However, it has excellent range and high knockback, making it a decent edge-guarding option, as it can stage spike edge-hanging opponents, reach distant offstage opponents, or even KO outright at the edge starting from 108%.

Each spin quickly loses power, but the final spin has slightly more range. The Smash Art grants the later hits KO potential, despite their weak power without any Monado Arts. It is usually impossible to connect more than one hit together unless Buster is active, in which case it will break full shields if an opponent is cornered at an edge and the first three hits land. Extremely useful for punishing rolls and sidesteps thanks to its multiple hitboxes and range, but suffers from the most overall lag out of Shulk's smash attacks because of its considerable start-up (hits on frame 18) and ending lag (41 frames).

Alternatively, holding forward while counterattacking on the ground causes a fast dashing slash that deals more damage and knockback growth in addition to launching opponents backward, but its speed and Shulk's momentum can cause it to occasionally miss its target. Previously one of the strongest counters in Smash 4, its knockback scaling has since been lowered and it has lost its unblockable properties, lowering its notorious power. Despite this, it now has no sweetspot or sourspot, making its damage consistent, and Monado Arts can affect the KO potential of the counterattack. As a downside, Vision loses counter frames if repeatedly used over a short period of time, making it and Witch Time the only counterattacks that lose effectiveness if spammed. Counter frames are regained over time or once Shulk is KO'd.

With no Arts active or any Art active aside from Buster, it lacks combo or KO potential because of its throw hitbox's base knockback and very low damage output. However, it is an excellent combo throw with Buster or Speed active, as it can follow up with down tilt or forward tilt at low to mid percents, forward smash, forward aerial or Air Slash at mid percents, and even start a KO combo into Air Slash or other attacks if Buster is buffer-canceled during the throw's animation.","video_file_url":""},"Down Tilt":{"character_key":"shulk","key":"Down Tilt","description":"A kneeling inward slash. Moderately slow for a tilt attack, but it has good range and the lowest amount of ending lag out of his entire moveset.

If it hits, Shulk summons Dunban, Riki, and Fiora to perform a Chain Attack on the opponent, which he then concludes with a powerful slash. Chain Attack's damage output and knockback are also affected by Monado Arts. However, it has a short range, as Shulk needs to be close to the opponent in order for its first hit to land. In addition, Arts can expire during the Chain Attack's cutscene, which affects its damage output and knockback.","video_file_url":""},"Forward Aerial":{"character_key":"shulk","key":"Forward Aerial","description":"A downward slash. It has the lowest amount of ending lag out of his aerials (24 frames) and low landing lag (10 frames), while its range grants it excellent coverage for an aerial, which makes it great for interrupting approaches and spacing. It is also a dependable combo option with either Speed or Buster active, and a powerful edge-guarding move, as it can easily cover their options (in Jump) or KO them outright while offstage at percents as low as 50% (with Smash). In Jump\/Speed\/Buster, it can allow Shulk to perform a wall of pain ending with Air Slash; this is a damage\/KO combo at certain percentages, which has been dubbed the \"Fair Slash\" combo by players.","video_file_url":""},"Forward Smash":{"character_key":"shulk","key":"Forward Smash","description":"A thrust, which causes the Monado to reveal its beam blade.

It is the fourth longest ranged non-projectile forward smash in the game, surpassed only by Simon\/Richter, Corrin, and the Mii Gunner. When coupled with its ability to be angled, it can hit opponents attempting to grab the edge. The Buster Art grants the move good shield-pressuring potential, as it can deplete half a shield. While near the edge of Final Destination, the non-angled blade\/beam KOs at 74%\/86%. However, the first hit's low priority makes it easily canceled by weak attacks, while the move's high ending lag (44 frames) makes it completely unsafe on shield.

