At ICIV, i tested out something in a couple of matches. It works a lot against people who press down then jump on ledge recovery. Short-hop dair just like you would for CG to spike, i want to test this on people who attack and if you read it right will it still hit them on the ground, if it does this would be good to tech chase or even better have your own for of the buuman trap. (check dedede thread). However i don't have a wii. does anyone do this besides me?

I don't want to play captain obvious, but only a select few characters from the cast have an up air (or upB) so bad that it can't hit you before you dair, as you have to Dair as he jumps he can see you coming and counter, I dont see much use for this.

Not a lot of people ledge drop > UpB . But anyway, what's more important to know is that you can Dair spike people who are getting off the edge in any way if you time it well enough. Even though they're blinking when they roll/ledge attack/get on/jump, they are still vulnerable. You have to short hop before they move though so that you can fast fall it in order to connect.
