What's the importance of stage control and how do you abuse it as falco?

Lol why do you say that? Like are you just saying he should mix up his play style or saying he shouldn't play like that?

Soft dair is a timing thing. The longer dair has been out then the "softer" the dair. Soft dair is used in examples for pillaring marths a lot. So to do the soft dair instead of starting the dair when you reach marth you start it on your way up to him. @Breakfast_ Hoooooollllyyyyy...

Ay this isn't some big point or anything but I've been using shield stop lasers recently against marths (well I've been using it in general but specifically against marth) and it has been working really well for me. Especially if the marth likes to corner / wall you out. The shield stopping...

Pretty sure it's just to mix up - falco doesn't really have perfect ledge stall options like shino stalling for instance so he has to mix it up. If you firefox stall it may be better for invincibility but a marth could still downtilt you out of it. Other people could throw there opinions on...

Man there's a lot of different spacings lol - like spacing around your oponnent so you avoid their attacks or spacing around something in specific like trying to avoid getting shield grabbed. So yeah that would help you just learn and be more aware of your ranges - IDK if he has any posts on it...

It'd probably help if you explained your thoughts some more for this question. Like "Falco dittos don't make sense to me" That's a really broad statement. And the fox thing - are you going in when they're on the platform or keeping center stage or what? If you're under them I really like...

How do I utilize having good stage positioning to abuse my opponent? People always talk about how good having center stage is but I don't really know how to use it. I feel like bairs are pretty good if I'm chilling around the inner lip of a side platform in center stage and my opponent is on...

Uh shouldn't really matter too much lol besides placebo / comfort or something.

@Jackson what' s weird is that you can do it low from a short hop but not high in the air so I'm assuming that you are running at the opponent (holding right for example) and then I'm assuming you "roll" sort of to the tap jump position so you have no real opportunity to get stuck cause you...

Ayyy @Bones0 at S@X the commentators were saying you were really good at the Marth match up. Do you have any insight on this match up? What's your "gameplan" going against a Marth?

Thanks sick response Bones. Helps a lot :) Kinda in relation to this. When you're boxed out of center stage in my mind there are 4 options but I could be looking at this wrong. 1 - Out-move them / avoid them and try to sneak by (Roll by, full jump over, waveland to plat above you then go from...

IDK about strongest because I don't like generalizing but I agree it's definitely a really good method of play. That's why I need to learn how to learn about it / from playing these players haha. http://smashboards.com/threads/drastic-improvement-under-construction-for-apex.311129/ Under the...

If you hit up on the control stick instead of X/Y it is a little more lenient on the timing and you have ~4 frames around that time as opposed to if you used the button where you would have to hit it exactly when you want to jump. Also opinions on a certain "matchup" that I'm having trouble...

I'm sure there are some higher level players that could help out with this more so I'd LOVE if someone else could throw some insight out there. But here's how I use / see it used OFFENSIVELY : Shield pressure - it's a quick move that is awesome for shield pressuring and can protect you after...
