The forward aerial (abbreviated as "fair", "FAir", "f-air" or "AFA") is an aerial attack that is performed in midair by pressing the A Button, and tilting the control stick in the direction the character is facing. Its official term varies between titles, where it is known as a "Front Midair Attack" in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and a "Front Air Attack" in Brawl.
Notable characters' forward aerials
- Marth's forward aerial, a very quick launcher with a very large hitbox. Both its sweet spot at the tip of Marth's blade and the center of the blade can be used to combo the enemy, sometimes into Marth's deadly tipped forward smash.
- Zelda's forward aerial (As well as her back aerial) is capable of dealing high damage around 20% and high knockback if sweetspotted.
- Captain Falcon's forward aerial, better known as the knee, is an extremely powerful low-trajectory killer.
- Sheik's forward aerial is a very quick low-trajectory killer. Said attack is also a Semi-Spike
- Dr. Mario's and Ganondorf's forward aerial, each of which is sometimes called the "fist", are slow but powerful killers that send the enemy at a relatively high angle.
- Ness' forward aerial is a great disjointed hitbox attack which lasts more than average. This attack has average range though, strangely, low priority.
