Wings of Icarus

Wings of Icarus is Pit's third jump. If Pit is knocked off the stage, he can then activate Wings of Icarus. This makes his wings glow a blue color, and gives him the ability to fly for a short period of time. It appears as if this move allows Pit to make any number of additional midair jumps for a short duration, but he cannot use other B moves while this is occurring. Upon completion, Pit can segue into a glide.

This move is arguably the best recovery move in the game, as Pit is capable of flying up past the upper death line (but not getting ringed out because he is not in a stunned animation), and flying around the bottom of most stages with this move alone. He can even pull off the Reverse Hyrule Jump with just using this move alone.

The only downside to this move is that while using this move, if Pit is hit, he cannot use it again until he lands.
