I was playing my brother's G&W when I decided to mess around with Counter. At 1:00 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qy3HO3Ix5o), he got stagespiked by it.
My question is this: does this seem good enough to go for consistently against G&W? I cannot find a more effective way to edgeguard him; his up+B is too fast and has a large hibox, and in general he goes too high to be edgehogged.
Also: do you think there are any other characters that can be edgeguarded like this, if G&W does turn out to be susceptible to it? I think you should be able to do it to Luigi when he tries using the tornado, but I would personally rather use Eruption or DTilt. I tried testing MK earlier, but it seemed like either Shuttle Loop was too fast or the hitbox was too small (so by the time Counter activated, he was already gone) :(. Can someone re-test it?
