Bomb Drop (グラウンドボム) is one of Mii Gunner's Down Special Moves. The Mii Gunner shoots a small bomb out of their arm cannon that rolls forward a short distance. It will explode if it collides with an opponent or after a set amount of time.

Overview[]

Strengths:

  • Good edge-guarding tool
  • Good for disrupting frontal approaches
  • Can be dropped from above on below opponents; good aerial approach option
  • Can be integrated into combos

Weaknesses:

  • Not much range
  • Only one bomb can be out at a time

Bomb Drop is a great move for players that want a special move that can be easily used as a good tool in many situations. It works well as an edge-guarding tool, dropping it on the edge to pressure opponents that are on the edge or dropping it off the edge to hit low-recovering opponents. The move is also easy to integrate into combos, dropping the bomb on prone opponents to cause them to pop up into the air for an aerial follow-up attack. It does not have much range on it but when used in the air the ball will fall down, increasing the range of the move. The bomb drop is also a good aerial approach attack because many opponents will be expecting an aerial attack rather than a down special. The move can only have one bomb out at a time, but each bomb explodes after a set time if it misses, which helps out the rate at which this move can be used at in succession. On the ground the bomb can disrupt frontal approaches by enemies.