Unlike the Smash 4 version, the hitboxes now match the trail until the end where the Monado retracts its beam blade. Its hitbox begins slightly behind Shulk's toes and continues all the way over his head, allowing the initial frames to start combos if an opponent misses a tech, the later frames being able to punish air dodges, and the final frames having approach-deterring utility. Overall, it is one of Shulk's defining moves, as it can start combos while Jump, Speed or Buster are active, which can lead into a grab, neutral attack, forward tilt, up tilt, aerials or Air Slash. It can also neutralize weak projectiles, such as those from Toon Link or Diddy Kong. However, its long-lasting hitbox and very high ending lag (46 frames) make it a very unsafe move to use off-stage when fast falling, as Shulk will be in serious danger of self-destructing.","video_file_url":""},"Neutral Attack":{"character_key":"shulk","key":"Neutral Attack","description":"A jab, followed by a full roundhouse kick then an upward slash.

The distance of the leap can be adjusted by holding left or right during the leap. True to its name, it deals more damage and has higher knockback if it hits the opponent's back: the blade\/beam hitbox will KO at around 74%\/88% at the edge. Conversely, the front hitbox is incapable of KOing till excessively high percents, unless in the Smash Art.

It is one of the most damaging up aerials in the game if both hits connect (sweetspot only); coupled with its second hit's high knockback growth, it is a fearsome (albeit difficult to land) KO option near the upper blast line. It also has the second lowest landing lag out of Shulk's aerials (9 frames), giving it some spammability if under a platform.

Without Arsene, the move KOs at around 76% from the edge of the stage, making it Joker's strongest finisher. However, its range is rather lacking due to the length of Joker's knife.

Due to its high amount of active frames and constant damage output, it is a potent edgeguarding tool. While Joker can recover with Grappling Hook even after using it from a full hop fast fall, it is risky to do so unless close to the stage's edge.

Ryu gains super armor that can withstand a single hit while it is charging. When fully charged, the attack becomes unblockable and will pierce through counterattacks. Ryu can also perform a technique called the Focus Attack Dash Cancel. This is performed by tapping left or right twice, which cancels Focus Attack and instead propels Ryu a set distance depending on where the control stick was tapped. The move's charge is indicated by Ryu flashing during its start-up. Level 1 is performed immediately and slightly launches an opponent. Level 2 is performed after half a second and crumples an opponent, but deals the least amount of damage. Level 3 is performed after a whole second, crumples the opponent for a much longer time and deals the most amount of damage. Although Focus Attack cannot block grabs and is countered by multiple hit attacks, it is a useful tool for baiting opponents and punishing, while its Dash Cancel can function as a horizontal recovery option while offstage.","video_file_url":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-moves\/Ryu%20-%20Down%20Special.m4v"},"Up Special":{"character_key":"ryu","key":"Up Special","description":"A leaping uppercut.

Aside from being his main vertical recovery move, Shoryuken is also a viable KOing option due to its fast start-up, especially when used in conjunction with Focus Attack.

As a result, it is an excellent tool in the neutral game, allowing Falco to put out a lasting hitbox with little risk of punishment. It is also a potent edgeguarding tool due to the meteor smash's sheer speed.

It is an overall effective move for aerial offense, as it can be used out of a short hop as a walling option, follow up into other moves, catch opponents out of shield, and KO offstage at around 90%. The looping hits use the autolink angle, allowing it to start combos while falling; however, the hits now transition faster, making this difficult to do consistently.

At mid percents, it can be followed up with Blaster to lock opponents who miss a tech.

As the grounded version moves opponents slightly towards Falco, it can be used to initiate combos. It is also an excellent horizontal recovery option, as it does not cause helplessness. However, it can only be used once in midair before landing, will cause Falco to stop in front of a shielding opponent, and has a predictable trajectory. As a result, it is easily punishable if used carelessly. Despite its looks, the hitbox stops short near the end of the move when Falco begins to slow down.

These factors make it an excellent aerial juggling tool, as it can knock opponents into the air for additional followups, including into itself.

