[[File:MetaKnightNAir.gif|thumb|270px|Hitbox visualization showing Meta Knight's neutral aerial.]]

==Overview==
Meta Knight spins with Galaxia extended. With quick start-up, long duration, low ending and landing lag, and good power, this move is effective for relieving [[pressure]], either as an [[out of shield]] option or to break [[juggling|juggles]]. It is also a decent [[combo]] move, being able it to lead into a dash attack at lower percents, and it can easily be comboed into from Meta Knight's dash attack, down throw, and up aerial. Neutral aerial is also a potent [[edge-guarding]] tool, as it can cover both immediate and delayed recoveries, and the strong hit KO's offstage at roughly 100%, while the late hit sends foes at a favorable trajectory. 

Overall, this is a highly versatile move that is used commonly in competitive play.
