A '''dash attack''' ({{ja|ダッシュ攻撃|Dasshu kōgeki}}) is an attack performed by pressing the [[attack]] button while [[dashing]]. Most dash attacks come out quickly and function as a character's primary burst option, but have noticeable [[ending lag]] and contain other properties that make them highly committal, making them very easy for wary opponents to [[punish]] (particularly using a [[shield grab]]). Prior to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', many dash attacks could be used for [[cross-up]]s due to a large amount of momentum inherited from the prior dash, though there are still multiple dash attacks with this property in ''Ultimate''.

Prior to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', many dash attacks could be used for [[cross-up]]s due to a large amount of momentum inherited from the prior dash. Although ''Ultimate'''s reworking of [[jostle]] mechanics makes most grounded moves either more difficult or impossible to cross-up, there are still multiple dash attacks with this property.


If the grab button or either of the shield buttons are pressed repeatedly right after attempting a dash attack, the attack will be canceled and turned into a [[boost grab]]. Similarly, in ''[[Brawl]]'', many dash attacks can be interrupted by performing an [[up smash]] in a technique labeled the [[dash attack canceled up smash]] (DACUS) to provide a large boost of momentum. Certain dash attacks are fast enough to hit before the up smash comes out, allowing for a [[Gatling Combo]].
