Well, when you first start out with
kirby, you must first understand the art of the kirby.
- Ground -
When you and the other person are on the ground, take fox for example. Fox is better at combing on ground and has quicker moves, so you as kirby are going to have to be able to own the ground. Turning around and utilting is a good way to get them off the ground for a opening for a air combo. It also is good to hold them down for a couple of hits and get some damage on them. If they are good di you should turn around and utilt the other way, always face to the right if there on your left and vise versa so your hit box is larger. Also Short hop then dair is another good move to do on ground. Just drill, guess were they roll to and keep on drilling. If they are at a high % like 130% then guess were they go after they roll from ground dair and use Bdown which turns you into rock and does good knock back. owning the ground also makes you perfect for smaller maps and large maps. Own the ground and you force them to play in air which kirby is naturally all around better in.
- Air -
Kirby is a master of air sense he is a puff. He also has dair to spike people. When using kirby in air always remember this. Nair is to forward hit knock them. Bair is also another knock back move but also can be used to combo into a tilt or wall ****. Dair is good to spike with and get damage with and use to open into many combos. Fair is used for many many reasons. The best way to use Fair is to time it for best damage. When they are in the drill of fair tap forwards bit so at very end you go off them instead of knocking them back if in middle of map. This way they are behind you and u have them in 1 frame stun so they can't do anything in result you have opening to do Bair for knock back. Also Fair can be used off map to edge guard them to keep them from the map. Or it can be used to Fast fall, Fair, Turn around on ground and utilt which opens up for the kirby combo.
- Edge guard -
A good kirby knows how to edge guard. Edge guarding with kirby is one of kirbys best things to do. If you know what your doing you can make it impossible for them to regain any jumps or get back to map. Lets start with knocking them back when off edge. Good thing to do if you see them from middle hight coming to the map use final cutter up B to shoot them off. Up B for kirby isn't always to spike it also can be used as a ranged attack. This does some good knock back too. Also Nair and Bair are good to use off edge when they are recovering too. Also one of the worse thing i seen newer players do is Fast fall dair with kirby. NO you never fast fall and Dair with kirby. You always float and dair. Never fast fall. If they are extremely close to edge and about to grab it you Dair right on edge of it so the hit box is pushed to spike them but u never go off the edge. Also when on edge if you just drop off to other side and Bair or Dair is also another good way that some people don't expect.
I hope this guide helps some new players who love kirby understand how to use him better. Also if you want videos of kirby players just message me and ill show you some.
the hardest character in the world to play with,
