The only know i know of is his down+a inside the air. I don't bash it down through, this gives me enough time to recover and get back to safety.

im pretty sure every char has 1 spike. there are other moves that can act as a spike if there is a high percent of damage but i dont think those can be consisdered spikes

What defines a "true" spike? What about Young Link's fire spike? Tricky to pull off, but I don't think anyone could recover from a nicely placed fire spike off of the edge...

a true spike is the one u cant meteor cancel.

fire spike is very hard 2 pull out.. 4 me (i never use YL) but i think it can be meteor canceled. Also its harder 2 do that on the edge

not all characters have spikes. sheik doesnt.
When I play Marth vs my friend's Shiek and try to get back on Final Destination he'll back kick me into the wall of FD just under the edge and I'll go straight down. Hate that crap. Not a spike but I do go straight down really fast.

every character has a spike, or some move that sends the opponite in a down ward trajectory.

on topic: marths 3rd sword dance is a meator, while his true spike is his dair.

Yeah but that's not what I meant. I meant as if when you spike someone in the air, while in the air you stay in the spike pisition for quite some time. Does anyone know how to cancel it while he's in the air.?

Yes, marth has one true spike (dair) and one meteor spike with his sword dance. No you can't cancel the lag of his dair in the air, it's a laggy move.

Now that that question has been answered, closed thread.

Also...to clear anything up.

Falco's over B is not a spike, neither is ganon's dair, it's a meteor cause it can be cancelled.
Ganon's down B is a spike, can't be cancelled.

If you can cancel a spike, it's a meteor, if you can't, it's a true spike. That is all.
