Down tilt

A down tilt, also known as a d-tilt, is a ground attack in Super Smash Flash 2 or Fraymakers that is performed by pressing the attack input while holding down. It is most easily performed by pressing the attack input while crouching or crawling. In Fraymakers, it can also be performed by pressing down with a dedicated tilt input or by pressing down on a "secondary stick" when assigned to perform tilt attacks.

Down tilts are generally quick strikes that attack low to the ground in front of the character. They often deal weak damage and knockback and have relatively short range and low lag compared to other tilt attacks, making them useful for setting up combos, spacing, and poking. They often reach low enough to attack opponents below or hanging on a ledge, which also makes them useful for edgeguarding. Certain down tilts can also be used to pseudo-crawl by moving the character slightly forward across the ground.

In SSF2, attempting to down tilt while holding a throwing item throws it downward.
