I have tried this a million different times, but I can never get it to work.I knock dk off the lege, and I try to jump out and knock him away, but his spinning move has priority on everytthing I do. how can I edgeguard against him using sheik or c. falcon?

lol aesir is so completely right!!! a few needles and he'll be gone. In case you don't know how to, go near the edge, facing it, (The exact position is undescribable, you'll have to find it yourself) and jump up and sheik will throw needles vertically a maybe a 45 degree angle.

And with c falcon, can't you just dair? i haven't tried it, but you should be able to i think. let me know if you try it.

Know which moves have priority, and know the timing. Sheik's needles would work, but you can also bair. If they don't sweetspot, you could dsmash, or grab->tilt->fair.

Falcon's bair has good priority, and his dair would be acceptable.

waiting on the ledge then ledgehopping is so much easier and safer, go for that

You need to space your aerials so they hit the edge of DK's flabby cheeks. Coming from below helps too. Any aerial will pretty much trade with DK's spinny stuff, just space it right.

Actually, it isn't very difficult to hit DK with those during his recovery once you get the timing down. I recommend b-air or f-air.

Hang from the ledge, drop down, DJ, b-air. You're invincible so you don't even have to worry about getting hit.
