So I've been playing Brawl for the past couple of days and have recently been playing with ZSS a lot, so I figure I'd confirm a few things with you guys. When I first started using her, I got owned HARD over and over and I started to think that she just sucks. But then I learned how to use her Down B effectively, which is one of her KEY moves. I'll try to go into as much detail as possible about the move.
So it's basically a flip jump that has zero lag. (watch vids for exactly flight pattern of the jump) So from the moment you press down B, you'll jump in the air instantly and quickly. I'm pretty sure there are a few frames of invulnerability at the beginning of the jump, but I'm not 100% certain on that. Once you reach the peak of the jump, you can tap B again to do fairly powerful kick on your way down (it kinda looks/hits like a sex kick). This kick can only be used with the down B jump. Also, after you use the down b jump, you CAN jump again but you can't re-use the down b over and over.
If you hit your enemy in the right spot, it can be used as a spike as well! It's a really good edge guarding technique and with ZSS's moveset, you can go pretty far out from the ledge.
