Update History

7.0.0

• Up smash has more knockback scaling (100 → 108), improving its KO potential.

12.0.0

• Up smash's first and second hits deal less fixed knockback (38, 30, 33, 53 → 33, 23, 23, 48). The second hit's hitboxes are also moved slightly further (X: 0.0, 0.0, 5.2, 5.2 → 1.0, 1.0, 6.5, 6.5). This overall improves the move's ability to connect into the third hit.

Hitboxes

For hits 1 and 2, only the ID 0 hitbox has a hitstun modifier specified in the scripts, but it applies to all their hitboxes due to a glitch.
