Fall speed is the rate at which characters fall to the ground following a jump or fall.
#REDIRECT [[Falling speed]]
 
A character's fall speed can have a great impact on the effectiveness of their fighting style in combat.
 
For example: [[Fox]] has a fast fall speed, allowing a few aerial moves within a quick series of jumps.  Other characters, such as [[Jigglypuff]] and [[Luigi]], have a slow fall speed allowing them to throw out a series of quick combos and attacks while staying aloft in midair, making them more suitable for aerial combat in most cases.
 
Just because a character has a fast fall speed does not make them heavy. Fox naturally falls faster then bowser, yet is much lighter.
The same could not be said for a character who picks up a metal box: Their [[weight]] and fall speed will increase dramatically.
