Samus (SSBU)/Down special

Samus down special hitbox visualizations.
Detection	Explosion

Update History

2.0.0

• Bomb has less endlag when used on the ground.

3.0.0

• Samus no longer launches herself off screen when grab and Bomb occur at the same time.
  • However, the phantom knockback would still occur at the exact frame of the hitbox and the explosion.

The explosion's mid hit reduces the hitbox's radius to 4.9, then the late hit reduces it to 2.5.

Timing

If the detection hitbox connects, the bomb immediately explodes on the next frame, causing the explosion hitbox to come out earlier. A Bomb jump (if the Bomb hits Samus) has the same duration as the aerial version of the move. Additionally, the grounded version can be canceled by crouching from frame 45 onward, slightly earlier than its interruptibility frames.
