Template:SSB4 to SSBU changelist/Corrin: Difference between revisions

===Aesthetics===

**{{change|These changes also apply to Corrin's Feral Dragon form. Its features are also more pronounced.}}

*{{change|As with all previous downloadable fighters in ''SSB4'', Corrin now has a unique [[Palutena's Guidance]] conversation.}}

*{{change|Corrin has a unique [[victory theme]], based upon {{s|fireemblemwiki|Lost in Thoughts All Alone}}.}}

***{{buff|This allows it to hit from farther distances earlier, and causes the early tip sweetspot to come out faster.}}

***{{nerf|However, this removes the late tipper sweetspot and shortens the move's total duration (frames 17-22 → 17-18).}}

**{{nerf|The move has drastically smaller hitboxes (3.5u/3u/2.2u → 2u/1.7u/1.1u).}}

**{{change|The middle and tip have higher hitlag multipliers (middle: 0.8x → 1x, tip: 1x → 1.5x).}}

*[[Up smash]]:

*[[Down smash]]:

**{{nerf|The back hit's tip sweetspot has lower knockback scaling (95 → 85).}}

===Aerial attacks===

*{{buff|All aerials except down aerial have less landing lag (13 frames → 10 (neutral), 14 → 8 (forward), 14 → 13 (back), 15 → 9 (up)).}}

*[[Neutral aerial]]:

*[[Forward aerial]]:

**{{nerf|The move has more startup lag (frame 7 → 9).}}

*[[Up aerial]]:

*[[Down aerial]]:

**{{buff|The move's looping hits have a lower hitlag multiplier (1x → 0.8x) and use [[weight-independent]] knockback, allowing them to connect more reliably.}}

*[[Back throw]]:

**{{nerf|Back throw's tipper has lower knockback scaling (110 → 100), reducing its KO ability against bystanders.}}

*[[Edge attack]]:

**{{buff|Edge attack deals more damage (7% → 9%).}}

*[[Dragon Fang Shot]]:

**{{buff|Due to the altered [[paralysis]] mechanics, Dragon Fang Shot can deal knockback to offstage opponents that have been already paralyzed, improving its edgeguarding ability, and can paralyze opponents for longer at higher percents.}}

***{{nerf|This is further hindered by the new knockback speed up effect, as opponents are launched faster and experience less [[hitstun]] at higher percents.}}

*[[Dragon Lunge]]:

***{{buff|Manually canceling the pin also incurs less ending lag (FAF 15 → 13).}}

**{{nerf|The kick portion has Corrin slant towards the ground during the kick itself, rather than after. This ends up reducing the distance the kick travels, worsening its utility.}}

**{{nerf|Both kicks have drastically more ending lag (FAF 46 → 57 (forward), 46 → 61 (back)).}}

*[[Dragon Ascent]]:

**{{change|The move is called '''Dragon Ascent''' across all English versions of the game, rather than '''Draconic Ascent''' in the NTSC version.}}

**{{buff|The last hit has more knockback scaling (155 → 170).}}

**{{change|The move travels more distance, but halts at the end of the move instead of granting slight horizontal momentum. Overall, this improves Corrin's vertical recovery, but at the cost of having no extra momentum for horizontal recovery.}}

**{{change|It deals seven hits, down from eight, but the second to sixth hits deal more damage (1% → 1.2%), leaving the total unchanged.}}

*[[Counter Surge]]:

**{{buff|Counter Surge has a longer [[counterattack]] window (frames 7-24 → 7-26). However, with a window of just 20 frames, it is still one of the shortest counter windows in the game.}}

**{{nerf|It has more ending lag both when missed (FAF 64 → 67) and upon a successful counterattack (FAF 50 → 67), most significantly in the latter case. This removes its combo potential, hinders the effectiveness of consecutive counters (additionally removing the infinite Counter Surge performed by two Corrins), and causes Corrin to no longer be intangible for the entire duration of a counterattack.}}

**{{nerf|It has a higher hitlag multiplier (1x → 1.2x), making it easier to DI and SDI.}}
