'''Hitstun''' is a period of time after being hit by an attack that a character is unable to act outside of [[directional influence]] or [[tech]]ing. It is directly dependent on [[knockback]], so at a same damage percentage, an attack like [[Falcon Punch]] will have more hitstun than one like [[Thunder Jolt]]. Each ''Smash'' game has a programmed value that is multiplied by the amount of knockback received to determine the amount of frames a character is locked in hitstun after being hit; for example, ''Melee'' has a hitstun multiplier of 0.4 frames per unit of knockback, so a hit that deals 100 units of knockback will leave the target in hitstun for 40 frames. | '''Hitstun''' is a period of time after being hit by an attack that a character is unable to act outside of [[directional influence]] or [[tech]]ing.
