This attack is usually telegraphed through a roar or other loud sound and the combatant rearing up to strike the ground. This is a very dangerous attack, with high damage and high knockback, which combined can kill players by having them slam into objects or flinging them off the battlefield. Ultra Smashes usually inflict Kinetic damage, but can have other effects, such as leaving a damaging [[Solar]] field on the ground. | ||
