Disadvantage:

Ledge

• Watch out for zair>dair.
• will throw out active hit boxes to cover ledge options.
• Can't punish waiting effectivley except with zair.
• If dtilting or dash attacking ledge then drop down nair will work very well.
• Don't roll because of grabs, up b, dash attack, etc.
• Regular getup through zair then up b could work well.

Juggling

• Can keep you in the air with nair, upair, down b.
• Don't dair at high percents because of down b invincibility.
• Best to go offstage to recover.
• SDI and DI away to get out of combos.

Advantage

Ledge

• Bacon works very well against him.
• Dash attack works well to keep him offstage and 2 frame up b.
• Dair can spike him with a 2frame.
• Ledgetrump nair or dair.

Offstage

• Bair works very well. Beats out his side b, just watch out for misfires.
• Drag down nair and bair can get him low enough to force an option or to kill.
• Dair if you have a jump and are high enough if needed.
• If you misread an option go back to ledge to get jump back and go for more bairs.
• If he gets above you use up-b to get him further offstage.
• Nair and bair and dair to deal with low recoveries.

Juggling

• Bad disadvantage in the air. Abuse it with nair, upair, bair, up-b.
• Doesn't have many options aside from airdodging to get out of juggles.
• Catch landings with dash attack or bair.
• Airdodge is laggy and his best option so bait it out and nair it or bair it.
• Avoid getting too close because of down b. If he's fast falling then nair and if he's at a distance then up air.

Misc.

• They're going to mash down b out of hitstun. Frame 1 invinicibilty.
• Watch out for zair, fireball, grab mixups.
• Don't touch his shield at all.
• Grab is pretty slow so he can't punish OoS at a distance too well.

Stages:

Battlefield

• Good for camping plats.
• Big blast zones.

Final Destination:

• Always ban.

Town and City

• Always ban.

Smashville:

• Good stage overall. Camp under the platform with chef when at an advantage.
• Good platform to camp at 0%.
• Platform makes it harder for him to land. Easier to punish up-b.

Pokemon Stadium 2:

• Pretty neutral. Okay to start here but wouldn't go back. Big blast zones help him more than they help me.

Yoshi's Story:

• Can be okay for both sides. Both die earlier.
• Avoid it in general though because of down b, nair, and upair killing earlier.

Lylat:

• Avoid heavily.
• Hard to break zone of aerials and grabs and zairs due to low platforms. Very hard to land and take stage control.
• Can gimp him so he probably won't take you there but always keep in mind.
• Ledges close to blastzones. Somewhat low ceiling.

Kalos:

• Platforms good for edgeguarding.
• Can dair if he's close to the stage while offstage.
• Higher ceiling so down b and up b won't kill as early.
