I've been out of the competitive scene for 2 1/2 years. Just getting back into it. I'm mostly struggling with Samus crouch cancel. Which moves are the best at dealing with it? like which of puffs moves can knock Samus out of crouch cancel, which mix ups are there? what do I need to look out for?

Also side note, which stages are good for puff in the matchup?

Puff wants to use platforms so Final D and Poke are bad; You want to force samus into the air (ideal situation is puff below samus and samus in air)
You can achieve this by forcing samus to come onto platforms to damage you.
With the crouch cancelling, samus will be able to CC d-smash at 0 almost everything puff does except for drill and grab. Samus, however, can't really shield vs puff so drifting through samus dair is a great tool to rack up percent
