Footstool Jump
The Footstool Jump is a new technique in SSBB. When a character is directly above another character, they can press the jump button to bounce off of the character's head, similar to Mario jumping on a Goomba. When used in midair, it also functions as a Meteor Smash. It does no damage, and can be used between two and six times in succession (depending on the character), with each jump resulting in approximately half the rebound. Teammates can also footstool jump each other. Like a normal jump, this jump can be Short Hopped.
Characters who are asleep can not be Footstool Jumped.
The move is very similar to one seen in Kirby Super Star and in Kirby And The Amazing Mirror, where one player is able to get a large jump by doing so off of their partner's or another Kirby's head.
Infinite footstool combos on ROB
Captain Falcon and Zero Suit Samus can do an infinite footstool combo on [[ROB (SSBB)|ROB). The Captain Falcon one is hit with the first hit of his neutral aerial, then immediately fast fall and after footstooling ROB and repeat. The Zero Suit Samus one is hitting with her down smash and after footstooling and quickly after using her down aerial to when ROB goes up (which is the only option at an uncontrollable time) down smashing again and repeating with the footstool combo.
