Counter (カウンター, Counter) is Palutena's down special move.
Overview
When Palutena uses this move, she uses her shield to catch an opponent's attack. Once an attack connects, the shield will defend Palutena while retaliating back at the attacker. Upon guarding, Palutena's shield emits a blue ring of light and a blue representation of a heartbeat appears behind her, much like other counterattacks in SSB4. It deals 1.3x the damage of countered attacks, 10% minimum. It will One-hit KO anyone, if she managed to counter an attack that deals at least 40% damage.
Origin
Counter is a stat-based power that Pit or a fighter can wield in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Using that power, the user will be under its effect temporarily. During the time the power is active, any attack that lands will be retaliated. This power also prevents knockback.
