A fully charged Charge Shot is incredibly powerful, dealing 26% and very high horizontal knockback, KOing Mario at 70% on {{SSB|Dream Land}}, making it Samus' strongest KO move. Samus is also capable of comboing into Charge Shot with down aerial being her strongest setup. This naturally makes a fully charged Charge Shot deadly as it is a large and very powerful projectile which can catch opponents landing, edgeguard opponents and end combos for early KOs. It only real downside is that its hitbox is deceptively small, making the Charge Shot easier to avoid than what the projectile suggests.

Charge Shot is also very effective against shields, especially the fully charged version. Samus can land a guaranteed charge shot on shield after a [[Z-cancel]]ed neutral, back or down aerial, with the entire string leading into a forward smash for a [[shield break combo]]. The fully charged version gives Samus an enormous frame advantage on shield (+32 frames at point blank) which easily allows her to pressure her opponents. The move can easily lead into her grab which then allows her to use her incredibly powerful throws. Samus even has a shield break combo from a fully charged Charge Shot with Charge Shot → upward angled forward smash → forward tilt although this is very difficult to perform and it also works against a few characters.

Overall, Charge Shot is a very powerful tool in Samus' kit due to its extreme power and range, in addition to its incredible shield pressuring potential.
