Alrighty then, Falco critique it is.
I'm doing this match:

0:23- hopping towards him is not a good idea when he has the advantage. He's going to keep pressuring you, most likely. SH back and laser maybe to see if he'll go too far in so you can Dair or shieldgrab or whatever.
0:25-0:27- work on laz0rs
0:32- tech, DI, and react. Things to work on there.
0:37- the roll back was kinda iffy imo, but you gotta work on your lasers bro. retreat them at least because GaW has great aerial speed, which is really hurting you right now.
0:40-shield over spotdodge because spotdodge won't dodge Bair and it shield also covers his key too. Be more patient instead of always focusing on getting that quick counterattack.
0:51- Fthrow doesn't really seem like a good choice here to me because GaW does have invincibility on his up-B anyway. I guess it's good for chip damage. Maybe work on your hugging tricks?
0:54- Fair is bad vs GaW imo.
0:56- You know that he's gonna either shield or run after all of that to regain a sense of control over the situation. Just phantasm onto the stage.
1:09- Why did you walk towards him and roll away when you could've grabbed??? At least attack at that point because he'll probably try to spotdodge or jump OOS or roll or something.
1:26- Walling with Bair? Not good when your opponent can PS (which is easy).
1:32- Laser Upsmash
1:37- Hyphen Smash
1:48- Downsmash or Upsmash
2:13- Jab follow-ups are not a good idea against most of the top tiers. They're either going to AD or use a high-priority move. Space an Ftilt at best or shield. *Correction* you could jab, but you'd have to condition your opponent to think you're going to shield or space.
2:29- You don't outprioritize that. Empty SHFF so you can bait that, then punish.
3:10- Don't you usually phantasm away from the edge to relieve pressure? Instan aerial phantasm or whatever they call it next time too btw.
3:16- Don't get greedy, and don't use Fair above the stage.
3:23- Was that supposed to bait an AD? He hasn't gotten punished for a Dair almost the entire match, so don't think he'd be afraid to be punished now.
3:28- Walk to Usmash was a really bad idea. You have to realize that your opponent is going to be expecting smashes at high percents, and ESPECIALLY when you both have one stock at high percents. Try walking to grab or just walk to react to whatever he does. Maybe charge a smash, but most opponents roll, so I dunno how effective that would be, since most high-level opponents would just shield, hence the grab idea. Ok basically just react to what they do since I didn't really say anything there lol.
