I don't know what to call it, but I saw this in a video of ZSS and Ike. It went up-throw, up-B, and they land in front of you. Can someone test if this is repeatable or not?

I've managed to upB into dsmash repeatedly against people a few times.
even getting it off once (upB, dsmash, upB or usmash) does a really nice amount of damage, and usmash tends to open up to a uair, if you can avoid any attack they throw at you as defense.
:D

Against a computer in training mode, it is most certainly possible to "infinitely" do this.

The one problem with trying to pillar with ZSS is that after an Usmash or Dthrow, people have enough time to DI away from your Up-B or move just enough that after you do it they land behind you. If you can hit them with a Dsmash after an Up-B, then you're in luck. I find myself semi-pillaring a lot, as in I pillar them until they DI far enough, then chase their fall and Usmash into another pillar.

I don't think ZSS has any legit "combos" w/ pillaring just from DI, but she's still super fast horizontally and even more so vertically and has a whole set of absolutely kickass high priority upwards attacks to let her do pillar-like strings.

However her grab can catch people out of the air, so I'm interested in if it is in fact possible to grab someone who lands in front of you on their way back down with good timing.

If you're good at reading DI...

Dthrow > Uair > UpB > Fair / Dair (Depends on placement)

I use that combo a lot.

Today I was just playing casually with a friend, while I'm sure he wasn't DI'ing properly I pulled this:

Dthrow > Up Smash > UpB > Down Dmash > FSmash for roughly 65 percent [I THINK.]

Anyways, we were both sort of surprised at how easily I got him in there and kept him stunned (He was Wolf BTW).
