Falco brings his arms down in a chopping manner. The move deals 15% clean and 10% late.

Falco quickly brings both his arms down on the opponent. Uncharged, it does 10% damage non-tipped, 15% damage tipped. Fully charged, it does 15% damage non-tipped, and 21% damage tipped.

This is Falco's most powerful move (barring {{h1|Landmaster|Falco}}), being able to [[KO]] at lower than 125% uncharged. Combined with its low startup, this makes it one of the most feared moves in the game. It can be used as a followup to his {{mvsub|Falco|SSBB|neutral attack|alt=jab}}, or after a succesful group of [[jab reset]]s.

Hitbox visualization showing Falco's forward smash.

Overview[edit]

Falco brings his arms down in a chopping manner. The move deals 15% clean and 10% late. The move is Falco's strongest attack knockback wise, KOing at around 130%, but despite its power, the move is very sluggish, hitting on frame 16, and must be sweetspotted for efficient KOs. The move thus often necessitates a hard read to be used effectively and as such, players often turn to Falco's up smash for more guaranteed punishes.
