==Overview==
==Overview==
Meta Knight does a quick horizontal [[slash]] below him, doing 7%-9% [[damage]] and hits on frame 4. Like his up aerial, the move has transcendent priority, extremely little [[start-up lag]] but has a bit more [[ending lag]] but has very little regardless, making this move hard to [[punish]]. With its [[semi-spike]] trajectory and decent [[knockback]], it is one of the best [[edgeguarding]] and [[gimp]]ing moves in the game. It does great against opponents with poor horizontal recovery like {{SSBB|Ike}} and {{SSBB|Link}}. It can also be used to perform a variation of the [[wall of pain]] on many opponents. In addition, Meta Knight can "[[vertical space]]" with this move using a [[footstool jump]]→down aerial combo. This is rather situational, but can gimp easily, and if the opponent is hit into the stage, it can [[stage spike]], with a {{mvsub|Meta Knight|SSBB|up special|alt=Shuttle Loop}} being usable as a possible followup if the opponent [[tech]]s.

This move is very effective when used for [[air camping]], being difficult for opponents to break through, and useful for [[spacing]] in conjunction with his {{mvsub|Meta Knight|SSBB|forward aerial}}. There are ways to combat this though, such as {{mvsub|Pikachu|SSBB|up aerial|poss=y}}.

Overall, an excellent move that is reliable and not difficult to use in Meta Knight's metagame.
