Character Spotlight: Zero Suit Samus

Without her bulky armor Zero Suit Samus is faster, lighter and more mobile.
She has decent recovery and her plasma whip has the ability to grab the edge.
With little in the range department, you have to get in close and rely on your speed to get back out.
Her Paralyzer weapon has the ability to stun.
Her Down Smash is an essential part of her set of moves.
Utilize her Paralyzer Special, charging it up extends its range but shoots a slower projectile. Opponents hit by the slower projectile will be stunned for a longer period of time.
Hit with the end of her Plasma Whip for the most knockback.
Use as a keep out tool to control the pace of a match and slow your opponents’ approaches.
Also, use it for recovery!
Set up traps with your stun options while keeping opponents away with Plasma Whip and your grapple.
After a successful grapple, Down Throw into Forward or Up Air to deal some nice damage at low percentages at higher percentages it can KO.
Her Up Tilt has some invincibility at the tips of her feet, this can help with airborne opponents.
Her Down Tilt pops opponents into the air diagonally, follow it with a Dash Attack.
Back Air your best bet for airborne KO’s, though her Up Air is also effective.
Down Air on airborne opponents can meteor smash as well, but you better have an extra stock because it will cost you.
From the ground, your best bets for KOs are Side Smash, Up Smash, and Flip Jump into a kick
When guarding the edge, use Paralyzer, Plasma Whip, and Flip Jump.
