*In ''Melee'', {{SSBM|Peach}}'s down smash is a fearsome attack by any measure. Unlike most multi-hit attacks, all of its hits deal individually high [[damage]] and [[knockback]]. At low percentages, especially against a [[crouch cancel]]ling opponent, it can deal astonishingly high damage. Its high [[semi-spike]] knockback and fast speed also make it a great tool for [[edge-guarding]]. Since ''Brawl'', however, the attack has been [[nerf]]ed, and is now a fairly standard multi-hit attack. | *In ''Melee'', {{SSBM|Peach}}'s down smash is a fearsome attack by any measure.

*In ''Brawl'', {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s down smash is both among his fastest attacks and strongest KO options, and is notoriously difficult to punish due to Meta Knight's characteristic range and [[transcendent priority]]. | *In ''Brawl'', {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}'s down smash is both among his fastest attacks and strongest KO options, and is notoriously difficult to punish due to Meta Knight's characteristic range and [[transcendent priority]]. | ||
*[[Zero Suit Samus]]'s down smash has been a staple of her moveset in all three games she has appeared in. Despite having high startup lag, it has very low ending lag, a large hitbox and [[paralyze]]s the opponent which allows her to follow up with one of her KO options at high percents and can potentially start combos at low percents. | |||
*{{SSBU|Mr. Game and Watch}}'s down smash in ''Ultimate'' is notorious for its fast startup, long range, safety on shield, and long-lasting bury duration, leading into early KOs with forward smash. | *{{SSBU|Mr. Game and Watch}}'s down smash in ''Ultimate'' is notorious for its fast startup, long range, safety on shield, and long-lasting bury duration, leading into early KOs with forward smash. | ||
