Ok, remember when we complained about Jig's bair in Melee?

Well, I think we have definitive evidence that the hitboxes of smash 4 can be even dumber than Melee's. Here are my favorites.

I have, on several occasions, been Focus Attacked even though I was behind Ryu, because hitboxes.

The tipper hitbox on Marth's forward smash has to be one of the most unfortunate, inconvenient, and just plain ******** placement of hit boxes in the entire game.

Some of Giga Bowser's hitboxes don't make much sense at all. The Bowser Bomb's landing hitbox is surprisingly small for such a gargantuan, and yet the u-smash's second set of hitboxes cover more distance.

Cloud everything, Bayo Up B and Mewtwo Nair are the main annoyances for me.

I tried out some size modifier codes in Brawl, and the hitboxes can potentially be quite nuts for the super huge fighters.

Then you'd be even more triggered by this,sheiks fair in melee was the size of fox.:

Oh and brawl dedede's hitboxes,range,speed,power,and duration were all silly but he wasn't broken,just a lot of his options were very nutty and overturned.

Hmm...what about :4miigun:'s down-smash? I've tinkered with this move for some time and it has a deceptively small hitbox. This move whiffs up close depending on who y'all fight. Sweet pizza! How can this move whiff when it has reach?

I never can understand how :4bowserjr:'s side-smash whiffs up close despite its otherwise good reach.

Ooh! Ooh! Let's not :4gaw:'s Judge when y'all sugar pies get a 9. I've been looking at hitboxes from Melee, and man, the hit area doesn't even cover half the hammer.
