Newer to mewtwo, strats for landing back on stage, and recovering?

[The_ToolBag]

Hey guys, sorry, Im sure this has been posted before so please link me if it has.

I was just wondering what were some of the best ways getting back into neutral from above the opponent, and what are some of the best recovering strats?

Thanks

One of the most useful things I learned was being able to teleport in whatever direction I choose. When you can do that, you can feint that you intend to fall left, and when they run* in to strike, teleport down and right (or vice versa). End the teleport touching the ground to minimise lag.

For more fun, learn phasing and reverse confusion to move erratically through the air... Unpredictability is important... Couple this with good spacing on the ground, and opportunities will arise to make use of Mewtwo's awesome punish game.

*if your opponent walks, rather than runs to intercept you on the ground, then you will have a hard time since he will be able to respond to your feint more effectively... There are no solid answers to this other than work on your timing, and know your hitboxes...

For reference, "phasing" means short-hop air dodges, or SHAD.

We have a Q&A thread as well as a Metagame thread. Please post there in the future.

Otherwise, check out my guide, it is stickied. I have a section on recovering and other off-stage things.

I also have a couple of videos that might help you. Follow the link in my spoiler and look in the Lab playlist for things like Ledge-options and recovery tactics. Good luck!
