Yoshi's DJC combos are most effective on floaty characters, especially since his up tilt cannot combo them, unlike with fastfallers. Yoshi can often finish his DJC combos with a forward aerial [[meteor smash]] on most characters. | ||
Yoshi can perform this technique in ''Melee'' as well, though it is less effective, albeit still potent and useful in his metagame. | |||
