As of patch 3.1.0, it is possible (though technically difficult) to summon the Phantom in front of Zelda by making use of a [[cancel]]led [[RAR]] [[down aerial]] into the Phantom Slash. This advanced technique, which some call the "Reverse Displaced Phantom", allows the Phantom to provide the same kind of frontal protection it previously offered in ''Smash 4''. | As of patch 3.1.0, it is possible (though technically difficult) to summon the Phantom in front of Zelda by making use of a [[cancel]]led [[RAR]] [[down aerial]] into the Phantom Slash.

This is most viable for [[Nintendo Switch Pro Controller]] users, as canceling the RAR into the Phantom is easier due to the placement of the buttons "X" and "B" being closer together when compared to a [[GameCube controller]]. | ||
Allowing Zelda to hop backwards into a Phantom has a multitude of uses. In addition to the stage control that the Phantom normally grants, displacing the Phantom will also block a multitude of projectiles, allowing Zelda to safely charge Phantom Slash in situations where it would normally be cancelled by the projectile in question. | |||

Since Zelda has control of the Phantom in ''Smash'', the move is directly referencing ''Spirit Tracks''. The Phantom's design in ''Smash'' primarily draws from their appearance in ''Spirit Tracks'', as evidenced by the decorations on their shield, although it is given a unique feminine color scheme that does not precisely match Phantom Zelda. Rather than retaining the cartoonish and cel-shaded design of the "toon" ''Zelda'' games, Zelda's Phantom in ''Smash'' is given a more detailed redesign in line with her own more realistic designs. Since Zelda's Phantom is not possessed, its eyes do not glow at all. | Since Zelda has control of the Phantom in ''Smash'', the move is directly referencing ''Spirit Tracks''.
