Spins with a sword attack that rises upward if used in the air.
—Description from Ultimate's Move List

Hero's Spin (英雄のスピン, Hero's Spin) is one of three custom up special moves for the Mii Swordfighter.

Overview

When used, the Swordfighter spins and slashes their sword around themselves; if in the air, they also climb upwards, but remain stationary otherwise. This move is functionally identical to Link's Spin Attack, and even boasts a title that sounds like it came out of a Zelda game.

In Ultimate, the attack's damage and knockback have been buffed, allowing it to KO as early as 75%. In addition, its particle effects are identical to those of Link's Spin Attack, albeit with a purplish tint.

Customization

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:

1. Stone Scabbard 2. Skyward Slash Dash 3. Hero's Spin
 
"A high jump followed by a firm downward strike with your sword." "A flurry of slashes that sends you in the direction of your choice." "A spinning sword attack that sends you upward if used in the air."
