This is interesting, it seems to suggest that Puff drifting into Falco here is actually the stronger of the two options in terms of what it lets Falco do. Is this just because shielding generally is a weak position to be in? A CC on the nair would be a way better defensive position to work from...

Hey PP, first of all bless you for single handedly keeping the falco boards alive and taking the time to answer literally every question you get asked. We don't deserve you. I have a few questions about one very specific interaction in this match: https://youtu.be/OhJuyaAjr5U?t=192 At the 3:12...

Hey PP, So this is kind of a complex question that might be hard to answer, but I'll do my best to communicate it. I feel like my game against the actually good players is very much based around the things that work against people below a certain level on the tier list. For example, if I'm...

There's 634 pages in just this thread worth of reading material for you to go out and implement. There is 20xx and unclepunch, but PPMD got to where he is before either existed, and I practiced my tech skill by using a combination of the single player glitch, a second controller, and a bowser...

This is actually one of my favorite matchups in the game, so excuse me while I word vomit at you a bunch of things to keep in mind about it. Pt. 1 -- Win Conditions You pointed out, quite well, that Falco needs to win neutral many times whereas Peach can get by with stray hits or trades. You...

I won't do timestamps on twitch vods, but I've got some general strategies and some specifics. A couple of thoughts on a quick watch: 1. You do some really clean and technical stuff, but also get punished going for it unnecessarily. For example, on the YS game you try to go for a shine...

A spammy Peach is one of the best tools for your growth as a Falco player, I firmly believe that. When played well, Peach needs Falco to make mistakes in order to win; all of her moves outright lose to at least one or two different tools in Falco's kit, and so learning how to beat spammy Peach...

Hey. We definitely want Ult representation, I was looking to reach out to Vayseth this week to get a shortlist of names to add into the conversation. We really, really want to involve PG Stats, but they have a better relationship with the 4/Ult TOs than they do with us, so it's a necessity for...

Greetings to the broader Smash community. I am Roboticphish, here again to bring you news of the Harassment Task Force's completed product and the culmination of several months worth of research and hard work. The system we created and outlined below was created with the blessings of "The 5"...

Hey @Dr Peepee let's talk about some ten-thousand foot theory for a minute. I've been playing almost five years now, and there are parts of my game that have gotten very well-defined. Most notably, I've developed a pretty good bait game and quite a bit of speed in the micro mixup game. But...

Hey Falco players. You may know me as a player, you may not; if you've played me before you will know that I operate on a pretty intense, balls-out gameplan that, when it works and I'm playing well, is a one-way ticket to cool-guy-ville, and when it doesn't work just gets me annihilated. But...

Hello to all, I am here again to provide you an update on the workings and progress of the Harassment Task Force. The last update was to let the community know that we had created a long-form code of conduct, including a system of bans and suspensions meted out by an impartial panel for all of...

Hello all, I'm here again to give a brief update on what the members of the Harassment Task Force have been up to in the last month. If you'll recall, the panel was put together to address harassment and bullying, both on our social media pages and at our events, and determine a system by which...

@tauKhan @Bones0 Thanks guys, problem solved. Sadly it seems far too unreliable to create a gameplan on. Oh well. At least now I know what causes it.

Given this, can you help me to explain how Mango was able to get the spike stun animation despite him hitting the top of Sheik's head as she was in the landing lag from her up-air?
