Fox's '''[[Blaster (Fox)|Blaster]]''' can fire red lasers at opponents. The effects of the shots have changed from ''[[Smash 64]]'', having a faster firing rate and an increased traveling speed of the lasers, but the blaster has no [[hitstun]] or ability to [[flinch]] opponents, making it unable to stop [[approach]]es. However, players can still make use of its long range to [[projectile camp]], potentially racking up damage from a distance. Fox can also perform the [[short hop laser]] technique so he can draw his blaster quicker and reduce the [[ending lag]]; he can also move around slightly while doing so. Other similar techniques include [[short hop double laser]], [[ledgehopped double laser]], and [[wavelanded laser]], albeit requiring consistently fast reflexes to do due to Fox's very quick [[short hop]].
Fox's '''[[Blaster (Fox)|blaster]]''' fires red lasers at his opponents. The effects of the shots have changed from its [[Fox (SSB)/Neutral special|Smash 64 incarnation]], having a faster fire rate and an increased projectile speed, but no [[hitstun]] or ability to [[flinch]] opponents, making it unable to stop [[approach]]es or combo into other moves such as jab or up-smash. However, players can still make use of its long range to [[projectile camp]], potentially racking up damage from a distance. Fox can also perform the [[short hop laser]] technique so he can draw his blaster quicker and reduce the [[ending lag]]; he can also move around slightly while doing so. Fox can perform other similar techniques, including [[short hop double laser]], [[ledgehopped double laser]], and [[wavelanded laser]], albeit requiring consistently landing tight inputs due to Fox's very quick [[short hop]].
 
The lack of flinching means that should the opponent be incapacitated somehow, such as a [[shield break]] or [[Rest]], Fox can rack up several Blaster shots worth of damage before preparing his [[punish]] of choice. The move can also assist in getting that shield break, considering that it deals 7 frames of shield stun unstaled, which is +3 frame advantage if the move is done frame perfectly.