Holding the button has Bayonetta fire her guns from her hands and feet; hitting anyone directly above or below, to her sides, and slightly diagonally under her. With precise timing (a 3 frame window to be exact), a Double Jump can be cancelled into Witch Twist, thereby saving her jump in a similar way to Smash 4. This drastically improves her combo game and enables some particularly powerful ladder combos, as well as some much needed recovery mix-ups. This can be executed with both the first and second Witch Twists (as long as the double jump is unused) only to use the double jump right after, essentially giving her a maximum of three midair jumps, though only one would reach the top of its arch.","video_file_url":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-moves\/Bayonetta%20-%20Up%20Special.m4v"},"Side Special":{"character_key":"bayonetta","key":"Side Special","description":"A kick that functions differently when used on the ground or in midair.

She will also fire the guns on her feet as she slides. It is her primary combo starter, due to the follow-up kick launching the opponent upward. She will however also be under considerable endlag, leaving her open to punishing. After Burner Kick: In the air, she alternately performs the After Burner Kick, which can be performed twice in a row as long as the first kick connects, unless shielded. It can be angled downward by two different methods: holding the control stick down before inputting the move (moving the stick in a quarter-circle), or by flicking the control stick down as soon as the move is inputted but before the move comes out. The second method takes strict timing: if not done correctly, she will end up doing the standard After Burner Kick. If the button is held for the standard version, Bayonetta will fire the guns on her feet (one slightly upward, and one slightly downward). Both versions of After Burner Kick are her primary aerial follow-ups.

In both versions of the move, the descending headbutt hits multiple times, and acts as a meteor smash. If the grounded version is used as a sacrificial KO, the opponent will be KO'd first. The grounded hit is very powerful and can KO consistently at 120%, though it is extremely risky due to its overall lag.

Similarly to Zero Suit Samus's Flip Jump, by landing on an opponent midair during the jump, the Brawler will automatically perform a kick which meteor smashes foes.

Very damaging and strong for an unchargeable projectile, which makes for a useful edgeguarding tool.  Custom 1 - Flashing Mach Punch: The Brawler performs five fast punches with a single hand. If any of these punches land, the move will extend into a flurry of consecutive punches, the maximum total being 22. The last hit deals good vertical knockback, KOing at around 115%. If the move lands on an opponent, the Brawler gains invincibility for the duration of the move, making the move hard to interrupt.

If whiffed, there is noticeable endlag. In the air, even after attacking, Onslaught leaves the Brawler helpless. It has excellent KO potential, as it can KO grounded opponents as early as 110%. However, whenever the move is successful, each consecutive use of the move will cause its power to decrease. Onslaught will go back to full power after some time, indicated by a brief flash of purple sparkles on the Brawler's shoes. Despite in-game descriptions, accumulated damage doesn't affect the strength of the move, nor does it hasten the reset speed.  Custom 1 - Burning Dropkick: Extends both legs in front of themself, charging forward to deliver a dropkick while covered with flames. Unlike the previous iteration of this move, it is no longer chargable, so it deals set damage. Furthermore, it now covers a set, albeit vastly reduced distance, and can now miss entirely if started right next to an opponent. As a result, it has lost majority of its utility from Smash 4, though it is still an effective approach move due to its quick startup, and can also KO at high percents.  Custom 2 - Suplex:A command grab in which the Brawler dashes forward a short distance with their arms out in a grabbing motion. If it connects, the Brawler will lift the opponent into the air and do a backwards suplex, slamming the opponent headfirst into the ground. The Brawler gains super armor while throwing an opponent.

Both hits transition quickly, and the landing hit has enough knockback to KO at around 120% near the edge of Final Destination.  Custom 1 - Helicopter Kick: Performs a flurry of spinning kicks while traveling diagonally upward, similar to Fox's forward aerial. The trajectory of Helicopter Kick's final hit can be altered: holding forward will make its knockback diagonal, while holding back will make its knockback more vertical. This allows the Brawler to choose how to launch the opponent. Allows for long horizontal recovery, but lacks vertical lift. While it is still an excellent combo finisher out of aerials or a throw, it is unable to KO extremely early near the sides of the stage.  Custom 2 - Thrust Uppercut: The Brawler rises upwards with a multi-hitting uppercut, at a slight diagonal trajectory. The uppercut is followed by a second uppercut with the opposite fist. By angling during the ascent, it is possible to travel further horizontally, though the move has deceptively low recovery distance due to the move's animation.

