'''Wings of Icarus''' ({{ja|イカロスの翼|Ikarosu no Tsubasa}}, ''Wings of Icarus'') is {{SSBB|Pit}}'s [[up special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. | '''Wings of Icarus''' ({{ja|イカロスの翼|Ikarosu no Tsubasa}}, ''Wings of Icarus'') is {{SSBB|Pit}}'s [[up special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. When performed, Pit's wings glow blue and he gains the ability to fly for approximately 3 seconds. This, combined with the fact that, during flight, he can move in any direction, makes this one of the most mobile [[recovery]] moves in the game. For a reference, Pit can pull off the [[Hyrule Jump#Reverse Hyrule Jump|Reverse Hyrule Jump]] using Wings of Icarus alone. | ||

The initial "flash" is able to stop [[projectile]]s, but it'll interrupt the move. It also [[push]]es enemies and [[item]]s away. When used on the ground, it'll make Pit travel a slightly longer distance. | The initial "flash" is able to stop [[projectile]]s, but it'll interrupt the move.

When Pit lands on the ground, he'll be able to use Wings of Icarus again. | When Pit lands on the ground, he'll be able to use Wings of Icarus again. Although it'll take some time - approximately 2 seconds - until the move's "power" is restored. If it's used again before it's fully "charged", the total flying time limit will be shorter. The minimum limit is around 1 second. | ||

The move is based on the Angel Feather item from ''Kid Icarus'', which allowed him to fly back up should he fall off the bottom of the screen, and the Wings of Pegasus, one of the [[Three Sacred Treasures]], which allowed [[Pit]] to fly freely. | |||

*When Pit is in [[metal]] form, Wings of Icarus will only slow his fall, unless used directly from the ground.
