    Applied Pivots?

    There's many forms of pivoting, and it is a staple for falcon, but the perfect turn around pivot isnt a staple, and that's the only thing im trying to get across. I don't understand how that's so complicated to understand,

    Applied Pivots?

    it aint any faster because you can jump anywhere in a dash, you can get the same type of pivot to if you time your jump on the same frame you turn around, I just think going specifically for the pivot input bogs down your game especially in tournament setting. and it's best use is a...

    Applied Pivots?

    I think theres a alittle misunderstanding. You can fadeback/forward in any aerial do pivot or not, and you should use that feature for every aerial you do. and you can do the aerials i was talking about out of a dash, which is why it does the same job. you're pivotting regardless it's just not...

    Applied Pivots?

    At the end of the day though, play with your heart if you wanna do those crazy pivots do it. If you wanna moon walk across FD and approach with a reverse knee do it.

    Applied Pivots?

    a fade back aerial is safer then a pivot and get the same job done. both produce a move at the same speed. in my opinion it clogs up neutral you can also just do a shield stop to pivot slower, easier more control. However, what makes the pivot aerial so good is how far you can fade back with...

    Applied Pivots?

    2 and 3 are the only ones you need to do, If you're fast on the jump you dont even need to do that dumb control stick input to do the pivot, plus you can just fade back in the dash to get the same effect. IMO GX pivots are dumb,

    Board Improvement Thread

    There should be an edge guarding section in each MU guide rather then just written randomly in there You can go so in depth into the spacie edgeguard for example, Forward throw- SH knee. This creates a little flow chart scenario if they double jump they get hit by hard knee, if they fade back...

    Advanced Captain Falcon Trials 2015

    Edge guard stomp(edge cancel) ----> fastfall (grab edge) Covers instant tech side b on spacies(I think) and the edge cancel is hella swag.

    Match up Hate!

    I really like Marth v falco on FD even, I started using a strat that works really well against marths and other grab happy foes. It's a technique known as the blunted object, coined by BluntedObject10, Best smash player in my region right now. Basicaly you use the shine to interupt their grab...

    Falco combo help

    My tech skill is very solid I can hit 95/100 Lcancels with Sh I'm less consistant on my FH tech, but that's being worked on. Wavelands with falco aint perfect I still have to angle the stick a bit, getting perfect horizontal Wlands are silly hard. My problem is the conversions, I know I have the...

    Are the Nintendo White Controllers Good for playing Fox

    I feel that some controllers have a less responsive stick. Some just take less effort to get that dash input. I recently got one of these controllers for back up. and hell it was better then my main controller. Maybe it's placebo, but something about the dash inputs feel right.

    Fox drill / shine questions.

    2# is just basic tech chasing. most people roll away after you shine them, some get up attack. some sit there. it's all about usuing the right move for the instance. Also alittle help with the l canceling, I find that if you press L the same time you input the fast fall you'll nail the L cancel.

    I'm a dirty scrub.

    I went to a small turni in my region just to show them my true scrubness. I'm new to the whole Turni thing, I don't know how to beat the nerves. I was wondering if you guys have any tips on how to play to my full potential. Next time I see anyone from this turni I want to show them that I...
