'''Grab releasing''' is a technique similar to [[chain grab]]bing, except the user releases the victim rather than throwing them. There are two sorts of grab releases: ground releases and air releases. Ground releasing is an opponent sliding a short distance from the grabber. Air releasing is an opponent is being sent in the air after being released from a grab, and varying on the character, is able to take control at varying times. Grab releases are mostly abused in ''[[Brawl]]'' since the amount of time before a released character can act is usually too late for a follow-up attack to be prevented. In ''Brawl'', characters can escape via ground release or air release (In ''Melee'', the player can move left or right while being air released), depending on which they experience more time to escape. Some characters can force a ground release on their opponent based on the speed of their [[pummel]]. Characters can also force an air release smaller characters, due to their size, are unable to force jump breaks to large characters or some small characters even other small characters as they grab too close the ground while large sized characters can usually force a jump break to smaller characters since. For example, only [[Snake (SSBB)|Snake]] and [[Yoshi (SSBB)|Yoshi]] can force [[Donkey Kong (SSBB)|Donkey Kong]] to jump break as he is large enough to have his feet on the ground unless he is in the edge of a stage. | '''Grab releasing''' is a technique similar to [[chain grab]]bing, except the user releases the victim rather than throwing them.

In ''Brawl'', if a character escapes via a ground release, they experience 30 frames of lag and land close-by on the ground (excluding Donkey Kong, Ness, and Lucas). If it is an air release, the user experiences 30 frames of lag and the victim suffers 50 frames of lag (does not apply to [[Jigglypuff (SSBB)|Jigglypuff]]). In ''Melee'', every character has the same amount of frames of grab release lag, ground release lag, and air release lag (excluding Bowser's grab release lag, which is 10 frames shorter than the other characters and Donkey Kong's ground release lag, which is 9 frames shorter than the other characters). | In ''Brawl'', if a character escapes via a ground release, they experience 30 frames of lag and land close-by on the ground (excluding Donkey Kong, Ness, and Lucas).

Grab release combos come into existence when a character has either a very short distanced air release such as in ''Brawl'', Wario, who is released vertically up, and [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]], who has extremely low [[air speed|aerial movement]], or experiences additional lag from a ground release, such as Ness and Lucas. Others, like [[Fox (SSBB)|Fox]] and [[Falco (SSBB)|Falco]], cannot do anything when released until they reach the ground, making them suffer less frames. In ''Melee'', [[Bowser (SSBM)|Bowser]] has just enough frames to regrab the opponent after a ground release. | Grab release combos come into existence when a character has either a very short distanced air release such as in ''Brawl'', Wario, who is released vertically up, and [[Meta Knight (SSBB)|Meta Knight]], who has extremely low [[air speed|aerial movement]], or experiences additional lag from a ground release, such as {{SSBB|Ness}} and {{SSBB|Lucas}}.
