Captain Falcon (SSBU)/Up aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Captain Falcon's up aerial.

Overview

Captain Falcon performs an aerial back flip, delivering a kick above him. The move is decent at combos, especially out of his down throw or Raptor Boost. The move can combo into the Knee Smash at mid-percentages and is an excellent anti-air and juggling tool. The late hitbox is a semi-spike often referred to as the Tipman, and is great for edgeguarding because of its angle. The Tipman is also able to be followed up by a back aerial, which can start a wall of pain because of Captain Falcon's air speed.
