* | *From ''[[Melee]]'' onwards, [[Captain Falcon]]'s forward aerial is the famous [[Knee Smash]], which has very high KO potential if sweetspotted. It is considered more useful in ''Melee'' than in ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'', due to the former game possessing the ability to [[L-cancel]] and more favorable sweetspot placements and timings for the move. | ||

*[[Sheik]]'s forward aerial | *[[Sheik]]'s forward aerial is one of her best moves for spacing and approaching, and overall one of the best aerials in the series, with an extremely early [[autocancel]] window (starting on frame 11) and long range enabling her to land it multiple times on opponents upon hitting them. In ''Melee'', it is a devastating [[semi-spike]] with very high knockback for its speed. Conversely, its incredibly low knockback in ''SSB4'' allows it to freely combo into itself and most of her other moves, including [[Bouncing Fish]]. | ||
*In ''SSB4'', {{SSB4|Ness}}'s forward aerial is known for being able to follow after a [[down throw]] and very easily comboing into itself. | *In ''SSB4'', {{SSB4|Ness}}'s forward aerial is known for being able to follow after a [[down throw]] and very easily comboing into itself. | ||
*[[Donkey Kong]]'s forward aerials launch targets at the Sakurai angle when hit in the earliest frames, but a clean hit will result in a meteor smash. The move also resembles his midair attack from ''Donkey Kong 64''. | *[[Donkey Kong]]'s forward aerials launch targets at the Sakurai angle when hit in the earliest frames, but a clean hit will result in a meteor smash.

*[[Mario]]'s forward aerial | *[[Mario]]'s forward aerial from ''Melee'' onwards meteor smashes opponents if landed with its clean hit, making it useful for edgeguarding and off-stage KOs. In ''SSB4'', its clean hit was buffed with additional damage and knockback, and is easier to land as it lasts longer. Additionally, it has a a 50-50 from [[down throw]], and can be confirmed into from landing [[up aerial]]s. Additionally, Mario's forward aerial has become the subject of the "Forward Aerial" meme thanks to [[Smasher:Alpharad|Alpharad]], who said "[https://youtube.com/watch?v=0f1Z_Cqc1GY| Forward aerial!]" as he landed the clean hit of Mario's forward aerial during one ''SSB4'' video on YouTube dedicated to him. | ||
