The user summons two orbitars that generate shields on either side of him for a second and a half. They reflect projectiles (with a 1.5× damage multiplier) while active, similar to {{SSBB|Wolf}}'s {{b|Reflector|Wolf}} in ''Brawl'', and push away opponents at the beginning. The Orbitars also behave as [[shield]]s that can protect the user from attacks, in addition to [[push]]ing opponents away upon doing so, though they can be bypassed by [[grab]]s.

The Guardian Orbitars have 18 HP in ''Smash 4'', and 15 HP in ''Ultimate'', which is shared between both orbitars, and is used up when blocking attacks. Unlike regular shields, they do not lose HP when simply held out, and instead gradually shrink in size for roughly one second until the user is forced to put them away, after which they can be summoned again at their maximum size. If the orbitars lose all their HP, they break and cannot be used for 10 seconds; attempting to use them before this period will have the user perform the summoning animation to no effect. Otherwise, the orbitars recover HP at a rate of 0.07 per frame when not in use (4.2 HP per second), so if close to breaking, it takes at most 258 frames (4.3 seconds) for them to fully regenerate in ''Smash 4'', and 215 frames (3.583 seconds) in ''Ultimate''.

Unlike regular shields, they do not lose HP when simply held out, instead forcing the user to put them away if held for longer than a certain period (80 [[frame]]s in ''Smash 4'', and 100 frames in ''Ultimate''); in ''Ultimate'', they also gradually shrink in size as they are held, though they immediately start back at their maximum size when summoned again.

The Orbitars have a sizable amount of ending lag, whether they are voluntarily dropped or allowed to expire, which can leave the user open for half of a second. However, if they are broken first by powerful enough attacks, their ending lag is sharply decreased. This event allows swift counterattacking (such as punishing a smash attack or [[Warlock Punch]]).

{{s|icaruspedia|Orbitars}} are one of the weapon classes in ''Uprising''. Weapons in this class can fire two shots at once and have high homing, though they're not as effective in melee combat. Guardian Orbitars specialize in defense, and can project shields with charged shots.

*The Orbitars's placement is inverted between the grounded and aerial versions of this move. This is most likely done to account for the animation difference between them.
