Bow of Palutena. Simple, effective, drives people crazy, great for setting up potential combos.

It's Pit's staple weapon and it has a strong presence in the lore. And bows are just cool in the first place regardless~

I actually killed a fox player by shooting him with that making him fall off the edge while shooting so he didn't have time to recover

Pits Dair is godly , I get at least 60% of all my kills with it.
Meteor smash into meteor smash/footstool is a broken combo.
Personally I've managed 3 meteor smashes into a footstool on an unsuspecting Robin killing him at 30%
Pits Dair is one of the least laggiest meteor smashes so if you cant follow em just hover in the air with your multiple jumps and wait for them to try come back while you guard the ledge.

I think I'll go with N-air... Instant startup, super wide hitbox, medium knockback for follow-ups, and no landing lag at all if auto-canceled. Oh, and the whole animation is really cool. It also has an interesting fast-fall attribute. If you fast-fall while hitting, enemies don't follow the attack so they just twitch. Good for mindgames, and gimping some characters like leaf shield does. It's an amazingly versatile aerial.

Honorable mentions for F-tilt, D-air, and F-smash. F-tilt looks cool with huge range, and has satisfying tippers like Marth. Rising D-airs for attacking safely, and it can meteor smash and even combo into an U-smash KO if they don't tech the meteor on the ground. And I think F-smash is one of the best in the game (and he does a cool pose after it lol).

If only F-Smash had a little bit less lag :s

DSmash, while it doesn't kill early, is a REALLY fast move.

It's awesome!

Animation wise I love F-smash and Up-tilt. Just look at it up close on training mode at 1/4 speed. It's sooooo cool.

Use wise it's almost impossible for me to decide since I pretty much love all his moves. But I'll go for Bair and Palutena's Arrow because getting a tippered Bair kill when edge-guarding feels so damn good and snipping people to their deaths is extremely fun.

I love F-Smash... I actually did look at the slowed down animation at some point. I used to like it mostly because of the cool pose Pit does after it, but I saw how awesome the animation is... Slashing with a twin blade, spinning around and seamlessly combining it into the bow while delivering a strike, then posing. But dang, the spin thing happens so fast you can barely tell otherwise.

I used to think he only did 2 slashes with the swords kind of like Link' F-smash because of how fast he spins. If it wasn't because I noticed the bow was always together by the end of the move I would have never though about slowing down the attack to see what really was happening lol

The F-tilt. It spaces, it damages and it kills. And the animation though; dat scissor-slash :212::212::212: ;33

Also the heroic pose of F-smash was mentioned by various people here. I am mesmerised specifically by the pose struck while charging F-smash; it makes :4pit::4darkpit: look bold and fierce! ;d

Would it be wrong of me to say Ftilt?
EERHHH HELL NO?! One will subdue to the subtle yet fierce sway of the F-tilt 'scissors'.. Do not try to resist this allure, because that'd be futile. Instead, embrace the move and yield to its majesty..

Forward smash has some good range and is a reliable kill move.

And arrow sniping is a great tool to stop characters like Robin or Samis from charging their neutral specials.

U-tilt is definitely the coolest looking one. It's like some angel fighting style with them kicks. Honorable mention to F-smash for looks.
I really don't know which one I like best for its usefulness though. It'll probably come to me in the future.

Let's be honest. We all were shocked by how awesome Pit's Final Smash was when it was revealed. Not only do you get to rain arrows of destruction, you get to use JESUS BEAMS!

Yeah couldn't agree more! Nair is my favorite as well since its really safe and its so satisfying to land all of the hits with! Also Dsmash is also really good thanks to its crazy speed (seriously its so fast that even if someone is close to you, you can dodge almost immediately!) and it has like no ending lag (so you can instantly use this move again for some mind games!). Also pit's normal jab (without the infinite and finisher) is actually really good and has good range and can even combo! That's all I have for now. I'm still learning with the character but I like his play style.

I've just started playing with Pit, but I really like his F-tilt. Also, that Upperdash Arm is just...wow.

...Which is pretty much what everybody says here.

Favorite move on Pit is Palutena's Bow. I've improved (SO MUCH) with the aiming and it feels so good to land a fully charged one :awesome:

Punishing with upper dash arm is the best feeling in the world.

U-air. It racks up damage and it can combo into itself so easily.

Upperdash arm, hands down. I just love spamming that move, even though I get rekt for doing it. That BAM sound you get for connecting makes all the punishment worth it, haha! Unfortunately, I don't use it as much as I'd want to because I am trying to learn to play competitively, but still.

Anyway, taking competitive considerations into account...nair. I love using it with people right in the center and hitting with all the hitboxes. Not to mention it's so good at just catching people in the air.

I like using N-air. It's not flashy or anything but it's usually a good and safe follow-up plus it's a decently sized hitbox so landing it isn't that much of a problem, especially in a short hop.

My favorite one of his moves would have to be that awesome Upperdash Arm. That's about it.
