The Back Shield (バックシールド, Back Shield) is a unique item from the Kid Icarus series, introduced in Super Smash Bros. 4 and returns in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
In Super Smash Bros. 4
As an item
As the name would suggest, the item protects the fighter's rear from harm. The shield lasts for 30 seconds, with time reduced based on how much damage it has taken (5 Home-Run Bat swings at 30% damage reduces it by about 5 seconds, for example).Some fighters can also take advantage of their back aerials as they won't be damaged from colliding with another fighter's attack. There is a slight push effect near the shield.
In Smash Tour
The Back Shield appears as a red item: when selected, it makes the user start a battle with the Back Shield equipped.
In-game description from Super Smash Bros. for 3DS
This shield protects your back from various attacks. However, it'll break if it takes too much damage.
Trophy information
This durable, defensive shield comes to Smash Bros. from Kid Icarus: Uprising. If you pick it up, it will attach itself to you, protecting your back from most threats. It won't stop grabs or piercing attacks, however, and it only lasts so long before vanishing.
A floating shield from Kid Icarus: Uprising. Pick it up and it'll protect you from attacks from behind. It's not perfect, though, as it can't block grabs or piercing attacks. Still, it'll block any standard attacks until it eventually disappears, so it's a pretty useful thing to get your hands on!
: Kid Icarus: Uprising (03/2012)
==In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
As an item
The Back Shield returns in Ultimate. It remains relatively the same as it's previous appearance.
Origin
The Back Shield originated as an item in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Much like in SSB4, it temporarily protects Pit from enemy attacks from behind and it rotates with Pit to always be behind him.
