Up next is Samus!

 

[Ascen]

Even though I don't use Falco, I'm still going to watch this for the MU knowledge. Izaw knows his stuff about his characters.

 

[Daybreak502]

If it went into his smashes tilts and ariels on their own like he did with specials it would have been perfect but still best falco guide iv seen

 

[90007000]

Did he say he would do Art of Falcon? Sry for doublepost didnt mean to

dahm falco is good

 

[comics]

This is awesome. Never knew how cool Falco was in Smash 4. Very unique.

 

[FoolishPaul]

Best Character in the game imo. I mean I have the most fun with him, very underrated due to his ability to kill pretty early (bair, fsmash, dair, fair combos, dtilt kills at 125+ but it comes out pretty fast). I believe Ktar was the highest ranked Falco at evo gettting 65th. I hope someone a little bit higher picks him up to show what he can really do. Overall if you wanna pick up a solid fun, non sheik lol Falco is the way.

 

[Dylan_Tnga]

Loved the shoutout to melee falco techskill. That crazy little jungle bird...

 

[SpandexBullets]

if you need more confirmation

 

[iDreamTheater]

Haven't seen the video yet since I'm still at work, was planning on watching after. That is really nice to know!

go to the affore mentioned link. Since you cant see the video yet the confirmation is in said link

 

[Phoenix502]

okay, seriously, we need more people like Izaw, this guy does some serious lab work and can really show what a fighter's capable of... now can we get folks who do that everywhere else, even other smash games?

first with Link (twice in Sm4sh), now with Falco. I heard he plays Kirby now, I foresee a new Art of Kirby after Samus.

I'm also plenty pleased that he used exclusively Star Fox Assault music, I feel like one of the few people who actually enjoyed that game.

finally, that Falco Cosplay is Stellar! I particularly liked how they modeled his head, though the beak's a little TOO hooked, if I were to nitpick.

 

[SRUFUS3D]

Up next is Samus!

The hype is on man!!!

 

[ephOE]

Best Character in the game imo.

Too slow.

I hope someone a little bit higher picks him up to show what he can really do.

Larry Lurr is probably the best Falco but he never plays him seriously because he's also the best Fox, and has a Sheik, Luigi, and ZSS.

Off topic but awesome username dude. DT is one of my favorite bands. (Everything up until Octavarium where IMO the quality dipped and they let Jordan Ruddess get away with too much of his fairy b.s)

 

[iDreamTheater]

I appreciate it. I think that SC and ADToE were their weakest albums. Looking forward to their new material next year, hopefully it impresses!

He's already done an Art of Kirby...

 

[Uffe]

This video made Falco look a whole lot better. I decided to watch just to see what he is capable of. I'd like no surprises. Art of Samus next? Now that's pretty cool. I could use some tips.

 

[Blobface]

"Falco's N-air has a windbox"

Hair splitting aside, this seems pretty good, though I don't play Falco. Watching him land 20+ hit combos was excellent and I'd love to see what this character is really capable of.

 

[Silver_1357]

That IS Falco.

 

[ToTs]

Fix falco's jab sakurai.

 

[SpandexBullets]

But Falco still has no approach.

Like, the buffs allowed all of this amazing progress, but stuff like FC dair and that dthrow bug are extremely difficult and grant rewards that are free to so many other characters.

 

[Phoenix502]

I know, that's why I said new Art of Kirby

or are you saying Link's the only one who gets a second "Art of..." video in the same game?

 

[NGUY (guitarstage)]

Good... (Zelda CDI)

 

[WinterShorts]

Man, I knew Falco had potential, then I look at this.





Wow. (Makes me want to play Falco! Even though I'll probably play Yoshi right afterwards, but still!)

 

[Solutionme]

I'd enjoy seeing one for Marth, I'd love to know if that dair cancel applies to every character.

 

[HFlash]

THANK GOD WE FINALLY GOT A FALCO (AKA NOT SHIEK) META ADVANCING VIDEO!!!!!! PRAISE THE SUN!

 

[Tahu Mata]

Excellent guide. Hopefully this will make more people pick up Falco. I find him to be criminally underrated.

 

[ToTs]

I'd enjoy seeing one for Marth, I'd love to know if that dair cancel applies to every character.

It does not apply to everyone.

 

[Swaggy-G]

I'd enjoy seeing one for Marth, I'd love to know if that dair cancel applies to every character.

Every aerial can be lag canceled, but only those with meaty hitlag benefit from it.

 

[Sammy-jack]

I'm glad there are people willing to explain all of these combos for characters. It really helps me know what I can get into, if I fight them, or can do, if I want to play as them.

I wanna fight Izaw one day

 

[Hark17ball]

Fantastic video. Really in depth. Yay for Samus next! Cant wait!

 

[The21stSmasher]

Those combos! Nice video, man. Definitely making me wanna play Falco again.
