Overview

This article or section may require competitive expertise. You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

A roundhouse kick that can be angled. The move has a sweetspot on Captain Falcon's foot and a slightly weaker sourspot on his leg. It is one of his best neutral options; it is a bit slower than neutral attack, but has more range over it, and can start tech chase situations at mid percents. Angling the move increases its damage, and angling down allows it to hit short characters effectively, which Captain Falcon struggles with. Deals 10% when sweetspotted and angled.
