Can someone please tell me how Falcon's Dair is SO extremely nerfed? It's a little worse, but still looks good to me.

Super laggy + very little hitstun means if you hit, you can't combo out of it, and if you miss, you're majorly punished.

On the plus though, it seems easier to edgeguard with. Every time I've seen someone miss the spike (meteor, whatever), the horizontal knockback was good enough to kill them. Maybe they just got lucky, though.

Still, other than edgeguarding, I don't think we'll be using the d-air very much.

dthrow -> dair over the edge seems pretty reliable. Unfortunately no more flip-stomps (that's what I call a low % stomp that makes the character flip in place) leading to grabs : (
