I'm tired of getting pushed off the ledge. Thanks.

How do you shield DI tornado?

hold control stick up-forward and smash cstick down-forward...same number of inputs as qcdi with much less effort
I'm not sure if Diddy's roll is sufficient for that, especially when he's being pressured right at the ledge. Some characters have fast / long enough rolls to be able to powershield the following hits [I kow Pit and Falco are] but I'm not sure whether Diddy will be vulnerable to the rest of the tornado or not [which is probably still better than being trapped at the ledge]. Kind of sucks for Diddy if it doesn't work but who cares. This ********, broken character doesn't deserve any better.

Assuming I understand the mechanics, that's correct.
I have a few theories I want to run by a couple people or test for myself before I definitively conclude anything.
But as of right now, my guess would be that ISSDI on moves with less than 10 frames of shield lag would probably be impossible to ISSDI without buffering a grab because I'm fairly certain a control stick input takes longer than one frame to input an SDI input and then return to neutral and the cstick, while inputting a directional vector for one frame, also buffers attack in the scenario.
All of that assuming you don't get knocked off a ledge while shielding

maybe you should play

spotdodges are vulnerable for 1 frame or 2 before invincibility
rolls are 3 or 4 frames, rolling out of shield stun without getting hit is doable
problem is, as gheb said, we don't know if diddy's roll is long enough to shield tornado if MK follows his roll - it is quick enough though
you can't grab MK out of his tornado if he is pressing B (that shortens the intervall between two hits)
MKs stale tornado doesn't have any hitlag so it's not possible to shield DI that.
MKs fresh tornado has 5 frames of hitlag so it's humanly possible to SDI that at least a bit.
don't get nado'd at the edge
