Overview
Falco flips his body and kicks in front of himself while jumping forward. This is similar to Fox's forward smash, but is much stronger, usually KO'ing at around 90-110%. It also has high speed, as well as good range, with the hitbox being out for most of the time while Falco is moving forward. Because of these advantages, it is a great KO option. The move can also be deadly to an opponent on the edge at above 100% damage, and can be used for mindgames, punishing, and to pressure an opponent. The move is often used as a followup to an onstage down aerial, with its long duration and lack of a sour spot allowing it to easily cover tech and getup options, and it is the most useful followup to a short hop laser reset. It is arguably the best forward smash in Melee.
