50 % of your moves should be downB, when you´re in clsoe try to grab him. cargo down throw to spike (fair or dair) can work. spam downB

one of the matches thats annoying..... not only do you have to pay attention to him but his explosives as well. you have to be really careful on the way you approach as to not get shield grabbed or eat some ftilts. try to approach with downb on the ground and try to use his nades against him. if the nades have been cooked for a bit dont bother trying to throw em back just avoid them or shield it. grounded upb is a option if your in tilt range if you can time the super armor through one of his tilts or eat away at his shield. you could try some retreating bairs and depending on how he reacts to it you can mix up a side b after a bair. just be aware that he might mortar slide at anytime to get away from you. if possible and you manage to get him off stage try to spike him especially if hes used his upb. if hes a bit below the stage go for it the cypher will hit you and send you flying up a bit allowing you to recover back.

Actually up Bing is a bad idea. Probably better to never use it in this matchup. He can just pull a nade and shield and you'll get hit by it.

Te-Jay, the Snake matchup is very much a spacing battle.

I agree, abuse spacing with tilts, bair, and especially down b.
Also if he is shielding a nade, go break it with forward b

Everyone has already summed it up pretty much. Just avoid explosives, space with down b, grab him when he lands, and get him low offstage.
