Ness brings out a baseball bat and swings it. This attack is similar to [[Marth (SSBM)|Marth`s]] in terms of function; the strongest part is at the tip and the strongest part is also at the bottom of the ID stack. This attack deals 24% with very high knockback (along with Mario`s). This attack is also unique among forward smashes (in fact, any smash attack in general) that it can reflect projectiles (like an actual baseball bat hitting a baseball). Unlike ''Smash 64'', Ness`s side smash now has to be sweetspotted (with the weakest part of it dealing Smash 64`s damage, which is 18%). But it deals much higher damage, has better range, and has 1 frame faster start-up. So overall, Ness`s side smash is more effective in ''Melee'' than in ''Smash 64'' (though not by that much).

Ness brings out a baseball bat and swings it. This attack deals high knockback and the most damage of any single-hit forward smash when tipped but is among the weakest at its innermost point. The attack is unique among forward smashes in that it can [[reflect]] projectiles when timed correctly. The move does more damage the further away the opponent is, with a reasonably fast hitbox; the reflection aspect mostly goes unused in competitive play due to the lag afterwards as well as the reflector's low range and short duration. While it is often recognized as the worst reflector in the game, it is also considered one of the best forward smashes in the game due to its decent speed, good range, high disjoint, and high power in all but the sourest of hits. It sees frequent use in competitive play, for a move of its class, for its subtle rear-back and its ability to whiff-punish, especially during a [[pivot]].

Overview[edit]

Hitbox of Ness' forward smash.

Ness brings out a baseball bat and swings it. This attack deals high knockback and the most damage of any single-hit forward smash when tipped but is among the weakest at its innermost point. The attack is unique among forward smashes in that it can reflect projectiles when timed correctly. The move does more damage the further away the opponent is, with a reasonably fast hitbox; the reflection aspect mostly goes unused in competitive play due to the lag afterwards as well as the reflector's low range and short duration. While it is often recognized as the worst reflector in the game, it is also considered one of the best forward smashes in the game due to its decent speed, good range, high disjoint, and high power in all but the sourest of hits. It sees frequent use in competitive play, for a move of its class, for its subtle rear-back and its ability to whiff-punish, especially during a pivot.
