I don't know if this has been talked about, or if everyone already does it, but heres how I DI the Fox Uthrow.

After going to FC, I noticed a lot of Sheiks have problems DIing the Fox Uthrow. I main Samus, and play Sheik as my secondary, and I DI the Uthrow about 80% of the time. As a Samus player, I'm constantly CCing during every time I have lag. To do Smash attacks, I hit the C stick and hold down. I L-cancel by holding down and pressing L. When I think I might get hit, I hold down.

Fox usually grabs after you land, do a Smash, or after a shine. Be ready when he starts dash dancing too.

When I play Shiek VS Fox, I just hold left or right when I would normally hold down with Samus. Practice holding left and right during L-canceling and Smash attacks. If you get hit by any areal by Fox you should immediately hold a direction.

I prefer holding away from the stage, it will stop them from chaining so many Uairs. Be careful doing that though.

DI the fox up-throw behind them, because they have to turn around and then up-air you giving you slight more reaction time.

Then SMASH DI away from them when they up-air. You'll just get faintly hit, works almost every time with light characters like pichu or yl.

You can be holding left or right before they actually throw you and you will still DI left/right when they throw you, right
