I was watching some of the Rule 6 videos (KK too good) when a random question popped into my head.
When you've just lost a stock and you've got those nice invincibility frames coming back, what do you do with them?
I normally just do a variation on a cavalry charge towards my opponent, but that's what most people expect. I have also seen people deliberately (I think) use the fear of the invincibility frames to box their opponent into high-pressure areas. Obviously, the best scenario is to get both damage and a good position, but sometimes going for that attack means giving the opponent an opening to slip past.
What factors go into making that decision? Maybe if they're at high percent you wanna go more for the kill, or you go for the spacing because you think the chances are better to slip in a KO when they're pressured?
I would also apply this question to the flip-side scenario, during the downtime when you've just knocked out your opponent and you've got that time (to charge needles?) and have to avoid their invincibility.
