Special Move

A special move is any move performed by pressing the B button. Unlike other attacks, special attacks can have wildly different functions - for instance, Falco's forward B is a quick running swipe familiar to a dash attack, whereas Samus' forward B is a projectile that leaves Samus stationary. Only special attacks can be projectiles, and some are able to render the user helpless if used in mid-air (usually those that function as mid-air jumps, like most up B attacks).

Special attacks include neutral B, forward B, down B and up B.
