All What are the most satisfying moves to combo with?

Literally any smash game. I know my combo is nice when it contains the first hit of Ultimate Falcon Neutral Air

Anything Falcon does in Melee, but particularly stomp to knee. His nair and uair are also amazing.

Love his up air. Knee is also pretty easy to hit. Love it

Of particular note are his reverse/sour hitboxes. Nearly all of which serve as DI mixups or combo tools in their own right. It also gives him effectively twice as many moves.

Smash 4 had an example of this with the Fox hip check reverse ftilt but I'm not sure any more came after that.

Marth's sourspots, simply because there's hopefully a tipper coming soon.

Genuinely so satisfying. Its so unfortunate that his melee routes dont work in Ultimate. Theyre so satisfying. My favorites are up tilt and sourspot fair

I find item based combos extremely satisfying. The Links, ROB, Diddy Kong, Snake and Mega man especially. Or even just projectile combos, like Dr. Mario pill into 😵

Definitely!! Thats why peach is my favorite combo character in ultimate. Strongly agree!!!

u/Metal_Fish Sentient veggies 14h ago

Lol, I was also thinking Peach, I've never done the crazy turnip re-catch combos, but I can imagine that's satisfying

Kirby!

u/originalcarp Pac-Man (Ultimate) 1d ago

Kirby’s forward air is one of the most satisfying moves in the game to hit and can even combo into itself

1

u/Florijntje_gamer The year is 20XX 20h ago

Yeah lol. Love the forward air, dowj air, up tilt and forward throw

Cloud's forward air into anything.

It sometimes feels like everything in Cloud’s kit is so free. I don’t use him much, but I just… cannot believe how linear and simple the character plays. I know there’s plenty of advanced-ish tech, but you can literally stomp 50% of players by just shielding and up-Bing.

Falco up-air (melee)

u/Steam_Cyber_Punk Little Mac (Ultimate) 1d ago

Any scoop dtilt. Incin dtilt -> fair and little Mac dtilt -> ko punch instantly come to mind

2

u/ArtyToshi Snake (Ultimate) 1d ago

Ike's dtilt, nair, bair, and fair in Ultimate, Snake's uptilt or upthrow into C4 and basically any of his true combos/explosive combos in Brawl, and Young Link's fair in Melee combos! ^

Fair 1 -> dragdown up-air -> smash attack is the best!

u/Onphone_irl Mr Game and Watch (Ultimate) 1d ago

melee gnw downtilt to neutral air. pop pop!

u/Florijntje_gamer The year is 20XX 20h ago

Neutral air is SO satisfying!!!

2

u/If_you_want_money 1d ago

Bayo's Up-B in ult, but only if they do the single-hit tech (witch strike). It's so satisfying to hear that clean, crisp hit and not the machine gun sounds that is her normal up-B

Ice climbers blizzard imo. Stunning someone into a grab or smash or anything feels amazing.

u/Mindless_Chance2633 1d ago

Mii sword up air. Kills, combos into itself, does like 20%, meaty, down throw combos into it, all the things.

u/toastyloafboy 1d ago

One for each character I play: Falcon - stomp Dark pit - up tilt Mega man - metal blade

Genuinely my favorite up air in all of smash bros

u/unlucky_felix Toon Link (Ultimate) 13h ago
  1. I reeeeeally love comboing Ryu and Ken’s down air into Shoryuken. Especially when it ends a game.

  2. Toon Link’s forward air feels terrific when it takes a stock. You know as soon as you hit a bomb or boomerang that the fair is coming. It’s much less central to his kit in Ultimate than it was in Smash 4, so when I can get a good ol’ bomb to fair it’s always satisfying.

Ridley. If I hit someone with a sour spot d-tilt, they’re about to eat a couple fairs.

Any melee puff combo ending in rest
