Areadbhar

Areadbhar is Byleth's Side Special. Byleth goes a small distance forward and swings his spear named Areadbhar upwards.

Overview
On the ground, Areadbhar has massive range, covering above and in front of Byleth. This move also deals decent damage and knockback. However, it also has decent startup and endlag, allowing players to simply shield or avoid the attack and follow up with a punish.

In the air, Byleth swings Areadbhar in a circle, covering him in all directions. The move still has massive range and can fill in for the lack of verticallity that Byleth's forward and back aerials have. However, its startup and endlag still remain the same, thus also leaving Byleth vulnerable. In addition, the aerial form of Areadbhar has a fair amount of landing lag as well.
