Grounded Enemy Tipper Up-Smash: G.E.T.U.S.

[MetaBhreat]

A cool title for a simple thread.

I noticed that there were times that when I went to punish, say, a whiffed F-smash by dashing in and Up-smashing, I would hit with the tipper hitbox of Up-smash. This made me curious, so I tested out which characters Sheik could hit with the tipper hitbox while the enemy was grounded. The characters it is possible to pull this off on are as follows:

Peach

Bowser

Yoshi

Rosalina

Bowser junior

Donkey kong

Link

Zelda

Sheik

Ganondorf

Samus

Zero Suit Samus

Pit

Palutena

Marth

Ike

Robin

King Dedede

Falco

R.O.B.

Captain Falcon

Wii Fit Trainer

Shulk

Dark Pit

Lucina

A few notes:
Yoshi and Donkey Kong have a bit of a special feature. Because of Yoshi's big nose and the way Donkey Kong leans forward, they require much less precision to sweetspot from the front.

All other character need to be almost directly lined up with Sheik in order to pull this off.

This was done with characters standing idle. The Sheik mains are interested enough, I will posts the test results of G.E.T.U.S. on walking or dashing opponents.

I did a thing, thanks for reading. Don't hesitate to ask any questions you have.

Hope you aren't about to make this a "technique" by giving it a name. But good info.
