A difficult to perform variation of the Ken Combo called the '''Reverse Ken Combo''' can also be performed in ''Melee''. It involves hitting with the forward aerial's rear hitbox, that produces weak knockback while keeping the opponent in place, then following up with the down aerial. One or two forward aerials can be performed.

In ''[[Brawl]]'', the Ken Combo can be executed by other characters such as {{SSBB|Wolf}}, {{SSBB|R.O.B.}}, and {{SSBB|Olimar}}, although it should be noted that it is not a true '[[combo]]'; lack of [[hitstun]] allows the victim to simply [[air dodge]] away or even hit back. The meteor smash can also be meteor cancelled as there are no spikes in ''Brawl'', making it less effective at KOing (though this was also the case in the [[PAL]] version of ''Melee'', due to Marth's down aerial being a [[meteor smash]] in that version).

However, some mods for ''Brawl'', such as [[Brawl-]] and [[Project M]], universally increase hitstun, allowing characters in those games with suitable movesets to perform variations of the Ken Combo.
