Does anyone have any tips for getting better at Corrin?

[PlasmaBoy75]

I have a friend that is good, so I want to match his skills if not surpass, so I was wondering if anyone had any tips for playing as Corrin. If you have any tips, please let me know and I'll greatly appreciate it.

Look for video-guides. Corrin is very rarely played so it's difficult to say. I don't find HER playstyle too different from Smash 4 (other than the fact that Side-B is nowhere near as useful), so look for those as well.

Thanks. But when you say that Corrin is a "he"...

It pisses me off more than anything.

My autocorrector is the biggest annoyance in my life...

I'm a month late, but here are some things you should do:
1) Learn the range of all your moves. Corrin's moves will reward you if you manage to space them perfectly, and will be much safer on shield.
2) Learn to read airdodges and juggle. Corrin has one of the best up airs in the game. If you read the airdodge you can almost always keep them in the air above you and rack up tons of damage. Almost all of your attacks and downthrow put opponents in the air. Sometimes you can punish an airdodge with a neutral B if you catch on to the opponent's habits.
3) Lastly this is kind of the same as point 1, but learn the range and spacing of dragon lunge. Dragon lunge is one of the few attacks in the game that can hit opponents at a perfect 45 degree angle. If you jump over a projectile you can often punish the opponent.

Thank you very much. This really helped. I have a lot easier time playing.

Cool tip for using Corrin: if you pin into the ground, a platform, or a wall and then jump, it doesn't count as your double jump. On stages like Kalos that have walled edges you can use pin to essentially get another jump and recover from deeper.

Corrin does indeed have an incredible up air. I can juggle almost anyone, except for the smart ones that parry me. (Don't expect to win the juggle game against a good Roy.)

Good guide. Now seems like a good time to pick up Corrin, she's massively buffed from 8.0.0 and soft-buffed from 8.1.0 (Small Battlefield is a good stage for her), and Cosmos has picked her up again. How good she is remains to be seen, top 20 seems fairly likely to me, but even if she would be top 25 she'd be much better than before.

Definitely a top 10. She has a lot in her moveset that will keep her opponents in the air. A good move has to be her n-air which has a wide hitbox. If you want to learn more in-depth about the characters juggling abilities and other fighters I suggest checking out this article.
