Ganondorf (SSB4)/Up tilt

Overview

Ganondorf holds his leg up and preforms an axe kick that produces an deadly explosion, nicknamed as the Volcano Kick. It has three different hitboxes: on the leg, on the middle of the explosion, and end of the explosion. The hitbox on his leg is the sweetspot, dealing the most damage and knockback while the hitbox on the explosion is the sourspot, dealing the least damage and knockback. On frames 6-70 it produces a vacuum effect that sucks opponents towards Ganondorf, helping him land the move. It has deceptively large range, making it good for edge-guarding. The sweetspot is incredibly powerful, being able to KO at low percents at the ledge, and can instantly break full shields on hit. However, it has incredibly long start-up, with a total of 81 frames making it a very risky but highly rewarding move.
