Pillaring is used a lot in high-level play, and for a good reason.  Pillaring can inflict heavy damage on [[fast faller|fast fallers]] [[Fox]], [[Falco]], and [[Captain Falcon]].  It can also be used to destroy [[shield|shields]], as the ADA's lag time is very short when L-canceled, and the shine comes out extremely quickly, restricting the opponent's [[grab]].

Guide to Pillaring

How to Pillar

Switch off between a Down-Air, L-cancelled into a shine, and then repeat by SHFFLing another Down Air. This can be mixed up with multishines and waveshines.

Pillaring's Uses

Pillaring is used a lot in high-level play, and for a good reason. Pillaring can pressure an opponent in a shield, forcing them to roll out of it, which can be chased. It is possible to be shield-grabbed, but it requires very good timing.

Technicalites

Of course, like other combos, Pillaring can be influenced by DI (Directional Influence). If one is not quick enough, one's opponent can escape this combo.

Strategies

Against Fox in particular, Pillaring is very effective. An example of how it would be used: Shine the Fox, Wavedash out of it quickly, then short-hop ADA the Fox, and repeat.
