I feel like doc's reverse bair is an underused combo starter. (Aside from the fact that you are kinda vulnerable, only having hitboxes behind and not in front)
Now it is more useful at lower percent so you can get a follow up but these are just some ideas
-reverse bair into utilt/jab (SHFFL)
Great for continuing/starting a combo after either popping the enemy into the air for a follow up or jab into grab/dsmash/etc
-(offstage)
Useful more on vulnerable up b's such as capt/ganon when the Huggies hitbox is gone, or when spacies are in free fall from their upb. A lot of options present themselves after the reverse bair hits, but my favourite is following up with a reverse upb (hit them with one coin and then turn around to grab the ledge) extra style points for that.
Another side note to do with regular bair that I find is helpful is when you bair them and then either upair right away to intercept their immediate jump kinda like ganons uair (leads to edgeguard, you could also hit them with a reverse upb after the uair to finish then off if they di right) or drift after them once you've hit them with the bair and wait for the inevitable double jump and intercept with uair.
Feel free to leave other ideas below!
