Gale Strike (トルネードショット, Tornado Shot), known as Tornado Strike in the PAL version, is one of three neutral special moves for the Mii Swordfighter. When this move is used, the Mii Swordfighter spins in place then slashes, sending a swirling gale forward. The gale speeds up as it moves, and hits enemies multiple times as it passes through them[1]. If the gale slides off an edge, it will fall slightly before continuing forward in a straight line[2]. The move is aesthetically similar to Link's Gale Boomerang, but behaves more like the Ore Club's tornadoes. The attack is also capable of destroying some objects, such as Diddy Kong's bananas. If an opponent touches the tornado during its final frames of animation, they will not take any damage and simply be lifted up (or pushed backwards) by it, boosting their recovery. If the Swordfighter uses Gale Strike in midair, they will gain a bit of upwards momentum.

In Ultimate, the move travels a shorter distance overall and has lost its pushing ability, but it is now a far stronger, more effective combo starter, complete with the ability to be launched much faster.
