So I, like many other marth players, started by watching videos. Inevitably we all saw the ken comboes, the fair to dair. However, in actual matches its much harder to pull off because everyone knows about it and does their best not to get hit by a humiliating ken combo.
So my question is how to modify the normal fair at center, full jump into a dair so it works more often against opponents who know how to DI. My problem usually is that if i get that sweetspotted fair, they DI away and I can't hit them with the dair without endangering my chances of comign back onto the stage.
I was thinking about it and some options might be:
1) Hit with a different part of the fair, still near the center so that they pop up, but at a different angle from what they expect
2) Jump and then DI that jump left/right to catch the person in the dair's sweetspot
Dunno if these are really valid or not. Help please.
