'''Dark Pit''' ({{ja|ブラックピット|Burakku Pitto}}, ''Black Pit'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. | '''Dark Pit''' ({{ja|ブラックピット|Burakku Pitto}}, ''Black Pit'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', being an unlockable [[newcomer]]. Dark Pit was teased before release, being shown in {{SSB4|Palutena}}'s reveal trailer, and officially confirmed by the ''Smash'' website on October 9th, 2014 alongside Dr. Mario, in a post-release announcement. He is a move set {{h1|clone|Clones in Super Smash Bros. 4}} of {{SSB4|Pit}}, and like {{SSB4|Lucina}} and {{SSB4|Dr. Mario}}, was originally intended to be an alternate skin before being split off into his own character. | ||
Just as in ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', Dark Pit | Just as in ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', Dark Pit is voiced by Antony Del Rio in English and Minami Takayama in Japanese, sharing the same voice actors with {{SSB4|Pit}}, albeit having different voice clips. | ||
Dark Pit | Dark Pit currently ranks 17th in D tier on the [[Tier list|tier list]], which is one spot higher than Pit. While he is almost a full clone of Pit down to his movement options and combos, Dark Pit has a significantly more powerful KO option in [[Electroshock Arm]], which KOs much earlier than Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]] counterpart. He also has a faster and stronger projectile in [[Palutena Bow|Silver Bow]], making it better for damage racking. However, as Dark Pit largely retains Pit's moveset, he suffers from the same issues as him, such as a good damage racking ability but largely weak finishers that give him trouble taking stocks outside of aggressive [[edgeguard|edgeguarding]], along with two weaker versions of Pit's finishers (forward tilt and back aerial). Regardless, Dark Pit has been respectably successful in tournaments due to all his aerials being able to [[autocancel]], his recovery being long distanced, and his edgeguarding ability being effective thanks to his multiple jumps. | ||

== | ==Differences from {{SSB4|Pit}}== | ||
Unlike most clones, who have | Unlike most clones, who at least have different properties to differentiate themselves from the original (such as Lucina lacking {{SSB4|Marth}}'s tipper and Dr. Mario being a "stronger and slower {{SSB4|Mario}}"), Dark Pit is almost exactly the same as his base character, Pit, in both moveset and movement speed ([[walking speed]], [[dashing speed]], [[air speed]], [[falling speed]] and 3 [[double jump]]s). Excluding the smaller hitbox size on his jab's rapid finisher and the less base knockback on his forward tilt, Dark Pit's standard attacks are extremely similar to Pit's, sharing the exact same frame data, damage and knockback, making Dark Pit quite literally a clone chracter (even their [[taunt]]s share the exact same length of time despite looking different). The main differences between them are two of their [[special move]]s, which makes Dark Pit almost like a [[custom moveset]] counterpart of Pit with his own roster slot. This means combat-wise, Dark Pit works exactly the same as Pit, only with aesthetic differences (such as him using a different weapon, while having different [[taunt]]s and voice lines). A Pit player will have no trouble playing Dark Pit because of their mirrored movesets, but there are some minor differences that can make Dark Pit either a better or worse character to pick in a matchup. | ||
The | The first difference is Dark Pit's [[Silver Bow]]: compared to Pit's Palutena's Bow, Silver Bow's arrows travel in an almost fixed straight trajectory that can be only shifted slightly up and down. This means they are significantly less accurate than Pit's curve-heavy arrows, making it impossible for him to land as many aimed shots or be as much of a nuisance to opponents that are knocked offstage as Pit. Instead, they possess slightly higher overall damage, increased knockback, and speed when uncharged, which makes them more rewarding if used to deal damage than when compared with Pit's. Dark Pit's arrows are inferior to Pit's if a player solely uses them to [[camp]], [[gimp]] or pester opponents, as they cannot be guided accurately. However, if a player prefers not to concentrate on aiming arrows as much as Pit, this can be an upside, as Dark Pit can allow them to focus on other matters, rather than aiming projectiles. | ||
The more significant | The second and more significant difference is his side special. [[Electroshock Arm]], apart from dealing [[electric]]al damage, sends opponents in a diagonal trajectory when landed, compared to Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]] which knocks opponents vertically. Combat-wise, Upperdash Arm KOs more consistently anywhere on the stage (starting at 130%) than Electroshock Arm if both Pit and his opponent are grounded due to its vertical knockback, and Star KOs much earlier if the opponent is high in the air. By contrast, Electroshock Arm's diagonal knockback allows it to net KOs much earlier at the sides of the stage (starting at 80%), deals more damage, and is deceptively powerful if it lands on an offstage opponent due to its angle of knockback. Because of these differences, Electroshock Arm is a better offstage edgeguard (although its endlag when missed makes it a dangerous option) and is a reliable KO move at the edges of the stage, especially against [[weight|heavyweights]] or fighters with poor recovery as a diagonal angle can KO them more reliably, as well as make it more difficult for them to get back on stage: a perfect example would be against {{SSB4|Ganondorf}}, who would be in more trouble if sent offstage by Electroshock Arm than up into the air but still safely over the stage by Upperdash Arm. | ||
All in all, in line with Dark Pit's Idol description in ''Uprising'', the [[icaruspedia:Dark Pit|"flawed clone of Pit"]] is a more difficult character to use projectile-wise due to his harder hitting but less accurate projectile when compared to Pit, but he brings a different finishing tool into battle in the form of Electroshock Arm, which opens up a few more opportunities for him to earn KOs. Regardless, both Pit's differences are not all that significant, and it is up to the player to decide which Pit to use in combat. | |||

