The upper blast line is different from the others in that characters can freely pass it without being KO'd in most situations; characters can freely jump and attack above the blast line (the cause of the [[Luigi ladder]]). Characters are only KO'd off the top if they are standing on platforms that leave the stage or they are being propelled upwards by [[knockback]] (including from [[windbox]]es), a broken [[shield]], a thrown {{b|Screw Attack|item}}, or the [[Wario Waft]]. These characteristics do not apply in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''; the top blast line in said game will KO characters regardless of how they pass it.

Characters KO'd via the upper blast line are either [[star KO]]'d or [[screen KO]]'d. There are a few exceptions to this, however. In most battles in [[1P Mode]] where the player fights a large team of opponents, the opponents are KO'd off the upper blast line as if it were any other blast line, instead of being star or screen KO'd. In ''Brawl'', there's a glitch that causes characters who are KO'd over the upper blast line during the usage of a [[tether recovery]] to be KO'd with a glitched colored blast. Additionally in ''Brawl'', if a character is KO'd at the upper blast line while near the left or right blast line, they are KO'd as normal instead of star/screen KO'd.

In ''Brawl'', there's a glitch that causes characters who are KO'd over the upper blast line during the usage of a [[tether recovery]] to be KO'd with a simple colored blast. Additionally in ''Brawl'', if a character is KO'd at the upper blast line while near the left or right blast line, they are KO'd as normal instead of star/screen KO'd.


The game's camera refuses to pan or zoom enough during gameplay to actually "see" the blast lines (although the lines themselves are invisible, as can be evidenced when the camera is rotated while pausing). When a character is between a blast line and the camera's view (or above the upper blast line without dying), they will appear in a bubble and slowly take damage. This is known as [[Magnifying-Glass Damage]].
