Its poor height and inability to be angled unlike similar recovery moves, combined with the user's limited aerial mobility, makes it difficult to use as a recovery, but his whip aerials (except for [[neutral aerial]]) are also potent [[tether recoveries]]. Unlike the majority of the user's moveset, Uppercut comes out with quick [[startup]] in exchange for lacking range, making it an effective [[out of shield]] option. Uppercut's strong kill power makes it a great [[combo]] finisher, especially after a [[down aerial]]. | ||

This move is based on the High Jump ability which was introduced to the ''Castlevania'' series in ''Symphony of the Night''. In that game, after [[Alucard]] obtains the Gravity Boots, he can perform this maneuver with the inputs ↓, ↑ + [JUMP]. When playing in Richter Mode, Richter can perform this without obtaining the relic, attacking on the way up. It can be performed multiple times in the air. Various characters are capable of utilizing either variation, though it is primarily wielders of the Vampire Killer that use the uppercut. | This move is based on the High Jump ability which was introduced to the ''Castlevania'' series in ''Symphony of the Night''.

While Simon generally has not been shown to use this move, he was able to perform it in the short-lived mobile game ''Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls''.<ref>[https://img.konami.com/games/castlevania/gos/s/img/ss/gp_4_en.jpg Screenshot from the ''Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls'' website]</ref> | ||