As of the 2.0.0 patch, neutral aerial's landing lag is low enough for the weak hit to true combo into a multitude of moves, including neutral attack, Thrust Uppercut and Head-On Assault at low percents, or down tilt or Helicopter Kick at mid percents.

A second press of the special move button will have the flip kick followed up by a meteor-smashing axe kick. The move will snap to ledges during the rising portion, and can also snap during the downward kick after a bit of travel time. Both hits transition quickly, and the landing hit has enough knockback to KO at around 120% near the edge of Final Destination.  Custom 1 - Helicopter Kick: Performs a flurry of spinning kicks while traveling diagonally upward, similar to Fox's forward aerial. The trajectory of Helicopter Kick's final hit can be altered: holding forward will make its knockback diagonal, while holding back will make its knockback more vertical. This allows the Brawler to choose how to launch the opponent. Allows for long horizontal recovery, but lacks vertical lift. While it is still an excellent combo finisher out of aerials or a throw, it is unable to KO extremely early near the sides of the stage.  Custom 2 - Thrust Uppercut: The Brawler rises upwards with a multi-hitting uppercut, at a slight diagonal trajectory. The uppercut is followed by a second uppercut with the opposite fist. By angling during the ascent, it is possible to travel further horizontally, though the move has deceptively low recovery distance due to the move's animation. Like Helicopter Kick, Thrust Uppercut is a reliable combo finisher due to its speed, though its trajectory is more suitable for ending vertical combos.

It is one of the few down smashes that does not hit on both sides, but it is powerful nonetheless, and has the highest knockback scaling out of Mewtwo's entire moveset. While it has noticeable startup at frame 21, its ending lag relative to its power and startup is very low, being able to interupt after 22 frames. As such, it is safe on shield, and can be spammed rather safely. As a result, Mewtwo's down smash is one of its most viable KOing options.","video_file_url":""},"Down Special":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Down Special","description":"Emits a minuscule spark of psychic energy from its eyes toward the opponent, stunning them.

Useful at high percentages to guarantee a KO, but difficult to land. Due to being a projectile, Disable can also be reflected.","video_file_url":""},"Down Throw":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Down Throw","description":"Telekinetically slams the opponent to the ground, and then somersaults in order to strike them with its tail.

Due to it hitting on frame 6 and having low ending lag, it is Mewtwo's fastest tilt, which allows it to function as a good out of shield option. It is also Mewtwo's best combo starter. As a result, it can combo into an up tilt, a dashing up smash, neutral aerial, forward aerial, and up aerial.","video_file_url":""},"Final Smash":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Final Smash","description":"Mega Evolves into Mega Mewtwo Y and performs Psystrike, its signature move in the Pok\u00e9mon games. Psystrike is a powerful sphere of psychic energy that plows through both opponents and walls, and any opponent caught will be stunned before being launched by an intense, mind-shattering blow. Incredible power, KOing at around 50% from center stage.","video_file_url":""},"Forward Aerial":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Forward Aerial","description":"A dark energy-infused swipe. Due to it hitting on frame 7, it is tied with neutral aerial for having the lowest amount of start-up lag out of Mewtwo's aerial attacks. When coupled with its respectable damage output and high knockback scaling, it is one of Mewtwo's most viable KOing options. It also boasts combo potential at low percentages, as it can also combo into itself, or be used as a follow-up from down tilt or neutral aerial. Due to its very fast speed, versatility at a wide range of percentages (boasting combo and KO potential at low and high percentages, respectively), and decent range, it is a staple in Mewtwo's neutral game and moveset, and it is not uncommon for it to be considered one of the best forward aerials in the game.","video_file_url":""},"Forward Smash":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Forward Smash","description":"Quickly cups its hands to its side, and then thrusts them forward to perform a double palm thrust that emits a blast of dark energy.

As a result, it is very useful for disrupting opponents, as Mewtwo has full control over its aerial movement during the attack.

