The current version of Blaster was introduced in ''[[Melee]]'', and is quite different compared to the original in ''Smash 64''; it has a faster rate of fire and traveling speed is drastically increased, but it also has no knockback or hitstun and does 1%-3% damage per shot (the lack of hitstun/knockback also applies to the Blaster being used in Fox's up, down and back throws). This is one of the few moves in the game that can never provide a [[KO]] except by stealing other players' KO's | The current version of Blaster was introduced in ''[[Melee]]'', and is quite different compared to the original in ''Smash 64''; it has a faster rate of fire and traveling speed is drastically increased, but it also has no knockback or hitstun and does 1%-3% damage per shot (the lack of hitstun/knockback also applies to the Blaster being used in Fox's up, down and back throws). This is one of the few moves in the game that can never provide a [[KO]] except by stealing other players' KO's. It is mainly used from long range (as [[short hop]] lasers or short hop double lasers) to camp and bring up damage for an [[up throw]]→[[up aerial]] combo or [[up smash]]. It should be avoided while standing as there is ending lag. Its spammability gives it a more indirect function in unstaling the rest of Fox's moves, particularly reliable KO moves such as up aerial and up smash, without being heavily impacted by staleness itself. | ||
In ''[[Brawl]]'', Fox's Blaster has once again changed: the range of the Blaster now travels roughly half of its previous distance. His blaster inflicts 3% per shot before move decay sets in. Fox is also now capable of a [[short hop laser|short hop triple laser]], allowing him to inflict more damage on opponents falling to the stage. It is similar to ''Melee'' in extent to its use for camping. It is also used after auto-canceled [[aerial attack|aerials]] to reduce landing [[lag]] and after [[forward aerial]]s usually or after jumping from the ledge. | In ''[[Brawl]]'', Fox's Blaster has once again changed: the range of the Blaster now travels roughly half of its previous distance.
