Absorption is SpongeBob's down special.
Overview[edit | edit source]
SpongeBob absorbs a hit, cutting back damage dealt to him while dealing 0.8x back, making it a weak counter but allows SpongeBob to take less damage. Opponents who attack obtain increased endlag for said move, allowing SpongeBob to perform a counterattack.
Repeated use of Absorption within a minute weakens the amount of damage absorbed and the endlag added. Using other moves will allow the timer to reset.
No. of use | Damage reduced | Endlag added |
---|---|---|
1-2 | 90% | 30 frames |
3 | 70% | 25 frames |
4 | 35% | 15 frames |
5+ | 5% | 1 frame |
Origin[edit | edit source]
This counterattack is based off of SpongeBob's flexibility and ability to mold and disfigure himself into anything, thereby also being able to "absorb" hits.
