Jab reset

Jab resets is a technique in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee that is performed by jabbing an opponent while they are knocked down. The jab will force the opponent to get up. This only works at lower percentages with weaker attacks like jabs because higher knockback attacks will force the opponent into knockback. Unlike a normal get up from knockdown a Jab Reset does not have any invincibility frames. Jab resets can be used to continue a combo on an opponent even after a knockdown. This cannot be utilized in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, because characters do not stand up when they are hit by a weak attack, instead they get laser locked.
