Having trouble getting kills sometimes

[LEGOF]

Lately I've been having problems finishing off stocks, especially against characters that can move in the air very well, namely Jigglypuff and ZSS. I'm just wondering how other Rosalina mains setup their KOs.

I mainly go for Up-airs, or try to throw them off the stage and read their jump with a b-air, slightly drifting above them to give them a sense of security and hitting them with either Rosalina's active hitbox or Luma's from underneath. Also just reading a landing or roll with an up-smash works well.

Hope this helped~

don't be afraid to go deep offstage, since rosalina is really good at gimping and has really huge hitboxes on aerials. while onstage i go for up airs and up smashes usually

I go for gimps, but some characters like Villager and Jigglypuff have really safe recovery options and just avoid them. Does anyone have any videos of situations like these against characters with safer recoveries?

this rosalina has some pretty good edgeguarding
i will say the villager made some questionable recovery options though...

ive honestly never seen rosalina vs jigglypuff so....

I rather like throwing them off the stage and then aggressively chasing them down with the Fair. It has just enough knockback to KO at higher percentages and has a long lasting hitbox.

Since both Villager and Jigglypuff are smaller characters, have you ever tried doing this?

That certainly looks helpful, but judging by the distance luma was launched, that looks like a previous patch. Does this tactic still work in the current version?

It certainly does! But for some characters you'll have to space a little differently depending on how far they go when grab released. Like for example Luma has to be closer to Rosalina to be able to usmash Jiggly.
