I'm not as sure about him being lighter though...

I would like to mention the Ridley’s up B can spike your opponent off the stage if you use it from above. It’s rare, but if you’re above the edge while your opponent is also trying to get back, you can punish with an up B downward. This is a very rare thing, though, and it’s very risky.

I would like to point out that you can do Ridley’s side B to get closer to the edge and then an up B for recovery, granted this is not always possible in certain situations, but it works. side B can also be used to counter some edge guarding techniques, the timing and spacing is difficult as all hell to get down but once you get it figured out it works in most situations.

Down B doesn't have any follow ups? Well they have 4 options Roll away from you-this can be covered by a side B always Get up attack- can be dodged and hit with a down smash always Roll towards you-can always be covered with a Down smash Or They can do nothing in which you can F smash or just give em another down smash I've been waiting for someone to make a video where they mention follow ups to ridleys down B and the mind games that ensue as soon as you hit with it but I guess this was not the video for it. Like if they're too close to the ledge they might try a get up attack but if you hit it center stage they might be trying to just get away using the roll away.

Ridley’s difficult in a different way than most characters. His play style is simple and easy to learn, but is also very susceptible to exploitation in terms of recovery and endlag. So, on the opposite side of the spectrum, he’s also easy to take care of.

Some extra Pro tips for ridley If your lucky enough to land a skewer, always follow up with down smash, unless you're confident they will roll away, then use side special instead. When recovering, use side special into upward up special when recovering low, don't aim your recovery foward unless you have no other option. Fireball really fucks with terrible recoveries use whenever possible, but to get the best distance, go to the edge of the stage, then short hop away to get the fireballs to hug the ledge perfectly. Down taunt to assert dominance

As a Ridley main this video needs to point this out: -single press B to spit one fireball to stall opponents running towards you and combo them. -up B and aiming it down can spike if correctly timing it when the opponent is recovering. Don’t hold down as you fly down or you won’t be able to grab the edge. Just tilt the stick down long enough for the input and then let go. -down A can stop some upward projectiles, such as Ness’ pk thunder and Peach’s turnips. In Ness’ case it comes in handy since his attack animation is long and you can cancel his thunder, fall quickly on top/next to him and combo him. -Use side b to punish rolls. Same with skewer. -With heavy characters, there’s a 50/50 chance that right after using down throw and using skewer, you’re gonna land the hit.

I love the flavor of Space Pirate Rush. SSBB showed Ridley slamming Samus into a wall and dragging her across it (and the Metroid games canonized it as a signature move of his), and after all these years when he's finally playable he has a "drag peoples faces across surface" ability. Perfection. Does seem a little odd flavor-wise to have a character who canonically has big-ass wings and spends so much time in the air to only have three jumps and an incredibly finicky UpB. I personally wouldn't mind a little more of his power pie shifted to mobility and recovery and a little less from some other category (Kill potential? Weight?), but that's nickpicking of a character who very mostly fits the fantasy of "Ridley" from a very casual player. I'm just happy the sadistic demon got into the Smash roster.

I love how ridley has such a fixed facial expression for his jab. It just looks so funny.

Down air can be useful if you have a stock lead and your opponent is below you when you are on ledge, as long as they are right below you

As a Ridley main, I use his down air fairly often in off stage and position obtaining. It cancels out a lot of ranged attacks, and even jabs get neutralized. Other things I abuse are his side b on stages like green hill zone or mario bros. Or I use his command grab in combination with his down b and then up dodge and recover for off-stage fighting. It's a really risky maneuver that only really works when you have high percentage and/or a stock you can lose, but the opponent is almost always going to fail the recovery.

His backthrow only does 1% less than up throw! Also between 0-10% down throw into skewer is a 50/50 mix up. Been maining him basically since I settled on a main and hes super fun!

Down smash after Skewer (down b) covers every option other than roll away. It covers every option if you hit it at ledge.

I only play casually with friends but a good combo I've found in neutral B to forward B. A full charged neutral B has enough juggle for forward B to connect. Ledge gaudrd after.

Something you didn’t mention with his Neutral B, while charging, if he’s hit he has a similar effect to Joker’s Royal guard in which he’ll take a set amount of damage with no knock back.

While you don't recommend side B offstage to recover with a Chance of taking your opponent with you, I've pulled off that cheeky move a few times on people either trying to edge guard me or who just stood too close to the ledge. The ensuing upward throw just stage spikes them at mid to high percentage and has a high change of gimping even Falco at low to zero percent.

I've learned that you can catch people off guard at low percents with a down throw into a down special. Doing over use it because it is punishable

Good vid but just so you know, you can press the jump button to immediately cancel the grab. I've got so many kills by doing the space pirate rush off stage (especially against foes who are edge-guarding at the very end of the stage). Also for recovery, if you are off-stage horizontally, it is always better to use side B to close the distance first, Ridley's up B is most reliably going up so just use it when you are close to under the stage.

Forgot to say that the side B is also very useful to recover, as you can use up B after it.

Ridley is underrated i see maybe one every 10 hours of solo battles, not to mention everyone plays the same characters lately. all the same sword anime characters and the occasional ganon, link and lucas. there are over 70 characters and i really only get to fight like 8 of them online

Ridley can spike with his recovery. Prolly my favorite shit that smash pulled. I did it against a friend one time as a last resort thing, I was at 170 and he was at 90. If I whiffed it he would either let me die or try to spike me to piss me off. Let's just say he doesn't play smash anymore XD
