*Attack: By pressing an attack button, a character will climb up onto the stage while performing an edge attack. This is primarily useful when the opponent is next to the edge, as a counter attack. Prior to ''Ultimate'', the amount of intangibilty ledge attacks had varied from character to character, ending shortly before the hitboxes became active in a vast majority of cases. In ''Ultimate'', attacks are intangible until hitboxes are no longer active. Prior to ''Smash 4'', when the character has 100% damage or more, they will perform a different, significantly slower ledge attack. On the plus side however, almost all edge attacks deal more damage (except for {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}'s) and the character still has invincibility frames when hitboxes are active, unlike with most normal edge attacks. Over 100% ledge attacks can have other advanatges/disadvantages such as more/less range or more/less relative ending lag. | *Attack: By pressing an attack button, a character will climb up onto the stage while performing an edge attack.

*Roll: By pressing a [[shield]] button, a character will climb up and roll forward a moderate distance. Prior to ''Smash 4'', when the character has 100% damage or more, ledge rolling is significantly slower, however the roll itself covers slightly more distance. | *Roll: By pressing a [[shield]] button, a character will climb up and roll forward a moderate distance.

* | *Jump: Introduced in ''Melee'', by pressing a jump button or pushing the analog stick up, a character will leap upwards and slightly forward. The jump has two parts: jumping off the ledge and the actual jump itself. The jump off the ledge is intangible but the player is vulnerable once they are jumping (although in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', the player can carry their ledge intangibility into the jump). In ''Melee'', the player is stuck in the jumping animation (which is fairly lengthy) and they cannot do anything until the animation is over, leaving them very vulnerable. Carrying over ledge intangibility can alleviate this although in a vast majority of cases, this is not enough. Ledge jumps in ''Melee'' are largely useless outside of specific cases as they are too slow, they are too punishable and they are heavily outclassed by simply dropping off the ledge and jumping back onto the stage (with ledge jumps jokingly having the nickname '''tournament winner''' due to its big risk). Starting from ''Brawl'' however, the player can immediately act out of the ledge jump, making it far more useful and much harder to punish. The player can quickly attack or edge dodge with the opponent having a very small punish window. In ''Brawl'' specifically, if the player carries over ledge intangibility to the ledge jump, they are fully intangible for a period of time during the ledge jump, allowing for fully intangible air dodges and attacks. Prior to ''Smash 4'', when the character has 100% damage or more, jumping off the ledge is slightly slower although the speed decrease is much less severe compared to other ledge options. | ||
*Letting go: By pressing the control stick away from an edge or downwards, a character will let go of the edge and they can immediately act. This gives the opponent access to any aerial options which can be useful for getting back onto the stage or edgeguarding. This is especially powerful in ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' as the player can carry over their ledge intangibility which can allow for some extremely powerful ledge sequences. | *Letting go: By pressing the control stick away from an edge or downwards, a character will let go of the edge and they can immediately act.
