The Nair-Dair Connection

[Gum]

It has recently come to my attention that nair sets up for dair perfectly. So much so that it is actually a consistent KO as low as 95%. This could be the answer to Samus' lack of early KO ability. Nair still has lots of priority, speed and stun. This coupled with the lowered knockback means that when you intercept their recovery with it, it knocks them just far enough to follow up and connect with a dair. Try it out. This could be big.

so what you're saying is that at 80% i can run off nair someone into a dair for a 95% kill?
cause if that's what you're saying...we're talkin like, taking two stocks off your opponent in maybe a minute and a half.

So you mean nair into a death-spike?? Isn't that kinda obvious?

I'll try it out next time I get a chance, though it may be tough on characters like Marth.

Not sure what you mean by "death-spike", but basically you drop off, and without using your jumps(if at all possible), you nair and while continuing your momentum forward, you dair. Its a thought. I have pulled it off quite a few times though.

Even if it is obvious, what can they do about it? The high priority cancels out most things and if they try to avoid it, they're just as open for the dair.
