This seems pointless but ok!
My favorite punish is to walk up to them slowly and taunt then single jab and run away. They then choose the most optimal punish and jump off to their death, IT ALWAYS WORKS!

...jk G&W can't break shields! :troll:

The one time I broke a shield with a 9 with G&W I taunted and sweetspot f-smashed. But yeah. It's impossible to break a shield with G&W.

Hammer, jk. I think walk them to the edge of the stage then upsmash if they are at a bit lower percent.

Shieldbreak with Game&Watch...uh... I had two (3 is best shieldbreak). In one case I used judge and got a 1, then I USmashed because I was mad. Since then I´d always just Usmash or Dsmash. Near the ledge an Fsmash probably is equally strong.

Gw can shield break easy with a full bucket I remember I killed Luigi at 45 with sweet spot f smash after I pushed him toward the ledge haha also i should broke a mewtwo twice, I hit him with the bucket and it broke his shield, then I taunted and charged an f smash but he woke up really fast somehow and right as his shield came back it broke again haha I didn't take any time the second time

Shield breaks aren't easy with this character, but a stray usmash/sweetspot dsmash, judge 3/9 and (especially) Oil Panic can all do it. I usually go for usmash, unless I'm on duck hunt or playing against Mac in which case a sweetspot fsmash or (at higher percents, particularly against Mac) a sourspot dsmash is useful.

Related: I once broke a MM's shield with his bucketed fsmash and tried to get a usmash but got a c-stick jab instead. I was unsurprisingly very salty.

A misplaced Shadow Ball or charged shot from Samus are the only times I've ever been able to get a shield break (le oil panic) but I always use Fsmash or sourspotted Dsmash. Fsmash for power and Dsmash for easy offstage setups that can lead to a gimp.
