Smash attack (move): Difference between revisions

A '''smash attack''' is a special technique used by every character in all [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' games]]. When the player tilts the Control Stick very quickly and presses the A Button at the same time, they will use a very powerful attack that can cause massive damage to their opponents, and usually launches them. Starting in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' onwards, if the player holds the A Button, they will charge up the attack, making the smash attack even more powerful. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', there is an option to do a "Shake Smash" with the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] and [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]], which by shaking the Wii Remote, the character will perform a quick, uncharged smash attack on an opponent. The damage multiplier of charged smash attacks in ''Super Smash Melee'' is 1.3761x the regular damage; from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl '' onwards, the multiplier is 1.4x. Some characters have the ability to angle their forward smashes upwards and downwards.
