Summary
Moveset
Ground Attacks
- Neutral Attack: Jabs the dragon spire, does an upward slash with Yato and finishes by jabbing Yato. The infinite version of the attack has Corrin swiping the dragon fang forth very rapidly many times.
- Forward Tilt: Does a strong forward slash.
- Up Tilt: Does an upward slash that knocks opponents into the air.
- Down Tilt: Does a sweeping slash near the ground.
- Dash Attack: Jumps forward and spins like a drill. Hits multiple times.
Normal
Smash Attacks
- Forward Smash: A spinning dragon spire attack. It has the longest range of any forward smash and does the most damage at the tip.
Other Attacks
Aerial Attacks
- Forward Aerial: Does a downward slash. Looks a bit similar to Marth, Lucina and Roy's Forward Aerials.
- Back Aerial: Sprouts dragon wings that flap backwards and slam together; the move gives Corrin some forward momentum and actually helps with recovery.
- Up Aerial: Flips and does an upward slash. Looks very similar to Marth, Lucina and Roy's Up Aerials.
- Down Aerial: Flips upside down, sprouts a dragon spire, and quickly falls, stabbing downwards with it as they plummet towards the ground; functions much like Toon Link's Down Aerial.
Grabs and Throws
- Pummel: Slams opponents with the hilt of their sword.
- Forward Throw: Holds the Yato Blade against the opponent with its blades running, then stabs them with a dragon spire.
- Up Throw: Transforms into a dragon and headbutts the opponent into the air.
