Okay, so i was messing around in training mode and was getting irritated on how sometimes my F air would rock, and other times it didn't. I was looking at different guides and stuff about ganon and none really brought it up.
So i got it figured out now in case anyone else wants to know.
This move covers basically everything in front of ganon, from above to below as well. Now if this move connects with the top half, its kinda crappy, still decent damage but kinda crappy and why i think most of us avoid using it.
Now, if you connect with it anywhere between the bottom half of this move, it hits like a truck. Test it for yourself, it kills meta knight at 50% at the side of final destination. To hit grounded targets hard i find it easier to start high and NOT fast fall so it drops on their head.
This move, although laggier on finish i am starting to think is stronger than it was before!
Oh and i am posting this cause i did a lot of reading on ganon and never saw this so in case anyone else was in the dark i think they should know too.

Okay im almost 100% sure i was wrong. The reason i THOUGHT it was ownage at the bottom half was simply because of ganon's size and me trying to line up the attack with my enemy.
What seems to be right is that it has nothing to do with location or timing, but distace. If this move connects and it eats your for-arm, shoulder or body, its weak. If it hits with fist-only, its beast.
I feel bad i gave out wrong-info so im trying to correct it. Ive tested it a lot more and it really is his fist. The attack itself is short on the upward ark and pretty long on the bottom arc, so its easier to do at the bottom because his arm is stretched so much further.
This move comes out fast, but has bad starting lag and nasty ending lag, so do it in the air when options for your target is most limited. There is no room for failure with this on the ground, and since ganon's mobility is ***, i wouldnt even bother.
Anyways i was testing with %s and it KO's bowser, the heaviest dude in the game, at 80% if you are near the side of final destination (still on the stage!). Practice makes perfect, do it.
Now to work on reverse Down-B air spike >:3
