better edge guarding, falcon has gotten to the edge too many times to be trying to edge guarding.

lol sorry, i thought i was supposed to be critizing the falco.

anyways tech chasing is always good, and the combos needs to get better, btw i like the falcon paunches

 

[pwndj00n00b]

I usually can do shffl combos left and right, but they never get on camera. So I guess this means that I need to get them on there lol.

I like the music lol.

I think you need to speed up your game a bit: More fast-falling, more dashdancing, more empty shorthops.

Come hither, my son.

UThrow to Raptor Boost a spacey at 100%? UThrow to FSmash a spacey at 60%? You need to learn your throw percentages, son.
Techcahsing grabs is fine and all, but try to throw out a knee or stomp if you know they're not going to spotdodge after teching, as that Falco never did.
Also, edgehop-stalling against a Falco is a poor decision. Any agressive, or competent, Falco would have DAir'd you after the first two edgehops. Speaking of the Falco, tell him to edgeguard every once in a while for me.
I'm not sure how you're DD game is since this is a Falco, on FD no less, but get some in if you feel you need to.
Now make a new video, and Show Me Your Moves!

Thank you halfDemon. Thats the kind of help I've been looking for, because all I've been getting lately is the kind where people say I suck and shouldn't post. Like I said in the video description I have gotten better, so hopefully it will show next time we can record.

Clearly in reference to me. First of all, I never said you sucked. Secondly, those were ****ing combo videos, there's a reason every single scrub player in the world doesn't release a combo video, because they'd ****ing suck. Combo videos are for the amazing or the unique. You can post up as many scrub matches like everyone else as you want, that's fine, I'll watch them, and give an honest critique. So I'll get back to you on that last part. Because I'm going to have a lot to say.

Like halfdemon said...know those magic %'s that will get you KO's, especially vs spacies. If you know your percents, they won't live long. Some examples:
-65-70% you can dair to shffl'd knee
-40-50% you can side-b to shffl'd knee
-25% (give or take) you can side-b to grab or fsmash
-95-100% you can up throw to fsmash if they don't DI.

You should practice your tech chasing more. Try to see where opponent will tech/roll after a throw and meet him with a knee/stomp/grab when they get there. You have to act fast though, so an educated prediction is key. You can increase the odds of where you want your opponent to roll/DI with simple mindgames. Chain throw techchasing can be one way to get control of the fight.

Consult the greatest falcon thread ever, ever. It's got lots of basic things that will make you like 10x better.

Listen to TML, son. Listen and learn.

And I'm glad to help.
