'''Careening''' (referred to in animations as '''"BulletMode"''', referred to by ''SSB4'' [[tips]] as '''cannonball effect''') is a state entered by defeated enemies in [[The Subspace Emissary]], [[Smash Run]], and [[Master Fortress]]. Once its [[HP]] reaches zero, a blast sound can be heard and the defeated enemy begins flying in a straight direction (based on the angle of the attack that hit it), bouncing off parts of the stage and damaging other enemies it runs into. Upon reaching a [[blast line]] or after a few seconds, the enemy is removed from play. | '''Careening''' (referred to in animations as '''"BulletMode"''', referred to by ''SSB4'' [[tips]] as '''cannonball effect''') is a state entered by defeated enemies in [[The Subspace Emissary]], [[Smash Run]], and [[Master Fortress]].

The damage dealt by a careening enemy is dependent on the [[difficulty]], with higher difficulties making the attack weaker. Generally, larger enemies deal more damage when careening | The damage dealt by a careening enemy is dependent on the [[difficulty]], with higher difficulties making the attack weaker. Generally, larger enemies deal more damage when careening - a careening [[Greap]] would deal massive damage on any difficulty, while a careening [[Mite]] would barely deal any damage, even on [[difficulty|easy mode]]. Careening enemies also always use a special knockback angle encoded as 363, whose properties are mostly unknown. [[Roader]]s cannot be subjected to Careening, instead exploding, although their wheel will be sent flying for a similar effect. [[Koopa Troopa]]s also retract into their shell upon defeat thus cannot be subjected to Careening either. | ||
In ''Melee'', tumbling fighters launched by throws are capable of careening into other victims, causing them to experience knockback as well. In ''Brawl'', this now applies to all sources of knockback, not just throws. This is most apparent with very powerful moves such as [[Critical Hit]], or a powerful blow from a [[Soccer Ball]], which gives careening fighters enough momentum to KO other opponents outright. However, careening fighters who hit other fighters will have their own remaining knockback reduced, potentially allowing them to survive an otherwise lethal attack. This mechanic was removed entirely in ''Smash 4'', although enemies in Smash Run and Master Fortress are still capable of careening. Furthermore, {{SSB4|Luigi}}'s Final Smash, [[Poltergust 5000]], still has this property. | In ''Melee'', tumbling fighters launched by throws are capable of careening into other victims, causing them to experience knockback as well.
