How to edgeguard a metaknight?

[Azorpatch]

I gets annoying that you can use Dair on him because he counter with shuttle loop. How do you edgeguard a meta?

I think it's a good idea to jump towards him, airdodge his attack to get on his back and counter with an illusion to meteor him. What do you think of this?

Just a warning, don't try to illusion spike a MK out of a shuttle loop. Actually, don't ever try it. It's a pretty dumb thing to do, and will never work against a good player, and it might get you killed.

u could try to bait his glide to come out ,so he will lose his recovery and then attack with a smash. use the reflector to keep him back depending how many jumps Meta has left he'll probably use his up B either on to the ledge, toward and attack with a glide cancel or depending on the stage go under it to the other side. I highly doubt that will actually happen ,but if ti does you could use your illusion to get to the other end of the stage to meet up with him.

If he grabs the ledge you could probably d-smash and knock him of the ledge when his recovery runs out.

These are just ideas i came up with on the spot and from playing meta knight and knowing his options when he up b. thoug i think he can use his other b moves as recoveries as well

there's actually a glitch that forces MK to grab the edge and you can edgehog him there's a video on it and it's all explained there:

Maybe we could harass them with the reflector. Another thing I've been doing alot against anyone is a rising Uair. Many people expect falco to come and meteor them so I do it this way to catch them offguard.

You don't.

/thread.

But really, it's all about the mind game you choose to play and if mk falls for it.

Edgeguard with laser and reflector, if he grabs the ledge you can spike him out of his getup animation. What I like to do is stand there close to the edge, if they do a getup attack you can shield to dthrow to spike.

I myself let them get on the ledge, but punish them when they get up.

Falco may have good edgeguard moves, but against MK they are very hard if not impossible to use safely. The only edgeguarding techs that could work if the MK isnt all that smart are the Fair to stage spike and the Bair over the edge to kill. Use lasers a lot too. This can get them out of their glide AND cancel their Tornado of Incredible Cheapness.

1. let him recover
2. wait for him to come up

and then destroy him

You need to be stopped.

What's in that link?

And I don't know.
Lasers, Reflector (most don't use it often), fsmash (long range, but predictable), and maybe a surprise bair/ dair at the last second?
