just wanted to pop in and say Falcon suuuuucks what happens when Melee top 8 becomes Fox/Falco/Marth/Sheik/Jiggs/Peach/Yoshi/Samus and people realise that CF was never actually a good character; he just had a bunch of talented die-hards playing him. but now they've all quit or switched to Fox...

how won't it function like he claims it will? even if it had a very specific mid/upper body range, opponents would have to be careful with spacing or they might eat a quick up smash and get sucked into a major combo. I can see it being especially useful if an opponent were to whiff an arial...

Led Zeppelin marathon 24/7 gets me hard

well, I mean fanboyism for Nintendo and it's characters, not the game itself. but, yes, I agree.

all of this is a result of one singular fact: Brawl is a poorly designed game. and as Eternal Yoshi pointed out, it's one of the few games I know of where the developer created the game with open contempt for the people that would play it; when the developer tries to force the hand of the...

easy to say, but this statement reeks of "because melee". and you'll notice that Falcon is quickly becoming irrelevant in the Melee metagame; it's pure theorycrafting that puts Falcon even at mid-tier in PM.

I use L for everything... I don't think I've ever touched my R button. I would like to start using Z to cancel, though... it's rather precise, and if I'm not mistaken you can mash it if you're in a panic as well.

I can see where you're coming from, but it won't screw up your timing unless you exclusively practice in slo-mo (which would be silly). wavedashing is a rhythm, and once you obtain that rhythm you can execute it at whatever speed you want. I am tempted to suggest that you would be even better at...

recently I began practicing wavedashing in training mode with slo-mo turned on, and gradually speeding it up. as a musician, I've always been told "if you can't do it slow, you can't do it fast", so often the best way to learn complex licks is to do it reeeaaally slowly. speed comes naturally...

face it guys, Falcon was low tier this whole time, we just didn't know it.

badass, but he'll never compete with the big boys; he's pure showboat.

Bikini Marth?

you know, I've been against the idea of Pichu from day one, but after reading this post I'm open to it. I mean, it's not really an issue of IF they bring Pichu back... it's if they can make him into an interesting character. a character that does big damage to his opponent and in the process...

Roy Roy Roy. I used to be a Marth main waaaay back, and then switched to the Captain... but lately it's been feeling like CF is strictly mid-tier material. switching back to Marth is a bit of a yawn-fest, so I'm more than happy to start working on my Roy and see how he keeps up. Samus and...

ahh, I agree with OP... spikes aren't a problem in a vacuum, but the characters that got them already had great movesets to begin with. you might say it's difficult to KO with these moves, but... well, at least in the case of Marth and Falco, I see lots of spike kills from these two characters...
