The Sauce Boss
Smash Ace
Because of the recent should planking be banned thread I thought it might help people to know appropriate methods to deal with planking. This is basically going to be a list noting the attacks each character has that can deal with a ledge camper. Please contribute methods you know for each character and I will update the original post with them.
I am only putting crude explanations, so if you do not understand how to use X move to beat ledge stalling simply ask.
It is also important to note that simple things like edge hugging can be effective given the right situation. If your character has a good recovery don't be afraid to jump off the stage and go for a stage spike.
This is a thread for dealing with ledge camping, not complaining about it. Posts saying "omg it needs teh b banned" get reported.
