Counter Tips

There's literally nothing we can do. Palutena is a DIRECT counter t BK.

Stay grounded/below Palutena as much as possible, and keep in mind she will try to make us airborne. Be patient and wait until she makes a mistake, and then punish her with all you've got.

Try your best to avoid/counter Exploding Flame and Autoreticle, as those are nasty. Palutena can also Iframe her way out of WW, so use that when you're positive it will hit.

Also, be merciless (but strategic) when she's recovering. You just want to get through her stocks whenever you have a chance, even if it costs a well-placed WW or two to intercept her up b.

Finally, remember that you may be at a disadvantage, but at least you're not Ridley. Feel proud of the battle even if you only managed to last longer against her than normal.

Side B when she uses projectiles, egg as much on the ground, down grab up smash, f air as much as you can when she rushes.

Grab grab grab grab grab, grenade when they off stage to force an up b giving you free 2 frame down tilt which will kill if you hit. down throw into fair to condition. this really isn't a counter
