(Short Hop Back Aerial)

I'm not sure when to be using this technique, as opposed to a forward Aerial or something of the sort.

The Bair is really his best aerial and it is much better for comboing ( or chaining if you are caught up on the fact that is isn't a true combo.) than the Fair while the Fair is better as a KO move. Use the Bair to combo or when you opponent is behind you and you want a quick attack.

in short, it's useful all the time. I mainly attack with the sh bair because you can always pull it back if you dont hit to avoid being shield thrown. and if you hit, it combos nicely into more bairs or another aerial. I've just found that good things happen when i use sh bair.

Whenever you hit the jump button, Toon Link's Bair should be used.

Whenever you're thinking about jumping, Toon Link's Bair should be used, and already playing out in your mind.

And most importantly, whenever you're questioning when Toon Link's SHBA should be used, it should be used.

Really though, it's a very useful move in his offense and defense. Great range, priority, damage, and knockback. Virtually lagless, and chains together well.
