    Official 4BR Tier List v1.0 - Competitive Impressions

    Lol what did Abadango even do there? I blinked and then saw him charge an upsmash on a confused Lucario.

    Mario's really suffers from a lack in speed and range. I'll play Falco against Marios any day because I'm comfortable up close. You can't be one of the best if you lack the speed and range to beat most characters up close.

    Yeah Sheik needles have like Falco laser cooldown and less range. Crazy.

    Falco feels the same. If he had less endlag on his jab 1 to combo into the buffed usmash that's all I could ask for.

    I go to tournaments. I need to go to more, but I rest my case. The reality is that people need to simply figure out what they're doing wrong and adjust - like a good player. How much that helps will vary for each matchup, but don't be so quick to blame a character for losing. Can anyone...

    Somebody once told Sol that Mac holds him back. He replied saying "I hold Mac back". For the sake of the metagame, that's the mindset we need to have. The scene will die if everyone goes around thinking the top 10 are the only characters worth using.

    Exactly. My neutral against high tiers like Mario is almost cheese. Up close a lot of matchups get almost turned upside down because Falco has the range advantage.

    There are a few things that I'm just now trying in depth with Falco, and I've performed much better ever since. He's a busted character like many others, but I don't feel helpless when I fight top tiers - just missing matchup knowledge. He's no Fox, but definately not Zelda or even Lucina. Oh...

    Nah I'm not War Chief. I know about Keitaro and Cyro. Even with pocket top tiers Keitaro just isn't good enough as a player to show the pinnacle of a character. I've never even seen Cyro on livestream. Falco and many others need near top level play to really show their worth. Everyone I play...

    ZSS continues to fall behind it seems. Top 3? Not anymore potentially.

    Falco doesn't have a really notable player to really show what the character can do at his peak. A good portion of this roster is very underdeveloped. He's in the middle of the roster I feel. A lesser of the high tiers but has slowly looked more solid as time and patches have came.

    Meta Falco: Approaches and Combos/Strings

    It won't work on every character at just any percent. Some characters need damage built up first like lighter ones. I can't give specific characters at thr moment but the timing and spacing of the uair does take some lab practice.

    Most underdeveloped characters in the current meta?

    He may not one of the most underdeveloped, but I have yet to see a tournament Falco that uses the character properly along with being a good player. Keitaro is decent, but Falco keeps getting buffs and exploration with almost no change in tournament results. Pretty sad.

    Meta Falco: Approaches and Combos/Strings

    The tip for standard air attack is not even a true combo. It's really bad advice since most characters can jab or shield you during the landing lag.

    Meta SSB4 Falco Matchup Discussion 55 - Cloud - Piece of cake, I'll make first in no time!

    F-smash is punishable on block. You can't just punish with anything you want though. I usually do dash attack or jab depending on the spacing of F-smash. D-smash isn't worth trying if you shield the second hitbox. I'm not sure if any character can punish that unless it is spaced very poorly.
