*[[Ryu]] and [[Ken]] have access to two different down tilts, depending on whether the attack button is quickly tapped or held for a longer time. This is also true for their [[neutral attack]] and other [[tilt]]s. In the case of down tilt, both characters' tapped down tilts can be repeated very quickly and have very low [[knockback]] which allows them to chain into deadly [[combos]], or even outright finishers like [[Shoryuken]].

*[[Luigi]]'s down tilt has been one of his least useful moves in the majority of the series. Although it was decent in ''Smash 64'' due to its fast startup and ability to combo into [[Super Jump Punch]], the move is nearly  useless in ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''Smash 4'' as its ending lag is too high for it to have any utility.

** However, the move was significantly buffed in ''Ultimate''. Although it can no longer trip opponents like in previous games, its ending lag was drastically reduced and it deals less knockback. This has made it highly spammable and one of his most useful moves as it is now a very reliable combo tool and is great for pressuring and poking the opponent's shield due to being extremely safe on shield. The move is also an amazing ledgetrapping tool as it can easily 2-frame opponents hanging at the ledge and pressure their ledge options.

*[[R.O.B.]]'s down tilt is considered a highly effective move due to its very low startup and ending lag, low knockback and it being able to trip opponents, allowing for multiple combos and setups. The move is very similar in all three games R.O.B. has appeared in, but it is at its most effective in ''Ultimate'', due to the move working best under the game's universal mechanics compared to the previous two games.

*[[Steve]]'s down tilt is the only one to be a projectile. The flame will travel downwards when used over an edge, allowing Steve to edgeguard opponents without leaving the stage.
