you made a huge shadow above him, he knew you were coming.

Somehow I doubt it was established that the fight was at noon on the equator until that moment.

This isn't a physics sim. This is a roleplaying game. Physics are what I allow them to be and it's funnier for falling creatures to have a drop shadow.

If it's large enough to impose disadvantage on a Dex save it's large enough to cast a noticable enough shadow to grant advantage, therefore a flat roll.

The dex save has nothing to do with size (beyond needing to be Small or larger to deal any damage at all). I assume the Disadvantage was because they didn't see you.
