In ''Ultimate'', air dodges have received a major overhaul, containing elements from all previous games. Depending on the player's control stick input, characters can use two types of air dodges:
*If no direction is held, they perform a '''neutral air dodge''' (known as simply '''Air Dodge''' officially, and '''EscapeAir''' internally), which behaves like air dodges in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'', preserving their momentum. Compared to ''Smash 4'', these air dodges have much more ending lag (with an average duration of 49-50 frames, up from 32-33 frames), but their landing lag is effectively halved (10 frames, down from 21), and they grant slightly more intangibility (two additional frames for most characters). This causes them to be much more punishable if used high above the ground or offstage, but safer to land with.
