[[File: | [[File:Captain Falcon Forward Smash Hitbox Melee.gif|thumb|right|250px|Forward smash hitbox duration.]] | ||
Nicknamed '''The People's Elbow''', Captain Falcon rears back and thrusts his elbow in a fast-moving motion, dealing [[flame]] damage to anyone it connects with. This is one of the most powerful forward smashes in ''Melee'', being the third most powerful forward smash overall with especially high knockback scaling (while Ganondorf's produces slightly stronger knockback, the fact Ganondorf's hits vertically allows Falcon's to KO faster on [[fast faller]]s and stages with high ceilings). However, it is difficult to land, with slow start-up lag and rather small hitboxes (though since Falcon lunges far with it, it reaches far regardless). It is additionally very [[punish]]able, with a heavy 39 frames of ending lag. As such, despite its great power, the move is not seen much in competitive play, especially when Falcon has access to a much easier to land and much safer move with comparable power in his {{mvsub|Captain Falcon|SSBM|forward aerial|alt=Knee Smash}}. With a successful hard [[read]] though, it can potentially get a KO as early as 80% from center stage, and with its very high damage output, it can [[outprioritise]] up to moderate damage dealing ground attacks. | Nicknamed '''The People's Elbow''', Captain Falcon rears back and thrusts his elbow in a fast-moving motion, dealing [[flame]] damage to anyone it connects with.
