one of the only ways to capitalize on rosa is to swat her out of upB with anything you want, her upB is a huge weakness

The main challenge is actually hitting Rosalina out of Launch Star; not as easy as it sounds when the move can be angled at will. If she flies over her adversary's head, the adversary would have to be very mobile to get to Rosalina before she touches ground.

This is obviously harder to do if she's using the Launch Star Attack custom special, since the adversary would have to wait until the attack ends before it can safely attack Rosalina, assuming that the Luma is absent.

I always assume no custom specials. Rosa isn't that good with custom specials because a lot of characters have piercing projectiles to spam.

That's not the best assumption because Rosalina has her own excellent custom options in Luma Warp and Shooting Star Bit.
