Bomb recoveries are used to extend the horizontal recoveries of Link, Snake, and Samus.
Super Smash Bros. bomb recoveries
It is possible for Samus and Link to recover in Super Smash Bros. using bombs. By using down specials (not hitting herself but rather doing it to a direction) and a reverse Charge Shot, Samus can extend her recovery. Link can also bomb recovery, but this is extremely difficult and almost unusable outside of by slowing the game down, as in using TAS. A bomb can also be thrown into one's self near an edge of the stage to steal a KO from an opponent in time mode.
Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl bomb recoveries
Samus
Samus' bomb recovery is performed by simply using her bomb move in the air, and then laying a second bomb to hit the first and bounce herself upwards. Repeat as desired. This gives Samus the ability to recover easily from any attack, and when combined with techniques such as Samus' Grapple Beam and Rising Grapple, edgeguarding her is a serious chore. The bombs come out quicker overall in melee but it is easier to weave around the bombs in Brawl due to the floatiness of the game.
Link
Link's bomb recovery is reasonably difficult, but it is the best way to get the most out of the player's recovery with Link. Lord HDL defines it as follows:
| “ | Bomb Recovery - Third form of recovery that involves tossing a bomb up while falling and immediately using spin attack to hit it in order to perform another spin attack or change direction for hookshot use. Cannot be done by Young Link. | ” |
There are three ways to perform the Bomb Recovery:
- While returning to the stage and falling, throw a bomb upwards, and immediately Spin Attack into it. The bomb should explode allowing Link a second up special, or a Hookshot Recovery (if Link isn't facing away).
- Use his midair jump, and immediately throw the bomb up and Spin Attack.
- Simply drop the bomb while falling, wait a moment, and Spin Attack into it.
If the player can predict it, they could also pull out the Bomb ahead of time and have it explode in his hand after they Spin Attack. Then he can Spin again. This is usually done accidentally, and is the only way for the Links to use bomb recovery in Brawl, since they can no longer slash their own bombs.
Snake
Snake's bomb recovery is very much like Link's. When falling, if a C4 is planted and Snake fast falls and detonates it on himself, he can use Cypher again because it causes flinching.
Peach
It is plausible that Peach can use a Bomb Recovery if she is hit off the stage while holding a Bob-omb produced through her down special move. However, this is unlikely and not very useful for a number of reasons; Peach is likely to drop the Bob-omb when she's hit, a Bob-omb would probably KO her directly at such percentages, and Peach's horizontal recovery needs no help. This is also usually used to refer to Peach Bomber stalling, a Melee specific technique to recover.
