'''Bridge of Eldin''' ({{ja|オルディン大橋|Orudin Ōhashi}}, ''Oldin Great Bridge'') is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', {{forwiiu}}, and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It is based off the bridge of the same name. In ''Ultimate'', {{SSBU|Ganondorf}} is fought here for his unlocking battle.

==Stage overview==
Bridge of Eldin is normally completely flat, reaching both lateral [[blast line]]s.

Occasionally, a horn is heard: [[King Bulblin & Lord Bullbo|King Bulblin and Lord Bullbo]] then ride across the stage, dealing damage and moderate knockback to any fighters with which they collide. They can be attacked, and if hit their hitbox is temporarily removed. King Bulblin usually drops a bomb in the middle of the bridge. The bomb explodes shortly thereafter, dealing damage and heavy knockback to nearby fighters, at a deadly semi-spike angle in ''Brawl'', radially away in ''Smash 4'', and a diagonal vertical angle in ''Ultimate''. The bomb also destroys the middle part of the bridge, creating a pit with grabbable [[edge]]s.

A {{s|zeldawiki|Bulblin}} may also appear, following behind King Bulblin as he rides through. Unlike King Bulbin, it cannot harm players, and can actually be stunned if attacked - if damaged enough or caught in the blast of the bomb, it will be knocked away.

After a short while, a {{s|zeldawiki|Twilight Portal}} appears in the sky and restores the bridge to its complete state. Fighters trapped under the bridge's underside will be doomed to [[KO|die]] once it is completed.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', the stage is larger with the bridge extended and a deeper bottom blast line. These changes are more noticeable through [[Special mode|Fixed Camera Smash]].

In [[8-Player Smash]], King Bulblin does not appear, and the bridge is never blown up. This also occurs if [[stage hazard]]s are turned off in ''Ultimate''.

===Ω form and Battlefield form===
In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the Ω form is set on a portion of the bridge that has two columns supporting it that extend below the [[blast line]]. [[Walk-off]]s and King Bulbin are absent.

In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the main platform of the [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] are similar to ''SSB4'''s Ω form; however, it no longer has two columns supporting it, and it is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s are made of stone and are unique to the Battlefield form.

==Origin==
[[File:Bridge of Eldin TP origin.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Bridge of Eldin as originally seen in ''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''.]]
This stage is based on the Bridge of Eldin that appears in ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess}}''. It is situated over a large canyon with {{s|zeldawiki|Zora's River}} running through it, and it connects the northern part of the {{s|zeldawiki|Eldin Province}} to the large field in the southern part. After [[Link]] traverses the bridge for the first time, a large section of it is teleported away by {{s|zeldawiki|Twilit Messenger}}s. Later in the game, Link and {{s|zeldawiki|Midna}} find the missing piece in the {{s|zeldawiki|Gerudo Mesa}} and teleport it back via a {{s|zeldawiki|Twilight Portal}}.

{{s|zeldawiki|Bulblin}}s, a race of goblin-like creatures, are a common enemy in ''Twilight Princess''. Their leader, {{s|zeldawiki|King Bulblin}}, is fought several times throughout the game, one of which takes place on the Bridge of Eldin. This stage's sunset setting is a reference to this battle with King Bulbin, which ignores the normal day/night cycle and is always set at sunset; however, the bridge's destruction has nothing to do with King Bulblin in ''Twilight Princess''.

{{s|zeldawiki|Bomb Barrel}}s appear in several ''Zelda'' games, including ''Twilight Princess'', in which they are marked with a large white X. They usually act as damaging hazards, but they are not used by King Bulbin. They also do not generate a large explosion, though ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask}}'' features a usable version, the {{s|zeldawiki|Powder Keg}}, whose powerful explosion can destroy large rocks or walls that block the path.

==Tournament legality==
The stage is almost always banned in competitive settings because it is possible to walk off into the [[blast line]], which allows for [[camping]] and easy KOs, especially via [[chain grab]]s. Because of this, {{SSBB|King Dedede}} and {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} had disproportionate advantages on this stage. In addition, when the center of the stage is destroyed, players - especially those with great recoveries - can camp by moving from one end to the other.

==Glitches==
The Bridge of Eldin is known for various [[glitch]]es that involve using [[Final Smash]]es in the destroyed bridge area as the bridge reforms: these are specific cases of the [[regenerating terrain glitch]], which was fixed in {{forwiiu}}.

If a character uses a Final Smash that suspends them in midair - such as {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}'s [[Konga Beat]] - while the bridge reforms around them, they'll be able to move inside the bridge until they jump out of it or fall through the bottom. The player can also use [[Puff Up|Jigglypuff's Final Smash]] to remain giant - even after the Final Smash is over - by inflating in the broken bridge segment while it is being regenerated.  If [[Yoshi]] then uses [[Egg Lay]] on the giant Jigglypuff, the Pokémon will grow to a size that doesn't fit on the screen.  Jigglypuff's hitbox remains its size, making it easy to get KO'd especially after Yoshi's Egg Lay.

==Trivia==
*In the stage's files for ''Brawl'', a model of {{s|zeldawiki|Colin}} tied up to a spear, referencing his kidnapping in ''Twilight Princess'', can be seen, but goes unused. The model also has an animated flag, and Colin himself is hidden by other models.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Super_Smash_Bros._Brawl/Unused_Graphics#Colin</ref>
*In ''Ultimate'', [[Metroid]]s and [[Devil]] can only be summoned from an [[Assist Trophy]] on the Battlefield and Omega forms of this stage. Additionally, due to being a walk-off stage, [[Abra]] can only be summoned from [[Poké Ball]]s on the stage's Battlefield and Omega forms.
