...and Link can easily shield-grab Falcon and proceed with a string of up-tilts followed by an up-smash. Let's not forget that Link's neutral-air beats all of Falcon's. Like with everything in this game--it's all situational. Link just happens to beat Falcon in the neutral and have more options...

They may have just as long FAF as Falcon but they all come out faster. Let's compare hitbox active frame data from Kurogane: Link: U Smash: 10 F Smash: 15 D Smash: 9 Falcon: U Smash: 22 F Smash: 19 D Smash: 19 Links Smashes come out faster than some of Falcon's tilts: Falcon: U Tilt: 17 F...

Link may not be the best character against Captain Falcon, but he's certainly a very good one. If you have good spacing and make good use of your projectiles, this should be a pretty easy matchup for Link. - Link can chain quite a few Up tilts into an Up Smash for 0-50ish damage if you catch...

What's everyone's opinion regarding the Marth matchup? I used to have a relatively easy time against Marth... but ever since the recent Marth buffs, I find myself losing a lot more frequently. Any other Falcon mains having issues with Marth ever since the patch?

As a Falcon main, this used to be an easy matchup for me. However, I've been having a lot of difficulty against Marth after the recent patch. I was wonder what the general matchup consensus is now after the Marth buffs? Do you guys still have the same issues against Falcon?

I'm a Falcon player that has played quite a few matches with a really effective Link. If you have good spacing and make good use of your projectiles, this should be a pretty easy matchup for Link. - Link can chain quite a few Up tilts into an Up Smash for 0-50ish damage if you catch Falcon...

I'm pretty sure she screams exactly like that in her games when you get hit with a stronger attack or die. I guess Smash just doesn't differentiate the on-hit screams based on damage.

Thanks for taking the time to watch the video and provide your input. I greatly appreciate it. I think you're completely right about my lack of follow-ups. I've mostly been practicing in For Glory so I can get better at reads--however I think it's definitely messing with my input timings when I...

I was wondering if someone wouldn't mind critiquing my Falcon. I got pretty demolished by the Link I normally play against in this video. I was having an off day, but I still find this a very difficult matchup. I also seem to have a hard time punishing his moves and can't figure out how to...

Anyone have any general tips for playing against :4link:? My friend's Link is very good about using his projectiles and spacing it so it's difficult for me to punish. He is also very good about using his nair which shuts-down a lot of my aerial game. I'm not exactly sure how to approach. I try...

The easiest way to perform the gatling combo is dashing, hitting down on the c-stick, and as soon as the attack is landed, hit up on the c-stick. You only need to use the dash>down C-stick>Analog Up and Z for the boost smash. Which is sliding with an up smash. Although technically, it does...

For those of you that changed your attack buttons to L or R, could this still be pulled off with the regular A button? Or does changing the attack button actually affect the sliding distance?

This guide was extremely informative. Thanks for the hardwork!

Sounds cool, a video to show if I'm doing it right would be nice though.

wait is pressing Z necessary at the end? I know I never press Z and I can still pull it off...
