*If this has already been discussed let me know and I will take this thread down*
I recently noticed in a practice match as shulk that I footstooled an opponent and then immediately hit them with air slash, so I did some testing. It turns out that if you footstool and then IMMEDIATELY (the timing is very strict) air slash, it will connect. I tested this against grounded and airborne enemies and from several weight classes, and it seems that all characters are affected by this. This could be useful for punishing recovery and has some potential, so I thought I would share it here.
*as a side note, some other characters can use this technique as well, like sonic. However, most characters cannot utilize this*
