I'm not the greatest DDD player, or even close, but I've gotten decent with him and know at least a little bit about how to get back on the ledge safely. But anyways, here are a few things that will help you get back on the stage safely.
DDD's Anti-Edgeguarding Game
When you're hanging on the ledge
Bair--This one I use the most. Just press back to get off the ledge, then press jump while still holding back on the analog stick, then DI forward while pressing C-stick forward to perform a bair from off the ledge, comes out very fast, and if you keep your control pad holding forward, you land right back on the ledge again. One of the safest ways to attack a person edgeguarding close to the ledge.
Uair--Well, you get the point, do the input so that you drop down, jump up once, and use your Uair, on most stages, DDD's hammer will go straight through the stage cuz of it's nasty range and hit your opponent. You might have to use an extra jump to get back on the ledge.
Fair--Practically the same as the Bair except for the input on the control stick when you press the jump button. Will probably have more knockback if you connect since Bair is more practical throughout most matches. Making it easier to get on the stage after it connects.
Essentially all his aerials can be used to take off pressure and make some space to get back onto the stage. And they are all very good at doing it. For the Dair i don't use often, but you have to jump, and di forward alittle bit, and then perform your dair. I don't recommend this though it's not as safe as all the other ones i just mentioned cuz you're in the air without any protection.
When you're recovering to get to the ledge
UpB--UpB can get predictable at times, so i try to alternate where i land it, cancelling it and not cancelling it, etc. UpBing onto the stage is a bad approach to getting back on the stage, leaves you vulnerable for most aerials or an well timed uptilt. Maybe actually hit the stage if you know that you know that you know they aren't going to punish you for it, or for mixing it up.
ForwardB--this is where it's at. When you're using your jumps, just throw in a forward B to get an edgeguarder away from the ledge, when a gordo comes out, i get very happy. Also, i heard from somewhere that you can ledgedrop and do forwardB and land back on the ledge or something like that, if someone could tell me how to do that, it'd be great. I think whut has some insight on this since i just saw him post that he's been leaving alot of responds about how good a tool forwardB is for getting back on the stage.
DownB--Actually i don't use DownB ever on or off the stage. But if anyone has anything of importance about it, let me know and I'll add it.
Aerials--I guess you could WoP back up to the stage just for show or if you're afraid someone's gonna try and go after you. w/ bair and or fair
NeutralB--So much fun, if they're anywhere near the edge, simply suck them up and fall, make sure you have enough time/jumps to get back up if you don't suck them up. It lasts a pretty long time, and i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one who's died from missing a suicide. Just a warning though, don't ever try this if you are down a stock--should be common sense. Other than that, if you have a lot more percentage than your opponent on the same stock, i suicide, i did it twice to a snake the other day, I had like 160 and he had like 70 one time and 110 the other time. and then i did really well on the last stock and won, w00t. Another warning, pulling this off may make you very excited and you may feel like jumping up and down and clapping like i do, but pay attention cuz you've still got a match to play. Very satisfying way to end a match when you're up a stock, ledge stall with the moves above, then get a little above the ledge, they'll be sick of you stalling and will try and attack, just suck them up and fatfall to death.
On another note, i've never pulled this off on a real match, but you can suck them up, fall a little bit, then spit them up under the stage and still recover back onto the stage.
Well, that's all i got so far, but if anyone has anything to add, please post
