The Dark Knight Rises:A Smash 4 Meta Knight Guide

The Dark Knight Rises:A Smash 4 Meta Knight Guide

So. Meta Knight was nerfed a while ago, in patch 1.1.5. This took 1% off of his U-air, added and SDI multiplier of 1.5, and gave it a slightly lower angle. I've been experimenting with this move, and added what I found into the guide.
-Dash Attack-->4 or 5x U-air-->Up B still works and KOs, but at slightly higher %s than before. You will need to be able to move more, as well as read the opponent's DI.
-Honestly, everything else is pretty much the same.
I've also added more little details to almost all the sections, especially the playstyle, where I put more detail on the neutral. Please tell me if I missed anything, and have a good day.

I've added a description of the Pikachu matchup. The characters who are largely considered to be the top 5 (Sheik, ZSS, Pikachu, Rosalina, and Mario) all have their matchups against Meta Knight in this guide at the moment.
There was something odd going on in the moveset. It caused a separate spoiler to appear and split the ground moves in two for some reason. I managed to fix it. I also added matchup data for Pit/Dark Pit.
It took me 7 HOURS, but I finally managed get Meta Knight's full miveset into a section, GIFs and all. I also added matchup data for Ganondorf.
I've added 3 new matchups. Specifically, they are against Luigi, Jigglypuff, and Little Mac. I've also added detail on a kill confirm I've found while exploring the boards. Credit to Jbmill for finding it.

At the moment, I've added a new matchup data section for Mario. I plan to add more matchups as time goes on, hopefully getting to complete the whole roster. I've added a section that details a few things that could make Meta Knight work for you.

I hope this guide becomes a great one. I aim to improve this guide 'till I've added everything I can that will help beginners. Until next time.

10th update! This guide has gotten a lot of updates.
Over the past few days, I added combos, a terminology section, more depth on the recoveries, and more. Please enjoy my guide!
I added the damage that a combo does for each one and added two new combos. I also added a 'Weak Points' section so I could go more in-depth with MK's weaknesses. Stay tuned for more.
I added more things for Down B, giving it more recognition as a KO move and a punisher. I also added a match up section. I also added a section for OOS options.
Added a play style section, added rapid jab edge-cancel-->Up B to the combo section.
