When Little Mac uses Slip Counter, he will move his body backwards and cover his face with his hands in a defensive pose. The move will do nothing if Little Mac is not attacked, but if an opponent attacks him, Little Mac acts like he was hit before retaliating with a punch to catch the opponent off guard, while a representation of a heartbeat appears above him. Little Mac is [[intangibility|invincible]] during the attacking frames when the move is used on the ground, but not when used in the air.

During the counterattack, Little Mac takes a big step forward both if on the ground or in the air, which can be life-saving due to Little Mac's sub-par recoveries; countering an opponent's attempted [[gimp]] is therefore a risky yet beneficial tactic to extend Little Mac's recovery potential. However, this can be detrimental if the opponent attacks him in the opposite direction away from the stage, as Little Mac will rocket even further away from the stage, unable to recover.
