Ganondorf's forward aerial, often nicknamed the '''Skull Crusher''', involves him performing a rather quick punch in front of himself with high knockback, dealing 17% damage. This move is commonly used in Ganondorf's [[metagame]], due to its power, good [[range]], and lack of a [[sour spot]]. It can easily cover various [[tech]] and getup options from opponents on platforms above Ganondorf due to its range, and is also especially useful on stages with close [[blast line]]s such as [[Yoshi's Story]]. The move's speed is on par with the {{mvsub|Captain Falcon|SSBM|forward aerial|alt=Knee Smash}} (having 1 frame less [[ending lag]]), though it has lower power and slower [[startup]], albeit much larger range.
