Slade should D-Air his Treasure Chest offstage to bounce :)#4

I posted this on the previous patch and it was met well with reception!!! I am posting it again because it was posted towards the end of last patch’s lifespan:

I wanted to suggest a tool that would give his recovery an added depth without introducing anything too crazy. I feel this change would be fun and fits within the realm of the game and gives him, similarly to how Kragg can use rock side special to recover, Ranno can use down air on a bubble, La Reina using chair to recover, etc.

I would love if Slade was able to down air chest to bounce off and recover with it (see image attached)

There are two ways I was thinking this could be implemented:
-Slade could have the option to place chest directly below himself, and with the down air upgrade, he could fly down and bounce off of the chest
-Chest could fall a bit slower? And the down air upgrade could hit the chest after drifting towards it

This change would help to address the linearity of Slade’s recovery at the moment. Hookshot is a decent option at touching the wall, and it’s really useful for sweetspotting the ledge. AGT and side special are great at mixing recovery, but to find a good use for it Slade is often put into spots where his best option is to recover low, which leaves him very vulnerable in tandem with the spot his up special is currently at, that doesn’t offer enough on its own as a recovery tool imo with shield/parrying working as a very strong option against it. I think this might give him the subtle support he needs to recover.
