D'awwww. That's the smash love right there. You are right about the whole risky thing, when it comes to these sorts of matches I just won't throw open dairs out there, they have to be extremely well timed to avoid punishment, it's not exactly hard to punish a missed dair, it's not the god send everybody thinks it is. Calz was really getting in on that last stock, I had to keep my cool and so I had to just space and space until the opportunity arose, in which case, it did.I think the case was more that KillerJawz played the matchup better rather than Calzorz not knowing enough about it. Notice how KillerJawz capitalized on Samus' advantages in this MU and never tried anything too risky or unnecessary (such as needless smash attacks or Dair abuse). Also towards the end you'll see that Calzorz put a lot of pressure on and gained a lot of momentum back, KillerJawz would've been in serious trouble if he hadn't taken advantage of that opening and finished it with a clean DTilt. A well played match imo.
Hyro makes a valid point though, the zair hits were very frequent. Calz knows however that a Samus on the edge is just evil.
