How long can a shield/block that belongs to Ganondorf last against an aggresive Little Mac

super-smash-bros-4

In all Super Smash Bros Titles, players can block. When they block, the player gets a bubble (shield) around them that absorbs damage and even reflects some attacks. But, if a player holds it for too long, or takes too much damage, the shield will pop and they will be stunned for a considerable amount of time. What precentage of damage does it take for Ganon's shield to break?

It would be with no items and no custom (for Glory).

Best Answer

Shields have 50 HP, regardless of character. However, this is slightly misleading for two reasons:

  1. Shields take 0.7x damage from most attacks.
  2. If an attack has increased shield damage, the additional damage is not reduced to 0.7x.

So while a value of ~70 HP is probably more practical, stuff like floor attacks, Shield Breaker, Eruption, and Mr. Saturn will have a much more destructive effect.
