Farore's Wind (ファロレの風, Farore's Wind) is Zelda's up special move.
Overview
A yellow ribbon of magic spins around Zelda, damaging nearby opponents and causing her to disappear. She then reappears in the direction held on the control stick (or directly above her original location if the control stick is not moved). After reappearing, Zelda becomes helpless.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Zelda teleports a slightly shorter distance than she did in Melee, but also creates a small explosion (similar to the one made by the initial part of Sheik's Vanish) upon reappearing, dealing some damage and knockback. Farore's Wind is hard to sweet-spot the ledge with.
In Super Smash Bros. 4, the explosion when Zelda reappears is much more powerful. The first hit also sends the target vertically into the second hit, a technique nicknamed "the Elevator", which is able to KO at medium percentages depending on the character (about 70% on average) if sweetspotted. The move has changed a little aesthetically, with the ribbon appearing less realistic.
Customization
Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:
1. Farore's Wind | 2. Farore's Squall | 3. Farore's Windfall |
---|---|---|
"Teleport in any direction. Deals damage when disappearing and reappearing." | "Teleporting doesn't deal damage, but a gust of wind will push foes away." | "Will only teleport upward, but foes hit when reappearing are meteor smashed." |
- Farore's Wind: Default.
- Farore's Squall: Is slower to teleport, does no damage but has more range, pushes enemies away at the beginning and end, and carries them along with Zelda. It has frame 1 wind box, allowing Zelda to DI and buffer Farore's Squall correctly to escape almost any multi-hit attacks and combos.
- Farore's Windfall: Can only teleport straight up, but deals meteor damage on reappearance. Due to the reappearing hitbox's new properties, it is far weaker overall, now KOing starting around 420%, where Farore's Wind could KO under 60%. Heavily inferior to Wind/Squall with almost no benefits aside from speed.
Origin
The original Farore's Wind is a spell from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Link can use it to mark a place in a Dungeon and then return to that warp point at a later time. It is the spell which is representative of Farore, the Goddess of Courage.
