#Clip review 2: Edgeguarding?

it was mostly just timing
also you dont have to double jump befoe fair sh dair works, its easier to time as well
alright
crosscode music holy shit
also its a little risky to try to hit dair when they're hugging the wall, since they can walltech->DJ Bair or something
At best, reverse dair is gokd there since it lets you cover a lot of options with your utilt and dstrong and it hits lower than the front hitbox
Secondly, when the zetter did their first up b offstage, you could've just nair'd and pushed your edgeguard from there, fair would work as well even if it's a little commital if you don't drift back
After that sourspot dair that sent up, you could've went for an fstrong there, it sends them a bit of a better angle to recover but it keeps you in advantage state, otherwise utilt can work there as well if you're confident you can find a way to do more damage
And the final dair was unnecessary, you basically could've just waited to see what angle they'd go to and then punish with one of your tilts from there
that's also another situation where nair would've been better if you really wanted to hit them there
You could've finished the stock(or at least be in a better position to do so) if you:
-Timed your options better
-Choose said options more carefully instead of going mainly for dair
-followed up better on the times where you did hit them(in that utilt after the sourspot dair, you went for nair instead of bair, hell a grab there might've been possible there, but nair wasn't the play there)
-Got awareness of the ressources that the other player had and what route he could/will take(On that last up b before they recovered, you really could've just waited at a safe range and send them back offstage before they even got to touch the stage)
This sounds like a lot, but it's about developing the knowledge of those situations to the point where it becomes muscle memory, and you won't even need to think about it, it'll just be a part of your core memory
honestly got greedy after the second dair. at that point i was just going for a dunk.
i guess i got too caught up in keeping him down there that i just completely ignored my other options
will take that advice to heart, altought i feel like all of this just boils down to intuition and instinct
cause this probably wont be the last time im hearing something like this
