So, among his other beefs, I've noticed that Kirby's down b has been changed pretty dramatically. On the ground, it appears to have a semi-spike hitbox at some points of it, which I've been using to set up combos by turning to stone and then immediately turning back, which has the effect of pushing the opponent back a fair distance. Has anyone else figured out some new ways to use the down B?
Also, as a side note, I've been using it during recovery sometimes to try and be less predictable. It also has the added bonus of more or less freezing your vertical (but not horizontal) movement for a few frames after transforming out of the stone, which can be used as a last-ditch effort to try and recover if you're high up and out of jumps.
