Timing

The move can be automatically repeated by holding the attack button, and Steve can jump during it. Unlike other aerials, this move lacks traditional landing lag or autocancels; upon landing, Steve instead transitions into his neutral attack or forward tilt, which continue from the latest frame with their own properties, much like air-to-ground transitions for special moves.

Trivia

• Steve has a landing lag value of 6 frames coded for his neutral aerial in his character files, which is never used due to its unique properties.
