Projectile warfare reaches absurd heights in this Smash compilation, where reflections turn simple attacks into devastating weapons.

Whether intentional or born from desperate defense, these sequences prove that in Smash, controlling the projectile isn't always about throwing it first—it's about reading what happens when your opponent sends it back.

Projectiles can be very valuable to the player using the projectile, but they can also be extremely detrimental, depending on if their opponent plays their cards right.

This can cause ping-pong wars where a projectile is reflected back and forth over and over in quick succession to create INSANELY powerful projectiles capable of killing at extremely low percentage
