A '''down tilt''' (abbreviated "d-tilt"), officially called a '''strong down''' ({{ja|下強攻撃|Shita kyō kōgeki}}, ''Down/lower/under strong attack'') before ''Ultimate'', is a [[tilt]] performed by any [[character]] by holding the [[control stick]] lightly down and pressing the [[attack]] button while on the ground, or [[crouching]] ahead of time and pressing the [[attack]] button. It can also be performed by pressing Z while crouching. | A '''down tilt''' (abbreviated "d-tilt"), officially called a '''strong down''' ({{ja|下強攻撃|Shita kyō kōgeki}}, ''Down/lower/under strong attack'') before ''Ultimate'', is a [[tilt]] performed by any [[character]] by holding the [[control stick]] lightly down and pressing the [[attack]] button while on the ground, or [[crouching]] ahead of time and pressing the [[attack]] button.

Some down tilts are also combo or followup initiators, while others are capable [[edgeguarding]] moves due to their [[semi-spike]] angle. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', some down tilts are capable of [[meteor smash]]ing opponents, while from ''Brawl'' onwards, many have a random chance to make opponents [[trip]]. | ||

*[[Simon]] and [[Richter]]'s shared down tilt is the only one in the series that is a [[natural combo]]. The airborne nature of its second stage also allows the Belmonts to jump off the stage with it, making it one of the only tilts in the series along with Mega Man's [[up tilt]] that causes its user to functionally leave the ground. | *[[Simon]] and [[Richter]]'s shared down tilt is the only one in the series that is a [[natural combo]].

*[[King K. Rool]]'s down tilt will [[bury]] opponents who are struck by his foot, being the only down tilt in the series to do so. Beyond his foot, a large hitbox is also generated as a sour spot, which is similarly unique to this move. | *[[King K.

*[[Ryu]] and [[Ken]] have access to two different down tilts, depending on whether the attack button is quickly tapped or held for a longer time. This is also true for their [[neutral attack]] and other [[tilt]]s. In the case of down tilt, both characters' tapped down tilts can be repeated very quickly and have very low [[knockback]] which allows them to chain into deadly [[combos]], or even outright finishers like [[Shoryuken]]. | *[[Ryu]] and [[Ken]] have access to two different down tilts, depending on whether the attack button is quickly tapped or held for a longer time.
