Some in-depth information on Down-Tilt:
D-Tilt doesn't have fixed knockback, so its frame advantage is affected by Rage and the victim's percents. Higher knockback pushes people away further (duh), but because its knockback is so small until you get to 150+%, it doesn't put people into tumble, which means it cannot be DI'd.
On shield, D-Tilt gives -11 frame advantage, but your hand is not a grabbable hurtbox, so we're working with something like Meta Knight/Pikachu D-Tilt in terms of general safety here, as it takes seven frames to drop a shield normally. You're vulnerable to some Up-Bs out of shield if not well-spaced, though, because your hand is still hittable.
Wario's D-Tilt has two hitboxes: One at the glove that sends opponents at a 46-degree angle and one at the finger that sends opponents at a 67-degree angle. Same power and knockback, but the glove hitbox has priority over the finger one. The following numbers all assume 0% Rage with a fresh D-Tilt with the close hitbox. and they're pretty dependent on weight and fall speed (fall speed can sometimes mean we don't get the couple frames of landing lag to exploit). Generally speaking, the lower those are, the better frame advantage we have.
At +5, D-Tilt -> D-Tilt, D-Tilt -> Dash Attack, and D-Tilt into Half Waft are true combos. The last one has to be right on top of the opponent or a run turnaround D-Tilt.
At +8, D-Tilt -> Jab, D-Tilt -> Dash Grab, and D-Tilt -> D-Smash are true combos. The last one has to be right on top of the opponent or a run turnaround D-Tilt.
Some characters who are hit by D-Tilt can buffer a command before they touch the ground. Because you can only buffer one command at a time, and buffer priority is Special > Shield > Attack > Jump, opponents attempting to Shield, Grab, or Roll will buffer an airdodge, giving you 20 more frames of vulnerability than normal (compared to the two extra from landing lag). Have you ever landed D-Tilt -> F-Smash before? It's likely because of this. Only a handful of characters have this property at any range, but many more have it from a D-Tilt that hits at the tip. Here's a list that shows what characters it works on:
