I don't think people realize how good foot stooling is in this game. Obviously a lot of us are used to the sexiest combo (Bair>Foot Stool> Dair> Dair Pogo> Option Select) but footstool can be used for so much more. I am sure a lot of players are aware of some of its uses but I thought I would just share my input.
DI up out of Pikachu's fair and footstool pika.
: If he lands next to you
:
: This can be done after olimar's nair
: This can be done after fox's dair
Like I stated earlier, I found all of this out during tournament play and even though this is something simple, it is just another mix up that will help us out in the long run.

Ok so, there are some characters like ICs, MK, Kirby, etc., who like to try and grab TL after we have exhausted all of our jumps. I will use ICs for now since this will be easier for all of you to understand.
IC mains like to look for patterns vs TL mains in order to get the grab. I feel like we, as TL mains, can keep out the IC mains pretty easily, but something that I have done against the ICs (besides bombing them to hell and back) is falling next to them and then I like to DI right on top of the ICs and footstool them so that I can escape. I like to just try and beat on the ICs and avoid having to footstool them, but you now have 2 characters that you can footstool (either nana or popo).

Simple and to the point. Footstool the opponent, throw the bomb down and use Uair/Fair/Dair.

I had some other things that I wanted to put on this thread but I can't wrap my head around all of my thoughts at the moment.
Foot Stooling Characters!
Now, I am sure there are more characters that we can do this to but I am 100% positive that we can foot stool these characters OoS and use a dair immediately (this is based on game play with other players.).

Foot Stooling as an "Evasive" option!
