Mario brings out a cape and swings it in front of him, [[reflect]]ing [[projectile]]s and [[reverse|reversing]] hit [[character]]s. | |||
The cape can flip [[shield]]ing opponents. Also, the cape will briefly reverse an opponent's momentum. Shortly after an opponent is flipped in the opposite direction, if they make a directional input such as a forward [[roll]], they will instead roll backwards. This seems to affect most, (including [[buffer]]ed), inputs made while being caped. | The cape can flip [[shield]]ing opponents. Also, the cape will briefly reverse an opponent's momentum.

'''Super Sheet''' ({{ja|スーパーシーツ|Sūpā Shītsu}}, ''Super Sheet'') | '''Super Sheet''' ({{ja|スーパーシーツ|Sūpā Shītsu}}, ''Super Sheet'') [[Dr. Mario]]'s version of Cape. It is slightly larger, does slightly more damage (up to 12% rather than 10%), and has less lag. Its only disadvantage is that Super Sheet only moves Dr. Mario upwards once in ''Melee'', and not at all in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', making it less useful as a recovery. | ||
===Glitches=== | |||
*When Mario uses his Cape on an enemy that is increasing their height (jumping, mid-air jump, recoveries, footstool jump etc), the enemy will increase their height much higher than normal. | |||
*If Cape hits an opponent about to [[Sweet spot (ledge)|sweetspot]] a ledge, the target will go into a ledge grab animation in the opposite direction. The opponent's edge recovery will also be performed in reverse, after which the glitch ends. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqOZ2P4VCmY] | |||

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'' the Cape is a power-up obtained from the {{s|mariowiki|Cape Feather}}, which transforms Mario into {{s|mariowiki|Cape Mario}}. While wearing a Cape, Mario can perform a spinning attack, using it to attack enemies and destroy most projectiles. The cape can also be used to fly great distances after a running start and float softly back to earth when falling. With enough speed it grants Mario the ability to glide through the air, and by diving and pulling up at regular intervals one could stay airborne indefinitely; this might have inspired the Cape's ability to stall in midair in ''Smash''. | |||
