  • Luigi: The same as Mario's with longer range. 12% clean, 8% late.
  • Peach: Bashes her bottom backwards. One of her few KO moves. 13-14% clean, 7% late. Deals 20-21% damage if she performs Float Double Aerial, but it is difficult to land both hits at high percentage.
  • Bowser: Forces his shell backwards. 15% clean, 7% late.
  • Donkey Kong: A simple backwards kick. Moderately long duration, great range and powerful. 13% clean, 8% late.
  • Diddy Kong: A fast turnaround motion with his leg stuck out. 9%
  • Yoshi: Flips his tail up and down. Lots of damage given if all hits connect. 14%
  • Wario: Falls over in the air. Can be used to fly as Wario-Man. 10%
  • Link: Two backward kicks. Very fast. Relatively weak, but surprisingly high priority and 1st kick hitting grounded opponents combos into several of his moves. 11% if all hit connects.
  • Zelda: Lightning Kick. She jabs her heel behind her giving an extremely powerful initial, electricity-imbued attack for the first hitbox is sweetspotted. The second hitbox is very weak. 20% if sweetspotted. 4% when sourspotted.
  • Sheik: Extends her leg backward very fast, the hitbox stays out long. The sweetspot is on her foot. One of her few KO moves.11% in few frames. 6% during the rest.
  • Ganondorf: Punches backward. Very similar to Captain Falcon's, but instead of having a long duration it has a large hitbox with a large sweetspot but fairly long landing lag. 16%
  • Toon Link: Slashes backwards with his sword. It can be chained at low percents and be used as a KO move at higher percents. One of the best combos in the entire game with unbelievable priority. Even more priority than Mr. Game & Watch's Back Air Attack. 10%
  • Samus: A backward kick. The sweetspot is on her foot, otherwise it's weak. 14% if sweetspotted. 10% if sourspotted.

  • R.O.B.: Pushes boosters behind himself. Moves him forward decent knockback. 11%

  • Ivysaur: Spins around with vines extended. Low damage and very low knockback, but excellent range. 5%
  • Charizard: Spins around surprisingly quickly with tail extended and wings slightly extended. 2 possible hits, one with wings and one with tail. Decent knockback on tail hit, wing hit will always link into tail hit. Has a sweetspot on the fire, but it's hard to sweetspot as it has a small size. 7% damage. 16% when hit with all attacks and sweetspotted.
  • Lucario: Punches backwards. Aura extends from palm. 8% at minimum power and 16% at maximum power.
  • Jigglypuff: Spins around with foot extended to about twice its regular size. Used for the wall of pain. 12%
  • Marth: Similar to Toon Link's in animation, Marth thrusts his sword upwards. However, this attack is notable because it turns him around. When tipped, this attack can KO around 150%. 11% base, 14% tip.
  • Ike: A quick spin with sword extended. Powerful, can be auto canceled in short hops (it misses against smaller characters and very fast start-up but it has a very long cooldown like all of his aerials and moveset in general. 14%
  • Ness: Plugs backwards with both heels. Initial hitbox quite powerful with electrical properties, second hitbox fairly weak, although buffed from Melee. It is a very powerful move. 15% sweetspotted, 8% normal.
  • Lucas: Flips and hooks his foot downward. Can meteor smash at a certain angle (on the tip of Lucas's foot). Can KO at low percentages. 10% if sourspotted, 7% during last frames, 12% if sweetspotted.
  • Mr. Game and Watch: Snapping turtle, hits multiple times and has incredible priority, however it can be SDIed out of and be punished before the move has ended. Eats through shields. Last hit can be powershielded, but is very difficult to perform. 15% if all hits connect.
  • Snake: Kicks backward with both feet, body becomes horizontal. Large duration and high knockback (although it deals the same damage, his body has slightly more knockback than his legs), but has a fairly long cooldown and 30 frames landing lag. Doesn't auto cancel in short hops. Very high priority and disjointed hitbox. 14%. Does 16% when sweetspotted. 10% if the later hitbox is landed.
  • Sonic: Similar to Diddy Kong's, he spins around with his foot extended. One of his few KO moves. 14%
