The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

A '''shield stab''', also called a '''shield poke''', is the event of finding a damageable portion of a character slightly outside of their [[shield]] and striking it, therefore bypassing their attempt to shield. This is an extremely useful technique, as it can be used to strike an otherwise defended enemy. | A '''shield stab''', also called a '''shield poke''', is the event of finding a damageable portion of a character slightly outside of their [[shield]] and striking it, therefore bypassing their attempt to shield.

Due to [[Yoshi]]'s unique egg shield, which does not shrink and always covers his entire body, he cannot normally be shield stabbed. However, in ''Brawl'', the very bottoms of Yoshi's feet hang out the bottom of his egg, which can be shield stabbed from below with very precise distancing. | Due to [[Yoshi]]'s unique egg shield, which does not shrink and always covers his entire body, he cannot normally be shield stabbed.
