RIP Air Walk OoS

[MythTrainerInfinity]

Hey guys, correct me if I am wrong, but I spent the last half an hour labbing and Air Walk OoS doesn't seem to work anymore.

Due to the way shieldstun works now Air Walk out of shield no longer works. In Brawl and pre shieldstun patch Smash 4 you could Shield DI in a direction, press jump, and do a rising DAir in the direction you are holding. You can still perform it out of hitstun, just not out of shield or perfect shield anymore.

This was quite useful with Brawl Lucario's larger DAir hitbox, but it still had some use before the shieldstun patch in Smash 4.

Welp, time to try to get this out of my muscle memory after 5 or so years lol.

I've been trying it for a while too, to no avail.

Shame...now that that's gone, what other options do we have OoS?

Jump to air attack, jump FP flame (lol), USmash, Aura Sphere shinanegans... I might be onto something soon. I have to look at some numbers.
