Do you use falco's shine for edgeguarding?

only the computer uses the shine for edge guarding : P. I don't use the shine for edge guarding because i find the a nice SH bair or SH dair off the stage with a SH dair back onto the stage if more effective.

I suppose reflector would be useful on certain characters like Marth, Fox and Falco. Reflector, at this point and time, does not have incredible use for off stage opponents and is generally only used for quick spacing on-stage. I just use laser and nair on stage or dair and bair off stage to edge guard.

Using falco's reflecter as an edgeguarding technique isn't a common part of my gameplay. However, I can see it as being decent way to gimp unsuspecting (heavy) opponents trying to recover from the edge at high damages (100+). Basically, the reflector is fast and does a good amount of stun, thus causing people to unexpectedly DI under the stage if hit. Hmm, now that I think about it, I may have to practice this. Anyway, as mentioned above, I find Dair to be as/more useful.

Pretty much the same thoughts on this as everyone here >_<. I feel it is useful, but there are much better options for falco offstage...
