Meteor Smash

A Meteor Smash is an attack in in the Super Smash Bros. series and Super Smash Flash series that sends an aerial enemy straight down and a grounded enemy straight up. It can be meteor canceled easily in most cases. If it can not be canceled, then it is a spike which sends the opponent downwards until the hitstun wears off.

In Super Smash Flash
It was very hard to perform a meteor smash in Super Smash Flash as the physics were very different to the official Super Smash Bros. games. With good timing, most of the down aerial attacks could be performed as a meteor smash, but very rarely.

In Super Smash Flash 2
The physics of Super Smash Flash 2 were changed to make them similar to the Super Smash Bros. games. Meteor smashes are easy to perform on this game but sill require good timing to be performed correctly. Prior the release of the latest demos, some characters had attacks with meteor smash properties, usually their forward aerial or down aerial; however, some of these were removed to make the game work correctly and not to overuse a character. Some of these meteor smashes send an opponent diagonally downward instead of straight down, but they can still be canceled.
