Hey thanks. That was actually really helpful and I'll definitely try practising edge guarding like that next time I'm in training mode.You have asked few questions in a few different posts so far but im gonna respond to this one in particular.
First off, if there are people who are actively interested in getting better i'd be happy to play sometime and do some 1v1s and see if I cant give any advice/pointers
Now for the edge guarding question. Edge guarding is both incredibly simple and incredibly difficult. Simply put edge guarding is anything you to stop the opponent from getting back to the stage. Doing it is the hard part.
Being able to edge guard essentially asks a two questions
1. What tools does your character have to edgeguard?
2. What tools does your opponent have to recover?
To get answers to these questions, the fastest way is to go to character discords. For example, the ridley discord just finished a big weeklong discussion with the pichu discord where they they spent an entire day talking about this particular topic. Lots of matchups are still being discussed but there is still a ton of information done by people who are labbing all this out.
With all that being said, your ability to edgeguard is going to largely depend on how quickly and accurately you can answer those two questions stated earlier during any given match. There are alot of characters and alot of nuance to it all so thats where the "just play a ton" mindset comes in, because an incineroar recovering high vs a wolf recovering low are two very different situations.
To wrap some thoughts up here are some questions and practice ideas for ya.
Questions to ask yourself
1. Do you know every characters recovery works?
2. How far off stage can you and your character go and still make it back?
Practice ideas
1. Go to training and pick an opponent with a very straightforward/exploitable recovery
2. Pick any tourney legal stage
3. set them to like 60, hit them off the stage and try preventing them from getting to the stage/ledge.
See what works and what doesnt. Get comfortable with your tools and what you can get away with.
Hope this helps!
EDIT:
One of many examples of someone who knows the tools of their character AND how their opponent is going to try and recover

The japanese version's title is an idiom about standing out in a sea of menWho's bright idea was it to call Isabelle's Classic Mode "Best in Show?"
I thought it would be all animal opponents but... Yikes.
"Girl's Night... and Popo"The japanese version's title is an idiom about standing out in a sea of men
Surprised they didn't just go with something like "Girl's night!"
he's the designated driver

I'd take you up on the offer of some 1 vs 1 but the times when I get even 30 mins to play in one sitting vary so much.
Umm excuse me sir. You play a version of Smash that has a stage that literally transforms throughout the match. I mean I don't have a problem with that but you forfeit the right to complain about a tilting stage.
They accept it and play on it so I don't want to hear jack shit complaining about a stage that tilts.There aren't enough viable stages in Melee to ban more of them
(and people have been trying to freeze Stadium for years, but daddy Nintendo won't even let them use UCF much less further mods)
The argument is: why do it if you don't have to?They accept it and play on it so I don't want to hear jack shit complaining about a stage that tilts.
Question: I was 1-1 using Lucina vs Ike. He beat me no contest. I had no way to counter his constant charge attacks. Even if I blocked it, he still got his follow up jabs in before I could. It was like my controller was stalling on me. Even if I dodged it he would somehow end up behind me and jab away.
I tried to low attack when he charged towards me but it did nothing.
How do I counter this line of attack with Lucina? I had mild success with dancing blade, but that's about it.
Lucina can up b out of shield incredibly fast. By charge attack you mean dash or a smash attack? Charge is pretty easy to shield but his jab comes out faster than most (frame 4 or so) so that's why you could be falling for it.
Because I prefer to play the game that I have instead of listening to other people complain that it's not the game they wish they had.
Piranha Plant might be the exception, if it was originally planned as part of the base game and moved to DLC as a result of deadlines.With DLC characters getting Guidances, I'm not really too sure we'll get any "bonus" echoes added in a patch or whatever. There's a new added step and cost to an echo.
I'm not convinced that anyone past piranha plant will have a guidance. He was decided on long before any fighter pass character from the sound of it.With DLC characters getting Guidances, I'm not really too sure we'll get any "bonus" echoes added in a patch or whatever. There's a new added step and cost to an echo.
The guidance text files just use character names for the file names. They didn't need to leave a gap.Out of curiosity, what were the guidances named and placed as? I only ever had the music files, not the audio. I'm curious if there was a gap left for PP that got filled (like the fanfare) or if it just got kicked to the end.

I would love to know some general advice against inklings too, they're so fast and their dash makes them so hard to see.Any advice for a Mewtwo/Olimar/Snake main against Inkling? I've been switching to Corrin because it's a slightly better matchup imo, but I have a lot of trouble dealing with Inklings. Even basic ones can combo me to hell and I can't ever seem to mash out of the roller

I don't think there's been any real rumors about her recently, have there?
Doesn't lucina's down b literally counter? Wouldn't this be applicable?
Jr hasn't changed much, other than cleaning up some animations to make them a bit smoother and making the Clown Car have more personality
Im cool with that, but is there something I missed confirming* that?

She could be playing a character in Mortal Kombat 11. They seem to be revealing characters pretty quickly for that game.
