So while messing around in training mode I found out without rage Diddy can combo SHFF nair into uair at death percents which I think is pretty cool and adds another kill set-up for this monkey.(I did it on Zelda in training mode when I get the chance I'll see how DI and other characters work with this)

Found this out the first day I tried out Diddy and asked myself why it wasn't seeing more use. Nair's a great combo starter that works at almost any percent.

Because most people see you short hop and are shielding on instinct because of fair, bair, and uair, so if you go for the nair you're probably going to get grabbed.

Fair enough. It's still good for catching them if they try rolling into you, though most competitive players don't do that too often.

Nair is still an option off of a jumped monkey flip. Nair and FF after the animation is done and you can catch quite a few people off guard, as they might think you're helpless.

But Joey is right. You might get a FF Nair a couple times, but after that you're eating a grab. It's better to just pressure with Fairs and Dtilts that might lead into a grab or an Fsmash.
