Hitbox visualization showing Ganondorf's up smash.

Overview

Ganondorf performs an upward kick. While this move has sluggish startup (coming out on frame 21), it has deceptive horizontal range (though still much shorter than Snake's notorious up tilt) and is able to hit much lower than its animation suggests. It has surprisingly low ending lag for an attack of its type; this makes the move very hard to punish, fairly safe on shield for an attack of its type, and enables it to potentially combo into another move. On top of its aforementioned strengths, it also has decent KO power as well. This makes it one of Ganondorf's best moves overall, much like in SSB4.
