Okay this morning I was experimenting with Ice Climbers and I'm pretty sure I've found a very useful edge guarding tactic. I still haven't decided on a name for it but I will still do my best to describe it. Note: percise timing is required for best results.


Step 1 - After you hit an enemy off the stage run or washdash towards the edge closest to him.

Step 2 - Then sidestep, and IMMEDIATELY hold the control down while holding A.

Step 3 - When the opponent tries to recover, still holding down A, jump and do a bair.

Step 4 - Once you do the bair with Popo, Nana will automatically release her down smash at the same time causing more area coverage oppossed to just guessing how the opponent will recover.

Sorry but this idea really isn't that useful. They can just sweetspot the edge, in which case you are less able to react since Popo is recovering from the B-air.

Its better to just have nana charge a smash while you edgehog, if they are recovering from very high they can still go over nana but you can waveland up and grab them still.
