Captain Falcon vid feat. lots of knees and stomps

[bokkusu]

A short vid I made using some random match replays I had saved against CPUs which as the title says, includes lots of knees and stomps. It's nothing too great, obviously being against CPUs but I thought I'd share some clips with you as there doesn't seem to be that many floating around yet for people to watch and perhaps learn from. There's a lot more I would have liked to put in the video and share with you but unfortunately I didn't save much. Hopefully I'll get some vids against decent opponents soon if anyone is interested in more.

1:19... you can turn around Falcon Punch in midair? Well crap, that Falcon punch is fast. Good video sir. Looks much harder to sweet knees now.... which sux.... :(

[Runeblade279]

Obviously, many of the things he just did won't be possible on players (the raptor boost > knee, I don't think it's possible anymore with short hitstun)

BUT

This does showcase two very useful things that I have suspsected recently --

1 - KOing at low percentage. Very doable. The reason it hasn't been done in many videos is people spam their KO moves like in melee and then heavily reduce their damage and knockback due to the game mechanic (look general brawl boards if you don't know) but here, Falcon KOs at percents like 80, WITHOUT the stomp.

2 - The Falcon Punch is effing fast and reversable. Can't wait to test this move out more when I get my grubby hands on Brawl. =3

Oh, and the knee still kicks ***. =D

[Warlock*G]

Woohoo! Just made me wanna try out Falcon! :)

He was my favorite character in the first Smash Bros.

Like you care. >_>

snake's box taunt does damage!!!!!!!

[Reaver197]

What level were those computers at?

[Layupfreak]

i loved it, great video. thanks for the upload.

[WFL]

I'm saddened by the fact that they took out the nipple spike. That was pretty much my only reason for play CF.

Much thanks for the videos though. It doesn't seemed that he changed to much other than losing a little bit of speed and his knee having a lot of hit lag frame things, which is a good thing and a bad thing. Good because it's basically a taunt in it self, but bad because it's easier to DI.

[COEY]

Nice vid Boxy. Bring brawl round soon please. <3

:p

[Layupfreak]

i liked that video, thanks ^_^. you seem pretty used to the new sweet-spoted knee.

[Layupfreak]

WHOOPS double post!

CPUs probably were lvl 9, I know on melee a lvl 9 is rarely ever competitive, especially against speed demons like falcon, fox, and falco.

this is the type of play style I use with ganondorf and captain falcon, glad I seen this video, its one of the best falcon videos from brawl so far.

[ODIN787]

the ending was epic ,jeje, falcon's knee is the best way to castrated

[Cranberry Rogue]

Great video, definitely. I've sort of been getting the impression that Captain Falcon is a horrible character in Brawl, but this definitely gives me some hope that I've been mislead. I'm a bit disappointed by the horizontal knockback on the stomp, and of course, the less useful short hop neutral A thing, but he still looks totally fun to play as.

Oh, and nice ending. :P

[WastingPenguins]

Don't mean to be a downer but none of those combos has any chance of working on a human. Those CPUs aren't even trying to DI or evade in any way.

[Bullet]

Have to see is all I can say, its the idea that Captain Falcons speed along side viable finishing moves that makes it seem like in multiplayer that he can be a strong character, I am guessing because he would be hard to hit and is more the defensive then offensive if you play him like hes suppose to be played.

But going back to Melee, Ganondorf which is a clone of Falcon can be viable to, hes much slower but the damage and smash attack he does compared to Falcon is just insane.

We just going have to wait and see in the game if Falcon can hold his own, looking at videos I am still concerned if he can hang with some of the new characters mostly Pit and Olimar which is going to be abused in online mode I think, both seem to be upgrades to what falcon and ganondorf was in Melee.

[MewDorf]

I read somewhere that Falcon's d air didnt spike which apparently does, and im grateful for,. Falcon seems alittle bit slower but I don't think he will have too much trouble being a good character.

[Kaos29]

That video is made of pure awesome.

[slimpyman]

dude that video was good. you play falcon like i do.

[Xervah]

It's a shame that almost all of those combos will not work on a human player.

[UncleGrandfather]

It seems like you can use a falcon punch off the edge much better now, I guess just because of the slower fall speed in brawl. Good video.
