The Knee

[giantimi]

Will it still be as good?

Discuss!

[Layupfreak]

we dont know yet.

[LuLLo]

How dare you ask the question ''Will it still be as good?''...
Even if Sakurai nerfed C.Falcon like hell, he would still own, cause Falcon defies Sakurai and goes on a rampage-tour to the top of the tiers until there is no one to be knee'd anymore...

No seriously, it will still be good, that's a given :)...

[shanus]

well we know its still there, but i have yet to see it connect on anyone.

[Fyre]

i havent even seen any vids with him using it. maybe i just missed it. links plz

[Anth0ny]

It BETTER still be good.

[kirborg]

i saw a video in which he used it, it *looked* the same as in melee. but we cant be sure until someone tests it.

That was his weak knee attack.

[Prevail]

Yeah, that knee wasn't sweet spotted.

Hopefully someone will be able to fully connect soon :p.

Being a Falcon main i went searching for the "Knee" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCQWwvZYE1c at 2:30-2:33 look for the random falcon punch at the bottom right, look closely as jiggs rolls to falcon and he knees her. Happy to be of Help Falcon <3

Woot, electric knee returns:

Ya ive seen that one also its hard to tell if its a up a or the knee, just watch the one i submitted much more clear.

[rubiksfriend]

I could barely see what happened, but it appeared to be sweetspotted. Even if Sakurai nerfs the Cap, he can still whoop a** and go on a rampage, with knees, of the top tier.

I wonder how that guy feels to have done the first ever wall jump reverse falcon punch in Brawl.

[RedMage8BT]

You spelled it wrong. It's the KNEE!

[Big Bob]

To me, it looks like Falcon is virtually unchanged. The only difference I've noticed is the timing on his cliff grabbing (which was improved).

[Black_jo]

falcon is the same

Hmmm... even though the wall stopped jiggly's trajectory, I'd wager Falcon's knee is just as strong as Zelda's f-air. Also, both of these attacks have a substantial amount of freeze-frames, so they're likely similar in power.

Thoughts?

(By the way, if you haven't seen Zelda's F-air yet, check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgVH9OGugSo)
(It's at 1:49 and KO's Mario easily at 76%)

[SpitFire15]

It would have been cool if The Knee would have a matrix effect like Zelda's Lighting Kick, but as long as it still cracks skulls, it's fine.

[Wikipedia]

Wow, I'd say his knee has been nerfed pretty hard.

39 seconds inI think that is actually his dair. I have been noticing his dair sends them horizontally now..

Zelda Fair actually got a decent buff. It didn't need it, but then again it is practically all Zelda has.

[gamer8]

Falcon Knee FTW!

[W.Jr]

I'm positive is still has the same affect.

your right, upon rewatching really closely thats his dair :-O

[Speedsk8er]

Wait.... what?

[Eternal_Samus]

the corneria one was a down air, you can see the start up lag, but the properties are apparently way different.

[RedMage8BT]

I'm glad Falcon's Dair was changed. It was annoying.

[shanus]

well, in some cases, you can see his downair still spike, but in others, hit outwards. This is a growing trend common with falco's dair and mario fair now, too

[2007]

hurray for knee!

[TakDragon7]

Knee FTW! Without that...who knows what CF could do XD

ESAM!!! I thought it was a knee because of the way Falcon landed, but there was no electricity. Then I read your post and watched it again. . . . Falcon's Dair is weird.

[S2]

Looks like the d-air to me.

Anyone got a vid of the knee sweetspotting? Surprised we haven't seen it yet.

[AzureWing]

The knee trumps all!!!

[Mr. Ryu]

The knee obliterates everything in its path!

[Reinhart_x]

Personally I'd like the enemy to explode in this one if you sweetspot it, but that's just me. ^_^

[EdSam]

How hard would it be to make a short knee vid? The video showing everyone's final smashes had an intro and outro where link and ganon synchronized their crouches with the music. If people have time to make that, why not show us the knee? We're all waiting!!!!!

[Team Giza]

At 1:20 A SWEET SPOT KNEE

Looks like it will kill light weights at around 50-60%. Yay.

[slimjim]

That site's japanese, how do you watch the vid?
