The Back Shield originated as an item in ''{{s|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}''. Much like in ''SSB4'', it temporarily protects [[Pit]] from enemy attacks from behind and it rotates with Pit to always be behind him.

As the name would suggest, the item protects the fighter's rear from harm. The shield lasts for 30 seconds, with time reduced based on how much damage it has taken (5 [[Home-Run Bat]] swings at 30% damage reduces it by about 5 seconds, for example).Some fighters can also take advantage of their [[back aerial]]s as they won't be damaged from colliding with another fighter's attack. There is a slight [[push]] effect near the shield.
