The '''jab cancel''' or '''jab fake''' is a [[technique]] available in all three ''Smash'' games. It is considered a far more potent strategy in ''[[Brawl]]'' than in the other two, and is used to perform quick combos at close ranges. | The '''jab cancel''' or '''jab fake''' is a [[technique]] available in all three ''Smash'' games.

The jab cancel can be performed by any [[character]] with a multiple-attack [[neutral attack]] jab combo. At any point in the combo, before reaching the "final" hit, [[shield]] or [[crouch]] can be tapped to cancel the combo and allow the character to perform other attack moves without continuing the combo. Only crouch works in ''Melee'', due to the longer time it takes a shield to drop. | The jab cancel can be performed by any [[character]] with a multiple-attack [[neutral attack]] jab combo.
