At certain times, you can jump and do sideb and it hits.

Nice! Tried it out once I saw this post.

btw, Your sonic is Crazy Good dude!

I've actually seen some of your matches on Youtube and I'm impressed, Lite2Key!
Maybe I should try to work on defense instead of offense...

Few more little things with Sonic:
Aerial Spring sends opponents towards the direction they were hit from. AKA if you get hit from the left by the spring, you get sent towards the left. I thought it was 50/50 until I actually looked at it earlier today. Helpful to know because you can follow up with a nice bair from it. Still not 100% if anyone else figured that one out or not.

And since somehow nobody knew about it except for me for a year now, I'll go ahead and mention that Spring Bug can be fixed by jumping and landing. It seems that getting hit immediately after using spring makes the game think you're constantly using spring, so you're basically stuck able to do everything you can do normally after using spring. So literally jumping and landing resets recovery and you're good. I don't think you can attack. Just jump, land, you're back.

Annnddd last but not least, ground spring can act like a makeshift shield. I've seen it stop Samus charge shot. Not sure what else it works with, but for some reason it seems to act like an invincible stationary projectile. Considering it also auto cancels aerials when you're bouncing on the spring, you can use it to edgeguard somewhat effectively.

That's basically all I've gotten out of spring since I mentioned it having potential a month ago.

Nice.

About the spring bug, I think some people knew this, but it didn't matter if you already used your second jump before using spring. This has happened to me. Also I think a few times I wan't able to do anything after getting hit by spring.

Hooray for the spring! *bows down to the spring*

Ole Ole Ole Ole..... New Spring... New Spring.... Ole, Ole Ole Ole.... New Spring... New Spring...

Auto-dash is pretty much my style when it comes to playing as Sonic.

I've found that to be odd sometimes. I haven't checked it out but it might have some auto-adjust when you're in the air, or it has more sweet-spot. Nevertheless, I only use side b as a suprise attack rather than have it part of my game play style.

BTW: Has anyone noticed that Sonic's grab is exceptionally good for grabbing people out of attacks? Grabbing Sora from side b is very easy. And shield grabs are even better.

I always try to only use it immediately AFTER my F-Throw as a follow up but I don't rely on it alot.

Shorthopping backwards and adjusting side b could help.

That's a good idea. But would should I do considering D-Air though?

Unless it's a larger character, like DK, I dont think it would work too well. Most people would probably tech away, or just get up attack you.

I think since Sonic's Bounce attack was removed in Beta, they should make his D-air like in SSB4.
But to be honest, I use the auto-dash with him to be both defensive AND offensive. But does anyone think that Hyper Sonic should be an alternate for Sonic?
