I mean like which directions are best for anything that leads to Fair and his Chain Grab combos.
He has a lot of options that lead to a fair tho... uair, utilt, upsmash, dthrow, and dtilt. Dtilt... I guess away. You can't escape dthrow. Mario can wait for the Di and just do it. If you Di behind a decent/bad mario that will save you from time to time tho. Idk about usmash and the other two should be away. If some of those aren't right, just figure it out on your mario friends. For the cg just try to land on a platform or off stage. Spamming up b so you can just dair onto a platform is also an option.
Thanks! I don't play against very many Marios so I am pretty new to the matchup. What about his offstage game? Or any specific area where Mario lacks?
The only place he is lacking, is in his recovery. Its pretty linear. The up b wall jump is practically nonexistent now. He has to already be touching the wall before he does the up b, to get the wall jump. His up b still has 7 frames of invincibility, so you'll have to watch out for that.
