A '''meteor smash''' ({{ja|メテオスマッシュ|Meteo sumasshu}}; named as "Intercept" on the how to play video in ''Melee'') is a type of attack in the {{uv|Super Smash Bros.}} series that strikes opponents downwards, as opposed to horizontally or upwards like most attacks. Meteor Smashes are primarily designed to [[KO]] or [[gimp]] [[recover]]ing opponents at especially low damage. With their potential to take a stock earlier than usual, most conventional meteor smashes are somewhat slow to execute or require [[sweetspot]]ting.
