*[[Up special]]s are essentially a fighter's main [[recovery]] move (with the exception of [[Yoshi]]'s [[Egg Throw]] and [[Jigglypuff]]'s [[Sing]]) that give a fair amount of upward distance, and can either be damaging or non-damaging; almost all up specials cause helplessness. | *[[Up special]]s are essentially a fighter's main [[recovery]] move (with the exception of [[Yoshi]]'s [[Egg Throw]] and [[Jigglypuff]]'s [[Sing]]) that give a fair amount of upward distance, and can either be damaging or non-damaging; almost all up specials cause helplessness. | ||
*[[Down special]]s are often the most gimmicky of a fighter's special moves and the least straightforward, with most allowing the user to position themselves or their opponents ([[Dimensional Cape]], [[F.L.U.D.D.]]), generate [[item]]s ([[Vegetable]]), [[counterattack]] and retaliate ([[Vision]]), or other forms of tactical advantages ([[Nosferatu]]). | *[[Down special]]s are often the most gimmicky of a fighter's special moves and the least straightforward, with most allowing the user to position themselves or their opponents ([[Dimensional Cape]], [[F.L.U.D.D.]]), generate [[item]]s ([[Vegetable]]), [[counterattack]] and retaliate ([[Vision]]), or utilize other forms of tactical advantages ([[Nosferatu]]). | ||
Usually, only special attacks can be projectiles (although some fighters gain projectiles in their normal moveset starting from ''Brawl'', such as [[Snake]]'s and [[Olimar]]'s [[smash attack]]s, and [[Mega Man]] and [[Villager]]'s aerial attacks), and some are able to render the user [[helpless]] if used in mid-air (usually those that function as mid-air jumps, like most [[up special move]]s). | Usually, only special attacks can be projectiles (although some fighters gain projectiles in their normal moveset starting from ''Brawl'', such as [[Snake]]'s and [[Olimar]]'s [[smash attack]]s, and [[Mega Man]] and [[Villager]]'s aerial attacks), and some are able to render the user [[helpless]] if used in mid-air (usually those that function as mid-air jumps, like most [[up special move]]s). |
