you probably wont use it in a real match almost ever, I have never seen it used in a competetive match, also though I have never used it so I dont want to say its useless but it is something you can win without.

The main grabs you will be using are downthrow > nana up smash, or downthrow > nana forward smash, second to those is downthrow > nana down air.

I beleive the edgegrab is when you have throw your opponent and you grab them with nana, because your close to the edge nana will always forward throw them off and you regrab them and keep doing this to rack up percents, its a situation infinite, I havnt been able to figure out how to really do it with any sort of consistency, my aim is in my profile binxybrown, im rarely on but go ahead and message me if I am.

Saying Wobbles did it once is like saying Jesus could walk on water. The rest of us won't, he's just godly that way.

The edge chaingrab is very usable in tournament. I've used it, Wobbles used it, Chu used it on PC Chris ( with 3 grabs from nana I might add), and I'm sure other IC players like choknater have used it in tourney as well. Sure it's situational, but even if you grab, let's say a Marth facing away from the stage, you reverse d-air chain throw once straight into edge chain throw. The way I see it is there's no reason not to learn it. If the situation comes up you just have another gun in your arsenal.

Makes sense, do you have a link to any vids of it being used in a tourney? I want to see it in action.
