Fox is a character who is all about speed. He has the second fastest dashing speed (second only to {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}), third fastest air speed (behind {{SSB|Yoshi}} and {{SSB|Pikachu}}), the third fastest falling speed, a fast [[roll]], and generally very fast attacks in terms of both [[startup]] and [[ending lag]]. Fox also has a good and useful [[short hop]], which he can easily perform [[Z-cancel]]led aerials out of quickly. Fox can sometimes have trouble KOing because the majority of his attacks have low knockback, excluding his up smash and up aerial, which he sometimes relies on for KO'ing onstage. This problem is bigger against characters with strong vertical endurance, such as {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSB|Link}} and other Foxes. The up smash can easily KO most characters under around 90% (KOs at 76% on {{SSB|Dream Land}}), and can be combo'd into in a variety of ways, such as the using a Z-cancelled down aerial (which can be used during aerial approaches), or the first hit of his jab, then using the move while the opponent is in [[hitstun]]. The up aerial is mainly used as an aerial combo finisher, but can be used on its own as an effective aerial finisher. However, the generally low knockback of Fox's attacks means that he has amazing combo potential, having the ability to [[zero-death]] many other characters. Both Fox's forward and back throws can additionally [[chaingrab]] at very low percentages and combo into moves such as {{mvsub|Fox|SSB|dash attack}}, [[short hop laser]], or [[short hop double laser]]. Additionally, though Fox can have trouble KOing onstage, he does have a strong edgeguarding ability. His forward and back aerials can easily be used in offstage aerial combos or combo'd into from a move such as an up tilt at certain percentages, and his neutral aerial is a pretty powerful aerial when it first comes out. He also has two effective [[semi-spike]]s - down smash (best used near the edge), and his shine (which allows the shine spike technique, and can also be used just after an [[edge]] drop to cover the area around Fox). | Fox is a character who is all about speed.
