Is there any other use of reverse fair than to lead into the spike from the chaingrab? Does it combo into anything, or could it be used for tricky edge guarding? Rather is it at any time at all, an optimal option?

I don't know is its ever exactly optimal because I don't know how well they can DI it. I assume its pretty much just for style in 99% of circumstances, but I have seen PPU do a reverse fair>tipper edgeguard that was probably the most amazing 2 step i have ever seen.

Style is always the optimal option
Also can you link me to the vid of what you were talking about?

Reverse fair leads to fsmash edgeguards, as mentioned above. It can also be done out of uthrow on a spacie at around 70%, and can also lead into an fsmash. That's just stuff I've seen.

drop/platform cancel reverse fair? Actually, I think I'm thinking of drop cancel tipper fair, because that has higher hitlag.
