An '''aerial attack''' | An '''aerial attack''' is any attack that is performed in midair that is not a [[special move]]. Their official terms vary between titles; they are known as '''midair attacks''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and '''air attacks,'' in ''[[Brawl]]''. Aerial attacks play an especially large role in competitive play because they can be [[L-canceled]] and can be performed after a short hop, greatly reducing their [[lag]] and [[start-up time]] as compared to ground attacks. Most aerial attacks deal moderate damage (9%-14%-ish). | ||
