I didnt watch the whole thing cuz my cpu is being dumb today.
This isnt to put you down but to make you better.

Your good Your Mobility is WAY better than mine but my Offense is WAY better than yours. I wanted to cry beacause you had SO many oppurtunities to finish that Marth off but you Jumped back or triple WD away.

Also even though your Speedy you are predictable. Not enough mindgames. the Marth was reading you like a book.

Dont be so hesitant and practice close combat Shine combos.

You Also Opted to STAY on the defense...A defensive Falco is only as good a a Dead one

And Remember Speed is nothing without offense

I'll be straightforward, but this is only my opinion.

Not enough SHL
Too much fullumping
Not enough SHFFL's to Shine
Not enough Dair, too much Nair
Too much pointless wavedashing
Too much Smashing.
Not tricky enough.
No shield pressure.
No grabs.

Stop spamming roll.

Go read a Falco guide, watch some vids, and take the basics from those. Just learn how to constantly apply pressure, and be sure to get all of your basics solidly down before you decide to move on to more complicated stuff like LHDL and the like.

Right now, just build a solid foundation for yourself to build off of in the future.

the dog,the dog he's at it again!
Thanks for the feed back.

Anyways, now that I watch it again I did wavedash away too many times when I could have finished him, and I'll try to be less predictable =D.

By the way, the reason I full jump alot is that my brother is used to my shffling and can counter them(down b)alot of the time, so I though it would be good to change things a bit.

Better counter to his countering:

Empty SH -> Grab. There you go.

On to the video:
1:06- Lightshield edgeguard, pleeease?
1:11- u/n/b-air would've been a KO for sure. Someone said not enough dair, but in that case, too much xD
1:15- He countered and you... jabbed? dsmash or something... not jab.
1:34- Once again, lightshield would've killed him/ set him up for standup->bthrow
1:50- WTF? No offense, but, really, what were you thinking?
2:57- Sucks.
2:55ish - He countered, you...utilted right to his counter. Just wait. It has like a half second lag at the end where it doesn't counter, and you get a free hit. AKA time is better spent charging a smash or something.
3:00- He stands there, (obviously wanting the fsmash) perfect chance to SHL the crap out of him, not to mess around >.>;
4:26- I'm going to assume you were trying something strange. So, two options: 1) Practice whatever it was until that doesn't happen or 2)Don't do it again.
4:46- You were THIS close to getting stage spiked. Should've rolled.

Not trying to seem critical, you did some nice things in there. But that's ^^ what I saw wrong. Not that I'm a pro or anything xD

Where did all the lasers go? :(
But, really, SHL more. If he's on the other side of the satge just continually spam it at least until he start an approach. Oh, and a dash into a RSHL, if you hold the control stick away during the start of your jump, will send you back about your triple wavedash length.
