Forced getup

A forced getup, also known as a jab lock, is a mechanic in Super Smash Flash 2 and Fraymakers that occurs when hitting a knocked down opponent with a weak attack. This causes the opponent remain on the ground momentarily before being forced to stand up slowly, without intangibility, allowing the player to then follow up with a KO attack or start a combo.

In Super Smash Flash 2, once an opponent gets jab locked three times, they will instantly get up with intangibility to prevent infinites. This is called a jab reset.
