I'm unsure of the %'s but doesn't falco have guaranteed follow ups on fox at lowish percents off Dthrow? like shine on di in or grab/dtilt on di out?

The short answer is yes. Mixing up your techs missing tech, either to getup attack or delay your getup are all options. The sheik can react to your options but mixing them up makes it harder. Additionally, you should be mixing up your di as well as your techs (di out tech roll in, di slightly...

Yea the kind of jump makes no difference, the jumpsquat doesn't change nor does the first frame you can airdodge.

oos grounded shine is done by inputting the shine on the first airborne frame of the jump, the same way a double shine is input. you leave the ground then return to it before you are able to act again (3 frames? idk check the double shine frame data sticky). In Regards to which is more optimal...

Its very important to be able to move through lasers in the falco ditto. Meaning its very important to be able to wavedash oos. PPMD talked about it in the smash practice pilot, I'm unsure if it still exists but i believe it was linked somewhere earlier in this thread.

@Bones0 In that situation, how do you feel about grabbing then fthrow to establish laser control, I've noticed that I occasionally have problems using unsafe options on shield and would like to better by grab game. Unfortunately outside of upthrow sffl nair on spacies I'm having difficulty...

First party controllers are only about $20 on amazon right now.

try dairing later, if you dair too early the time between the dair and the shine allows for the opponent to grab or use another oos option

PMDT needs to redline his hand and back, might be the still but that ish looks a bit wonky. That being said, that sword is baller as **** :disco:

wavedash oos is crucial for the falco ditto.

There's not really any reason to do more than two shines most of the time, imo. Successive shines will push the opponent out of range without them lightshielding or shield DIing away, meaning that if the opponent uses either of these options, you might have ****ed yourself trying to be fancy...

There isn't a ton of payoff to falco's lasers if you don't capitalize on them. They don't build percent as fast or as safely as fox's lasers do nor do they do a significant amount of damage to shield. While you won't necessarily get put into disadvantage because you were spamming lasers...

^ Past stuff like shine dj bair/dair I don't think that most players use tap jump for shine aerials. x/y would be far more consistent especially when pressuring shield or whatever.

cstick buffers the jump and will probably make your shine oos less consistent. Use whatever motion you would to doubleshine, the timing is the same.

straight right, same as how you would want to input a normal walljump, you can practice that on any maps with walls (peach's castle, stadium transformations etc. If it's not registering you are probably too far away from the wall, drifting towards the wall might help in that case...
