Fox (SSBM)/Up smash

Overview

The hitbox of Fox's up smash.

Fox does a fast kick flip, doing 16% damage. It can also hit behind him with his foot, though this does extremely weaker knockback. Fox's up smash is considered to be the best up smash in the game by far. As Fox's most reliable finisher, it has very quick speed, very high vertical knockback, and decent range. It can reliably KO below 100% damage (KOing most characters in the 75% to 90% range), and it's the second most powerful uncharged up smash in the game behind Pikachu's. What makes Fox's up smash truly frightening, is Fox's multitude of options to combo into it. Waveshining combos directly into an up smash and Fox's fast dashing speed allows him to do a running, jump-canceled up smash to followup L-cancelled neutral aerials and back aerials. Against fastfallers, an uncharged up smash is often used as a followup to an up throw at low percentages, and at higher percentages, Fox can similarly combo into a charged up smash with an up throw.

During the first few frames, Fox's head (but not his snout) will be intangible.
