Like the title says, for an example, a link B-Airs you just under the ledge of FD, anyway of recovering?

Unless you have your double jump available, or you are able to get to the ledge with up b, there isn't much to do to recover in that situation. If you are close enough to the stage, you could possibly air dodge onto the main stage, but that's difficult since Bowser is so huge.

Try to never get into this situation. Always DI up high when sent off stage. Only recover low if they are coming off stage to edge-guard you, other than that recover through them or over them. You have to read hard to recover well. :p

If this happens you are pretty much dead unless you get lucky and he misses.
