First off I don't have a Wii or Brawl. So my only play time consists of tourneys or at some friends' houses, with neither being very often.
Though it's not a huge concern, I just want to know what move(s) D.K. has (if any) that beats out Meta's Tornado. I usually go with Bair but that never seems to work,

:/

Tornado is pretty amazing vs. DK,pretty tough to punish. Just make sure you dont try to attack MK after the tornado runs out and he hits the ground. Due to DK's speed and size MK can just start another one up,and catch your vulnerable *** in it. And if you think the tornado is punishable with DK once you get hit you havnt been playing a gay enough metaknight.

I tend to space myself to allow the Meta to finish up the tornado move. Predict where hes going to land if hes in the air, and then forward smash to punish.

Why not down-B to keep him away from you? The startup and cooldown lag don't matter, since you know when the move will end.

What am I missing?

Oh sweet I gotta try out that f-tilt then.
I could never consistently find when I could hit him out of it. So I've just been relying on the SA frames of the D Punch.
