goddamn they're annoying.

What do you usually do to get around them? What has worked in the past?
Any input is appreciated.

Raptor under high lasers, nair over low lasers, and otherwise use typical anti-laser strats other characters use, like CC or quick OoS movement. Powershielding also helps. If you're close enough to just hit Falco, do it.

If you're on a stage that isnt FD, abuse the living hell out of platforms.

^ and this guy is totes right in saying to go for hitting falco if you can. What you need to strive to do (at least in my experience) is to space close enough so that he doesn't go for lasers often but not be right in his face to avoid being caught by a shine, d-tilt, grab, or any not fun falco stuff.

you can short hop over the short lasers which is really helpful.
