Dimensional Cape: Difference between revisions

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the move was heavily [[Buff|buffed]], dealing slightly more damage and significantly more knockback. Because of its knockback buff, it is now one of Meta Knight's finishing moves, and it has more utility compared to the version in ''Brawl''. It can also benefit from the new edge-stealing mechanic, acting as a surprise recovery as it has increased invincibility frames. It is overall Meta Knight's most buffed move from ''Brawl'' to ''Smash 4'' in terms of knockback. Meta Knight now faces the opposite direction from where he originally faced upon reappearing, which also applies to all other directions he can teleport in.

Also in ''Smash 4'', Meta Knight has a new slashing animation where when  he teleports backward, Meta Knight slashes with an upward flicking strike without changing his direction. His default slashing animation now only applies to it being used stationary or vertically, along with him reappearing at a higher height to go over incoming attacks with. The said default slash also has a more downward-curving sword trail, giving it more range behind itself while no longer having Meta Knight slash behind if he teleports downward close towards/on the ground.
