Meta Knight slashes behind himself three times. It is a potent move offstage, thanks to its quick start-up, long duration and range, and incredibly high knockback growth, and the fact that the autolink angle ensures it connects reliably. One of his few moves that has been arguably buffed overall, having been inferior to his other options in Brawl. It's worth noting that the second slash has a meteor effect. If an opponent is knocked onto the ground with it, it is possible to get a jab-lock with three down tilts. At KO percents, the second hit of back aerial can be used to set up a forward smash or grounded Shuttle Loop. The move's high power gives it KO potential onstage as well.
