no edit summary
(I'd argue that the setup prevents Marth from being another character that gets eaten up by MK. Also, grammar.) |

[[File:SSBB Marth Footstool Spike to Stage Spike.gif|thumb|Marth [[edgeguarding]] using a forward aerial to the footstool spike, then a [[stage spike]] to [[punish]] the opponent's [[meteor cancel]]. To perform it, Marth must short hop a [[footstool jump]] and immediately perform a [[down aerial]] while facing the same direction as his opponent. This will allow the [[sweet spot (hitbox)|tip of his sword]] to hit and [[meteor smash]] the opponent.]] | |||
'''Vertical spacing''' (using a footstool to setup the move) is also a method of sweetspotting the attack, though this is unreliable, because of the insanely difficult read needed to land the footstool. | |||
Some [[character]]s are difficult or impossible to vertical space, as their falling speeds are too great. It is impossible to vertical space on {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}, {{SSBB|Ike}}, Marth, {{SSBB|Ivysaur}}, {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}, {{SSBB|Pikachu}}, {{SSBB|Peach}}, {{SSBB|Zelda}}, {{SSBB|Sheik}}, {{SSBB|Sonic}}, and {{SSBB|Wario}}. However, it still works by footstool jump 2 times or more for a tipped down aerial to hit. It works best on small, light characters, such as {{SSBB|Kirby}}, {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, and {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}, but even {{SSBB|Bowser}} can be vertical spaced with little difficulty. | Some [[character]]s are difficult or impossible to vertical space, as their falling speeds are too great.
