B-reversing was first introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and is retained in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as well. To execute a B-reverse, the player must input a special move, then quickly tap the direction opposite the one they are facing. If performed correctly, their character will do the special move while turning around and reversing their momentum. In ''Ultimate'', the direction input must be within 4 frames of the special input.

The momentum shift happens almost instantly and is very useful. For example, [[Mario]] can jump away from his opponent, as if to retreat, then B-reverse a Fireball to close distance while landing behind a projectile. [[Diddy Kong]] is able to gather lots of momentum with his [[Monkey Flip]], then B-reverse his [[Peanut Popgun]] on a moment's notice to avoid or attack his opponent. Even better, the popgun can be canceled with the shield button, making this an especially flexible movement option. [[Snake]] sees just as much use out of the technique, as he can B-reverse with [[Grenades]] and [[C4]] to avoid being juggled by opponents after recovering high above the stage.
