==Overview==
==Overview==
Meta Knight does a running kick. For a dash attack, this move has very high speed, and disjointed range, making it his most reliable [[approach]] option. It additionally has nearly entirely vertical knockback at the end of the move, having even more follow-ups than his down throw, and can initiate [[zero-death]]s. However, the beginning of the move is still very useful, as it gives the perfect angle for a chain of up aerials into [[Shuttle Loop]]. A defining part of his current metagame, this attack leaves the opponent wide open to other moves, setting up combos until mid-percents, and [[juggling|juggles]] and KO set-ups at high percents.
Meta Knight does a running kick. This move has low-start-up and endlag, a slightly disjointed hitbox, lasts long, and covers a good distance, making it a relatively safe move, and one of Meta Knight's only approach options. It sends opponents at a vertical trajectory, setting up combos. At low percents, it can lead into any aerial, an up smash, up tilt, and Mach Tornado. And even at KO percents, it links reliably into Shuttle Loop, giving him an excellent kill-confirm. Bewteen 25 and 35%, it can chain into five or six up aerials, before finishing with Shuttle Loop, KOing most characters at 60%.  
 
Due to its good frame data, favorable hitbox, and excellent combo potential, Meta Knight's dash attack is widely regarded as one of the best, if not the best of its kind.
