I'm having trouble with this match up, mostly I never seem to find a window for punishes or when to start challenge him and throw my moves out, mostly I just get owned by his aerial game.

This match up is stated as -2, I feel like it's -3 when I play it.

I need some advice on this one.

You want to stay out of Marth's tipper range. So either really passively outside or inside past his zone would be key. Shielding is also good when you find yourself in his tip range. up throw and d-throw onto a ledge might work since Marth's weakness is below him. He has few options, especially when you're at an angle, outside of DAIR and Air dodge. I'd recommend uairing if he's above since you can outrange his dair. Also, be sure to learn your auto cancels and baiting.
