Yoshinator really makes this hard since he hasn't left many combos out of his guide lol.

A nifty combo I've seen is jab to down b. It's not really a 'combo' per se since it doesn't really chain into one another, but it's good to use against opponents at high percents that just live in their shield. It's a good mindgame to bring the person out of their shield to find themselves getting caught in his down b.

I didn't see dair to footstool in the guide, but thats a good one to use also. :)

Dair to footstool jump definitely leaves your opponent going "..."

Also, a pretty good "combo" would be just hitting people off the edge and using Egg Toss, I found that it racks up pretty good damage; and who knows, you might get lucky and kill your opponent.

a combo that seems to be doing well for me as of late is dash attack to neutral A x2 or x3 to dash attack. it usually causes a trip (they land on their back or whatever) so you have the time to dash back into them. it usually works best at mid damage so that they don't fly too far or too short and if it does you can repeat all the way across the map.

i also love bair to upsmash to egg toss, but i'm sure that's been mentioned already. sometimes though the upsmash doesn't work. i don't believe missing with the upsmash is a matter of DI cause it works prly like 40% and people know it's coming. the egg toss can be dodged, but they usually don't think to do so and it leaves them falling in front of you.

it's in there, under the dair section =D

dash attack to jab can work if your opponent doesn't react in time, and the same for jab to dash attack. For example whenever I play Kirk he knows to spot-dodge because I have a nasty habit of trying to grab right after (which works for most people, but he's got the timing down and knows me too much :ohwell:)

the bair to upsmash is just a matter of how you're moving when you use the bair and how much damage they have.

Dash attack to Fsmash I like to use, usually try it when they roll behind you since yoshi's dash stops him he can turn and headbutt. Keep in mind this doesn't work too often but when it does. oooo boy.
