*{{SSBU|Wii Fit Trainer}}: Just like ''Smash 4'', her landing neutral air can combo into virtually any other attack, most notably more neutral airs and even [[Header]] for massive damage. Landing such that only the first hit of neutral air connects also combos into a slightly charged up smash, killing the majority of the cast by 50% with Deep Breathing. This kill confirm was made even more potent in Update {{SSBU|8.0.0}} when up smash was given reduced startup, giving the kill confirm more leeway and allowing up smash to be charged longer in some cases. | *{{SSBU|Wii Fit Trainer}}: Just like ''Smash 4'', her landing neutral air can combo into virtually any other attack, most notably more neutral airs and even [[Header]] for massive damage.

*{{SSBU|Young Link}}: Down tilt can combo into forward aerial, which can lead into a short hop [[Fire Arrow]] into up aerial. Along with other combos involving special moves, such as grounded [[Spin Attack]] into back aerial into an aerial [[Spin Attack]], Young link also has kill confirms such as landing the first hit of forward aerial into an up smash. | |||
*{{SSBU|Yoshi}}: Up tilt can combo into neutral and up aerial. At high percents, up tilt to up aerial can be a KO confirm. | *{{SSBU|Yoshi}}: Up tilt can combo into neutral and up aerial. At high percents, up tilt to up aerial can be a KO confirm. | ||
