How to Play Ike in a Surprising Way

One thing you should keep note of, is that down throw into Up B is not confirmed and can be DI'd even at very low percents. You should do up throw into Up B. It has less lag, and it true combos on most of the cast. You can even mix it up and do down throw empty jump wait for the air dodge, and re grab then do up throw into up b for crazy damage. Also, you did not mention that you can move the direction slightly during his Up B. Great start, but you should add more.
Change "hitstuns" to "DI". Otherwise this is a very short guide that covers an already pretty well known combo. Half of Ike's recovery was covered a bit, but you neglected to cover the other half which is his side-b.

Sorry, but the guide leaves a lot to be desired.
A nice start, but you should expand on it more. Like you leave a lot of good moves/options unmentioned. Also when facing someone with counter how do you deal with recovery? If you throw the sword for Ike's Up special you will get countered and knocked away. I wrote a guide for Ike you might want to look at. I'm not saying mine is perfect, but I think it covers more information that you could use.
This should really be a Forums post, because of only the one combo. Not bad, and has good and well explained info, but a guide should have more combos. Very short.
