 [[File:Runoffteleport.gif|thumb|{{SSBM|Mewtwo}} quickly edgehogging in ''Melee'' by running off the stage and using [[Teleport]] in the opposite direction to grab the [[edge]].]]
-'''Edge-hogging''' is a tactic in the first three games of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, where a character holds onto a [[ledge]] so that a [[recovery|recovering]] opponent cannot grab it, taking advantage of the fact that only one character may generally hold onto a ledge at a time. Casually oriented players tend to dislike the tactic and will often claim it to be '[[cheap]]', while competitive oriented players see the technique as legitimate, being fully combatable, and agree that it is a critical part of recovery disruption.
