Palutena (SSB4)/Down aerial

Overview

An arcing kick below herself. This is the fourth fastest meteor smash in the game, tied with Luigi's and Cloud's down aerials. Its quick startup also makes it a good out of shield option. However, it lasts for only one frame, has disproportionately high landing lag and starts autocancelling incredibly late. Along with the down aerials of Marth and Lucina, it is also the laggiest aerial in the entire game, having 49 frames of ending lag.

As a result of its unprecedentedly low post-hitbox speed, its sees no usage in competitive play outside of edgeguarding.
