So my friend plays a pretty good spacing game with Olimar naturally making it hard to approach. I honestly have no ideas on how to approach an Olimar. DJC side-b isn't that effective because he's so short. Olimar fair usually beats magnet 80% of the time. Tried to stray away from grabbing because Olimar's punish is not fun. Any ideas?

either learn shield pressure
or nair -> jab -> mag -> djc fair or nair or w/e
or nair -> jab/mag -> JC grab mixup
olimar has bad out of shield options as his Usmash horizontal range got nerfed to nothing and his grab takes a long time and has no grab armour.
you should also be able to hit olimar with DJC pk freeze. you should be able to hit a crouching kirby if you do it right.
