A Beam Sword in SSB.

The Beam Sword is a long-range "clobbering weapon", similar in appearance to a lightsaber which is available in all three games. It can be wielded and charged for melee attacks or can be thrown. The Super Smash Bros. Melee Beam Sword is considerably weaker than it was in the original Super Smash Bros.. The length of Melee's Beam Sword changes depending on the character wielding it and the intensity of the attack performed. The beam sword's smash attack generally has the longest range of all beam sword strikes. In Melee and Brawl, it is possible for Peach to pull out a Beam Sword with her Vegetable attack, but this is incredibly rare. In its Brawl incarnation, the sword is blue, not pink.

  • When A is tapped, it does 7% damage.
  • As a tilt attack, it does 11% damage
  • When used as a smash attack, it does 15% damage and can be charged to do up to 20%.
  • When dropped, it does between 4-10% damage.
  • When thrown at the opponent, it does 15% damage.
  • In the original Japanese version of SSB, the Beam Sword sounded similar to a Light Saber from the Star Wars trilogy; and now in ssbb if they use this weapon
  • When held by either Link, Marth or Roy, the smash attack is a double smash; the character slashes with his regular sword and then takes a second stronger swipe with the Beam Sword.
  • When held by Captain Falcon, the forward smash it is a weak hit below and then a strong upwards hit that knocks opponents skyward
  • When held by Sheik, the forward smash is a very quick double hit, both upwards. The first hit is a bit stronger than Capt. Falcon’s, but the second is weaker than Capt. Falcon's second hit
  • When held by Mewtwo, a dashing A attack is around 5 spinning hits (around 20 damage). When he smashes with it, he slices it downwards.
  • The Beam Sword is pink in the first two games, but blue in Brawl.
  • In SSBM and SSBB the beam sword will change it's length when it is picked up or when it is used. In SSB, however, it is always the same length.

Description

"With its distinctive glowing blade, the Beam Sword is eye-catching and lethal. At first, the blade is about the size of a short sword, but the length changes depending on who wields it. The blade also lengthens in direct proportion to the power of an attack, so it reaches its maximum size when swung as a smash attack."

Game: Super Smash Bros. (04/99)
