down B. down-smash. are his most devastating. up-tilt and up-air are great for juggling because they are both so fast.

make sure you use your side-b when recovering back to the stage. most people try to pop their opponent upwards to use a thunder. id recommend spamming the thunder when they are very high up because it kills at very low percent when they are high enough. and its always worth a try since your opponent can't punish you if you miss.

notice down-smash's length, and how far the forward-smash reachs.

i hope that helps.

Thanks.
How is a easy way to hit people with Thunder?
What aerials are good to use for him, besides the up-air? I have been using down-air to my liking, but, it is a little laggy.

for a good recovery use his side b then his up b gets you closer to the stage, if your thrown far off screen
