Fire Bar: Difference between revisions

The '''Fire Bar''' is an [[item]] in the upcoming ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It is a battering item that deals [[flame]] damage. It appears to shrink as the result of hitting other players.

Firebars first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' as obstacles that damage the player, and firebars have appeared in numerous ''[[Mario (universe)|Mario]]'' games since. In the ''Mario'' games, firebars are rods of fireballs that rotate on a block and typically appear in castle levels. Rather than the firebar rotating in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', it is stationary and is used as a battering item. Unlike in ''Mario'' games, the fireballs disappear after each time a player is hit. The design of the block of the firebar item is based on their design in contemporary 3D ''Mario'' games, while the fire is based on the design of fireballs from ''Super Mario Bros.''
