    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    That's what I'm trying to say. The Falco metagame is behind because we don't know what's what off of a throw. Look at Druggedfox's guide for sheik's throws: he explains what is guaranteed (fair) and what isn't (upsmash). I think if Falco's want to level up, they should research this topic...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    I realize that often times falco can upthrow -> aerial or shine, as well as the utilities of the other throws. My question, however, asked if any of these followups are guaranteed. If anyone believes the followups (like upthrow -> shine) to be guaranteed, could they link the data/proof of it?

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Falco's throw game seems to me unclear and not well understood. Does bthrow guarantee followups at any percent? is upthrow to aerial ever guaranteed? Is dthrow -> fsmash/upsmash legitimate on puff? If anyone has a link to any posts on the exact percent and frame data and such, it would be much...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    How do you guys respond in the Falco ditto when there's a sort of "laser stalemate" in which both falcos can put out a laser, thus forcing both falcos to deal with the laser? Is the optimal thing to do just lasering toward each other until other options come into play or is there another route...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Is there an optimal way for Falco/heavies to DI Fox's uair? I've read KK's guide and all but I've also heard and noticed myself that if floaties SDI up and mash jump they get out of uair easier. There've been times when I've SDI'd down and escaped but I'm not sure if its legitimate or if the Fox...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    I haven't perused the falco discussion thread in some time so idk if video critiques are still ok to post here, but I'll do it anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2_rKghXl8A Little nitpicking is appreciated, but what I'm interested in is the gestalt, and just overall fundamental things...

    Falco's worst matchup?

    Why is Zelda not in this discussion? She did decent enough against Falkeezy in Melee even though she was trash. Now that she's, what, top 5?, shouldn't she at least be considered? I'm a bit illiterate in PM but Zelda, if the gist of her characteristics were kept the same, is harder than most of...

    G&W, underrated or bad?

    In the hands of an adept, a good high tier defense will beat G&W. He must commit to everything he does, countered by a faster or fortressier character, i.e. every high tier. There are things you can legitimately pull off, but a player who knows how to abuse weaknesses can easily outmaneuver Mr. G
