Marths down tilt

[MBG]

I'm having some troubles when it comes to marths down air off stage. When I got off stage to finish with a down air, I can't seem to ever make it back to the stage. So as of now it's pretty much down air and I also lose a stock. I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong I use the A as opposed to the C analog or is that where i'm going wrong with it? Anyways any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Jump before you down air to stop your downward momentum off stage. This goes for all of Marth's aerials off stage. Whether you use the C-stick or A is just preference. Both ways work.

You could be fastfalling by accident if you're using the A button, in which case using the C-stick would help (and you should be using it anyway since it gives you more control over your aerial drift, which is important in general as well as here in particular). You can make it back from a down air even if you do it as you're falling (i.e. without jumping first) so long as you're high up enough when you start; I'm reasonably certain you can do it at stage level on every stage if you don't fastfall.

As you practice you'll get more comfortable with knowing how far/deep you can go offstage and still make it back.

try setting up into it, up throw into down air on fast fallers works and so does up tilt down air if youre facing away from the ledge. also, is best to use it facing backwards as the hitbox is bigger, watch some marth combo videos to know what i mean.

Marth's Down air has a lot of lag. Be patient. Wait a second then up B back to stage.

Use the C stick so you don't fast fall, side B towards the ledge if you want to make sure you're facing the right way and stall you in the air a bit, and finally... up B.

If you're not high enough when Dairing to make it back with an UpB you'll have to double jump just before the Dair to not fall like a stone to your death.
