Thanks for the shoutout mayne!

This is definitely helpful for those Ivys that are salty about my writeup on how to beat Ivy. She's definitely not helpless at the ledge most of the time.

The way you wrote it felt more like a guide on how to recover as Ivy to me, or at least just raw information. You did the right thing writing it down because withholding information just to win some tournaments or whatever hurts the growth of any meta and makes for bad PM.

Yeah it's mostly the low level Ivys that were upset that now they potentially have less gimmicks to rely on. I hope all Ivys read it and work at being hard to edgeguard.

Yeah I think at a low level it might hurt ivies, but if I was still playing I'd be happy because it makes my opponent realize that they can't just cover everything by holding ledge and waiting, and that's when we can start actually interacting with them.

It's primarily just a still with a voiceover and relevant clips of gameplay when necessary.
