Quick Falco Tips.

Great tips on how to play Falco, he's one of my mains so I need all the help I can get to play this completely different version of him as efficiently as possible . Thank you! :)
I thought this was a good general summary of Falco. Important to note, full-hop fair is a great spacing move and also has good knockback, while short hop u-air should be used because it's lag-less and baits approaches. Also, I had no idea that down throw to bair was a combo, I usually use dash-attack/reflector.
This is a pretty good "in a nutshell" guide to Falco.
All this stuff is the basics to using him properly.

I'd say learn some of the other tricks on the Falco board, he's got a few to give him an edge. I didn't know Shulk's counter can be stopped by the up-smash, pretty cool.
Falco is all about getting your opponent into that tight spot, or punishing your opponent when they get too greedy.

Learn how to SHFF bair, it give many options as a spacing tool, or just for inching in an approach.
