cancel marths down a spike?

[ReDDeFFect]

is there a way i can cancel marths down a spike mid air or on the ground?

With what little experience I've had as marth (and being the meteor machine I am) if the enemy is in front of you, where the tip of the sword would be, and down a connects it will meteor them.
You can always L-cancel after you land by pressing L or R of course, but your question confused me. At least that is the way I learned how to meteor as marth. I also don't know if you're asking how to meteor mash or how to L cancel?!?

at what time do i press l to cancel?

When to is to tap L or R is right as you are about land after you attack. There are a lot of videos about this topic. Any character can do this.
It's really easy to see as Link: Press Down A where the sword is under him, and right as you land/almost landing press L or R. You'll see him pull the sword out twice as fast (or almost). If you do this after you attack it reduces the lag time.
Hope that helps.

pretty much right as you land. try it out for yourself, shorthop a dair and press L as you hit the ground. If he lands and takes a long time to get up, you didn't do it properly. If the animation looks shorter than usual, you probably did.
