How do I nail the meteor on that dair

[Ekiele0]

Training luigi for a tournament and was wondering the timing and spacing of getting a meteor or spike on the dair, the other hitbox is not shabby at all, but was wondering if I could get a little help with this, a video would be greatly apreciated.

Notice that there are two hitboxes. To get the meteor you have to hit with only the upper one.

So the meteor is actually behind him?

 

[Cubelarooso]

Yeah. I've rarely gotten it on purpose, never outside friendlies, and the regular hit is usually better anyways, but if you want to land it you either have to be below the opponent and risk missing entirely, or sorta sidle/fall onto them.

I heard one Luigi player to another say this: "Try to hit with his hands.' That may be a good visual cue for you?
