Byleth (SSBU)/Forward aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Byleth's forward aerial.

Overview

Swings Areadbhar horizontally forward. A decent spacing tool that is fairly safe if spaced at the tip and fast-fallen. The tip has decent horizontal knockback, whereas the shaft is overall weak in comparison. Has the lowest ending lag and landing lag of Byleth's aerial attacks, and is the only one that can autocancel in a short hop. Deals 12.75% at the tip and 8.5% at the shaft.
