Okay, so in Smash 3DS and Wii U there is a new ledge mechanic that makes it so that when one person grabs a ledge, if another grabs it after they will steal the ledge. This destroys edgehogging as we know it. But I'v found a way to edgehog. Keep in mind, its not as effective as before, and its harder to do (At least in my opinion).

So, what you do, is the second the opponent grabs the ledge, you steal it, knocking them off and you on. But from there, since they grabbed the ledge they'l get their double jump and recovery back. So what you have to do is instantly follow up with a back-air. (Or down-air, for heavy characters) You are pretty much defending the ledge. At least for now, I'm going to call this techniuqe Ledge-blocking. So, what about this?
