'''Bat dropping''' (sometimes abbreviated as '''BD''') is a [[technique]] used primarily in the [[Home-Run Contest]] minigame to rack up very high damage on [[Sandbag]]. It is the act of dropping the bat over Sandbag, then hitting the bag with a move that does not send Sandbag flying, usually a [[meteor smash]] to hit the bag back into the ground, or some weak attack that negates the knockback of the bat drop.
'''Bat dropping''' (abv. BD) is a [[technique]] used primarily in the [[Home-Run Contest]] minigame to rack up very high damage on [[Sandbag]].

{{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} or {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}'s bat dropping technique is a classic example: they jump over the [[Sandbag]], drop the bat, and then hit it with a [[down aerial]]. The bat knocks the bag up in midair and the spike immediately hits Sandbag back down; thus, Sandbag doesn't move. The bat should bounce off Sandbag, so one can jump and catch it again.

The bat should have bounced off Sandbag, so Falcon can jump and catch it again with Z, after landing. With [[L-canceling]] and [[fastfalling]], one can achieve very high scores.


Not all characters have to use down aerial; examples are {{SSBM|Mario}}'s [[forward aerial]], {{SSBM|Yoshi}}'s forward aerial, and {{SSBM|Falco}}'s [[up aerial]]. The timing for every character is different because of varying falling speed, attack speed, and jumping height.

When combined with fastfalling, [[L-canceling]], and [[air grabbing]], one can perform many bat drops quickly.

Bat dropping requires more precise timing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' since the [[C-Stick]], the [[A button]], and shake smashing in the air can end up unintentionally grabbing the bat again.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
The bat only appears after six seconds have passed, limiting opportunities for bat drops.

*TBD: Triple Bat Drop: ''Brawl'' Only. Same as Double Bat Drops, but this time, dropping the bat three times. Impossible to follow with an aerial, but jabs are possible. Usually used with a pause in between the second and third bat drop.
