How do you deal with Marth spacing with f-air?

[KirbyFan20]

Feels like there's almost nothing I can do against this move when it's spaced.

Anyone have advice for this?

I have a friends who mains marth and I'm usually able to get through his fairs by shielding and getting in a grab as he lands.

I did, but I got absolutely no responses after waiting several days.

Now look at how fast this thread got answers.

Thank you, I'll have to try this next time.

Marth's Fair has a decent amount of endlag and he can't follow up with anything after it without using his double jump. just shield and dash in to get below him. Be sure not to get shield breaker'd but going in is your best bet. Marth's worst position is directly above kirby because his Dair is SO laggy and Marths Nair won't hit that low so just shield then go in. Dash attack works fine and so does short hop U-air

If he's being too predictable, rar bair him since it has way less startup. Otherwise, just shield. ftilting won't help much because I believe that he can punish them on shield.
