    - Useful for starting and/or extending combos
    - Good for edge guarding

    - Note: the hitbox does not match the move's visual

• Back Air
  - Hitbox Active: 10-12
  - Base Damage: 12/8%
  - FAF: 41
  - Landing Lag: 8
  - Autocancel: 28<
  - On Shield: -4/-5 (short hop), -3/-4 (full hop)

  - Angle: 43/66°
    - Best aerial for shield pressure

• Up Air
  - Hitbox Active: 10-11, 13-14, 16-17, 19-20, 22-23

    - Good for pressuring opponents on platforms and shield poking
    - Dthrow -> DD up air confirms into usmash or fsmash. Land with the small hitbox under Pit's head or the 2 side hitboxes (they combo). Landing with the 2 side hitboxes combos into fsmash (opposite side combo into fsmash into the opposite direction) and the middle top hitbox is minus on hit if you land with it.
    - R.O.B. is the easiest character to practice this on, and a platform isn't necessary for DD up air > fsmash, but it is required for DD up air > usmash, as well as makes it easier.

    - Note: On grounded opponents, the sweetspot is unsafe on hit at low %

    - Linear recovery with no hitbox
    - Can grab ledges starting on frame 24
    - Will ride walls if used at an angle, allowing for timing mixups
    -  Note: Pit's special fall drift and special fall landing lag are very poor, so recovering high is often extremely punishable

  - Reflects/Blocks: 7
  - FAF: 40-125
  - Minimum time: 15
  - Release: 19
  - Health: 15%
    - Useful for blocking attacks while landing, but does not protect from directly underneath Pit
