Ganondorf (SSBB)/Forward aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Ganondorf's forward aerial.

OverviewEdit

Ganondorf punches using his fist downwards. The sweetspot at the fist has very decent power making it perfect for edgeguards and the sourspot at the arm having useless power when using it center-stage.

The move has slow startup and it interestingly cannot be auto-cancelled until frame 55, this was due to a coding error and because of the error it would led to Ganondorf having large landing lag after using the move.

Despite having a large auto-cancel window, large landing lag and slow startup, it remains of one Ganondorf’s best moves.

TimingEdit

AttackEdit

Initial autocancel	1-6
Hitboxes	14-19
Ending autocancel	55-
Interruptible*	55
Animation length	59

* The move should become interruptible on frame 45 but due to the late auto-cancel window, it cannot be interrupted until frame 55. The developers most likely intended the move to be auto-cancellable from frame 36 but due to a timing error, it cannot be auto-cancelled until frame 55. This would not be fixed until Ultimate version 2.0.0 although in later games, it no longer delays when the move can be interrupted.
