Final Smashes tend to be incredibly powerful attacks, often leaving the user [[invincible]] for the move's duration (the periods vary from character to character, but always apply upon startup/execution), and are generally [[unblockable attack|unblockable]]. If properly executed, they usually have the capacity to [[KO]] at least one opponent. Final Smashes performed correctly will give the player a great advantage, and may help to catch up to others or cement a commanding lead. Many Final Smashes also temporarily slow down stage elements, such as platform movements and motions in the background. However, in many cases, [[stage hazard]]s' hitboxes remain active while a non-cutscene Final Smash is in effect, making them exploitable for gaining additional damage.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRJOu-_qAH8</ref>

To perform a Final Smash, a player must first either destroy a [[Smash Ball]], fill the [[Final Smash Meter]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' (although then the Final Smash will be weaker), be given the ability by [[Victini]] or fall sufficiently far behind in a match that they are given a "Pity Final Smash" upon respawning. Once any of these happen, the screen will darken, the player's [[character]] will be engulfed in a multi-colored aura and their eyes will glow a bright yellow; officially referred to as '''Standby Mode''', the character's [[neutral special move]] is effectively replaced with a single use of their Final Smash.

In ''[[Brawl]]'', the majority of Final Smashes are powerful enough that they have the potential to KO incredibly early or even [[one-hit KO]] if used properly. In ''[[SSB4]]'', Final Smashes were universally made much weaker, many of them no longer being able to KO opponents at low percentages. [[#Changes in Ultimate|In]] ''[[Ultimate]]'', they have been slightly nerfed overall once again. If a player doesn't use a Final Smash granted by the Final Smash Meter in about 20 seconds, the effect will expire. Final Smashes have also been tweaked to be less disruptive to the gameplay.