It has impressive utility, courtesy of it functioning as a reflector, a command grab, and even a potential recovery option. As a grab, the ripple spins opponents around and leaves them tumbling downward, dropping them in front of Mewtwo and allows it to follow-up with other attacks. As a recovery option, its first use in midair gives Mewtwo a slight vertical boost, although it halts most of its horizontal momentum.","video_file_url":""},"Up Aerial":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Up Aerial","description":"Backflips to swing its tail in an overhead arcing motion, similarly to its up tilt.

A great recovery move due to its aforementioned intangibility as well as travelling a long, safe distance.","video_file_url":""},"Up Throw":{"character_key":"mewtwo","key":"Up Throw","description":"Telekinetically whirls the opponent around itself before launching them upward above its head.

It is able to KO middleweights from as low as 50% when initiated from the edge.","video_file_url":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-moves\/Mii%20Swordfighter%20-%20Up%20Special.m4v"}},"advantages":[],"disadvantages":[]},"78":{"id":78,"key":"mii-gunner","name":"Mii Gunner","portrait_image":"","thumbnail_image":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-thumbnails\/Mii%20Gunner%20-%20Thumbnail.png","series_image":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-series\/Super%20Smash%20Bros..svg","difficulty":"Easy","primary_fighting_style":"Projectile","attribute_ratings":{"Damage":2,"Kill Power":3,"Defense":3,"Speed":2,"Neutral":3,"Taunt":2,"Weight":4,"Recovery":3},"move_set":{"Back Aerial":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Back Aerial","description":"Releases a burst of flames from the arm cannon behind themself.

