[[ | [[Image:Revival platform 1.gif|thumb|The revival platform in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'']]The '''revival platform''' is a special platform in all ''Smash Bros.'' games, that appears after a player has been [[KO]]'d, and comes with the revived character. These platforms disappear as soon as the player gets off of it. If the player does not act, the platform will disappear by itself after 5 seconds. This platform can only be boarded by the KO'd character and only when they have been KO'd. It cannot be boarded at any other time. This is mainly because it's just a graphical representation of the player's return, instead of the character appearing out of nowhere. More than one platform can be on the screen at once, one for each KO'd player, appearing next to each other. | ||

In ''[[Brawl]]'', it is commonly used to avoid characters using a [[Final Smash]]. In addition, many players utilize the invincibility to plan out their strategy and gather his or her thoughts. After dropping down from the platform, the character has a further period of invincibility to aid their descent from it. | ||

The animation | The animation to the platforms hasn't changed much over the three games. After a KO, the character will immediately just drop from the sky on the blue platform. The original game had a slightly different addition, though; upon appearing on the platform, characters would be lying down, and then would get up while the platform descended. | ||
In ''Super Smash Bros.'', a character gets the mystic bonus for being on a revival platform when his/her opponent is KO'd. In ''[[Melee]]'', the player gets the Angelic bonus point for ending the match this way. | |||

The revival platform originates from the game [[Mario (universe)|''Mario Bros.'']] When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] dies, he respawns on a small platform, followed by a short melody. While on the platform, the plumber gains invincibility. The melody that plays when Mario or Luigi respawns is not in the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|Smash Bros. universe]] however, but the revival platform itself is. | |||
