Edge recoveries are a set of moves that can be executed while a character is hanging on an edge. Along with grabbing the edge, these moves typically give a character invincibility frames to aid in recovery. It is often prudent to return to the stage before the invincibility frames expire. Edge recovery maneuvers are sometimes used to edge-guard, especially when releasing and re-grabbing the ledge to refresh jumps. Edge recovery moves also sometimes play a role in stalling.
Types of recovery moves
There are five general recovery moves which may be performed while grabbing the edge. Each technique generally becomes slower and/or or more powerful at damage percentages past 100%, with the exception of letting go of the edge.
- Climb: By pushing the control stick towards the edge, the character will climb up onto the stage. When the character has more than 100% damage, the action of climbing back to the stage is significantly slower.
- Attack: By pressing an attack button, a character will climb up onto the stage while performing an edge attack. This is primarily useful when the opponent is next to the edge, as a counter attack. When the character has more than 100% damage, the getting up to attack motion is significantly slower. On the plus side however, almost all edge attacks deal more damage (except for Captain Falcon's) and the character still has invincibility frames when hitboxes come out, unlike with the normal edge attack.
- Roll: By pressing a shield button, a character will climb up and roll forward a moderate distance. When the character has over 100% damage, the action of getting back up to roll is significantly slower, however the roll itself covers slightly more distance.
- Jump: By pressing a jump button or pushing the analog stick up, a character will leap upwards and slightly forward. However, this move does not give a character invincibility frames. This option is not available in the first Super Smash Bros. and in Brawl, characters typically jump higher than they did in Melee, and have less ending lag on the jump, allowing them to perform other actions sooner, making it overall more useful. When the character has over 100% damage, there is slight delay before the character jumps, though this increase in start-up lag is much less severe than with the other edge options over 100%.
- Let go (away): By pressing the control stick away from an edge, a character will let go or leap away from the stage. Pressing the control stick away and jumping at the same time has the same effect of performing a reverse midair jump in place. Depending on the character, following the release with a double jump and then an aerial attack can be faster than using the edge attack. Some character have other benefits from double jumping after releasing the edge, such as Yoshi, whose double jump gives him launch resistance.
- Let go (down): By pressing the stick down, a character will let go and fall downward. Tapping the control stick down will cause the character to fast-fall. Some common applications for this include mindgames with the opponent and planking.

An edge recovery attack is an attack performed by pressing the attack button while hanging on an edge. The character will get up while performing an attack. There are 2-3 different Edge Recovery attacks for each character.
Once a character has received 100% of damage, they begin to perform a different edge attack than normal. The attacks are usually slower, but do more damage to opponents, although the increase is usually only 3-5%. For example, Yoshi's edge attack involves a quick 6% tail whip, while when at high damage, it becomes a slow 12% headbutt.
Edge attacks are generally avoided in competitive play due to their slow speed and limited usefulness. Players will often use other techniques or attacks to return to the stage instead. However, players will often mix in edge attacks to catch the opponent offguard, especially if their character's edge attack has great reach (like Ganondorf's under 100% edge attack and King Dedede's over 100% edge attack), and/or has invincibility frames (which are safer to punish an opponent caught charging smash attacks near the edge with than other edge options).
