Ledge

A Ledge (also known as edge or a cliff) is any part of a stage in which someone can grab or tether. Ledges are often at the end of a stage's main platform. The ledge becomes an important element in the battle between a edge-guarder and a recovering opponent who can find ways to counter edge-guarding. Some stages have many ledges (Fourside) or none at all (Good Egg Galaxy).

Characters in the air will automatically grab the ledge while in the air, but ignore it if they are fast falling or if they are trying to attack. When a characters grabs the ledge they will gain Invincibility frames. Some characters can automatically grab the ledge when running off the stage better then others.

Fast and slow ledge actions
Characters whose damage is below 100% are considered fresh and climb back onto the stage quickly. However, characters who damage exceeds 100% are considered tired and climb back onto the stage slower. This is mostly seen when characters perform their ledge attacks. Characters who have their damage below 100% will do a fast attack that does little damage. When their damage is above 100% they will perform a different ledge which is slower, but is more powerful.

Hang Time
All characters have a fixed amount of time they have to hang onto the ledge. The amount of time a character can hang onto the ledge cannot increase or decrease by usual methods so someone can keep grabbing the ledge and their ledge hang time will remain the same, effectively ledge stalling. When a characters damage exceeds 100% their amount of time on the ledge is reduced. However, at the current moment, in Super Smash Flash 2 their ledge time when they are fresh or tired remains the same.

Hang time - 6 seconds
