Talk:One-hit KO

Can anyone come up with any more one-hit KOs? I could only think of those three. Tomm 18:24, September 16, 2007 (EDT)

Technically, none of these are guaranteed KOs, because Flare Blade and Judgement 9 won't automatically KO someone if they've been used multiple times, and all of them can be negated by a well-placed wall or ceiling. In fact, those two scenarios make the "one-hit KO" description useless, because they're not guaranteed KO moves. WarxePB 20:48, September 16, 2007 (EDT)

Does the new(ish) definition fit it better? (And couldn't think of the name for the power degrading through overuse. >>) Tomm 20:52, September 16, 2007 (EDT)

Corneria's cannon aren't technically One-hit KO, we should state that it hit you multiple times.--Fandangox 20:33, December 15, 2007 (EST)

Extra Condition

Lucasthalefty (talk) 08:42, 9 March 2009 (UTC) Wispy Woods (the tree from Dream Land) blowing air in a direction could keep the 1 hit KO from happening or a lot more controversially make a lot more moves 1 hit KOs. It talks about the middle of FD as being the rule for 1 hit KOs so i'm sure this won't be a big deal but it may be worth mentioning in the coditions, it's up to you if you want to add it.

Deletion

I think ALL of these need to be taken off (especially banzai bill) but I want your opinion first...

1. Various Attacks that normally KO from 60% (such as Ganondorf's Warlock Punch and Ike's Fully charged Forward Smash) when Giant sized can One-Hit KO
2. Various thrown items or projectiles such as the Unira used between two Pit's both using Mirror Shield right next to it.
3. The explosion from a Banzai Bill.
4. Roy's Counter against certain higher-knockback attacks.
5. Game and Watch's fully charged Oil Panic, with Ness's PK Flash, or another strong projectile.
6. A forward Smash Attack done by a Home-Run Bat.
7. Knuckle Joe's finisher.
8. Suicune's Aurora Beam (Brawl Only).

Suicune, I have no idea. Super Mushroom/Poison Mushroom or other size/gravity effects should not be considered either. The Great Fox lasers I'm pretty sure count, since even if you get hit by the final shot, it's a KO. But not the Banzai Bill, since it's basically the same as a Smart Bomb. Double-reflecting anything shouldn't really count. But I think a reflected Hot Head should; they're surprisingly powerful. I don't see why Rising Break/Smash Punch should NOT be considered a OHKO. Same with home run bat. That is the ORIGINAL OHKO. Oil Panic is often an OHKO but there's too many variables. - Gargomon251 (talk) 04:17, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

indeed. what should we do? delete them? Kperfekt722 (talk) 04:19, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Well you could just mention the situational things like Oil Panic and Counter, etc. But completely remove Banzai Bill, the status-change ones, and any DOUBLE reflects. Single reflects are fine, but how often will you REALLY get an item reflected TWICE? As for Hot Head, I'll do the testing. Maybe I only died in one hit from 50%+ damage - Gargomon251 (talk) 06:48, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Hothead is a no. I also am tempted to test Bumpers; a Smash throw will almost always KO in the 1p modes, but again, I never tried it with 0%. But unless the great majority of characters is OHKOd I won't add it. And I don't think I've ever seen anyone get hit by Suicune EVER, much less at 0%. It's far too rare. - Gargomon251 (talk) 07:32, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Actually, i found a fully charged hothead doesn't do it on the first try, but on the second attack on the same person (even if they have zero damage due to a heart container) is INSTANT death. I'm deleting electrode and a few others also. Kperfekt722 (talk) 04:07, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Wait

Wouldnt a ton of moves be on that list if their was hanidcapped damage. Any attack could kill and opponent. Zmario (talk) 22:11, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

I think the definition of a One-hit KO as an attack that can kill at 0 percent, with the damage ratio on 1.0, on any part of any stage (with no bouncing off walls). Maxiscool (talk) 22:55, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Which final destination?

