Okay so we all know when it comes to Sonic, spikes just aren't his thing.. I mean hell the guy doesn't even have any. Yet I do see potential in ways to stop recoveries and hopefully get a low % kill, because lets face it, it's always annoys your opponent when you get to do that.
Footstall-
A very ineffective spike, yet can be useful to catch an opponent off guard, especially at high percentages due to most people would think you're going for a bair. And thanks to Sonic's speed a set up to a footstool is really pretty simple, even simple combos as just a run-jump approach would work, or you could spiff it up with a spindash.
Spring-
First thing to note is this would really only work close to the edge of the stage, and normally to cancel a up-b recovery. Yet I also see this as a decent way to stop opponents from recovering, not only that a good edge guard. Also due to the vertical distance you get off the spring it can be easier to approach an opponent closer to the bottom blastline.
Bair-
Not really spike alternative but can stage spike if used at the right timing depending on the stage, but then lets face it, Sonic's aerial killing arsenal is lacking.
That's really all I can think of as spiking alternatives, are there any others im missing, and what do you usually do in mid air while off the stage
