Back Slash (バックスラッシュ, Back Slash) is Shulk's side special move in SSB4.
Overview
Back Slash, although slow, has very high range. When using the move, Shulk performs a slash attack with the Monado. The amount of knockback inflicted increases if the move is used from behind the opponent. Though it appears to be very laggy, it is a powerful move to compensate.
Origin
Back Slash is one of Shulk's physical arts in Xenoblade Chronicles. If the move is used from behind, the enemy takes double the normal damage. Otherwise, it is treated like a normal attack.
