Villager's FSmash Ledgeguarding

[PlasmaButt]

Really short post, but I wanted to ask about this. Does Villager's FSmash cover all the basic recovering options? After playing with a friend extensively, I've been hit numerous times while doing the getup attack, roll onto stage, and jumping from the ledge. It seems like the bowling ball lasts so long that it catches the first hurtbox frame. :i

you might want to hold on to the ledge just a little bit longer

Won't that pretty much end in my ledge invincibility ending?

I mean Villager's bowling ball doesn't have the active hitboxes to beat all the get up options outside of timing so maybe you can mess your friend's timing by holding on to the ledge a little longer / immediately doing a get up options.
tbh i never heard or seen bowling ball being used as a ledgeguard option

it's like my go to ledgeguard option since it's just so good!
generally when you have your invincibility frames, you won't get bowling balled so try not regrabbing the ledge i guess?
or if you could try not going low (bowling ball reach) more mid to high recovery.

It shouldn't hit you if you use a roll getup.

In fact, that is exactly what roll getups are designed to defeat.

just be scared if he plants a tree by the ledge, chops it once.

You roll, he'll bowling ball behind him. Normal getup or jump? TREE

XD

Never seen this trump before:

That's just trumping after a lloid hits the stage. Neat trick, but not very noteworthy.

HAHAHA I love this.

That's actually really smart, and useful XP
