Short hop Dair is a great and unexpected approach and counter to dashes.Also useful for edgehogging.So why do you snakes not abuse it?

Yeah,but most people shield the first 1 or 2 hits,It kills effectively.It is not expected,so that may surprise them.


Maybe approach is not the right word.Close combat is.

It's very punishable and easy to avoid to the experienced player. Also I'm not quite sure why you would "counter" a dash with this when you could spot-dodge or shield into an attack or grab (i.e. dthrow -> further ****) It's a lot less reliable to sh-dair.

Lol. So we should "abuse" Dair more than Ftilt?

It seems like you can do everything with Dair, and you can't Ftilt in the air.

Dair for top tier.

You can't dair on the ground.

Ftilt has no landing lag in the air.

Ftilt is quicker.

Ftilt is harder to SDI out of.

tl;dr
We have a topic on our moveset, read it.

Turn Around...
dair has supreme lag after the move whether you SH or FH.

i think dair is an alright move for edge guard but just stick to the mortars and nades.

i like dair a lot but i know better not to use it unless their shield is about to break.

just try to find the right timing for it like if donkey kong did his recovery move and landed on the stage which has a lot of lag so just dair him.....pretty much we just use dair when a character has landing lag or lag at the least.
