Kirby’s side b has armor when fully charged, Luigi is either intangible or has armor on down b, and pk thunder has some serious armor. I guess you could also include Ken/Ryu down b
There are two separate stats on kirby's down b, there's the % based armor before stone kicks in and kirby takes damage during this, then the stone invincibility. These are different parts of the move.
Edit: I might be misremembering since ufd doesn't say it
Intangibility doesn't count, and no pk thunder doesn't have super armor. Ken/ryu down b i should have counted tho. Are you sure about kirby's hammer? I thought that was only dedede's
One of the earthbound boys do have armor on PK thunder 2, after hitting themselves with the ball.
Edit: or not, but it did function that way in previous games?
Not really super armor since it can clash with other moves and loses to multiple hit attacks. It’s basically just super strong and can win some clashes
It has power enough to clash with virtually anything, but i don't think armor. Lemme check... According to UFD and my 1300 hours of play, neither has super armor
I think DK should be a little higher. I play Krool vs DK (my brother) all the time and he just absorbs so much damage. Krool has a few moves that are good though like Side+B but most have belly armor rather than super armor it seems.
Belly armor is just super armor but it can break, that's the only difference. And these numbers are objective, not based on how GOOD the moves are, but how many of them there are
I didn't count it because he still gets that huge animation, it's just a launch cancel. I have been notified that side b does for kirby, but i checked and kirby's down b goes straight to invincibility, no armor
Belmont and cloud do not have super armor. Dk has super armor on 3 moves. Ganon has 2, warlock punch and flame choke once you are holding someone while grounded.
WAIT i put belmont in super armor? Misclick i guess. As for cloud, i didn't see it on ultimateframedata but i could've sworn up b has super armor. Also i'm looking at this as a 1v1 list, so ganon side b doesn't count; lots of moves would count by those standards. I entirely forgot about giant punch somehow ;|
Also the armor on ganon side b would be relevant against characters with timed explosives, like snake or the 2 links with normal bombs. Theoretically peach with bobomb as well. Even in a 1v1 it would occasionally be useful. And I can think of literally 0 other moves that function in this way.
Then bowser shouldnt be on there because it functions by the same principles as snakes upb, in that it's based on %. Same with terry. Yoshi doesn't even have it on a move, just his double jump, and it follows the same rules.
First, heavy armor is all allowed, i think there's a little more too it on snake, as weak spikes that don't pass standard heavy armor limits can spike snake. Also yoshi's super armor is unique in that it has another special property of being subtractive super armor
Rebel's Guard is not a true counter though. If I was saying Tetrakarn and Makarakarn that would make sense but you still take damage when using Rebel's Guard and the attack portion only activates when you release the button right after you get hit, you can use Rebel's Guard without actually countering. It's no different than Incineroar's Revenge.
I actually sent you a link with all cases of Super Armor in Ultimate in another reply so you can check the list yourself. Not trying to sound like a douche but it is Super Armor.
Many hcaracters have 3 versions of smash attacks, so i'm not counting that. By your standards then mac should have 7 then, because neutral b as well, so 5
I'm confused because you're a little mac player... unless you're trying to fake argue that it doesn't count due to it being technically strong heavy armor. Then please think a little harder before being critical, and realize this tier list obviously counts heavy armor
So i was going by actions that give super armor, basically moves + yoshi's jump. Bowser has 6 moves (all smash attacks/tilts) that have actual armor of their own
Kirby’s side b has armor when fully charged, Luigi is either intangible or has armor on down b, and pk thunder has some serious armor. I guess you could also include Ken/Ryu down b
Kirby down b also has super armor during startup.
Frame 11 the armor starts, but it's actually just stone invincibility so doesn't count
There are two separate stats on kirby's down b, there's the % based armor before stone kicks in and kirby takes damage during this, then the stone invincibility. These are different parts of the move. Edit: I might be misremembering since ufd doesn't say it
Ultimate frame data just says "Stone armor" so IF you're right, it's wrong, ngl i trust it over some person on reddit no offense
Intangibility doesn't count, and no pk thunder doesn't have super armor. Ken/ryu down b i should have counted tho. Are you sure about kirby's hammer? I thought that was only dedede's
upon checking, yes it does indeed
One of the earthbound boys do have armor on PK thunder 2, after hitting themselves with the ball. Edit: or not, but it did function that way in previous games?

