===363°===
The 363° angle is the rarest autolink angle in all three games that feature them. In ''Brawl'', it is only used for the hitbox enemies in [[The Subspace Emissary]] produce upon [[careening]], in order to prevent a chain reaction of said effect when knocking enemies into each other. In ''Smash 4'', it is used for the dashing portion of {{SSB4|Lucario}}'s [[Extreme Speed Attack]] custom, as well as the [[windbox]] produced by the [[Back Shield]] when it is hit, and has the effect of launching the opponent in the direction the attacker is moving into, albeit without launch speed modifications. For the former move, this allows Lucario to connect the second hit afterwards regardless of the direction chosen for the first hit, while for the the latter, it ensures characters do not end up too close behind another with a Back Shield equipped. However, in the case of Extreme Speed Attack, the angle still does not account for the move's increase in distance as Lucario's [[Aura]] grows, thus making it difficult to link both hits at high percents. ''Ultimate'' is the only game where the angle is used in characters' base movesets, being present in {{SSBU|Duck Hunt}}'s up aerial, {{SSBU|Lucas}}' down aerial and [[PK Thunder 2]], [[Drill Rush]], and [[Skyward Slash Dash]].
The 363° angle is the rarest autolink angle in all three games that feature them. Attacks that use this angle launch the opponent in the direction the attacker is moving into, albeit without launch speed modifications. This helps multi-hit moves with significant drift ensure that the opponent will be in the correct position and not simply fall out of the move because the character drifted too far away.
