Try mixing up some SHFFLd Nairs or a charged down b? If you manage to get behind them, your spin puts pressure on the shield and you can jump out to do more Nairs or Dairs or something. Not a whole lot of options, but you gotta be creative, and Always gotta go fast.

Yeah, his spin attack is a very good way to pressure shields in a safe-ish way. Also, in a lot of cases you only need to pressure a small amount as his homing attack will hit taller characters out of their shield such as Lucario, Bowser, Captain Falcon. I never have an issue with the build up of damage or the pressure. I always have issues getting that kill hit. -.-
