I know the title of the thread sound a bit nooby but hear me out, I can punish about 75% of the rolls in the game, but the faster rolls are much harder. Spammy Toon Links are the most common example of this because their roll is one of the hardest to punish due to the low endlag. I tried to punish it with Down Smash, Neutral B, Shorthop N-air, Shorthop Z-air and dash attack, but he just rolls away.

Does anyone have a way to punish fast rolls with ZSS?

Depending on whether they're rolling into you or away from you, turn around jab or perfect pivot utilt are good to catch rolls in a quick manner.

Or standing utilt if they roll into you and are very close.
If you're already sprinting towards them, dash attack isn't bad.
