So I just recently wanted to main pit for an upcoming local tourney, but it's still a bit sloppy and I dont know what moves are most effective and least effective, could I get some tips on how to play like a top level pit?

Dair crossups. If you land the hit, juggle them with uairs. Nairs work too. JC grab is fantastic. Dash-attack is really fast and follows up down-throws. Shoot arrows at people. Up-b is a finisher.

That's pretty much the gist of it I guess. lol

Basically Pit seems to be a fundamentals-based character. He's got some pretty bad moves, but overall he's got a really solid toolset. Good luck, mang. :)

Yeah, aerial combos for days. If you do it right, you can combo someone from 0-80 and maybe a kill off of a throw. Pretty beastly. If you can get them right above you, utilt can juggle at surprisingly high %s due to its super low knockback. From that you can transition into the lovely uair juggle and other things. Poke them off the edge if you can't finish off the top and then edgeguard from there. Don't be too afraid to go super deep off the side with your grounded glide, but be aware that you can only jump and up-b back.
