Greenhorn Peach main. I feel as if I am not utilizing her movement option correctly and was wondering if I could get any tips especially in the neutral game.

I was gonna write something, but I think it'd be easier just to show you some quality Peach movement from one of my fave Peach players: Mr. Excel Zero.

Excel_Zero doing his thing. Pick your poison.

Floating in the neutral is generally unsafe. Everything else is good: Recovery, tech chases, reads, and mixups. I wouldn't use it for baiting unless you can get away with it.

I would suggest that it's not too difficult to get away with it: you can float in and out of your opponents range, all the while facing them. This could potentially bait out attacks which you can punish, or retreating fairs/nairs depending on the situation.

Yup

Dont use it in Nuetral. Her ground options are much stronger and faster and you dont want to give up shield in Nuetral.

Especially when approaching Sword and Projectile happy characters.

I see a lot of people covering ledges with retreating floating Fairs which is something Id like to work on

Float is good, really good for edgeguard and baiting. FCs are really good too. You can also space dairs with it, something that is really good with Peach, I feel.
