Edge Attack

The Edge Attack is a move used by Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). It a move where the user rushes toward a small target and destroy it.

Description
The Edge Attack is primarily used to wipe obstacles and enemies out of the way, although the dealt damage is about the single hit of a Homing Attack. When using the move, Shadow gets down, then sweeps his both legs for about 180 degree while turning off his Air Shoes.

In gameplay, the Edge Attack's range is limited but will destroy any lesser enemy that the player rushes closely toward. Using it against larger targets, requires multiple tries to inflict serious damages. However, it is still recommended to keep momentum of the player's speed and to crush at the target directly without slowing down, like in the battle against Silver. In addition, using the Chaos Boost also amplifies its power for a certain degree. To use it in gameplay, the player has to press the / while running.
