Any one else think it's a tad too weak. It's great for edgeguard and can lead to combo on fast fallers, but on high pertages, it fails to kill any think of decent weight on like above average ceilings I feel. I am wrong?

It's not so much a kill move. It's great for racking up damage on careless or recovering (or fast-fall) opponents, and can be used in conditioning opponents to not rush in.

It's also useful as a tech chase. If your opponent has a short techroll, it can cover the failed tech, tech in place, AND tech to one side b/c bowser is so heug
