'''Failnaught''' ({{ja|魔弓 フェイルノート|Makyū Feirunōto}}, ''Demon Bow Failnaught'')  is [[Byleth]]'s [[neutral special move]].
'''Failnaught''' ({{ja|魔弓 フェイルノート|Makyū Feirunōto}}, ''Demon Bow, Failnaught'')  is {{SSBU|Byleth}}'s neutral special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
==Overview==
==Overview==
The attack consists of Byleth pulling out the bow and charging up an arrow to fire. Once released, the arrow will fire in a straight line, unaffected by gravity. The arrow will disappear after traveling a certain distance if it does not hit an opponent. Unlike {{SSBU|Link}}'s [[Bow and Arrows|bow]], Byleth can turn around or cancel the move during its startup, but must go through with the full preparation to fire a shot rather than being able to prematurely release the arrow. If the button is held until the arrow is ready, it becomes more powerful, but the attack can no longer be reversed or canceled, locking Byleth's movement until they fire the arrow. A fully charged arrow gains the properties of an energy projectile, as it can be [[absorption|absorbed]]. Also, while it can be [[reflection|reflected]], the fully charged arrow cannot be {{b|inhale|disambiguation}}d, or [[pocket]]ed.
When the move is used, Byleth pulls out the bow and charges up an arrow to fire. Unlike {{SSBU|Link}}'s [[Bow and Arrows|bow]], once the move is inputted, he will go through with the attack rather than prematurely release the arrow. If the button is held, the arrow becomes more powerful, but the attack can no longer be reversed or shield-canceled, locking Byleth's movement until they fire the arrow. A fully charged arrow seems to gain properties of an energy projectile, as it can be [[absorption|absorbed]]. Also, while it can be [[reflection|reflected]], the fully charged arrow cannot be inhaled, or [[Pocket|pocketed]].


The fully charged arrow, while being hampered with one of the slowest startups in the game, is also one of the strongest projectiles in the game, able to KO middleweights around 50% at the ledge. Additionally, both the charged and uncharged versions of the arrow deal unusually hefty shield damage, with the charged version nearly being able to break a full-sized shield all by itself. However, if a fully-charged Failnaught shot is reflected back at Byleth, it has the potential to KO them even at 0%.

Byleth may occasionally say "Failnaught!" while using this move.

===Failnaught Cancelling===
{{main|Charge storage canceling}}
When cancelling Failnaught with a shield, double jump, or airdodge, there is a 4-frame transition between cancelling the attack and the action being performed. Interrupting this transition by releasing the shield button or landing before these 4 frames are up causes Byleth to go into the standing state instead, allowing them to immediately act. This can be used as a conditioning tool, or as a way to bait and punish approaches.
==Neutral aerial==
==Neutral aerial==
Failnaught is one of Byleth's four weapons utilized throughout his moveset, with only neutral aerial and neutral special causing Byleth to wield it. Unlike the prior weapons, Failnaught does not feature any particular traits.

Failnaught is one of the 14 {{s|fireemblem|Heroes' Relics}} in ''Three Houses'', regalia weapons forged from the bones and hearts of the Nabateans by "those who slither in the dark", and the personal weapon of [[fireemblem:Claude|Claude von Riegan]]. While it is in his possession, it grants him the {{s|fireemblem|Fallen Star}} combat art, which is effective against dragon enemies and lets the user avoid all other attacks during the enemy's next round of combat. Failnaught can be wielded by other characters, but it will not grant Fallen Star to those without the [[fireemblem:Crests|Crest]] of Riegan and those without a Crest will take damage after attacking with it.
