Button mashing can also refer to repeatedly pushing the ''same'' input (or '''[[spamming]]'''), such as mashing the special button when firing [[Fox]]'s [[Blaster]]. Spamming can prolong many attacks, and may also be used to increase the frequency, range, duration, etc., of others. When precise timing is not required, mashing is often the fastest and most reliable way to go. Less advanced players may choose to mash with techniques like [[dodging]] in order to increase their chances of success.

The [[buffer]] system in ''Brawl'' makes this kind of button-mashing more useful as it allows automatic frame perfection.
