Pit

Pit (ピット, Pit) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. All Stars. His return to the series was confirmed on August 23rd, 2018 during the E8 2018 Nintendo Direct. Instead of retaining Lani Minella as his voice actor from the English version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Pit is now voiced by Antony Del Rio in the English version of SSB All Stars, who reprises his role from the English version of Kid Icarus: Uprising. Minami Takayama, who voiced Pit in the Japanese versions of Brawl and Uprising, also reprises her role.

Pit is currently ranked 30th/31st out of 58 on the tier list, placing him in the C tier and tying him with his clone, Dark Pit. This is a drop from his placement in Brawl, where he was ranked 17th out of 38. The number of differences between the Pits, is extremely small, yet somewhat noticeable: Pit's forward tilt and Palutena Bow are stronger and much more maneuverable than Dark Pit's forward tilt and Silver Bow, respectively. Conversely, Silver Bow is stronger than Palutena Bow and Electroshock Arm is a more reliable KOing option compared to Pit's Upperdash Arm.

Outside of these differences, both Pits share the same primary strengths and weaknesses. They have useful combo games, very good approaches, long-distanced recoveries, and strong edgeguarding potentials. However, their unimpressive KO potentials force them to be largely reliant on their forward smashes, forward throws, Upperdash/Electroshock Arms, and aggressive edgeguarding in order to score KOs.

While Pit has a small playerbase, he has nonetheless managed to achieve a decent level of success, thanks to Earth winning a number of regional tournaments, while he, Kuro and KiraFlax have collectively achieved a number of above average placings at the regional and national levels in both singles and doubles play.
