*'''[[Mach Tornado]]''' - Meta Knight turns himself into a [[tornado]], which cannot be [[guard]]ed. If [[Kirby]] is hit by the tornado, he will be thrown into the air and will take damage when he crashes onto the ground. This would later become [[SmashWiki:Mach Tornado|Meta Knight's neutral special move]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. | *'''[[Mach Tornado]]''' - Meta Knight turns himself into a [[tornado]], which cannot be [[guard]]ed.

*'''Tornado Slash/Summon''' - Sometimes simply called '''Tornado'''. Meta Knight requires charging to use this move. After releasing his charge, he stabs his sword into the ground to summon a giant [[guard|unguardable]] tornado. Like Mach Tornado, Kirby will be thrown into the air and take crash damage when hit by the giant tornado. This move has since appeared on various Meta Knight-esque bosses, such as [[Dark Meta Knight]] and [[Galacta Knight]]. | *'''Tornado Slash/Summon''' - Sometimes simply called '''Tornado'''.

*'''Glide Sword''' - Meta Knight performs a quick glide to thrust his sword at Kirby. In older games, Meta Knight requires charging to perform this. In modern games, this move, when used by Meta Knight-esque bosses, is in a similar fashion to '''Shuttle Loop''' of [[Wing]] Kirby. When Meta Knight is a playable character in modern games, he replaces it with Shuttle Loop directly. | *'''Glide Sword''' - Meta Knight performs a quick glide to thrust his sword at Kirby.

*'''Crescent Shot''' - Meta Knight fires a crescent-shaped energy wave from his sword. Meta Knight's Crescent Shot is green-colored in the original ''Kirby Super Star'' but has become yellow-colored to match the color of his [[Galaxia]] sword since its remake ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'' (and remains so in ''Kirby Star Allies''). The Crescent Shots from Meta Knight-esque bosses are usually in different colors instead. | *'''Crescent Shot''' - Meta Knight fires a crescent-shaped energy wave from his sword.

Meta Knight is featured for the first time as a fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. His main attributes are his excellent aerial mobility, with five mid-air jumps, excellent airspeed, and special moves which can all assist further with recovery (most notoriously his glide following his up-special), as well as his quick and powerful sword swipes, many of which can beat out moves from other characters. All of these attributes put together make for a fearsome fighter when in the right hands, so much so that he is widely considered the best character in the game and is often banned from tournaments. | Meta Knight is featured for the first time as a fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros.
