Overview

Samus performs an axe kick. Fairly slow at frame 15 and laggy for a tilt, but boasts respectable KO power and has its role in ledge trapping due to its large and arcing hitbox that can simultaneously catch jumps and 2-frame quite effectively. Notably, it meteor smashes grounded opponents but sends aerial opponents at the Sakurai angle. This allows it to start combos and KO around 150% on grounded opponents, while it KOs aerial opponents around 120% when standing near the ledge.
