'''Crumpling''' is a status condition that debuted in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and reappeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. The only attacks that utilise it are [[Ryu]] and [[Ken]]'s [[Focus Attack]] and [[Ridley]]'s [[Skewer]]. | |||
==Overview== | |||
Any fighter afflicted with the crumpling affect will be stunned momentarily. In the air, the fighter is essentially [[paralyze]]d, but if [[Floor|grounded]], they collapse to the floor in a weakened state. During this time, they are unable to move or act until the animation passes, in which the fighter is automatically returned to their standing position. | |||
Unlike paralysis, the effect has a fixed duration regardless of the attack that causes it, the relative strength of the attack, or the [[damage]] of the target, and cannot be decreased by [[button mashing]]. These factors guarantee the attacker a set amount of time for a follow-up attack, though the victim's animation may shift their [[hitbox]]es in a way that makes them harder to reach. | |||
==Attacks== | |||
In ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', only Ryu and his Focus Attack at half to max [[charge]] can inflict it, but in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', Ryu's [[Clone|Echo Fighter]] Ken was also given Focus Attack. Additionally, the [[Fighter#Newcomers and veterans|newcomer]] Ridley can achieve it if he [[Sweet spot (hitbox)|sweet spot]]s his Skewer. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
* The animation for a grounded crumple is the same as when a character is defeated by a weak attack in [[Stamina Mode]]. | |||
