[[File:Ike's Forward Smash.jpg|thumb|{{SSBB|Ike}}'s [[forward smash]], displaying the slash effect's crescent-shaped visual effect|250px]]
'''Slash''' is an attack [[effect]] in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series that debuted in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' The slash effect generates a slash visual effect: a white and blue circular slash in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and a crescent-shaped visual effect from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' onward.


[[Image:Ike's Forward Smash.jpg|thumb|right|{{SSBB|Ike}}'s [[forward smash]] hitting {{SSBB|Snake}}. The crescent-shaped visual effect indicates that his forward smash has a slash effect.|250px]]
Slash attacks are boosted by Slash Attack [[sticker]]s in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''{{'}}s [[The Subspace Emissary]] and certain [[Spirit Battle]] [[condition]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Additionally, they are resisted by Slash Resistance stickers in The Subspace Emissary.


There are many attacks in the Smash Bros. series that make use of the '''slash''' [[effect]]. In most cases, the effect is used by attacks involving sharp objects. It is easily identifiable by the visual effects generated on impact: a white and blue circular slash in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and a crescent-shaped visual effect from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' onward.
==Stab==
[[File:Luigi's Forward Smash.JPG|thumb|{{SSB4|Luigi}}'s [[forward smash]] in ''SSB4'', a stab attack, displaying the straight-line visual effect|250px]]
'''Stab''' is an attack effect in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series that debuted in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. The stab effect generates a stabbing visual effect, a straight line in the direction of the attack (as opposed to a crescent-like effect produced by slash attacks).
 
Stab attacks are boosted by certain Spirit Battle conditions in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''.

==Sound effects==
While sound effects are not tied to attack effects, there are several different slashing sounds effects that are often used by attacks with a slash effect; there are two slashing sound effects in ''Super Smash Bros.'', while ''Melee'', ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' each have three, while ''Brawl'' has one sound played at differing speeds and pitches (e.g. {{SSBB|Link}}'s [[down aerial]] has a low pitch, whereas {{SSBB|Bowser}}'s [[neutral attack]] has a medium pitch). However, because sound effects and attack effects are separate, many slashing moves use other sound effects; for example, [[Fox]]'s clean up smash in ''Brawl'', ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' uses a kicking sound effect, while [[Roy]]'s non-[[sweetspot]]ted sword moves use punching sound effects.


There are two slashing sound effects in ''Super Smash Bros.'', while ''Melee'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' have three each. In ''Brawl'', there is only one sound played at differing speeds and pitches based on the attack used. For example, {{SSBB|Link}}'s [[down aerial]] has a low pitch, whereas {{SSBB|Bowser}}'s [[neutral attack]] has a medium pitch. Not all slash attacks use these sound effects, however: many of [[Young Link]] and [[Toon Link]]'s sword attacks, alongside [[Roy]]'s non-[[sweetspot]] sword moves, use punching sound effects.
In ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate'', two slash attacks that collide will produce a clanging sound effect reminiscent of metallic noises akin to swords clashing.


==Stab==
In ''Brawl'', ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'', there is a set of slash-based sound effects that are noticeably slower and deeper pitched than regular slash sounds. In ''Brawl'', these were reserved for [[Ike]] because of {{s|fireemblemwiki|Ragnell}}'s status as a heavy broadsword. In ''SSB4'', these sound effects, which have been altered, are also used as part of [[Pair Up]], [[Shulk]]'s [[Back Slash]] if he hits an opponent's back with the move, and [[Dunban]]'s attacks during [[Chain Attack]]. In ''Ultimate'', these sounds also play for [[Marth]] and [[Roy]]'s sweet spotted sword attacks, alongside all of [[Chrom]]'s sword attacks.
[[Image:Luigi's Forward Smash.JPG|thumb|right|{{SSB4|Luigi}}'s [[forward smash]]. The stab effect is shown as a straight line.|250px]]
''Super Smash Bros. 4'' introduces the '''stab''' effect, a variant of the slash effect used for a handful of attacks, such as [[Luigi]]'s [[forward smash]] and [[Bowser]]'s [[up smash]]. The two effects are functionally identical, differing only in visuals: the stab effect is shown as a straight line in the direction of the attack, instead of as a crescent.

==Trivia==
{{Effects}}
*In ''Melee'', two slash attacks that collide will produce a clanging sound effect reminiscent of metallic noises akin to swords clashing.
*In ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'', there is a set of slash-based sound effects that are noticeably slower and deeper pitched than regular slash sounds. These are normally reserved for [[Ike]] because of {{s|fireemblemwiki|Ragnell}}'s status as a heavy broadsword. However, this sound effect is also used for {{SSB4|Shulk}}'s [[Back Slash]] if he hits an opponent's back with the move, [[Dunban]]'s attacks during [[Chain Attack]], and [[Chrom]]'s attacks during [[Pair Up]].

A screenshot of Ike's forward smash hitting Snake, showing the visual boomerang effect. Taken by Hawk 21.
Ike's forward smash, displaying the slash effect's crescent-shaped visual effect

Slash is an attack effect in the Super Smash Bros. series that debuted in Super Smash Bros. The slash effect generates a slash visual effect: a white and blue circular slash in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, and a crescent-shaped visual effect from Super Smash Bros. Brawl onward.

Slash attacks are boosted by Slash Attack stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's The Subspace Emissary and certain Spirit Battle conditions in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Additionally, they are resisted by Slash Resistance stickers in The Subspace Emissary.

Stab[edit]

Luigi's forward smash in SSB4, a stab attack, displaying the straight-line visual effect

Stab is an attack effect in the Super Smash Bros. series that debuted in Super Smash Bros. 4. The stab effect generates a stabbing visual effect, a straight line in the direction of the attack (as opposed to a crescent-like effect produced by slash attacks).

Stab attacks are boosted by certain Spirit Battle conditions in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Sound effects[edit]

While sound effects are not tied to attack effects, there are several different slashing sounds effects that are often used by attacks with a slash effect; there are two slashing sound effects in Super Smash Bros., while Melee, Super Smash Bros. 4 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate each have three, while Brawl has one sound played at differing speeds and pitches (e.g. Link's down aerial has a low pitch, whereas Bowser's neutral attack has a medium pitch). However, because sound effects and attack effects are separate, many slashing moves use other sound effects; for example, Fox's clean up smash in Brawl, SSB4 and Ultimate uses a kicking sound effect, while Roy's non-sweetspotted sword moves use punching sound effects.

In Melee and Ultimate, two slash attacks that collide will produce a clanging sound effect reminiscent of metallic noises akin to swords clashing.

In Brawl, SSB4 and Ultimate, there is a set of slash-based sound effects that are noticeably slower and deeper pitched than regular slash sounds. In Brawl, these were reserved for Ike because of Ragnell's status as a heavy broadsword. In SSB4, these sound effects, which have been altered, are also used as part of Pair Up, Shulk's Back Slash if he hits an opponent's back with the move, and Dunban's attacks during Chain Attack. In Ultimate, these sounds also play for Marth and Roy's sweet spotted sword attacks, alongside all of Chrom's sword attacks.
