I was playing as MK the other day and i found out that he has a dtilt lock! Sorry if this is old news but i thought it would be nice if i just posted it anyway. I even have a set up for it: at low %s Sh dair+fair your opponent should barely be in range for you to start the dtilt lock. Its the same thing as a job lock so yes you have to take a few steps to keep it going. This is easier to do if you set your cstick to attack so you have your dtilt ready. Oh and you have to perform the dtilt as soon as you land for it to work, if you dont he/she will just roll away.

You can bring them up to at least 60% and hit them with a dsmash to knock them off stage so you can edgeguard or hog them.

no its a short hop dair to a fair. You have to put in dair command right when you sh. this'll give you enough time to do the first slash of the fair which will result in your opponent to lay down and you can start the dtilt lock. sorry for the double post.

I found out about that already but opponents can easily get out of it. And sometimes, the fair doesnt reset them on sends them up. But if it does reset, you can shield/airdodge I beleive lol I'll make a bad quality vid right now

Sorry for double post but I'm uploading it now and I think i found the reason that sometimes it doesn't work. I think you have to sweetspot the fair. anyways, stay tuned
EDIT: and wtf it doesn't lay them down it just resets them in the air o_O
Edit 2: lol I understood you wrong. Dair->fair-> dtilt doesnt work 'cause the opponent doesn't fall down. I thought you meant Dair Fair Dair Fair Dair Fair...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVu052A2D8I here's the link to what I thought, skip to 1:20 lol

EDIT 3 >_>: Dair-->Fair to dtilt doesn't work, the opponent flies up in the air and then falls down...it can easily be teched and probably jumped out of. But if you mean SH Dair to 2 hits of fair, that sets up nicely for an Uair, but it's hard to pull off lol

You have to do the dtilt before they hit the ground so that your opponent falls down on their back.

^thanks, but I still think the opponent can get out of it, I can't test it though. But if they can't it's still a nice way to get the to the other side of the stage and set up for an edgeguard, right? :p

Eh, I'm not sure if this is the most reliable little trick here. It seems too... idk. Easy to get out of? Or too hard to setup? If you can actually perform this on an opponent in tourney then good ****.

Nice job finding this on your own.

Yeah i guess it isnt to reliable but hey if you pull it off it racks up about 50%. Oh and ive tried it on pretty much everyone, it doesnt work to well on the floaters though.
