Slide smash: Difference between revisions

'''Slide Smashing''', also known as Smash Dashing or Hyphen Smashing is a simple, but useful technique. To do it, simply dash and use an [[Up smash]]; your character will slide to a stop while performing their Up-Smash. All characters can Slide Smash.

The most obvious use for the Slide Smash is as an alternative to using the character's [[dash attack]], which is generally mediocre to weak in terms of power; many dash attacks also leave your character vulnerable where as the Slide Smash is generally difficult to punish. Another use is simply as a set-up to an Up-Smash, which can be used to combo or to kill. Finally, for fast characters such as [[Sonic]], [[Captain Falcon]] and [[Marth]] a Slide Smash covers incredible distance, which is useful for approach.
