Marth performs an overhead slash while rotating his body. It is extremely fast for how hard it can hit, being the third strongest forward smash if tipped and reliably KOing anyone at 45% from center stage when fully charged. However, it is extremely weak if not tipped, being unable to KO before 110%, even when fully charged.
