As a Ness main, I start almost all matches on a stage with a platform by sending a PK Thunder right below their platform before dropping myself. This surprises them (usually too fast for them to react) and keeps me out of range from most projectiles (I don't go to tourneys, so if I did I would definitely need to mix this up more but it's a good starting move for online play).
