There are a few [[attack]]s in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] that are '''magic'''-based.

'''Magic''' is an attack [[type]] in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series that encompasses magical attacks. Magic-type attacks (but not attacks with the {{b|Magic|effect}} effect) are amplified by Magic Attack [[sticker]]s in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''{{'}}s [[The Subspace Emissary]] and the [[spirit]] skill or trait Magic Attack ↑ as well as [[Spirit Battle]]s with the "Magic and PSI Unleashed" [[Conditions#List of Rules|rule]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Magic-type attacks are resisted by the support spirit skill Magic Resist ↑.


In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', magic was purely a [[type]], and so attacks could not be both Magic and [[Leg]] (for example). They were boosted by Magic Attack [[sticker]]s and tended to be [[electric]].

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', magic remains a type, but it can also be an [[effect]], which produces glittery visuals on hit. As a result, attacks can now be Leg/Magic, Weapon/Magic, or even Magic/Magic.

Zelda using Nayru's Love
Robin using Elwind

Magic is an attack type in the Super Smash Bros. series that encompasses magical attacks. Magic-type attacks (but not attacks with the Magic effect) are amplified by Magic Attack stickers in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's The Subspace Emissary and the spirit skill or trait Magic Attack ↑ as well as Spirit Battles with the "Magic and PSI Unleashed" rule in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Magic-type attacks are resisted by the support spirit skill Magic Resist ↑.