Can someone please specify which final destination is being referred to in the One-hit KO section?Zixor (talk) 06:27, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Does it really matter? - Gargomon251 (talk) 08:17, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Indeed, does it? Anyways, my guess is that it is Melee's because (as far as I know) that one is bigger. KP317 (talk) 21:58, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Super jump punch?

Inside a negative zone it does not One Hit KO, you guys adding the damage negative zone does.If one rushes in there quickly before the damage is added then sweetspot the punch it goes higher yes,but nowhere near enough for a One Hit KO. I suggest we remove it as to not confuse people. - Hatake91 (talk) 21:29, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't think it counts if another Luigi does it. After all, one of the side effects from Negitive Zone is drastically reduced attack power. The Luigi using Negitive Zone has to do it. Maxiscool (talk) 22:18, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

luigis little kick taunt thing is a one hit ko in the too. Kperfekt722 (talk) 05:30, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Thats what I was talking about, its still not a One Hit KO if the Luigi who did use Negative Zone uses Superjump Punch its not a One Hit KO,Where did you get the idea I was talking about Another Luigi using it? - Hatake91 (talk) 17:08, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

When you said "If one rushes in there quickly before the damage is added" I thought you meant if another Luigi runs in there, for some reason it never occured to me that you meant Luigi's opponent waits until Luigi is done dancing, runs in there, and THEN Luigi clobbers him. Sorry. But if that doesn't OHKO, then you should remove it. Maxiscool (talk) 17:22, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

If Luigi who used the Negative Zone delivers a perfect SJP on the ground it is an One-Hit KO. But if it is used in the air, it may not cause instant KO. Xeze (talk) 18:24, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

Ivysaurs U-Smash

I'm sorry but that is a one-hit KO 90% of the time. Kperfekt722 (talk) 08:26, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

No, it's not. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 10:57, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

It's a powerful attack, but not a One-Hit KO. It doesn't kill an opponent at 0%. Xeze (talk) 11:01, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Test it out. On Final Destination, use Ivysaur's U-Smash (Fully Charged) Against Jigglypuff. KP317 (talk) 21:57, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, against JIGGLYPUFF. User:JtM/Sig

Ike's?

Ike's neutral B, Eruption is a OHKO isn't it? BEN!

No, it's not, even when fully charged. Xeze (talk) 21:17, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

What stage does it need to be done on? FD? I know it works on some stages. BEN! Yes on Final Destination. And it must work against all characters, or at least, against the majority of the characters. Xeze (talk) 17:13, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't when it's fully charged, but it has much more knock back when it's almost fully charged. I have yet to get the timing perfect yet, but I have heard that it can. BEN!

Luigi's Down Taunt

I'm pretty sure that Luigi's down taunt is not a One-hit KO inside the Negative Zone. But I think it is if used on an opponent who's hanging on a ledge. Xeze (talk) 15:10, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Technically, that's a Meteor Smash, and I don't think they count as OHKOs. Toomai (talk) 04:16, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

This is going to get grilled but...

What about multi-hit Final Smashes like Triforce Slash of Zero Laser, I know they hit more than once, but they are one attack? Ike's Best Buddy^{Great Aether!}

They count too, but none of them are OHKO's. - Hatake91 (talk) 22:21, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

I understand my idiocy here, but Great Aether is an OHKO when done on 75m. But that isn't Final Destination, so never mind.—Preceding unsigned comment added by L33tSilvie (talk • contribs)

Uh... Providing the opponent does not DI, Tech, or anything else of the like, Triforce Slash is a OHKO. Kperfekt ^{BURN!!! Revert That!} 07:45, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

As far as I can tell, the nominations for OHKO's in FSs are (in order of likeliness)

• Triforce Slash
• Zero Laser
• Sheik's Light Arrow
• Aura Storm
• Blue Falcon (maybe)

Ike's Best Buddy^{Here, my Friends} 18:17, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I now also move to remove number 9 Judge. I have never seemed to be OHKO'd by it.
