Usually when I get them to trip after up b I'll just punish with another up b since it seems to always work for me. I'm wondering if there's any true combos we can do from this useful trip or what you other bowsers do in this situation.

I always go for Klaw after a Fortress trip. Dash attack works, too.

Usually another fortress, a few times I've gotten Dsmash, and Dtilt. You could probably get down B off of it too.

Up-B again. I got three Up-B trips in a row a bunch. Really see no need into any other follow ups when Up-B is more guaranteed damage. Unless you want to go for a kill move at a certain percentage.

So which of our kill moves is guaranteed out of an Up-B trip? lol

Klaw does depending on the percent! Requires quick reaction time though.

I know Klaw kills but...it's guaranteed out of Fortress Trip? If so...awesome.

I usually chase the opponent and try to Bowser Bomb them, since tripping after Fortress usually causes a knee-jerk defensive reaction and they roll away from you.

Basically, it's not reliable at all.

It's just something that you take advantage of when it happens.

You WOULD go for the Bowser Bomb tech chase.

I Side B too, when I get the chance, or Dtilt if near the edge at mid-percentages. Often I just mash Up B again in haste.
