*{{nerf|Jigglypuff's low gravity no longer applies when Jigglypuff is aerial [[grab release]]d causing Jigglypuff to cover much less height from an aerial grab release. This makes Jigglypuff much more susceptible to aerial grab release followups and while this is offset by the decreased ending lag of its aerial grab release (FAF 50 → 40), it benefits Jigglypuff less than any other character as Jigglypuff's air release animation was already slightly shorter than the rest of the cast and Jigglypuff's [[air dodge]] was not sped up. As a result, Jigglypuff is now the most susceptible character to aerial grab release follow-ups.}} | *{{nerf|Jigglypuff's low gravity no longer applies when Jigglypuff is aerial [[grab release]]d causing Jigglypuff to cover much less height from an aerial grab release.

*{{nerf|All aerials have shorter initial [[auto-cancel]] windows (frames 1-5 (neutral)/1-7 (forward/back/up) → 1-3 (neutral/forward/back/up), frames 1-4), no longer lasting the entire aerial before the hitboxes come out.}} | |||

**{{nerf|Neutral aerial | **{{buff|The late hit has increased base knockback (10 → 50), making it much safer on hit and allowing it to [[gimp]] more effectively.}} | ||
***{{nerf|However, this has removed its ability to lock, removing another one of Jigglypuff's most reliable locking tools.}} | |||
**{{change|The late hit now uses one extended hitbox rather than two normal hitboxes.}} | |||
***{{buff|This increases its range below Jigglypuff.}} | |||
***{{nerf|However, this also decreases its range above Jigglypuff.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Neutral aerial auto-cancels later (frame 30 → 40), no longer doing so immediately after its hitboxes cease, significantly hindering its followup potential when combined with the late hit's higher base knockback.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The clean hit has a shorter duration (frames 6-8 → 6-7).}} | |||

**{{change|Late forward aerial has increased base knockback (12 → 30) improving its safety and edgeguarding potential but hindering its followup and locking potential.}} | ***{{buff|However, this also improves its followup potential.}} | ||
**{{change|Late forward aerial has increased base knockback (12 → 30), improving its safety and edgeguarding potential but hindering its followup and locking potential.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The far hit is positioned closer to Jigglypuff (z offset: 10 → 9/8), reducing its range.}} | |||

**{{nerf|Back aerial has | **{{change|Back aerial has a higher [[hitlag]] multiplier (1× → 1.2×). This makes it benefit from the introduction of [[frame cancelling]] more, but also makes it easier to [[DI]].}} | ||
**{{nerf|Back aerial | **{{change|As with most back aerials, back aerial now always launches opponents behind Jigglypuff.}} | ||
**{{ | **{{nerf|Back aerial has more startup lag with a shorter duration (frames 8-11 → 12-13).}} | ||
**{{nerf|Back aerial has more ending (FAF 33 → 40) and a longer animation (39 frames → 54), increasing the amount of time Jigglypuff cannot grab ledges after performing the move.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Back aerial has more landing lag (15 frames → 18).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Back aerial auto-cancels later (frame 23 → 28).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Back aerial launches opponents at a higher angle (361° → 46°), which removes its ability to lock and hinders its KO potential.}} | |||
**{{nerf|Back aerial's near hitbox has been removed.}} | |||
***{{nerf|Altogether, these changes significantly hinder back aerial's spacing and [[Wall of Pain]] potential.}} | |||

**{{nerf|Up aerial has | **{{buff|Up aerial has a new animation where Jigglypuff extends its arm, with its hitboxes being moved upwards to compensate (x offset: 4/1/-2 → 7/4/1). This increases its vertical range.}} | ||
***{{nerf|However, this also reduces its range below Jigglypuff and this new animation is longer (39 frames → 49).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Up aerial has more startup (frame 8 → 9) and ending lag (FAF 37 → 45).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Up aerial's near hitboxes are smaller (4u/4u → 3u/3u).}} | |||
*[[Down aerial]]: | *[[Down aerial]]: | ||
**{{buff|Down aerial | **{{buff|Down aerial's angles (270° (grounded)/30° (aerial) → 145°/280° (both)), and knockback (20/10 (base), 0 (set), 100 (scaling) → 10/0/100 (lower hitbox), 0/30/100 (upper hitbox)) have been altered, making it connect much more reliably, especially against aerial opponents.}} | ||
**{{ | ***{{nerf|However, these new angles prevent it from [[trip]]ping grounded opponents, as well as gaining the ability to lock, hindering its ability to lead into [[Rest]].}} | ||
**{{ | **{{buff|The loop hits have a lower [[SDI multiplier]] (1.2× → 0.8×). Coupled with the weakening of [[SDI]], this makes down aerial much more difficult to escape from.}} | ||
**{{buff|Down aerial now has an additional, ninth hit that launches opponents horinzontally (270° (grounded)/30° (aerial) → 45° (both)) and deals higher knockback (20/10 (base)/100 (scaling) → 30/150), improving its edgeguarding and KO potential.}} | |||
***{{buff|This new final hit also decreases the move's ending lag as its total duration was not fully compensated.}} | |||
***{{nerf|However much like with the first eight hits, this also hinders its followup potential against grounded opponents.}} | |||
**{{change|The final hit has a much higher hitlag multiplier (0.8× → 2.2×).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down aerial has more start-up lag (frame 5 → 7).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down aerial has a longer total duration (FAF 50 → 53) as well as a longer animation (49 frames → 54).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down aerial auto-cancels later (frame 38 → 45), no longer doing so in a short hop.}} | |||
**{{nerf|The loop hits deal less damage (2% → 1.5%), reducing the move's maximum damage output (16% → 14%).}} | |||
**{{nerf|Down aerial has smaller hitboxes (6u/5.3u → 3.4u (extended)/2.8u (loop hits), 5u/3u (final)).}} | |||
