Universal

• Grounded to air ledge transition mechanics altered, affecting run offs and other momentum techniques; characters can no longer run off the edge of a platform while performing a special move.
• The height at which a defender will land on a platform during a throw's animation overlapping a platform has been increased, reducing the ability for this interaction to happen. Notable on Ganondorf's Flame Choke (can no longer force this on Battlefield platforms against any character) and Mewtwo's Confusion.

Bowser

• Up tilt's startup reduced by 1 frame, and has increased reach, now being able to hit opponents in front of Bowser. It also has 10 less frames of ending lag.
  • Up tilt's damage was reduced by 1%.

Captain Falcon

• Non-angled and up-angled forward smash have minimally increased knockback scaling, now KOing about 1-2% sooner.
  • Down-angled forward smash has minimally decreased knockback scaling, KOing about 1-2% later.
• Up's aerial sweetspot and middle hitboxes had their damage reduced by 2%, while its sourspot's damage was reduced by 1%. Its reduced knockback additionally makes the move a less reliable KO option.
  • The move's reduced knockback allows it to combo up to higher damages.

Charizard

• Charizard's jab transitions faster and can more reliably link all three hits. The final hit of the jab also has increased knockback scaling, and can now KO at very high damages around 175% before rage.
• Forward aerial has slightly larger hitboxes with increased reach. Its hitboxes also last for 1 more frame.
  • Forward aerial's knockback scaling on its sweetspot was minimally decreased, now KOing about 1-2% later.
• Up throw repurposed into a KO throw more effective than Charizard's old down throw, with significantly increased knockback scaling and a slightly more vertical knockback trajectory. Its knockback is of comparable power to Mewtwo's up throw, KOing from the center of Final Destination around 125% before DI and rage.
• Down throw repurposed into a combo throw more effective than Charizard's old up throw, with its knockback scaling drastically decreased, it now sending opponents at a vertical trajectory, and ending 8 frames faster. It can combo into up smash at very low damages, combo into forward aerial and Dragon Rush up to mid-high damages, and setup an up aerial and Fly.
