Damageless Gimping Moves

[DailySparta]

Who do you think has the best moves that can keep an opponent from recovering without damaging them?
I personally think Mario, but I'd love to see what you guys think.

(Don't kill me if I missed one person who has like a windbox for one frame Ok)

Expand Dong's Tornado Punch

Seconding Storm Punch. That windbox is beyond insane. I managed to kill a Mewtwo standing on the god-damn platform of Dream Land with just the flipping wind. Granted, it was Mewtwo, a very light character, and at 110% too, but it still means that any character with a mediocre horizontal recovery won't make it back if pushed away at similar percentages.

Thirding Storm Punch as best.

Though there are some other strong windbox customs, like Ike's Tempest that are worth mentioning.

 

[Dokokashira]

Actually, technically, the Cape does do damage. Around 7% for both Mario and Dr. Mario.

I haven't experimented with (or unlocked most of) the custom specials, so I'll have to agree that I think F.L.U.D.D. is the best out of the poll options in terms of usability. In terms of Gfycatability, I'd vote for Palutena's smash windboxes.

 

[Wintropy]

Storm Punch. There is no alternative.

That said, Gust Cape / Breezy Sheet are also good choices.
