Overview[edit]

Meta Knight's Flurry Attack executes a lightning-fast series of slashes, ending with him doing a swift uppercut with Galaxia. One of Meta Knight's most reliable damage rackers, always dealing at least 10-11% damage. However, due to its nature, it is easily punishable if missed entirely.

Update History[edit]

Super Smash Bros. 4 1.0.8

  • Buff Neutral attack's loop hits deal 0.2% more damage: 1% → 1.2%, its loop hits' knockback scaling decreased: 40 → 30, its last hit's hitbox size increased: 5.7u → 8u, its ending lag decreased: frame 47 → 35, its SDI multiplier decreased: 1× → 0.6×, and its hitboxes split to cover more space. Altogether, these changes improve its damage racking potential, range and safety.

Hitboxes[edit]

All five of the loop hits have a separate set of hitboxes but they are all identical.

Trivia[edit]

  • Like in Brawl, this is the only neutral attack in the game that is purely a rapid jab.
