I feel that CF's up-b outmodes Mario's in every way, oos uses being debatable. You have great control of it in the air, greater vertical ascension, a stronger stage spike, a kill move at the edge (~120% with DI), reuse if it hits someone, and you can grab MK out of SL!

The grabbox is only for the first part, so edgehoggers aren't threatened when you're far down. Also, it doesn't really add to CF's ledge grab reach while Mario basically can reach another up-B distance away after he uses it.

Mario can do all those things (Except grabbing of course) except Mario's is faster, has higher priority, and has an invincible startup. Also, Mario’s Up B’s vertical distance is barely beat by CF’s, but Mario’s is far more reliable for recovery.

PS: Mario's Up B is actually a stronger stage spike

Ness's Bthrow is too good, it's pretty nice when you have a throw as a reliable kill move :bee:

You underrate Zelda's throws. I'm no Zelda pro or anything, just sayin'. Oh, you also underrate Ike's fair, and ESPECIALLY bair. Also, Pit's bair > Yoshi's. Sorry, I'm too lazy to argue for these, and I don't particularly care how accurate this list is, but here's what I think you should consider.

Also, it's funny how Sonic's best moves don't make the lists. :p

Ike's Bair pwns, fast and ridiculous but awfully telegraphed. Care to explain how pit's bair is better than yoshi's? I noticed none of the ones on the list require sweetspotting making them more "practical". Ness's Bair is better than Pit's btw.

There is no way Jigglypuff makes the list for her relatively bad dair yet does not make the list for her relatively strong fairs and bairs.
*sigh* this is the top ten of every move. Not the top 10 moves of every character. So most characters have better F/Bair but are lacking in the Dair department so that's why jiggz made it for her Dair.

I know but seriously, her dair is fairly bad. Her bair though should easily crack the top 10. Its better than R.O.B.'s and peach's bair in my opinion. Its a great bait, shield pressure and spacing move.

Her fair but her bair is pretty good.

Samus definitely needs to be on the dair list. And possibly ZSS on the Bair list. Seriously, its her best move.

Lucas's Usmash. The hitback is great and is a big part of his metagame, depending on how close to the blast wall you are and it is mostly used if your enemy is helpless.

Dang, theres so much lingo that new people would think i am speaking another language

Yeah, Lucas' Usmash isn't great. I've only been killed by it in ****ing around FFA's.

Samus does have a beastly Dair, so easy to hit with and I'd say is the best meteor (maybe not knockback but it's easy to land, you can even do it multiple times before having to recover, too good)

It's not really all that bad for recovery as long as make sure you don't Up B at the same time someone edgehogs; cape stalling greatly helps with this. Anyway, you shouldn't remove it just because it isn't a great recovery move; the reason why Mario's Up B is even up there is because of its exploitable attributes as an atk: its speed, its priority, and the fact that it has an invincible startup.

Its got a huge ledge-grab range though.

I mean, it makes Mario's recovery pretty good, remember when everyone was shocked at Sakurai's YOU MUST RECOVER pictures ?

A guy measured it and concluded it was 3/4 the length of battlefield.

Toonlink has a pretty good recovery, about as good as Mario's, but DK, Lucas, Ness, and Ike are all meh.
