(What are you talking about? Melee F smash? This move doesn't hold a candle to that. It's like Falcon's F smash but without the power.)

Falco brings his arms down in a chopping manner. The move deals 10% if the hands connects and deals 15% if his arms connect. The move is Falco' strongest attack knockback wise, killing at around 130% but despite its power, the move is very sluggish, hitting on frame 16, and must be sweetspotted for efficient KOs. The move thus often necessitates a [[mindgame|hard read]] to be used effectively and as such players often turn to Falco's up smash for more guaranteed punishes.


Falco quickly brings both his arms down on the opponent. Uncharged, it does 10% damage non-tipped, 15% damage tipped. Fully charged, it does 15% damage non-tipped, and 21% damage tipped.
This is Falco's most powerful move (barring {{h1|Landmaster|Falco}}), being able to [[KO]] at lower than 125% uncharged. Combined with its low startup, this makes it one of the most feared moves in the game. It can be used as a followup to his {{mvsub|Falco|SSBB|neutral attack|alt=jab}}, or after a succesful group of [[jab reset]]s.

*Much like Falco having the strongest [[forward smash]] of the three ''{{uv|Star Fox}}'' characters, {{SSBB|Wolf}} has the strongest [[down smash]], and {{SSBB|Fox}} has the strongest [[up smash]].
