Zelda's Footstooling Potential

[Mentor]

Can anyone comment on zelda's footstooling potential? I spent a weekend practicing it & researching it as a potential combo enhancer, & it appears to be quite effective against certain characters assuming they don't tech/ cancel the footstool. One example is Tink. Starting @ 0%, you can up-smash (or dash->up-smash) into a footstool while they are in hitstun. If they don't tech, you can jazz hands/bair & continue w/ jazz hands or continuously hit w/ 1st hitbox of up-air. I was able to get tink from 0-72% with essentially 1 continuous combo on fd. Btw, footstool + jazz hands + starting hit-box of u-b can all be in 1 combo here.

I would assume its pretty limited, since you have low mobility and few ways to gimp someone as opposed to killing them outright, so they will never be in range of a footstool, and if you are you could probably just dair. But I haven't tried, so that's all theorycraft.

Jazz hands? Lol. Also, you can't tech a footstool

I never footstool with Zelda mainly because she's so floaty. I'll lab it though and see what I can come up with.

Edit: also, CPU Falco just teched my footstool. =\

Edit 2: JK maybe he didn't. Probably just landed first after up smash. But I got up smash up smash footstool jazz hands up smash uair on him (granted, suboptimal/no DI, but it's at least worth noting).

Crow posted a video on how you can autocancel up air into footstool. But adding footstool into combos is something I guess I can try.
Also footstool into autocancel up air! That's genius! Welp time to try it here and there. Although I use all the buttons so I can't map anything to taunt so I guess I'll awkwardly press the taunt button the d-pad.
