This is Little Mac's only means of vertical recovery, but it is very poor at doing so in comparison to other up special moves due to its numerous flaws. The aerial version lacks horizontal momentum and gives vertical distance that travels as low as an average jump, giving it some of the worst distance of any recovery move in the series. Additionally, although its hitboxes are rather disjointed, the move does not [[edge sweet spot]] until the very end and has a small auto-sweetspot. As a result, recovering too high will result in Mac being knocked off by any sufficiently long hitbox, while recovering too low will often result in Mac missing the ledge entirely. | This is Little Mac's only means of vertical recovery, but it is very poor at doing so in comparison to other up special moves due to its numerous flaws.
