Shine OoS more easily on platforms.

Just thought I'd share a trick that helps me shine out of shield more easily when I'm on a platform. You can shield drop (I use the axe method) and then immediately hit B, and you'll land back on the same platform after shining. I find that it gives you a bigger window to get the shine out of shield, but I would still recommend learning to shine out of shield the normal way.

I'd imagine most players find shield drop shine much harder to do. However you're in luck, since shield drop shine is atleast theoretically faster than regular shine OoS, since you don't have to wait for your 5 frame jump squat to end. It's actually very good option.

True, I hadn't considered that it could be faster as well. I'll have to integrate it into my gameplay more, though I try not to get stuck shielding on a platform.

It comes out in 2-3 frames, right? I think that might even be fast enough to get through Fox's shield pressure if he isn't spacing it right. Even if you don't shine exactly in time, you can always waveland or dj bair out of it. I think I'll try this at my next tourney.