Dark Pit doesn't gain much benefit from his custom moves; only his neutral special really gains any benefit. Piercing Bow deals more damage and passes through rivals, but cannot be angled, giving it even less control than the regular Silver Bow. Guiding Bow is basically the opposite of Piercing Bow, it trades damage for more control, making it the close {{SSB4|Pit}}'s [[Palutena's Bow]]. | |||

==Update history== | ==Update history== | ||
Similar to Pit, Dark Pit's changes in updates were minor, but were improvements in general. The changes to shielding mechanics in [[1.1.0]] and [[1.1.1]] are beneficial to him due to his multi-hit moves and his side special, Electroshock Arm, having better shield damaging capabilities. The base damage of Silver Bow was also increased (along with the projectile's speed) in 1.1.0, making Dark Pit's arrows a slightly stronger but less accurate variant of Pit's Palutena's Arrow. Update [[1.1.3]] buffed Electroshock Arm due to sending opponents at a more horizontal angle, making it KO earlier and more deadly against sub-par recoveries. Overall, Dark Pit seems to better than he was in the game's initial release. | |||

:'''Dark Pit''' | |||
::{{flag|ntsc}} ''Pit's mysterious, black-clad doppelgänger, Dark Pit. (Some call him Pittoo, but he really doesn't like that.) When he first appears, he immediately goes after both Pit and the Underworld Army. In Smash Bros., he uses moves a lot like Pit's, though both his bow and his Sacred Treasures are different.'' | |||
::{{flag|pal}} ''Pit's black-winged doppelgänger. Dark Pit, aka Pittoo (although he's not exactly fond of being called that), looks like Pit, moves like Pit and uses very similar attacks. He's a lot more aggressive, though, and doesn't take orders from anyone. He also has his own weapons, like his Silver Bow.'' | |||
{{Trophy games|console1=3DS|game1=Kid Icarus: Uprising (03/2012)}} | |||
:'''Dark Pit (Alt.)''' | |||
::{{flag|ntsc}} ''Dark Pit's Guardian Orbitars special puts up shields of light on either side of you to block attacks, deflect projectiles, and push back any enemies who are too close. You can even use the shields to protect against attacks from above and below. If they take too many hits, though, they'll vanish and become unusable for a while.'' | |||
::{{flag|pal}} ''Dark Pit's Guardian Orbitars special puts up shields of light on either side of you to block attacks, deflect projectiles, and push back any enemies who are too close.

:'''Dark Pit Staff''' | |||
::''In Kid Icarus: Uprising, Dark Pit used this staff to snipe at Pit from a mountaintop. In that game, it did much more damage when used at a distance. In this game, Dark Pit uses it to launch a high-speed horizontal blast that goes straight through obstacles. It can hit multiple foes in a row, but only the first will feel its full force.'' | |||

*Dark Pit's crowd chant is a repeated chant of "Pittoo, Pittoo, Pittoo" or "Burapi! Burapi!", depending on the international or Japanese release. In either case, Dark Pit's chant is the only one not to contain the fighter's actual name. Both of the nicknames are given to him by Palutena in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' (again, depending on the international or Japanese version), and are often used by her and other characters, much to Dark Pit's chagrin. | *Dark Pit's crowd chant is a repeated chant of "Pittoo, Pittoo, Pittoo" or "Burapi!