It can KO at extremely high percentages, but the laser can be avoided with DI.","video_file_url":""},"Dash Attack":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Dash Attack","description":"Performs a swinging punch with the arm cannon, blasting the enemy with flames. Grants a lot of forward momentum overall, allowing it to punish distant foes. Starts on frame 10 and has good knockback, KOing Mario from the edge of Final Destination at 115%, but it has punishable ending lag.","video_file_url":""},"Down Aerial":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Down Aerial","description":"The Gunner pauses, then fires a single burst of flame below themself. The burst itself deals more damage and is a very strong, aerial-only meteor smash. However, the meteor hitbox only lasts for one frame, and turns into a weaker non-meteor smashing hitbox one frame later. As a result, it is difficult to land.","video_file_url":""},"Down Smash":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Down Smash","description":"Fires two bursts of flame onto the ground, first in front then behind of themself. Each flame burst launches opponents away, though the second one has significantly more knockback than the first. The first hit starts on frame 9, making it the Gunner's fastest smash attack. Both hits have deceptively high range, especially the second hit. The second hit uses the combined damage of the Gunner's previous down smash, which connected into each other; as a result, it has very high KO power, KOing Mario from the edge of Final Destination at 66%.","video_file_url":""},"Down Special":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Down Special","description":"Default - Echo Reflector: Activates an energy shield composed of two yellow hexagons that rotate around the Mii Gunner. Reflects projectiles at 1.5x their original strength. Despite its appearance, projectiles from above will also be reflected.\r  Custom 2 - Bomb Drop: Drops a small bomb that bounces off the ground and explodes either upon contact with an enemy, or after a set time (134 frames, or roughly 1.6 seconds). Functions similarly to Samus's Bombs, but with more damage and knockback. Inputting the move again causes the bomb to automatically detonate while dropping another bomb, making it difficult for opponents to approach the Gunner. It is overall a useful stage control move, as it can block opposing projectiles, trap opponents at ledges, and can even KO at around 170%. However, opponents can knock the bomb away with their own attacks, and the bomb will harm the Mii Gunner while it is knocked around.\r  Custom 3 - Absorbing Vortex: Covers themself with a glowing energy shield that absorbs energy projectiles and converts its damage to healing, similarly to Ness's PSI Magnet. Heals 1.4x the damage the Gunner would have taken. Upon activation, as well as when absorbing projectiles, any nearby opponents will take slight damage. This hitbox is capable of locking.","video_file_url":""},"Down Throw":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Down Throw","description":"Slams the enemy onto the ground, launching them upward. Can start combos into aerials till mid percents, though it quickly loses effectiveness. Unlike in SSB4, down throw is no longer completely identical in function to Marth's equivalent move.","video_file_url":""},"Down Tilt":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Down Tilt","description":"Fires a burst of flame onto the ground in front of themself, similarly to Samus's down tilt. Like up tilt, it is fast for its damage (frame 8) and is the Gunner's most damaging tilt, but has such high ending lag that it has no followups. As a result, it is mostly used to punish grounded openings, in comparison to the anti-air strengths of up tilt. Despite its higher damage, it KOs slightly later than up tilt, doing so only at 141%.","video_file_url":""},"Final Smash":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Final Smash","description":"The Gunner shoots a strong laser, with two small laser cannons firing smaller lasers that circle the main laser. Can be angled during the move. The middle of the laser does slightly more damage than the beginning. The Final Smash also does more damage if angled (as the opponent will be hit by both the big and small lasers).","video_file_url":""},"Forward Aerial":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Forward Aerial","description":"Fires a single weak energy shot projectile; the force of the shot pushes the Mii Gunner backward. Though its range was shortened from Smash 4, it has reduced ending lag, which makes it better for performing combos. If used while close to the ground (the energy projectile hitting the opponent just before the Gunner lands), the Gunner will be able to act almost immediately upon landing.","video_file_url":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-moves\/Mii%20Gunner%20-%20Forward%20Aerial.m4v"},"Forward Smash":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Forward Smash","description":"Unleashes a series of energy bursts in quick succession, followed by a stronger burst. Hits opponents 7 times and has tremendous range, being one of the longest forward smashes in the game (surpassed only by the Belmonts and Corrin). Coupled with its very long hitbox duration, it is overall difficult to challenge, pressures shields well, and is useful for edgeguarding. It is safe on shield at max distance due to its decently low ending lag. For its strengths, it also has reliable KO potential, KOing at center-stage from 122%. However, it is the Gunner's slowest smash attack (frame 17).","video_file_url":""},"Forward Throw":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Forward Throw","description":"Punches the enemy away with the arm cannon.","video_file_url":""},"Forward Tilt":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Forward Tilt","description":"Fires a short range energy burst. The burst deals more damage up close. The Mii Gunner's fastest ground move, and is much faster in comparison to the version in Smash 4. However, it is also weak, as it KOs Mario on the edge of Final Destination at around 143%. As such, it is more effective as a spacing or \"get-off-me\" option.","video_file_url":""},"Grab":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Grab","description":"The Gunner reaches in front of themself with their left hand.","video_file_url":""},"Neutral Aerial":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Neutral Aerial","description":"Sweeps their arm cannon downward in an arc around themself. It is the Gunner's fastest aerial (frame 8), and has a high amount of active frames alongside good coverage. At low percents (especially against super heavyweight characters), a neutral aerial on grounded opponents can lead to a neutral combo, forward tilt, dash attack, forward smash, and up smash. However, its high base knockback makes followups almost impossible at mid-percents unless it is a projectile. As a result, it is mostly an aerial \"get-off-me\" option, and is useful for landing since it has 11 frames of landing lag.","video_file_url":""},"Neutral Attack":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Neutral Attack","description":"A jab with their left hand, followed by a spin kick, and an explosion from their arm cannon. Holding the attack button will have the Gunner repeat the jab. The first two hits can lock floored opponents. The third hit consists of two hits, one from the cannon and one from the explosion; both hits easily lead into each other, unlike the version in Smash 4.","video_file_url":""},"Neutral Special":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Neutral Special","description":"Default - Charge Blast: Charges and fires a large energy sphere. The Mii Gunner can charge the blast in midair, and charge cancel by jumping or using an air dodge. Pressing any attack button while charging will fire the sphere. It is the Gunner's strongest projectile special move, with a fully-charged shot being capable of KOing from center-stage at 105%. Uncharged versions can lock floored opponents.\r  Custom 1 - Laser Blaze: Fires spammable green energy pellets that cause flinching. Similar to Falco's Blaster, but fires at a slightly slower rate while inflicting slightly more damage. It does not lose strength while traveling, making it a useful damage racker. The lasers can also lock floored opponents.\r  Custom 2 - Grenade Launch: After a pause, the Mii Gunner fires a grenade from their arm cannon. The grenade travels in an arc and will weakly bounce once on the ground, traveling almost half the distance of Final Destination. The grenade will explode around one second after launch, or detonate on impact with enemies, dealing multiple hits with a final launching hit. The grenade does a lot of damage if it all hits connect (12.2%) and can KO at around 138%. The Mii Gunner can maneuver in the air while preparing to fire the grenade. It is overall a useful move for covering and limiting movement options, or edgeguarding recovering opponents; coupled with its low ending lag, it can start low percent combos or constantly deter approaches.","video_file_url":""},"Side Special":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Side Special","description":"Default - Flame Pillar: Fires an energy shot diagonally down that erupts into a pillar of flame that lingers for a few moments. The pillar, similar to Robin's Arcfire, hits multiple times, with the last hit launching opponents away. If used in midair, the projectile's angle is more diagonal and travels further. The pillar will slowly drift downwards if it hits an aerial opponent, allowing it to function as an edgeguard if it hits an enemy near a ledge. It is otherwise a useful deterring tool, and can start combos from careless approaches.\r  Custom 1 -  Stealth Burst: Fires a small shining energy shot that detonates when the button is released, similarly to Zelda's Din's Fire but only traveling straight. As the name suggests, Stealth Burst is very hard to telegraph due to how small its particle effect is, making it useful for mindgames and edgeguarding. Holding the button gives the shot more distance and power before detonating. Using it in the air will slow the Gunner's fall speed momentarily. All charge levels have KO potential, with no-charge\/fully-charged Stealth Bursts KOing at around 133%\/110%. However, its hitbox is rather small, especially if uncharged.\r  Custom 2 - Gunner Missile: Functions like Samus's Missile: holding the button will fire a homing missile, and inputting like a smash attack fires a super missile. Each missile travels a different distance, with the homing variant traveling more than half of Final Destination, and the super variant traveling almost the stage's full length. The homing missiles have decent homing capabilities, while the super missiles speed up after an initial pause and have good KO potential, able to KO Mario at the edge of Final Destination from 120%. The super missile can combo into Charge Blast if both are fired one after another against an opponent at medium distance. Due to the super missile's high shield damage and shieldstun, this combo performed with a fully charged Charge Blast will break a full shield if the initial super missile is shielded.","video_file_url":""},"Up Aerial":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Up Aerial","description":"Unleashes a series of energy bursts upwards in quick succession, followed by a stronger burst. Acts like the Gunner's forward smash aimed vertically upwards. Unlike in Smash 4, it now deals less hits but more damage, and can complete in a short hop, making it less awkward to use. However, the attack still cuts off abruptly if the Gunner lands before the final shot is used. A good juggling tool and KO move if the final hit connects at height, and can limit the aerial options of opponents or force them to air dodge. Up aerial's looping hits can also combo into other moves when landing, such as into up tilt as a KO combo.","video_file_url":""},"Up Smash":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Up Smash","description":"Releases five bursts of fire in an arc above her head, similarly to Samus's up smash. Starts on frame 11 and deals good damage. Due to the Gunner's height, it is more consistent with hitting grounded opponents compared to Samus's up smash. Like in Smash 4, opponents may fall out of the looping hits if they are at an extremely high percent, are hit by the sides of the explosion's hitboxes, or while they are standing on a platform above the Gunner. KOs Mario on Final Destination at 122%.","video_file_url":""},"Up Special":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Up Special","description":"Default - Lunar Missile: The Gunner fires a flaming projectile beneath itself, launching into the air from the recoil. Grants excellent vertical height but passable horizontal momentum. The projectile itself explodes on contact with solid ground and other opponents, and launches foes in the opposite direction from where the Gunner is facing. The projectile is able to KO at the edge of Final Destination from 130%.  Custom 1 - Cannon Jump Kick: Fires a concussive blast, then propels themselves with the arm cannon while kicking into the air. A sweetspotted concussive blast can meteor smash midair opponents. The kick itself is extremely powerful and the clean hit lasts for most of the move; coupled with it starting on frame 6 and granting intangibility on the same frame, it is an excellent out of shield option. KOs as early as 115% onstage. However, it is extremely ineffective for recovery, as it covers the lowest vertical distance out of all the Mii Gunner's up specials.  Custom 2 - Arm Rocket: Propels themself with a stream of flames from their arm cannon. By holding the Control Stick in a direction, the Mii Gunner can travel more horizontally. During flight, tilting left or right will adjust the Mii's flight angle. Overall, the move grants the most distance and maneuverability out of all the Gunner's up specials.","video_file_url":"https:\/\/d17galhwha3ary.cloudfront.net\/assets\/games\/super-smash-bros-ultimate\/character-moves\/Mii%20Gunner%20-%20Up%20Special.m4v"},"Up Throw":{"character_key":"mii-gunner","key":"Up Throw","description":"Tosses the enemy above themselves, then fires 2 energy pellets at the foe.

