Status Effect

A status effect is a state that gets applied to a character when hit by an attack, item, or entering an area of effect. Most status effects the mobility of characters.

Stun
The stun (or dizzy) effect is mainly reached by holding shield for too long. Captain K'nuckles and Kevin also have access to moves that inflict this status. It is possible to be dizzy while airborne therefore having a big chance of KOing the said dizzy player.

Knocked Down
The knocked down effect is applied when a character is sent tumbling through the air and lands on the ground while they were in tumbling state. Once knocked down, the player has many different ways to get back up on their feet.

Dance
The dance status effect is only inflicted by the Dracula assist. It is much more effective than dizzy as there is no way to break out of dance except for getting hit or when the assist disappears. However landing it is another issue as it requires the player to be actively standing in a limited facinity. Dracula's assist can be shielded or even jumped out of when timed quickly.

Meat
The meat status is another effect inflicted by an assist, Fuzzy Lumpkins. This effect completely disables all controls similar to dizzy and dance, however the effect is entirely dependent on the time Fuzzy Lumpkins is on stage or relative to when he shot the player so players in meat status won't be able to escape the effect immeadiately after getting hit.

Ice
Blossom's neutral special inflicts the ice status. Players are stuck in place with no effect from gravity and break out from either getting hit or after a duration of time based on the receiving player's percent.

Rainbow
The rainbow status is received after getting hit by a rainbow monkey item. With this status walking and running are disabled and instead a slow skipping animation will play. This status can be effective since disabling running gets rid of dash attacks and other maneuvers used that running gives access to.

Frog
Frog is a status either given on the Toadblatt stage, or from Toadblatt's staff item. The receiving player becomes a frog, disabling all attacks and limiting movement. Players may do the shield and roll input to hop a certain distance faster.

Chicken
The chicken status is inflicted fro the hazard on Mandark's Lab. The receiving player becomes a chicken, disabling all attacks and limiting movement, though not as slow as the frog status. However unlike frog status the chicken status is incapable of hopping.
