Extended Recovery

Kirby can maximize his horizontal recovery by pairing every aerial jump with F-air which allows him to recover much farther horizontally. Kirby still gains some vertical distance as well.

Down Air Up Tilt

Kirby's D-air is used extensively for edge guards. Its large knockback can destroy many characters (such as Captain Falcon, Mario, Luigi, and DK). It can also be comboed into an uptilt. Make it so the last hit of the down air doesn't hit, then do 3 up tilt, then back air. Against different chars, you can use uptilt multiple times.
