Who Will Win the Forward Air Tournament?

Forward air attacks become the ultimate test in this tournament-style challenge. Each character faces off in successive matchups, with victory determined entirely by their forward air capabilities. The comparison isolates what matters most in these attacks: startup speed and hitbox coverage. When two fighters swing simultaneously, superior positioning and size give one competitor the edge. YEETSmash builds the bracket progressively, letting each winner advance to face the next challenger in a format that strips away mix-ups, combos, and spacing—reducing every matchup to a single, repeatable interaction. The result is a direct measurement of which character's forward air truly dominates when execution and game knowledge are removed from the equation. It's a creative way to explore how character design choices play out at their most fundamental level.
