'''Wings of Icarus''' ({{ja|イカロスの翼 | '''Wings of Icarus''' ({{ja|イカロスの翼}} ''Ikarosu no Tsubasa'') is {{SSBB|Pit}}'s [[up special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. When performed, Pit's wings glow blue and he gains the ability to fly for approximately 3 seconds. This, combined with the fact that, during flight, he can move in any direction, makes this one of the most mobile [[recovery]] moves in the game. For a reference, Pit can pull off the [[Hyrule Jump#Reverse Hyrule Jump|Reverse Hyrule Jump]] using Wings of Icarus alone. | ||

The initial "flash" is able to stop [[projectile]]s, but it'll interrupt the move. It also [[push]]es enemies and [[item]]s away. When used on the ground, it'll make Pit travel a slightly longer distance. | The initial "flash" is able to stop [[projectile]]s, but it'll interrupt the move.

When Pit lands on the ground, he'll be able to use Wings of Icarus again. Although it'll take some time - approximately 2 seconds - until the move's "power" is restored. If it's used again before it's fully "charged", the total flying time limit will be shorter. The minimum limit is around 1 second. | |||
