Hey dudes! I've been snooping around the Mewtwo boards and noticed quite a bit of activity recently. It's great to see people pooling together time and resources to build up this awesome character. I've been playing Mewtwo as a low tier main since 2008, and now I'm really interested in furthering his development as a character. We all have to do our part as fellow Mewtwo players right? There is optimization to be done, and whether or not his tier placement changes as a result, it's going to be blast exploring Mewtwo's possibilities along the way. To that end:

I played a few friendlies on stream (weekly practice sesh with Kirbykaze) and whipped out Mewtwo. At one point I got a dthrow (opponent Fox d.i.ed in) and because of the trajectory + his %, I was able to cover every single tech option with a fully charged shadowball. I always thought this was possible but I never could get the shadowball recoil to move me far enough to cover tech inwards. So now the ball catches missed tech, in place, and away. If they tech in you can turnaround grab like I do in that match (which means usmash / dtilt / maybe even dsmash are possible). Pretty sick! The full match link is in the comment section. Check the option coverage!
Also something I haven't seen done too much is Mewtwo's ledge-attack (under 100%). It beats spacies UpB clean at angles that may be awkward to cover, and sets up easy offstage edge-guards. This is demonstrated immediately after the shadowball interaction
