Don't Die from buffering

Read that thread, replace A with back+A ASAP if you even SUSPECT that your shielded attack will push you off the ledge.

/lost a game due to a buffered fair.

NEVER AGAIN WILL I LET THAT HAPPEN!

You should tell the Ike boards too. Jab -> Nair is so annoying. =/

I hate it when that happens.

yeah dude naircides are gay!
btw, can it be up+A also? sometime snake turns around and i might do a fair again....so uair seems safer to me (?)

I do the fair sd's all the time. I hate it

this happened to me twice in one match.

Yea, this is why I turn buffer off in B+

Thanks for posting this.

wait can someone explain this to me in simpler terms please? im confused at all of this.

This is how I interpreted this. You're shielding at the edge and want to ftilt or jab OOS. Or you jab/ftilt the opponent and the opponent sheilds and you're pushed off the stage as a result (/run-on sentence). The opponent is close to you and pushes you off stage. Right when you're pushed off stage, you press A (jab) or forward A (ftilt). Since you're pushed off, you end up falling to your death doing the time consuming nair or fair. So what SuSa proposes is if you think you're about to be pushed off or are being pushed off, press back A to do a bair. This way, you have time to recover and don't fall to your death doing a nair of fair. Perhaps up A too, since Uair is pretty quick relatively.

I find this useful cause I've had my fair share of fair-ing to death and nair-ing to death as a SD.
