Captain Falcon (SSB)/Up smash

Overview

Hitboxes of Captain Falcon's up smash

Captain Falcon does an uppercut, dealing 17% damage. Despite having low knockback (being the weakest up smash in Smash 64), it is one of Captain Falcon's best moves, being his primary combo starter outside of his grab and aerials, and one of his best options on the ground. It knocks the opponent straight up, and has rather high hitstun, increasing its combo ability. The move can chain into itself up to three times (depending on the weight of the opponent), and can lead into a grab or up aerial. It has unusually short range for an up smash however, with the hitbox being Captain Falcon's body and a small area above his raised fist.
