The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

Overview

The hitbox of Captain Falcon's uair.

Captain Falcon does a flip kick in the air. A very versatile attack, being very useful for combos, and on par with Pikachu's uair for being the best aerial attack in the game. Depending on what part of the hitbox hits, it can send the opponent at different angles. The heel hits them up, with the largest hitbox, and can be chained into itself with a Falcon Dive, dair, or even a Falcon Punch as a finisher (this part of the attack is the best for combos); the mid-section of the leg hits them forward, with a medium-sized hitbox; the mid-section of the leg while moving back hits them backwards at an angle, again with a medium-sized hitbox; the back of his foot/the heel hits them at a 180 degree angle backwards, with a small hitbox and semi-spike properties, meaning that it can be useful for edgeguarding; and his shoulder hits them at a 180 degree angle forwards, again being a semi-spike, but being incredibly difficult to time and land. A view of the hitboxes can be seen to the right.
