Edit: Ew...messed up title. I wanna change that.

Hello all you Falcon players!

I just picked up this game about a week ago. I love it. I love Falcon. He's awesome.


Now...I've been *playing* SSBM for about..a month, until I just bought it a week ago.


What I'm wondering is, what are some general set-ups for me to combo, and how do I do a nair > uair > knee? I mean..I don't know how to juggle with him.


So if you guys could help me out, send me a PM, whatever, that would be great.

I have a livestream, and I'm willing to broadcast..as long as people watch me .


Thanks for reading.

Hi, glad you like the game ^^.
Basically falcon can combo just about everyone to death.
Downthrow to Knee is GUARUANTEED on characters like Peach and Marth at high percentages.
I usually start my combo's from throws. Downthrows on floatys, Upthrows on fastfallers.
The most important thing for successfully comboing with falcon is to read and tech chase.
Try to predict where they are going to roll, stomp em, land a few up airs or just knee them directly.
Try mastering SHFFL's since that is the most important technique in the game.
After you've done that, practice shffling up air using the C-stick.
You will soon be a muscular ****** machine without limits

Good luck!

Actually, don't watch this too much, I picked up falcon around the time of the release and kept on wondering why I couldn't do upair to knee combos, turns out my peers just all didn't have horrible DI, so don't put combo videos as your primary source of what works, find out for yourself, or just watch matches instead of combo videos for inspiration.
Not hating on Scar btw, he'd **** me any day.

Go 0-death level 1 Marths until you can do it in your sleep, then come back and ask for advice.

If you're asking "how do I do X combo with Falcon" the answer is probably just make sure you're hitting your L cancels / fast fall and not missing the run. Otherwise, basically any move combos to any move on Marth, so once you can hit combos on level 1 Marth you can start actually applying them to actual matches.

General setups...

Nair -> knee
Knee -> knee
Uair -> knee
Bair -> knee
Dair -> knee
Uthrow -> knee
Dthrow -> knee
Side b -> knee

Nair *****
Weak knee -> Uair ***** offstage
Knee -> knee works both with landing in between and in midair on floaties

Knee a lot vs wavedash characters

Just go kill that level 1 Marth all day son

yes, do this^^

hah once you can hit all your L-cancels this should be cake

also, practice your multi nair combos on characters like peach, ganon, and marth so you can get perfect nairs. That way you won't get shield grabbed and you can do crazy things out of your nair
