Zelda sweeps her magic-infused arm to create a powerful overhead concentration of energy. It is a multi-hit with a moderate vertical disjoint, and while Zelda crouches slightly downward, her arm is still susceptible to being hit from above. Only the final hit can reach platforms. Among her kill moves, it is more average in power, but if all hits connect, it can KO relatively early | Zelda sweeps her magic-infused arm to create a powerful overhead concentration of energy.

Its low horizontal range and high ending lag heavily limit its utility. Still, it has 24 total active frames, making it among the longest-lasting smash attacks in the game. There are only two single-frame gaps between the first and final hits, making it effective at punishing spot dodges, rolls, ledge getups and landings | Its low horizontal range and high ending lag heavily limit its utility.

It can also be used preemptively to call out aerial approaches or reckless ground approaches, but will generally lose to disjoints. | ||
It's tied for her second fastest out of shield option, but only works against directly adjacent opponents that are not too low. Despite its mediocre range, it offers a consistent KO option out of shield compared to the DI and percentage variables of Farore's Wind or the precision of her Lightning Kicks. | It's tied for her second fastest out of shield option, but only works against directly adjacent opponents that are not too low.
