A '''projectile''' is an attack or object that operates independently of the character that used it. They are typically used to create pressure on an opponent. This may be shield pressure or pressure to give up stage control. Common examples of projectiles include the [[Charge Shot]], [[Blaster]] shots, and thrown [[item]]s. Almost all projectiles can be [[reflect]]ed, while others can also be [[absorb]]ed. | A '''projectile''' is an attack or object that operates independently of the character that used it.

It is considered a disadvantage to lack a projectile, as they can be very useful in both [[approach]]ing and [[camp]]ing out opponents' approaches. Projectiles also cause the target to take [[hitlag]] while the user does not, which allows a few free frames of action. | ||
As projectiles are (in general) considered [[Specials: Indirect|indirect attacks]], the vast majority of enemies in the [[Subspace Emissary]] resist them outside of any weak points they may have — in fact, only [[Porky]], [[Meta Ridley]], and [[Tabuu]] do not. Projectiles are also generally [[special move]]s executed with the [[B]] button, but since ''[[Brawl]]'', some characters, such as {{SSBB|Snake}}, {{SSBB|Olimar}}, the {{SSB4|Villager}}, and {{SSB4|Mega Man}}, have [[standard attack]]s that are projectiles. | As projectiles are (in general) considered [[Specials: Indirect|indirect attacks]], the vast majority of enemies in the [[Subspace Emissary]] resist them outside of any weak points they may have — in fact, only [[Porky]], [[Meta Ridley]], and [[Tabuu]] do not.
