From ''Brawl'' onwards, it also creates a [[vacuum]] that draws other characters towards him, and is notable from ''Smash 4'' onwards for instantly [[Shield break|breaking full shields]] with its {{b|sweetspot|hitbox}} (and in ''Ultimate'', breaking shields in its entire range, whether sweetspotted or not). It is often regarded as arguably the worst up tilt in every game it appears in, as its incredibly high startup lag makes it extremely difficult to land. | ||
*[[Marth]]'s up tilt in ''Melee'' covers a large area around him, has long-range, and relatively low ending lag, making it one of the best anti-air options in the game, and allowing it to combo into subsequent up tilts, aerial attacks, and even a grab or forward smash against [[fast faller]]s, while it can KO floaty characters at mid-high percentages. | *[[Marth]]'s up tilt in ''Melee'' covers a large area around him, has long-range, and relatively low ending lag, making it one of the best anti-air options in the game, and allowing it to combo into subsequent up tilts, aerial attacks, and even a grab or forward smash against [[fast faller]]s, while it can KO floaty characters at mid-high percentages. | ||
*From '' | *From ''Smash 4'' onward, [[Captain Falcon]]'s up tilt [[meteor smash]]es opponents who are struck with his heel, making it the only up tilt in the series that is a conventional meteor smash. Conversely, from ''Melee'' onward, [[Samus]] and [[Dark Samus]]'s shared up tilt is an [[unconventional meteor smash]]. | ||
*[[Snake]]'s up tilt in ''Brawl'' is often considered the best in the game due to its high knockback, fast startup, and huge disjointed hitbox. In ''Ultimate'', its hitboxes have become smaller, but it still sports a frightening combination of speed and power, causing it to handily retain its status as one of the best up tilts in the game. | *[[Snake]]'s up tilt in ''Brawl'' is often considered the best in the game due to its high knockback, fast startup, and huge disjointed hitbox.

It also notably grants full intangibility to his body during its first two active frames; which is very rare for a tilt attack. In later games, its knockback has been reduced to the point of being weaker than his up smash. | ||

It is notable for its ability to easily and quickly rack up damage and [[shield break combo|break shields]], as well as being able to outspace some characters' reliable approach options entirely on its own (such as {{SSB|Yoshi}}'s). It's ending lag, power and range have been toned down in later instalments, but it still remains a strong combo tool in every game. | ||
*[[Mega Man]]'s up tilt is very fast to start up and incredibly powerful, with among the highest knockback of any tilt (KOing at around 85%, earlier than even some uncharged up smashes), but has extremely high ending lag. Additionally, it is one of only two tilts in the series, along with [[Simon]] and [[Richter]]'s shared [[down tilt]], that causes the user to functionally leave the ground. | *[[Mega Man]]'s up tilt is very fast to start up and incredibly powerful, with among the highest knockback of any tilt (KOing at around 85%, earlier than even some uncharged up smashes), but has extremely high ending lag.
