However, landing lag on aerial attacks encumbers more experienced players who know the character movesets and know exactly what they want to do and how they want to do it. When attacking in the air and then landing, most characters will experience substantial amounts of lag when landing - more specifically, the amount of frames has drastically increased from the point your character hits the ground to the point when you're allowed to control your character again. Your character effectively becomes "locked" in a recovery animation after landing.

Would this be a bad thing for a character like Toon Link though (save the dodge)? Honestly, with him I like to stay in the air as long as possible with him, since his special moves are still very accessible from the air, and his arials are among the best in the game.
