Editing Tap

A '''tap''', or '''tapping''', is a term used in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. It refers to quickly tilting or tilting in a direction mildley or very hard on the [[control stick]]/[[d-pad]] in a certain direction, and it is used to either [[dash]], [[jump]], [[mid-air jump|jump in mid-air]], jump from a [[platform]], and can be combined with the attack button to perform [[smash attack]]s.

==Different ways to use tapping==
There is a number of ways to use taps, as mentioned above. Note that for the [[Wii remote]], the equivalent to tapping is double tap, as tapping normally would act as a [[tilt]].

===Dash===
Tap the control stick/d-pad left or right to dash in that direction.

===Jump===
Tap the control stick/d-pad up to do a jump. This also works with midair jumps. Unlike other taps, this one can be turned off at the controls section in ''[[Brawl]]'', which some people prefer. Some characters, such as [[Yoshi (SSBB)|Yoshi]], benefit from turning this option off. Note that the player can always tap jump out of [[water]], even with the tap jump option off.

===Platform drop===
When on a pass-through platform, tap the control stick/d-pad down to fall through it.

===Smash attack===
One of the most important things of tapping would be to do smash attacks. To execute them, tap the control stick/d-pad in any direction while simutaniously pressing the attack or [[grab]] button.

-===[[Dash]]===
+===Dash===
-A player can dash by tapping the Control stick/D-pad left or right. It's important to note that the character will run with their [[initial dash]] if tapped, and upon further uses allows faster travel speed as most initial dashes are faster than their regular run speed. This technique is called [[fox-trotting]].
+Tap the control stick/d-pad left or right to dash in that direction.

+===Jump===
-A player can jump by tapping upwards on the Control Stick. Midair jumps, jumps out of [[water]] and [[edge]] jumps can also be performed this way.

-From ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' onward, tapping up to jump can be disabled in the [[Controls]] menu, except when using a sideways Wiimote due to the lack of buttons. Within tournaments, most players prefer disabling Tap Jump, as it can lead to accidental jumps when attempting to perform [[up tilt]]s or [[up aerial]]s, while others prefer to have it on to perform [[up smash]]es and [[up special]]s [[out of shield]] more easily, without having to press a jump button. Jumps from ledges or out of water are still possible by tapping up even if Tap Jump is turned off.

+When on a pass-through platform, tap the control stick/d-pad down to fall through it.
-The Tap Jump option is known as "Stick Jump" in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
