(Undid edit by Kiedan: ) Tag: Undo |
(The neutral attack section felt really confusing/unclear due to excessively comparing/conflating the added rapid jab/finisher with jab's former third hit, while largely neglecting to note the changes to the jab 1 that still exists/can be used on its own) Tag: Manual revert |

**{{ | **{{buff|It has significantly less startup lag (frame 11 → 4), no longer being the slowest neutral attack in the game.}} | ||
**{{ | **{{nerf|The third hit has been removed. Combined with the move's faster startup, this makes the move much less safe on shield and eliminates its combo potential at low percents.}} | ||
**{{buff|The first | ***{{buff|However, neutral attack has gained a rapid jab with a finisher, which can be transitioned into after the second hit. This partially compensates for the lost third hit by having similar damage output and higher KO potential.}} | ||
**{{ | **{{nerf|The first two hits deal less damage (3% → 2.5%). With the removal of the third hit, it deals much less total damage (11% → 5%).}} | ||
**{{buff| | **{{buff|The first hit lasts for 2 frames, up from 1.}} | ||
**{{nerf| | **{{change|The first two hits have a lower [[hitlag]] multiplier (1× → 0.6×). They have more horizontal launch angles (361°/140°/140° → 361°/361°/180°), with only the outermost hitbox sending inward now.}} | ||
**{{ | ***{{change|The outermost hit uses a separate outward angle (361°) for non-fighter targets, preventing Zelda from launching incoming items and projectiles toward herself.}} | ||
**{{ | ***{{buff|Due to the inner two hits all using the Sakurai angle, they can now [[jab lock]] and trip until high percents. The outermost hit can do so at nearly any percent due to never lifting opponents off the ground until ridiculous percents.}} | ||
**{{change|It no longer has [[set knockback]] (40/30 set/100 scaling → 25 base/35/30/20 scaling (hit 1), 40/25 base/25/20/25 scaling (hit 2)). The second hit has gained a [[hitstun modifier]] of 2.}} | |||
***{{buff|This makes the inner hits deal more knockback at high percents, giving them [[jab cancel]] setups.}} | |||
***{{nerf|Compared to the inner hits, the outermost hit has notably lower knockback, making it negative on hit until high percents and unable to jab cancel until unrealistically extreme percents. This makes the move riskier to use without transitioning into the rapid jab, and makes its jab cancel ability inconsistent.}} | |||
***{{nerf|The knockback scaling eventually makes only the first hit connect, though this only occurs at ridiculous percents.}} | |||
**{{nerf|It has smaller hitboxes (3.2u/3.2u/4u (hits 1-2), 3.6u/3.6u/6u (hit 3) → 2.4u/2.4u/3.2u (hit 1), 3u/3.2u/3.5u (hit 2)) which are positioned closer to Zelda (z-offset 5.5u/9.5u/13u (all hits) → 4u/7u/10u (hit 1), 5u/8u/11.5u (hit 2)), drastically reducing its horizontal range and spacing utility.}} | |||
***{{nerf|The hitboxes are positioned lower (y-offset 12.5u (all) → 12u/12u/11.8u (hit 1), 11.8u/11.8u/11.5u (hit 2)), worsening their range above Zelda while not improving their reach below due to their smaller sizes.}} | |||
***{{buff|However, there is a new hitbox in front of Zelda's lower body, improving its ability to hit shorter opponents at point-blank range.}} | |||

The sweetspot is extended (z-offset: 12.8 → 12.6-13.2), but the sourspot and late hit's horizontal ranges were compensated on the far side (z-offset 7.8-13.8 → 7.8-13.6). Overall this improves the move's range and makes it easier to land the sweetspot.}} | ||
