CommanderVideo's down special move

has a currently unnamed down special move in Fraymakers.

Overview
When performed, CommanderVideo transforms into a large yellow paddle for as long as the special input is held. While in this state, he can reflect projectiles that make contact with him, causing him to rotate in the projectile's orientation. Projectiles reflected by this move have the same properties as they did when first fired.

Origin
This move is based on the gameplay of ' and its gameplay successor ', in which the player controls a rectangular paddle that moves up and down across one side of the screen. The paddle is able to hit incoming squares known as Beats that make a sound and generally rebound upon hitting the paddle. Unlike in Fraymakers, the paddle is only capable of blocking Beats from one side, being the right side in BEAT and the left side in FLUX.

The paddle also appears in ' and ' as a shield used by CommanderVideo to block incoming Beats. Rather than transforming into it like in Fraymakers, CommanderVideo simply holds it in front of him as he runs. This ability is reflected in Fraymakers through CommanderVideo's Assist functionality.
