Sonic, fittingly, has the fastest running speed in the game.  His special moves and aireal v+A also cause his trajectory to abruptly change.  Unfortunately, his actual attacks are short ranged and weak in comparison to most characters.  Sonic players must therefore rely on his extreme mobility to keep the opponent confused (or to gain items, if those are enabled.)  Sonic is fast on the ground but suffers from a low horizontal speed while in the air.

At competitive tournaments, where items are generally disabled, Sonic suffers from a lack of kill moves which are both safe and effective.  He usually has to anticipate a mistake from his opponent to hit with a smash or back aireal, or a high altitude up aireal kill.

Dash attack, >+B, and v+B are all variants of Sonic's iconic spindash attack.  His ^+B  gives great vertical distance for recovery and the spring that falls can do minor damage to enemies below, potentially spiking them.
