Counter Tips

  • Space yourself so explosive light doesn't reach you. No escape from the nair chain. Stay floaty and come down with nair and combo off of that. Its rough, but managable
  • When Palutena is landing or whiffs a laggy move, threaten her with jet hammer. It's likely that she'll pop her counter; if she does, wait it out and you got a free hit, possibly a stock.
  • Recover low or get blazed. Her neutral B has tons of ending lag and if you keep moving it's not that hard to dodge. Optimal position for you is basically hugging her: downtilt and ftilt are your frien
  • Like a lot of bad matchups, it's gonna come down to mind games and psychic aptitude. Play cautiously. NEVER SUCC GORDO. Gordo is your bodyguard.
  • Use gordo a lot less in neutral in this matchup. Palu's projectiles hit gordo back. Just play patient and wait for the palu to approach and pushish laggy options. Use gordo to edgeguard/ledgetrap.
  • Spam up tilt, anti-airs, and up air.
