Dunno what the deal with this is

In ''Ultimate'', SDI retains its shorter distance from ''Smash 4'', and has received various other adjustments:
In ''Ultimate'', SDI retains its shorter distance from ''Smash 4'', and has received various other adjustments:
*Each time an SDI input is made, the next input is not registered until 4 frames later, and if any SDI inputs occur during these frames, the latest one is buffered when another SDI pulse is possible. However, as it is difficult for human players to consistently SDI at such a fast speed, this change is generally considered minor. Notably, this limit does not apply to shield SDI, making it comparatively stronger than in ''Smash 4'' due to the increased hitlag in ''Ultimate''.

*ASDI has been removed almost entirely, only applicable on moves with an [[electric]], [[paralyze]], or [[crumple]] effect, and a special attack effect only used for [[Kazuya (SSBU)|Kazuya's]] 10-hit combo, further limiting its application. Oddly enough, it now applies twice against moves with these effects.

*For every five consecutive hits a character takes, the SDI distance for the next five hits is increased by 1.15×. As a result, the longer a character is trapped in a multi-hit attack, such as a [[rapid jab]], the easier it is to escape with SDI.

*If a character is hit at least 20 times, they are allowed to SDI upward even if the attack would keep them on the ground, which otherwise prevents vertical SDI, and thus go airborne. While this has very limited practical utility, it notably allows characters to escape {{SSBU|Isabelle}}'s "Wobbelle" setup, which involves her trapping opponents at the edge with repeated hits of her [[neutral attack]], due to its combination of low knockback and high [[hitstun]].
