So I know it hasn't been that long since the last ZSS Playbook (and I'd like to refrain from self-promoting on the boards too often), but I'm getting pretty consistent with perfect pivoting and just had to show some moves you can pull off with this underutilized tech.
From my experience, p-pivoting is best used as a mix-up with SH FF n-air. But as demonstrated in this video, you can use it with several other moves, including: b-air, d-air, grounded neutral B, aerial neutral B (w/ variations), f-tilt, u-tilt, and d-smash. (Note that you have to choose between p-pivot tilts and smashes due to limitations on C-stick mapping). Aside from a combo/timing mix-up, I like to use ZSS' p-pivot options to micro-space (narrowly avoid attacks/grabs) and punish rolls.
What are your experiences with p-pivoting?
