i say the plumbers...doc and mario are more annoying than luigi but i can seem to get around any of the 3. oh and i need tips for fighting bums DK and dj nintendo and warriorknights bowsers... lol ****ing mid and low tiers have so many combos on my poor falco.....
are you serious or do you actually believe that? every character can be played well. you honestly think there is no ganon that can beat you? take one look at the video in the first page, rob$ loses to a good ganon. this is the whole reason gamer made this thread so we can compile advice against every character. even though falco is top tier there is much to learn about every matchup. i know at least 2 ganons that will probably wipe the floor with you and beat my falco half the time. this is why i know so much about this matchup because ive played and lost good ganons and know the tricks of their game/what not to do. seriously though are you better than rob$? didnt think so.You're over-complicating ganon. . . SHL >>>>>>> Ganon. He is big, he is slow, and he has no answer to you shooting his big evil *** up. Just keep him off balance, and evenutally you'll see openings to combo, at which point, he's like a bigger, slower sheik, which makes comboing easy as pie. Ganon has insane combos on you if he lands a dair, avoid it like the plague, but this shouldn't be too hard if you're using your lasers wisely and paying attention to platforms. Seriously, this matchup is a slam dunk, and one you should ALWAYS win, just play smart.
Aparently I hit a nerve. Yes, I have played good ganons. And yes, I have lost to them. However, after playing and losing to them, I too know the matchup and the fact remains that SHL > Ganon. I don't know what's offensive about this statement, Ganon's will admit it too. And about Rob$, sure, he's probably better than me, but that's besides the point. Joe Bushman's probably just as good as him and YS is the one stage that can't be controlled with SHL, so as far as this matchup's concerned, that's the one stage where you really have to be careful. I lost a match to Renth (probably the best Ganon in PA) because we didn't have Dave's Stupid Rule, so he got to play and beat me twice on YS. BFD, I still took him out in the Finals because Falco is a rediculous Ganon counter and you are seriously ignorant if you think otherwise. I'm not ranked or even considered good in PA, and he's top 10, so yea, I've got a good reason for saying what I said. I stand by my statement and think you're absolutely insane for taking so much offense to me simplifying this matchup for you.are you serious or do you actually believe that? every character can be played well. you honestly think there is no ganon that can beat you? take one look at the video in the first page, rob$ loses to a good ganon. this is the whole reason gamer made this thread so we can compile advice against every character. even though falco is top tier there is much to learn about every matchup. i know at least 2 ganons that will probably wipe the floor with you and beat my falco half the time. this is why i know so much about this matchup because ive played and lost good ganons and know the tricks of their game/what not to do. seriously though are you better than rob$? didnt think so.
Brookman knows what's up.In fact, just use lasers 100% of the time, don't bother with any other moves. Same goes for every other character. Just shoot lasers.
wrong wrong wrong-ICs have a terrible up-down arial game. Your dair and utilt can dominate their up-down game, so make them play from the sides where you lasers give you the edge.
lol. i completely agree that i overreacted. i dont know why but i felt that your quote was really silly. and brookman is joking too im sure. lasers dont solve all but they sure help.Aparently I hit a nerve.

QFTW:
Brookman knows what's up.
yea yea, I was tired when I posted that. My bad dude, I know all too well about the uair, because of a certain IC player from Pittsburgh. . . But anyway, I was more talking about how they can't F with you from above, and due to this limitation, they're forced to try to go through lasers rather than above them, which changes the game dynamic as oposed to say, a Fox, Ganon, or Captain Falcon, who can just go up and challenge your utilt with their dair. uair is potentially a beating, but the sideways hitbox of the dair is still better than that of IC uair, so there is a spacing that works out for you, it's just tough to get down unless you play with IC's every day .wrong wrong wrong
IC u-air is one of the few moves in the game that will straight-up beat falco's dair
important-> if the IC player shields your shine, if you FJ out of your shine, you WILL eat a uair to the face, often followed by another uair or a bair... you must either WD or SH out
but IC down game is in fact terrible... it's almost always advisable to CC the dair and get a free smash/shine/whatever you want (dsmash can be especially painful for nana, killing her at stupid low percentages)
1 more thing... don't be afraid to grab, given that you dthrow immediately
hi alan and wes, happy climber-slaying
And to Invertigo. . . sure, a player who's way better than you will always kick your teeth in, regardless of how terrible the matchups is. Just watch Chu play Pichu sometime for proof. I've seen plenty of tourny vids of d@mn respectable players getting beaten by Chu's Pichu, when their character should never lose the matchup. That doesn't mean that Sheik or Marth or whoever Chu's been wrecking lately, shouldn't win vs. Pichu, just that he's that F'in' good. So, that's why I'm saying you should never lose the matchup. The fact is, Ganon's hate playing smart Falco's who use the laser well and love playing over-aggressive Falco's who get close enough for Ganon to space a fair or dair on them. So, play smart, ***** that laser and make the Ganon's life a veritable hell on earth. Don't let them start combos and just be aware of the platform space above you (which is the whole stage on YS). And yes, I stand by the statement that you should always win a match against a ganon. Random games happen where you'll get outspaced, get frustrated, and play bad, but if you keep a level head, they should never be able to pull out a best of 3, especially with Dave's Stupid Rule.lol. i completely agree that i overreacted. i dont know why but i felt that your quote was really silly. and brookman is joking too im sure. lasers dont solve all but they sure help.
but about that ignorant thing, didnt i mention in my previous post that falco is top tier and has advantages to most characters? i already established that so no need to repeat. that said there are still things to learn against every character, hence this entire thread was born. point is lower tiers can beat you if the player is better and this thread is to teach the tricks against all the characters.
and wasnt your original statement that you should always win against a ganon? you really stand by that? especially considering the YS case you just made against yourself. saying things like just laser is saying that this thread is useless. even if you disagree, remember that someone REQUESTED a ganon guide be made. sure youll probably win against most ganons. but were collecting guides for every matchup remember?
oh yeah and i apologize for my tone. that was uncalled for my bad. ill keep it civil
Yes, every IC move with the A button has a disjointed hitbox. Come to think of it, maybe they all do. Either way, the hammers are disjointed.is the IC hammer disjointed hitbox?
Yup, that's fine by me. I will be fairly busy over the next few days, but eh, that's never stopped me from talking about Smash before, so feel free to fire IMs my way whenever I'm not idle (idle = working on graphics or robotics or playing smash).I dont know about the IC's hammer being disjointed, and I've never fought a Pichu before lol. so uh if you want to work on a pichu one be my guest lol. or you and wesley can do it toegether to avoid arguing ftw. just giving you guys a hard time. I wish i could put a poll on here so people could vote on which characters to do next and stuff but i'm not a mod or premium... so lets see.
invertigo took care of dr. mario
mario match-up is pretty similar isn't it? dunno never fought too many plumbers only doc.
i dont' know much about pichu
what about a mr. g&w one since so many people are using him agaisnt falco's now-a-days? lol
or i can work on a bowser one, or link? which one's do you all think?
edit: wesley answered the question abou the IC's hammer lol so nvm now i do know
eidt2: wesley can i add you on AIM to talk to you about these match-ups and stuff when i need help?
according to a certain website( ill post the link when i find it again) he's currently the 5th best bowser in the world.who or what is DJ nintendo? :/
well bowser is easy to fight after u know the gayness that comes with the big guy. lol i guess ill right a mini guide...oooh. ive never played a good bowser or gw before im curious to see what there is
