The hitbox is at the handle of the key. most reliable way to hit it is to send the move out later so by the time the hitbox comes out your nuts are already in their face and it'll spike. If you send it out earlier then the tip of the key hitbox will hit them before the nuts hitbox does.

I believe it has to do with hitting them at the same time the key comes out. I practice this by doing dthrow or uthrow to dair on cpu-fox to get a feel for when to do it, which has helped me a lot.

On frame 1 of the attack, the top hitbox is a meteor. iirc it has higher priority than the lower hitbox; after the first frame, the top is the same as the bottom.
