I have a question about the ditto. How can I avoid UpB? It seems I get killed early most of the time and it semms this is the only way my oponent gets a KO on me. How can I deal with this thanks.

Oh yeah I forget your MK is known for being beast at the ditto, or in general.

Oh wait...

I would quit the game(I already did but that's beside the point) before using diddy, **** that character. vato does use him though last I knew
I meant beat Mike at all, but k.

If you get popped up are you're expecting him to Shuttle you, just jump Dair, you'll punish him and be completely safe.
Or, ya know, airdodge it.

Tornado spamming is the worst thing MK can do even against **** like DK. It needs to be used smartly like every other move to be broken. A stupid amount of people don't seem to realize lol.

What do you guys think about drill rush as an offensive move? I mean, don't get me wrong, its terrible in most situations, but it can shield stab really well and if it hits at higher percents it can set up for Uair frame traps. It could be a possible option after Nadoing someone's shield away.

Just thinking outside the box a lil. :3

it can work if you know specific things that it beats(for instance it beats MK's glide attack so if you see them gliding you can use it sometimes), and it can be edge canceled. sometimes I do it if I read someone rolling backward or something too but its uses are somewhat limited

I do silly things with Drill Rush from time to time by acting like I'm going to DRush to the ledge then curve it up and hit my opponent waiting on the stage. It works surprisingly well and it can trip or put them in enough hit stun where you can Dsmash or grab after DRushing into them if you do it right (curve it into the ground, best results at lower percent)

Drill rush goes through SV. So if timed right you can Clip a Pit of his up b if he is like directly under sv, and his head is grazing against the ceiling

Great! I'm glad drill rush can be useful in at least a few situations.

Does anyone ledge cancel drill rush ever? I find it useful once in a blue moon.

If you can get it to ledge cancel and your opponent is either in shield near the ledge or is hit you get a guaranteed Nair, Dair, or Tornado on them. And the tornado will almost always poke since drill rush eats their shield away.

I drive it over the ledge, tilt it down and autoswap the ledge.
It is useful for ledgeguarding or just randomly poke shields lol.

I haven't played much, but a little. They can do stupid GR stuff to use, but nothing to worry about. You can gimp him with ease when you get comfortable with her recovery, at first it might feel a little weird.
I also suggest jumping over her needles, we got those jumps for a reason.
And play the beginning of the stock like against Falco, don't get grabbed or tilted or it's gonna suck.

After you are at 80%, they can't do **** lol.

That's all I know actually lol.

Yeah, but they won't.
Lmao you're ********


@Boofy
I've played against some Sheiks here and there in tourney, as funny as it sounds, just do some Meta Knight **** and you'll be fine. She's mid tier for a reason and if you just abuse your gay stuff you'll be fine.

Sheiks will dacus GR kill you once they have the chance, count on it and don't take it lightly. Her Ftilt is pretty gay but you just have SDI it and Shuttle. Also watch out for random dacus' across stage, it's her best killing move besides her Up-B's starting explosion, which they'll also use as a mind game and a kill move. Idk, like I said I don't know what I should be doing, I just get in their face, do my thing, and win lol

What can reliably beat both a dash into shield-grab/sidestep approach from kirby? I was thinking Tornado, but I know they're gonna figure it out and Fsmash me for it eventually. Q_Q Same thing with Ftilt. They can just hold shield and **** me for it.

All I can think of is like... charged Fsmash.
