Can the Ragnell hit below the ledge with Eruption?

With exceptions to warp recoveries, can Eruption hit recovering enemies from below ground level or will the auto-latch activate before the hitbox?

It's already a losing proposal, but I use it to mix it up a bit(although it doesn't seem to work). The only other option I have to edgeguard people on the ledge is to counter if they do a ledge getup attack or to jump and Fair/Nair(if they jump from the ledge) or to otherwise back up and let them back.

You can hit enemies before their recoveries sweetspot the ledge, yes.

Would anyone mind posting a video showing how it's done using default Eruption? I (along with several others) would really appreciate it.

Any other videos?
The first Eruption kill was more on the side than the bottom and PKT kinda has weird properties. The second kill was way above the ledge.

I've tried countless of times using it against Lucina/Marth and Mario trying different timing and can't seem to do it.
When is super armor active now? I've been getting hit a ton of times out of it compared to Brawl, which would normally trade when I unleash.

I'm also guessing this won't work with tether grabs along with warp recoveries.

If I'm not mistaken, super armor is only applied 75 percent through the charge of Eruption.
