Meta Knight spins with his sword extended. Deals high damage for how quick it is. With its damage and relatively high knockback, it is a useful combo breaker and combo finisher, and its low start-up makes it an effective out of shield option. The aforementioned attributes grant it potent offstage utility, being able to kill outright, gimp, and stage spike. It can be used to KO onstage if the opponent survives to very high damages. At low percentages, the late hit of the neutral aerial can combo into a dash attack.
