I play against a decent Pit who plays a very safe defensive game and is well versed in punishing and predicting MK, but the worst of it is that he can just sit on the edge and spam arrows, and use his u-air to **** my shield if I get too close and it's very hard to punish.

D-air and n-air fail pretty hard here. If I hop around and behind he just hops on the stage and edgeguards me, or flies under it and repeats on the other side. D-smash doesn't hit him through the u-air.

How do I beat u-air camping and make him my *****?

btw sup f0x.

Go over him and behind him and use dair so that the swing ends where he is, or rise up from beneath him witn Uairs or Nado.

yh timbers is right, MK's d tilt comes out so fast, low and rapidly and prioritizes arrows

D-tilt does not work, nor does d-smash; u-air will beat it when at the right height.

As I said, if I go around, he just hops up and edgeguards me, and sometimes will B-air or switch sides. Nado isn't a bad idea though.

in this match up if he is being really gay with the arrows use the tornado to approch since your tornado eats his arrows.

i think in my experience, the prob i have with dtilt is that it is easy for pit to shieldgrab it
we are talking about edgecamping, so its kinda impossible to shieldgrab while on the edge

also timbers d-tilt does not work, well it usually will against most ppl cause they dont know how to camp, mainly cause they aint from the midwest.

I remember trading hits with your uair as Luc before, and that has a lot less range, so I guess I just assumed that a faster, lengthier dtilt could do the same with even better results. Maybe Luc's dtilt has more range to catch underneath the ledge, dunno.

Anyways, nado is probably the best bet.
