This article or section may require competitive expertise. You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

Overview

Link swings the Master Sword above his head in a wide arc. A standard anti-air and combo option with average speed and knockback. Will combo into most of Link's aerials against fastfallers, and at least into up aerial against midfallers. It is not as effective at anti-airing opponents directly about Link as up smash, but does not have the same issue of the latter parts of the attack whiffing, and it hits grounded opponents.
