Dealing with Wolf Spam

Hey all. Had a noob question and was hoping for some answers, if you'd be so kind.

I've played Brawl for a while, but only recently tried to get moderately good at it (my college hosts tournaments for it, so that was a decent inspiration). I've started playing ZSS, and really enjoyed her playstyle, but I'm running into a fairly large problem in another player who mains Wolf. We played a few matches, and it was pretty entertaining at first, but eventually he realized that he can just spam infinitely and I don't have a clue how to get around it.

His set up is basically this; he'll move to roughly 3/4th of the stage away (just inside the farthest reach of his laser, so it easily outdistances anything ZSS has) and just spams special. If I shield roll towards him, I'll get F-Smashed or D-Smashed, both of which have surprisingly good range. If I try to approach him from the air with something like Side Special, I get met by his Side Special, which goes diagonally and KOs at decent %s if it connects fully.

I'm sure there's something I'm missing; I'm pretty new to any sort of competitive scene, so if any of you have some tips on how to deal with this (preferably in terms a newbie can understand) that'd be much appreciated.

I'm glad to answer this question but I'm going to point out that questions don't usually deserve their own thread. Next time you wanna ask a question, please first think "Is it really necessary to make an entire thread for this one question?". Keeping in mind that the ZSS subforum has a Q&A thread, the answer is likely no.

Ask this question in the Q&A thread and I'll respond there. Don't post in this thread again. Don't worry, a lot of people who are new to the forums will do this, not a big deal, just don't do it again.
