Standard attack (Super Smash Flash 2)

This article is about the attack in Super Smash Flash 2. For the Super Smash Flash variant, see Standard attack (Super Smash Flash).

A standard attack, also known as a Jab, Neutral P or Neutral A, is an attack in Super Smash Flash 2 performed by pressing the attack button while the character is standing. Unlike its predecessor, Super Smash Flash 2 encourages better Smash physics, and as such, standard attacks work similarly to how they do in the official Super Smash Bros. games. Standard attacks are typically fast, short-ranged, weak hits that are useful for starting combos or breaking opponents. Many jabs, such as Mario's or Link's, form natural "neutral" combos of two or three hits, with the final hit usually inflicting the most damage and knockback. Others, such as Kirby's or Pikachu's, include weak multi-hit attacks before the final hit that opponents must often use directional influence in order to avoid, as they can often be used for infinite amounts of time. As such, these attacks are called "jab infinites" or "neutral infinites".

The speed at which each hit in the sequence of a neutral combo is executed can be controlled through the timing of a player's button taps. Combos may be interrupted by crouching or shielding in order to restart them or to perform other moves quickly after canceling.
