When I uair with falcon, I normally do the second jump (unintended).

Any tips on not doing that?

Also, I think Mango should team up with S2J or SS in a big tourny. It would be too much.

mango did ask me to team at apex, but me and oscar are the MANLY SONS

also, teaming with mango is not the funnest thing in the world, he honestly does all the work and i'm definitely more of a *****/ support role

Tryndamere used to be my favorite char design of all time because he was both very good and very bad and his ultimate is refusing to die. Never got around to playing him really

nowadays though he is quite the douche, and playing him for the first time in 2 games I had no fun

reverse up-b out of shield has more horizontal range than forwards up-b out of shield

i never use up-b as an offensive move outside of situational edgeguarding moments or when I really want to pull out yet another gimmick of mine, usually vs opponents who shield too much

I think he means as an OOS option. I see Jeapie do it against Sheik.

i know what he meant... i just don't like it and therefore don't really care that doing it backwards has more horizontal distance

i will sometimes once in a blue moon just run up to a samus at 170% and just up-b them point blank if they really refuse to die

I figured it would work in that spot and it did

theorycrafting up-b there's a lot of applicable spots to use it but its almost exactly the same spots where you can just grab

or you can up-b them 3 times in a row to piss them off, ganon style

But with Falcon I'm sure you can Up-B a blocked Utilt from Fox/Falco or does the hitbox not go far enough? I mean assuming the utilt hit your shield pretty far.

Up-b has a larger range than grab. That's why it's useful against spaced Sheik tilts once you get her past a percent that she can punish it from.

Also, ****ing Ganon's up-b's range is gay.

wow with megaupload gone, i now am one of very few users that owns a rare version of I Killed Mufasa 2.
And the starting price is $10 USD!!! BUY A HISTORICAL LEGEND OF THE FALCON SAGA TODAY!!! :troll:

but srsly...i can't believe the feds just shut down megaupload like that.....the internet was not pleased as we can see from the widespread anon hacking.

i'm just sad that i will never be able to see that original IKM2 with the Final Countdown song in it ever again.

Due to shield stun I think they can catch u with another up tilt before up b comes out

Well I meant you can do it with Ganon before anything else comes out, I was just wondering if Falcon can do it too? So does that mean Up-B doesn't go far enough or has different start-up time?

tru, but only in most extreme spacing circumstances, a lot of the times I feel an aerial can come out quick enough after a f-tilt

The downside to doing a n-air out of shield though is that they definitely can crouch it to shield, but this in itself is good because falcons can punish shieks once they go into shield mode often

furthermore, most shieks aren't thinking about crouching after a f-tilt, good ones definitely do though but i find they still slip a lot

serious question for you falcon mainers out there.

I find myself banning FD more often then FoD the last couple of tourneys.
Maybe its because I cant go without platforms.
Or maybe you find yourself doing this as well?
Or banning an entire other stage?, which will be weird in my opinion,

FoD isn't too bad vs Jiggs/Falco/Marth imo, so i usually ban BF/FD/YS respectively for these matchups instead

vs IC's i could see myself banning FD as well.

(in dittos it's only respectful of both players to ban FD & fod imo as those stages suck)

Everyone always used to tell me FD is Falcon's best stage.
They are all dirty liars. Chaingrabbed and techchased by everyone, no way to get away from lasers, even less recovery options. It's crap.

Still hate FoD way more though.

I love FD vs Fox / Marth / and depending on the peach style, Peach!

Peach chain grabbing is gay as ****. I ban FD against IC and some Peachs (See: MacD).

So much more to this but I'm too lazy to post.
