Kind of a simple question but having an idea as to what to do in every situation may help me during a set. To start, I have been practicing against psycho 20XX bots and wait for them to shield (I don't have friends). The reason is because I noticed that they will not do anything unless you do something they can react to or until their shield is right about to pop.
I have been abusing this mechanic to practice shield pressure and my safe options, but everything I do gets super punished. I try to perfectly space a bair and float away, but Ganondorf jumps out of shield and bairs me. What should I do as a Puff against a shield? I know smash attacks are a no-go, rest is not an option at all and the setup to shield poke with up-tilt is tough to pull off quickly.
