Recovery: Difference between revisions

||Wolf is more limited in recovery options than Fox and Falco.  His side special, [[Wolf Flash]], covers much less ground than Fox's but more than Falco's, though it gives a fair amount of vertical recovery.  His up special provides him fast directional recovery, but he falls almost straight down after using it, and it has the worst accuracy and smallest ledge sweetspot of the three, though it also has less start-up lag; therefore, harder to edge-guard.  

||Yoshi's [[Egg Throw]] in ''Brawl'' gives him a slight hop in midair, but his air dodge recovery is no longer useful.

Alternate specials: The High Jump custom move allows Yoshi to increase the vertical distance of his recovery, but it does not throw any eggs, favoring for a better third jump. The move can technically be used for recovery three times but the forced delay between usages makes him fall to the point where it won't be usable to increase vertical distance after the first time, only useful for horizontal recovering.

||[[Zelda]]'s recovery comes mainly in the form of her long-ranged up special, [[Farore's Wind]]. Additionally, she can use [[Din's Fire]] to glide horizontally short distances, much like [[Peach]]'s [[float]]. However, these moves cannot be combined as they each put Zelda into helpless animation. However, Farore's Wind is limited in direction because the number of different angles at which the move travels is low, making the move predictable.

||Despite the far distance Farore's Wind gains, her recovery is considered unreliable; Zelda lacks any real alternate recovery move, and the angles at which Farore's Wind travels are very limited, while completely killing all of Zelda's momentum upon completion (she'll fall straight down after completion for a fair distance). As such, the move is very predictable, while requiring precision to grab the ledge with. The move also has very long start-up lag, making it easily edge-guarded. If Zelda lands directly on the stage after using Farore's Wind, she suffers from long ending lag, making the move easily punishable.  

||Zelda drifts slightly upward if the player holds the left stick up while activating Farore's Wind.  This increases the potential range of the move, but can also lead to angling the move incorrectly if the drift was unintentional.  In addition, the move has significantly greater damage and launch potential than it did in ''Brawl'', and gains even more distance if used shortly after a double jump.

||Zero Suit Samus has two tether recoveries. [[Plasma Whip]] can be used for horizontal recovery, and [[Plasma Wire]] can be used for vertical recovery. [[Flip Jump]] can also provide her with an extra boost to recover with. Flip Jump can help in offensive recovery in the sense that she can [[Meteor Smash]] an opponent by attacking during it and is useful if one is in a situation where a tether recovery will not work. However, if she uses tether recovery 3 times without touching the ground, the tether recovery will not work on a fourth time.   

||The new [[Boost Kick]] is an upward recovery move with decent height, and with added KO potential to boot.
