Overview[edit]

Mario leaps into the air while repeatedly punching the opponent. The move hits up to 10 times, assuming all hits connect, and, due to the way staling works, does up to around 14%. It can angled by tilting the control stick: the further forward the control stick is tilted, the further Mario will go horizontally but at the cost of vertical movement. If the control stick is flicked backwards within the first few frames, Mario will B-reverse it and jump in the opposite direction.

The move is wholly unique in all of Melee, as it's the only up special that can be cancelled with a wall jump. If he's hugging a wall when he activates the move, Mario can wall jump near the apex of this move, which aids in his recovery; the window to perform the wall jump changes with the angle of the move: the shallower the angle, the greater the window to perform a wall jump. When performing the most horizontally-angled one, Mario gets a ³⁄₂₀ second window to perform a wall jump successfully; by contrast, when performing his extended up-B, Mario gets a window nearly half the size.

Timing[edit]

* The wall jump timings are dependent upon which angle the move has. They also assume the Mario player is hugging the wall; the window is smaller or nonexistent if the move is not started against a wall.
* Inputting a wall jump before it's possible for Mario to perform but still within the window will buffer it.
