Hay man I'm picking up Falcon as a main and i really appreciate your vids. I just have one question. In the grand finals against player-1's Diddy at about 4:00 you were getting knocked off stage allot and every time you got hit you would Uair. is there a reason for that or you just wanted to?
In Brawl, and I think this game, using aerials would slow down some of your aerial momentum out of hits, which can help you go less far and recover easier, it feels like it's in smash 4 too, but I don't have any concrete data supporting it yet.

Videos from the GX championship in Georgia are up! It was a series of brackets with most of the same people, so I play a lot of the same people several times, the last 2 vids are from the final 3 person single-elimination bracket.
Been checking out the GX vods since November and your falcon is what gives me hope for this game. You've seemed to really figure out Neos' Rosa as of late. Thanks for being awesome

Thanks man! I'm trying my best to do things with Falcon.

If anyone's interested, I'm going to Kings of the South tomorrow and Sunday, which is a big Georgia tournament with 500$ in pot bonuses, OOS players attending, and it's being streamed here. http://www.twitch.tv/typohousegames
I'm entering Smash 4 Singles and Doubles, and PM Singles and Doubles, they're having Melee and Brawl there too.

I decided to hook up the old Colossus and capture a few recent replays.

I'll be uploading a few other vids - including one where we went to sudden death via simultaneous death in For Glory... in a Falcon ditto.

Once I have 10 posts, I'll be able to post a link lol

So I ended up winning smash 4 singles, pm singles, pm doubles, and melee doubles at Kings of the South, but sadly none of it ended up being streamed since the internet at the venue was terribad.
Regardless, I'm going to Olympus this saturday, which will be a pretty big regional for smash 4 and PM, I think at least 200 people (and ESAM) will be there which should make that pretty exciting.
It's going to be streamed here if anyone wants to watch. http://www.twitch.tv/newmetaentertainment

Hello Everyone!!

Been out of the Smash scene for years and have been getting back into it a bit with Smash 4!

I play Falcon secondary to my Shiek.

I would love some feedback on my Falcon:

Heres a few matches recently from a local tourny that I placed 3rd in!

Fatality, what is your timing on the falling up-air? Seeing your videos made me try out the falling up-air but I can't seem to get it right. Is it fast fall then up-air or up-air then fast fall?

Depends on your positioning relative to your opponent, and the height of your opponent's character, I'd just advise messing around with both a lot until you can consistently land it from varying heights and timings, since most opponents and the situations you encounter them in won't be static enough in general for you to land it the same way against everyone.

Hey guys!
I just came up with a CF combo based on this vid from MySmashCorner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guoksvQ_27o

Anyways this is my combo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17VOcJfR8BQ
I'm pretty sure the first 54% is guaranteed, but the knee probably isn't. Would be nice if someone who knows about hitstun and stuff could tell me. For now, I guess it is a decent setup.

E: Upair instead of knee looks a little more convinving to me but it just doesn't look as cool ;-;
If it does combo, this is an over 60% combo though so that's pretty nice

I use Captain Falcon as a secondary. How'd I do, guys?

http://youtu.be/fbJYpUaHzRw
Give a little more love to bair and be careful with those fsmashes. They worked for you in this match, but faster characters can just punish you like hell for using it.


This set. This Sonic.
I felt so powerless throughout the matches. I couldn't grab him, couldn't punish anything, couldn't get an upper hand during the neutral, couldn't recover decently, and I even ragequitted the first match at the second stock because I was used to a 2-stock ruleset lol. By the time he got the advantage in the second game, my mind had already been destroyed. Gotta work on mindset and play smarter, not harder. It'd be very useful to get a few tips for Sonic and my overall gameplay, though.

This MU seems to be very painful.

nice kill. When I saw you only had 10 seconds left I was wondering how you'd make a comeback.
Yeah, that 10-second zero to death felt nice!

Wow, maybe I should record more videos, just for myself really, I can see the mistakes I made much more clearly than in the heat of battle!

Second set of GF.

I ended up winning the tourney but pretty close with all my matches. I don't do any fancy stuff but criticism is welcome.

Hey there fellow Falcon mains, my name is Joey and I go by the tag LuLLo, you can call me whichever you like! I'm a pretty flashy Falcon main from The Netherlands and have been a Falcon enthousiast since the early days of Melee. Now that he's finally viable again I am eager to show my moves in tournies (only had 2 now, but much more to go!). My highest placing is 5th at the moment, but I'm training hard to at least make top 3 (kinda difficult to shoot for first place with Mr. R in your region...). I also hope to get some videos up when I get the chance!

I play Luigi as my second, and a bit of Samus, Wario and Ike (my old main). I'm a pretty laidback guy, so if you want some matchup experience or just hang out and play some manly ditto's, hit me up!

As for the OP, my basic info:

Name: Joey
