Quick Draw

Quick Draw is Ike's side special move used in all of his playable Super Smash Bros. appearances since Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Upon using the move, Ike dashes forward a distance depending on how long the move is charged and slashes his sword, damaging any opponents in his path. Although the move can only be charged a certain amount, Ike can be kept in place as long as the special move button is held down. The dash also stops when Ike reaches an edge or strikes an opponent. When used in midair, Ike is left helpless afterwards, though in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, there is a brief window in which Ike can act before being helpless.

The first custom variant given to Quick Draw in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U is Close Combat, which dashes faster and passes through opponents to strike them directly up for less damage. The second is Unyielding Blade, which gives Ike super armor throughout the attack, preventing him from being stopped, as well as dealing greater damage, but Ike does not travel as far, or as quickly.
