'''Pillaring''' refers to pressuring an opponent's [[shield]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' by utilizing a combination of techniques ([[SHFFL]]s, [[aerial attack|aerials]], and [[shine]]s) performed by {{SSBM|Fox}} and {{SSBM|Falco}}. This is an [[advanced technique]] commonly used in high-level play. The term pillaring is also sometimes used to describe pressuring shields in general. It is not to be confused with Falco's other [[down aerial]] and shine combos. | '''Pillaring''' refers to pressuring an opponent's [[shield]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Pillaring can lead to a defending player rolling out of their shield and being chased or having their shield broken, although the latter is rare in high-level play. Pressure from pillaring is usually relieved by a successfully performed [[shield grab]] or [[out of shield]] option, such as {{SSBM|Samus}}'s [[Screw Attack (move)|Screw Attack]], {{SSBM|Bowser}}'s [[Whirling Fortress]], or even {{SSBM|Fox}}'s shine. | Pillaring can lead to a defending player rolling out of their shield and being chased or having their shield broken, although the latter is rare in high-level play.

Character with poor out of shield options are especially vulnerable because a successful shield grab requires very strict timing. | ||
