Down special move

The down special move, commonly referred to as down-B, is a special move in Super Smash Flash 2 or Fraymakers that is performed by pressing the special move input while holding down. In Fraymakers, it can also be performed by pressing down on a "Secondary Stick" when assigned to perform special moves.

Down special moves are the most varied special moves between characters and often the least straightforward. They often have unique functions that can be used to provide tactical advantages, such as reflectors, absorbers, counterattacks, item-creators, or unconventional projectiles or recovery moves. Many keep the character stationary, while several others propel them downward.

Trivia

 * Donkey Kong and Peach are the only characters in SSF2 who cannot perform their down special moves in midair.
