Commonly known as the '''Sleeping Bag''' by the Snake community, it has fast [[startup]] at frame 7 and possesses large, disjointed hitboxes that give the move very good [[range]]. The clean hit deals high damage and excellent knockback, easily being able to KO at high percentages, especially if it connects with the sweetspot located on Snake's feet. The late hit deals far less knockback but still sends the opponent decently far away. Its speed and power make it a useful approach option if used in a [[reverse aerial rush]], as well as a useful edgeguarding option. | ||

Overall, [[back aerial]] is a a highly rewarding move due to its speed, power, range and long lasting duration, making it useful both offensively and defensively. However, it must not be used carelessly as to not leave Snake vulnerable to punishment. | Overall, [[back aerial]] is a a highly rewarding move due to its speed, power, range and long lasting duration, making it useful both offensively and defensively.