Its first frame is highlighted by a spark, which acts as a sweetspot that possesses a flame effect and deals significant shield damage. Its sourspot also makes it useful for aerial protection, thanks to its respectable damage output, high knockback scaling, and hitbox placement. However, it has the highest amount of ending lag out of his grounded moves. Despite its appearance, it also only hits in front of Little Mac, but it reaches high enough to challenge opponents standing on the bottom platforms of Battlefield. It also grants super armor on frames 8-11.","video_file_url":""},"Up Special":{"character_key":"little-mac","key":"Up Special","description":"A right-handed, jumping corkscrew uppercut, followed immediately by a left-handed uppercut. The first uppercut hits multiple times, whereas the second uppercut hits once and has extremely high knockback. Thanks to Little Mac's excellent traction, it is a very potent out of shield option, and is also one of his only reliable aerial finishers aside from Jolt Haymaker. It also grants 3 frames of intangibility on start-up, while the grounded version covers a decent amount of vertical distance. Conversely, the aerial version is half as effective at covering vertical distance and granting maneuverability compared to the grounded version, which make it extremely ineffective for recovery. It appears to be based on Little Mac's Three-Star Punch in the Wii version of Punch-Out!!","video_file_url":""},"Up Throw":{"character_key":"little-mac","key":"Up Throw","description":"An uppercut.

