Ganondorf (SSB4)/Forward aerial

Overview

Ganondorf performs an overhead, downward arcing punch, often called the Skull Crusher. It is Ganondorf's second slowest aerial attack (behind down aerial), coming out on frame 14, but is very powerful, with the sweetspot being able to KO Mario at 104% at the center of Final Destination. And an extremely large hitbox, even reaching behind Ganondorf at the beginning. However, it has very high ending lag, fairly high landing lag, has a sourspot on his arm that deals 1% less damage, and due to a programming error, can not autocancel even if used in a full hop.
