No Sword Stance, because swords are overrated? (TTT2)
I was curious on when and in what way you guys use his NSS during a heated battle with your opponent. I mostly use it for the sole purpose to end the round with a gimmicks my opponent is unaware of (f+3+4 blocked, flash hits > combo [favourate one]) and to play passively by whiff punishing with df2, or block punishing with 2, 1 if mr.opponent is doing random unsafe pokes.

For me NSS is more like a back to basics playstyle, watch your spacing, poke here and there and punish. It makes Yoshi simple to use and I actually play a little more defensively but I enjoy throwing random mix-ups a lot more. I find it's also a good playstyle reset after many games cause sometimes I get carried away with risky ideas. I also use it when I'm just not having any luck with my shenanigans. This way I just calm down and focus on playing a solid game rather than worrying about what set-up I think I can land next.
My favorite set-up is actually super simple. Just randomly NSS, then step in and 1+4 lol

I don't have any real combos in NSS, but I've been using it to force people to adjust to it. Online via ranking/random quick matches the success will vary since your time to condition someone is shorter, but someone's time to adapt is also shorter. Offline, I find success in it simply because I can change the pace of a fight, and even if the other person knows my tricks in 1ss or NSS, it will still distract someone long enough to scare with a flash or change a style.
I agree, it brings just enough confusion to change the momentum of a fight or simply used for flash. Plus his NSS 2,1 and all other "finger" related moves, are some of my favorite Yoshi moves...