It covers the entirety of Little Mac's body, which allows him to use it as a quick option to punish overhead attacks or rolls. It is Little Mac's best combo initiator in general due to its anti-rebounding priority, low knockback and speed. The back hit combos better due to Mac having less endlag after. Combos include itself at low percents, and Rising Uppercut or KO Uppercut at low\/mid percents if the opponent is close to him. It can also lead into tilts or smash attacks depending on an opponent's reaction. It resembles Don Flamenco's Twirling Backhand used during Title Defense Mode in the Wii version of Punch-Out!!, albeit performed vertically instead of horizontally.","video_file_url":""}},"featured_moves":{"Down Smash":{"character_key":"little-mac","key":"Down Smash","description":"Spins 180\u00b0 to throw a quick, downward angled right hook in each direction.

It deals powerful vertical knockback that KOs Mario at 102%, allowing it to finish off fighters with poor vertical endurance. It also grants super armor on frames 8-15.   Forward: A cross. It has the highest knockback scaling out of all three punch variations, KOing Mario from center-stage at 89%. This makes it the most reliable out of the three in regard to KOing. It also grants super armor on frames 8-15.   Down: A body hook. It deals the most damage out of all three punch variations, but its extremely low knockback scaling makes it unusable for KOing. Its high shieldstun makes it safer on shield than the other two punch variations, and it deals heavy shield damage, allowing it to deplete more than half a shield.

The rising and descending hits have set knockback, with the descending hit having extremely high base knockback; this is capable of gimping opponents even at 0% for a sacrificial KO, with Incineroar always being KO'd after its opponent. Incineroar's descending body hitbox is similarly powerful, KOing at 75% from the edge of Final Destination, with the explosion being almost as powerful. However, the move has high ending lag.
