Looking for an alternative controller set up

The way I have my controlls mapped is this:
L-Shield
R-Jump
X-Grab
Y-Jump
B-Special
A-Attack
Z-Attack
C-Stick-Smash
(Tap Jump off)

I have this set up for the way that I Boost Smash (Diagonal Direction you're facing, C-stick down and Z), and I can perform this efficiently and effectively.

However a dilemma arises. Due to where my Grab Button is, to do an Inverse Boost Grab, I need to hold the controller in a "Claw" like format, which isnt good.

So it really comes down to which is the better technique to have at your disposal. Which one should I go with or post an alternative with my controls please :(

Use Z for the attack for Inverse Boost grabbing.= Run->Z->Opposite direction->X.

The reason I didn't like using Z for the Boost Smash is because it was a grab, not an attack. The way you have it set up is good to do the boost smash is better than just using Z for a grab. My settings are default except for: X=grab, L=attack, Tap jump off, and C-stick to attack only against fast fallers like wolf and fox.(Chain grab to ledge fall off down air w/o fast falling is amazing)

I'm suprised I didn't at least TEST that. Thank you, it works like a charm :]
