--- Reflections ---
I thought it might be cool to post my thoughts on things I could improve / would change if I remade this video / spent more time on it.
I think I missed an opportunity by not having a savestate where falco does a walling aerial like backair and marth moves backwards without falco being able to meaningfully capitalize on it. I think that would be a more effective way to illustrate my main point and I regret not thinking about it sooner.
I think what happened was that I got absorbed into setting up as common and universal of a situation as possible and didn't stop to consider how well it really illustrates the point. Hopefully what I went with still makes enough sense to follow

Music provided by Lofi Girl - Listen: bit.ly/lofigirI-playlists More specifically the albums "Yokai" "Relief" "Sound Asleep" in that orderHow To Do Good Marth NairsPipsqueak2021-10-29 | IMPORTANT INFORMATION
So Spike in the Marth Discord corrected quite a few things about this video. which I will copy & paste below
You absolutely can do an instant ff and get ac nair, so the ff is actually bufferable (3f window for the inital nair input).
The ac window starts 3 frames after the hitbox disappears, which is why there is little functional difference between ac nair and slightly delayed shffl nair (You're always without an active hitbox for 7 frames)
if you hit a shield you absolutely need a different timing for the fastfall (the hitlag of the first is large enough to eat the analog buffer), but depending on the character size you should hit the shield twice before you have to ff. The combined hitlag should give you enough time to react to either delay the input or do it twice.
How hard it is to hit the crouching opponent also depends on which character it is. For example, of the nair timings that can use the buffered ff one of them can barely actually miss a crouching fox if you don't aim for his head.
If you buffer the fastfall you have a 3 frame window to input the nair right after jumpsquad, the 3rd frame leads to the lowest nair and the 2nd frame to the highest, which isn't exactly ideal because you'll want to aim for the middle one for consistencies sake.
Easy (all timings can hit) Falco Falcon Samus
Medium (Only the "tipper" hitbox hits on all timings) Fox Marth Peach
Hard (the middle timing can't hit) Sheik
Practially unviable Puff (can't hit without crouch rng) Yoshi (the middle timing will always whiff, the other timings can only hit with relatively precise spacing) Pika (only the latest timing can hit)

So I thought about this flowchart to see if I could get it more consistent. Perhaps it's not very good and then this video is useless but my initial impression is that it's superior to currently used methods.
Counterplay I know about.
SDI in and down on a shine oos when doing high UP B to touch the ground before you're sent out, refreshing jump and letting you jump back to ledge.
SDI up twice on a shine sending into the wall on sweetspot to get sent onto stage.
Do the pixel perfect furthest away sweetspot around the shield. (Heard about this, couldn't replicate it myself.)
______
I'll be trying this for the forseeable future and see if I can get more consistent results than what I currently do or not.

La Mulana - Grand HistoryWhy Tier Lists Matter - Super Smash Bros. UltimatePipsqueak2018-12-02 | I was disgruntled by all the hate for tier lists I saw on Reddit so I decided to write down my opinions on it, that turned into the script for this video.
I realise I am a bit too harsh in some parts and probably played it up without really considering it, I don't have any intentions of bashing people who dislike tier lists. I just think that they have tangible benefits and the problems with them are largely inconsequential.
