When one person is grabbing a ledge, another person can take their place and kick them off the ledge. There’s no way to punish these since it’s not Melee, and you have a brief moment of “trumpstun” before you can do anything.

Once you ledge trump someone you can drop from the ledge by pressing down or away from the stage and follow up with an aerial. Usually a back air.

To avoid getting trumped you can buffer a ledge getup attack, roll or lift.
The trumped player can di into stage during the trumped animation. But you can follow up with a fair, usually.

Isn't there a 2 frame window once you grab the ledge where you can't do anything? That's why your opponent has to time their trump correctly or else it won't work. So even if you buffer a get up option, your opponent can still ledge trump you or hit you.
