I think I found a way to kill Jigs with marth really early and IT might help shift the matchup marth favored!

So basically I was on UnclePunch practicing basic tech skill with a bunch of characters so I decided to try out pivot tippering on Jigglypuff. However, when I accidentally imput an upair, the soft hit sent her right above Marth’s head at 70%. I then labbed using all the DI options on UnclePunch and found that it’s a reaction based true death combo on jigs from 63ish% to 79ish% when you f-smash her after the upair. Before 63% there’s no tipper, after 79% the move doesn’t hit. I tried all the DI’s on all 16 percents. It gets harder as you go farther from the original 70%. I even tested under the platforms and because of the angle of The soft hit upair, you can’t tech on a platform or at least I couldn’t find a way to do it in UnclePunch. I wouldn’t like to name this technique after myself so I will call it the “Calcon Tipper”. I Made a SB account just to tell you guys this please read I think This could be Meta changing. Please contact me with any questions or comments I want to see if this could be viable or even optimal one day. Thank you so much for reading

I'm guessing you tested against one DI. Why can't puff just DI up?

I tested all DI’s actually including both combo and survivial DI. If puff DI’s up in this range she will still get clipped by either a forward smash in in one direction or the other. Di straight up results in a tipper when you reverse f smash

Was puff DI ing down and away?

There is something you're missing here. This really doesn't sound like a real combo to me.

Wait, so is this combo starting with the soft Uair and not an fthrow or something? Because soft Uair -> tipper fsmash is already known about, it works on a ton of characters too. The problem is that it's hard to get close enough to land the soft Uair without getting hit.