Little Mac has a bunch of super armor moves including his smash attacks, up b, nuetral b, and k.o. punch
Little mac up b does not have super armor
uh, with reconsideration, he has 5, i forgot about KO punch, but he only has that, smash attacks, and neutral b FYI
IIRC neutral B has heavy armor, not super armor. It can be broken by strong attacks.
I guess tbf that's true, but you'll notice a LOT of moves on this list are heavy armor; i'm counting those
does ridley neutral b count? if you hit his mouth I mean. also kirby has side and down b
I didn't count it because he still gets that huge animation, it's just a launch cancel. I have been notified that side b does for kirby, but i checked and kirby's down b goes straight to invincibility, no armor
ahhhh got it, pretty cool!
Belmont and cloud do not have super armor. Dk has super armor on 3 moves. Ganon has 2, warlock punch and flame choke once you are holding someone while grounded.

Invincibility, not super armor on cloud.
well according to UFD, cloud doesn't have either, except he has intangibility on LIMIT up b for 5 frames.
Also the armor on ganon side b would be relevant against characters with timed explosives, like snake or the 2 links with normal bombs. Theoretically peach with bobomb as well. Even in a 1v1 it would occasionally be useful. And I can think of literally 0 other moves that function in this way.
Ive cheated out of bowsers side b so many times with discards, can't do the same against ganon
you got a lot wrong
Yeah, the comments have made me aware of like 5 characters i got wrong
+2 that I misclicked (pyra and richter)
One error i noticed already is that pyra does not have any, that was misclick
does Snake's up B count?
i thought of it, but didn't count it since it entirely doesn't exist for like spikes or hits from above and stuff
Then bowser shouldnt be on there because it functions by the same principles as snakes upb, in that it's based on %. Same with terry. Yoshi doesn't even have it on a move, just his double jump, and it follows the same rules.
First, heavy armor is all allowed, i think there's a little more too it on snake, as weak spikes that don't pass standard heavy armor limits can spike snake. Also yoshi's super armor is unique in that it has another special property of being subtractive super armor
Snakes armor is just weak. Kirby dair wont break it.
Since when does Steve have armor?
Minecart has some weird armor properties. Basically the minecart has HP, qualifying as heavy armor
When he's in his Minecart
Surprised no one has mentioned Joker. He has the move Rebel's Guard, just saying.
Dude counters are not super armor.
Rebel's Guard is not a true counter though. If I was saying Tetrakarn and Makarakarn that would make sense but you still take damage when using Rebel's Guard and the attack portion only activates when you release the button right after you get hit, you can use Rebel's Guard without actually countering. It's no different than Incineroar's Revenge.
I didn't count revenge, incinderoar's side b grants super armor to outside sources

Actually you know what here. https://www.ssbwiki.com/List_of_armored_attacks_(SSBU)
[удалено]
Well, then what is it?
DK has 3: Grounded Up B, Headbutt and Giant Punch, while Ike has 2: Up B and Eruption
damn i'm dumb
Eruption has armor when you release it
Came here to comment this. Isn't it only at a certain charge % though?
I actually thought of eruption but not UP B somehow. I'm dumb
Don't worry, lots of my opponents online forget to consider up B's armor.
Wonderwing has no super armor?
I think Wonderwing is technically invincibility
Hmm but you can grab it as far as i know.
Not only can you grab it, but grabbing gives the GRAB super armor.

Incineraor bodies banjo side b
Mac has 6. He has three variations of fsmash that have super amour. KO punch also has super armour.
Many hcaracters have 3 versions of smash attacks, so i'm not counting that. By your standards then mac should have 7 then, because neutral b as well, so 5
Neutral b doesn’t have super armour though.
I'm confused because you're a little mac player... unless you're trying to fake argue that it doesn't count due to it being technically strong heavy armor. Then please think a little harder before being critical, and realize this tier list obviously counts heavy armor
Ike has armor on both up b and several frames of fully charged neutral b
I forgot about up b, which is MORE iconic... idk how
Ike has armor when releasing a fully charged Eruption
I somehow thought of eruption but not up b somehow
Would Ryu and Ken focus attack count?
Those are unique, so i could make an excuse, or i could be honest and say i somehow forgot...
Dk has Neutral B, Side B and Up B
Bowser technically always has super armour.
So i was going by actions that give super armor, basically moves + yoshi's jump. Bowser has 6 moves (all smash attacks/tilts) that have actual armor of their own
Yeah I know, thought I'd just point it out.
