Flame Choke

Flame Choke is Ganondorf's side special move in Super Smash Flash 2.

Overview
When used, Ganondorf charges forward with his hand outstretched. If he makes contact with any opponent, he will grab them, lift them up, and slam them onto the ground with an explosion of dark magic. In the air, Ganondorf and the opponent will plummet downwards, stopping when Ganondorf hits the ground or a platform.

As the move is a grab, it bypasses all shields and counters; Ganondorf himself has super armor while he is holding the opponent. The move also has very little endlag, which, coupled with the explosion knocking opponents to the ground, makes it Ganondorf's most reliable option for setting up combos. The opponent can tech the explosion hit, potentially negating follow-ups, though Ganondorf can still react quickly, which aids its use in mindgames. The aerial version can be used as a Sacrificial KO, and Ganondorf can alter his position by pressing forward or backward, though both Ganondorf and his opponent lose their stocks at the same time, which only makes this useful if Ganondorf has a stock lead.
