[Help/Discussion] Preserving NYEH combos

[Rubbermaid]

NYEH is without a doubt the best aerial in the game, and hence stringing together multiple NYEHs should be one of the better combos, however I can't say I've ever gotten more than 3 hits in a 1v1. Are there any obstacles in place which prevent the combo from extending infinitely, or is it all down to good reads?

It's possible to escape after the first NYEH or two if your opponent is grounded. In mid air, to my knowledge it is impossible to escape until they hit the ground. That's useful because if you hit a crumpet dash while they're in the air it can link into NYEH while still in the air, allowing you to get 4 or 5 NYEH's off guaranteed.

I've found it's easier to land more nairs if you shield drop right after using one. I've gotten this to work only after the first nair, though, but that can guarantee you at least two nairs.
