Tips for Ike

    Nair all the time
    SH Nair can combo into almost everything. 0% Nair -> Nair Nair -> Fair Nair -> FSmash Nair -> RAR Bair DTilt is very similar.
    SH Nair to UTilt is true until mid-high percents, provided that you hit it close enough. This can lead into other followups depending on what the opponent does, such as Uair, USmash or grab.
    Landing just short of an enemy with Quick Draw can serve as a surprise, as you are expected to hit them with the move. This is most effective if your opponent has a counter, as they would fail.
    If you space well using down tilt after a missed neutral air is a great option since your opponent is going to probably drop shield and try to punish.
