaling factor of 0, though this is actually not the case. Usually, set knockback is used for the first hits of a [[natural combo]] or multi-hit move, while the last hit deals normal knockback (sometimes called "scaling knockback" to contrast), to make it easier for the entire attack to hit regardless of the opponent's damage. While damage is not a factor for set knockback, the character's [[weight]] still is, so the | '''Set knockback''', also referred to as '''fixed knockback''', is a property of some attacks where the amount of knockback dealt by the attack is always the same regardless of the damage the opponent has received so far, [[stale-move negation]], or how much damage the attack does.

Starting in ''Brawl'', the effect of Damage Ratios (Launch Rates) for fixed knockback was drastically reduced, to the point where the in game Damage Ratio setting would have only a small effect on their knockback. Additionally, Shulk's Smash [[Monado Art]] is ignored entirely in ''Smash 4''. However, other modifiers on knockback, such as rage, crouch cancelling, or smash attack charging bonus are still calculated normally, which in the case of rage can lead to unintended early KO setups in normal gameplay. In ''Ultimate'', the effect of both types of knockback modifiers on set knockback was removed altogether, so set knockback is much harder to modify. | ||

From ''Melee'' onward, there are certain attacks that deal zero knockback, causing damage as usual but not [[flinch]]ing, meaning that the hit character can still perform any actions while being attacked. Most attacks with no knockback can rack up damage quickly, as they can hit foes repeatedly without launching them away from their range | From ''Melee'' onward, there are certain attacks that deal zero knockback, causing damage as usual but not [[flinch]]ing, meaning that the hit character can still perform any actions while being attacked. Most attacks with no knockback can rack up damage quickly, as they can hit foes repeatedly without launching them away from their range. These moves can also be used to "steal" [[KO]]s from opponents in [[free for all]] battles, as while they do not cause knockback, they will take ownership of the KO on an already fatally struck opponent. Fox's [[Blaster]] is the most well known example of an attack with no knockback. Due to the fact that it does not deal knockback, it will not interrupt an opponent's moves or force them out of a [[punish]]able state such as being [[asleep]] or being stuck in the ending [[lag]] of a missed [[Rest]]. [[Idle pose|Idle]] characters in ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'' will also turn around if they are repeatedly struck with moves that deal no knockback, which is noticeable with {{SSB4|Fox}}'s Blaster. | ||
In ''Melee'', [[phantom hit]]s damage foes, but without any knockback. It is also possible for any character to receive no knockback from attacks by certain factors, such as by being [[giant]] and [[metal]] simultaneously on a low launch rate battle, and as mentioned above, armor will prevent characters from taking knockback while active. | In ''Melee'', [[phantom hit]]s usually damage foes, but without any knockback.

A few moves not only treat the opponent's weight as 100, but also temporarily set their [[gravity]] to 0.085 and [[falling speed]] to 1.5, making their knockback even less character-dependant. However, since the gravity and falling speed alterations are temporary, the knockback is still heavily affected by them, and so the vertical KO power of such moves is heavily skewed towards fast-falling characters surviving much longer than heavy ones. | A few moves not only treat the opponent's weight as 100, but also temporarily set their [[gravity]] to 0.085 and [[falling speed]] to 1.5, making their knockback even less character-dependant.

In ''Ultimate'', weight independence is now programmable from a standard flag within hitbox scripts, and as such its effect has been homogenised. If active, all fighters are treated as having a weight of 100 when calculating the attack's knockback, and a fall speed of 1.5 and gravity of 0.087 for the first 10 frames of the launch, before reverting back to a fighter's regular fall speed and gravity. Notably, this effect overrides the homogenised fall speed and gravity used by attacks which have an angle between 70˚ and 110˚. | In ''Ultimate'', weight independence is now programmable from a standard flag within hitbox scripts, and as such its effect has been homogenised.

From ''Brawl'' onward, knockback stacking behaves much differently, and its effects have been generally minimized. It now only occurs if both hits come from different sources, and if the second hit's resulting launch speed is lower than 0.8× of the first hit's launch speed at the time the second hit connects. Additionally, the first hit's launch speed and hitstun are retained throughout, instead of being merged and using the second hit's (respectively), and the resulting angle cannot be DIed<!--confirmed for Smash 4 and Ultimate; not sure about Brawl-->. Furthermore, if the first hit's launch speed at the time the second hit connects is 2.65× of the second hit's or higher, the second hit's knockback is ignored, though it still applies [[hitlag]]. In any other case, the second hit fully overrides the first. | From ''Brawl'' onward, knockback stacking behaves much differently, and its effects have been generally minimized.

**Because of this vertical knockback cap in ''Smash 4'', if a fighter were to have an incredibly high fall speed and gravity, it would be impossible to KO them off the upper blast line (unless using an item such as a [[Beetle]]), no matter how much knockback they were given. This can be accomplished under specific conditions in the unmodified game, via the use of customs and special smash. In ''Ultimate'', this is only possible by meteor smashing opponents off the ground, as fall speeds are set to 1.8 during hitstun for launch angles between 70° and 110°. | **Because of this vertical knockback cap in ''Smash 4'', if a fighter were to have an incredibly high fall speed and gravity, it would be impossible to KO them off the upper blast line (unless using an item such as a [[Beetle]]), no matter how much knockback they were given.

*According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the knockback speed up effect seen in ''Ultimate'' was planned to be implemented in previous ''Smash'' games, but ended up being scrapped because it was easy to lose track of characters' positions, especially in {{for3ds}}. | *According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the knockback speed up effect seen in ''Ultimate'' was planned to be implemented in previous ''Smash'' games, but ended up being scrapped because it was easy to lose track of characters' positions, especially in {{for3ds}}. | ||
*Through hacking, the value of damage dealt in the knockback formula can be a negative number, in which case the game will run the calculation as normal, and as such knockback will decrease with percent if the damage is less than -2. Furthermore, a negative knockback value can be calculated, although this will simply result in zero knockback being dealt. | |||
