I like to do a few things either jump Nair. Tap away to a jump Bair. Or just a normal ledge attack.

if they're right on the edge, typically, the safest thing is a back-jump-nair, since it'll autocancel as you hit the ground, letting you react out of it first more often. alternately, if it's dangerous to jump in their face even with an autocancel, you can down-jump-uair-regrab to eat their shield some then hope for pokes.

if they're further back, i mix up with either down-jump-fair to space and regrab, if they're not actively advancing, or i drop-jump arrow-jump arrow-regrab to keep them in place a bit more.

COming back up with a uair is what i like to do best. I get a free hit and if they block i can just re grab the edge.

I like to get back on stage with the following aerial moves:

Uair: The best to use when I am trying to get back on stage and hit the opponent because of the long time it stays. Also it hits strait up while your jumping so you have a higher chance to hit the opponent while jumping up.

Bair: This is the hardest to pull of but if you do you'll have a great amount of room for you to get back on safely. Its better to do this when the opponent has high percentages because it could even lead to your kill.

Fair: Fair is easy to use and quick, it is the best to use if you want to have good timing.

Overall, I use uair the most.. also i sometimes jump and arrow spam to bring the opponent close and then use an aerial attack.
