Fox (SSB)/Back aerial

Overview

Hitboxes of Fox's back aerial.

Fox kicks behind himself while looking back, doing 12% damage and low knockback. It is a sex kick, so the move gets slightly weaker the longer it's out (though to a lesser extent compared to most sex kicks in the game), and has a high duration, yet comes out quickly (having fast startup). A combo-orientated move, being usable in many aerial and offstage combos, and a decent move for edgeguarding. Usually, it's used after an up tilt, or as a reverse back aerial after a forward aerial. It can also chain into itself and finish off with a up aerial or neutral aerial. Additionally, the late hit can be used in a short hop or after another aerial to setup a jab, up tilt, or up smash. It can also space to some extent if used on its own out of a short hop.
