Captain Falcon moves backward a short distance before dashing forward, allowing him to dodge and counter close-range attacks. The move can be used for [[mindgames]] owing to its unpredictability and the ability to retreat at the start. It is also worth noting that using the move out of [[hitstun]] during airborne drastically increases its travel distance and speed, similar to {{SSB4|Wario}}'s [[wectoring]]. This can be exploited to grant a significant boost in recovery distance for the move, to the extent that Captain Falcon can recover from the other side of the stage or even potentially catch opponents off-guard with an unexpected attack. However, due to how far it travels out of hitstun, it can lead to [[SD]]s if not used cautiously. | Captain Falcon moves backward a short distance before dashing forward, allowing him to dodge and counter close-range attacks.
