So I was playing niko_k a few days ago... he zero to death'd me basically (it wasn't a 0 to death combo, but i coudlnt' get a hit in)..

Just when I thought I was totally ****ed for that match, Dthrow->Dair->pivotgrab 3 times to 50%, grab him again. d throw, dash attack, dair... then he hit the ground from dair... i landed beside him, chased his get up roll and downsmashed the instant he was out of his roll, which killed him..

And the match ended up being 3:06 minutes... so I couldn't record... should have killed myself and recorded it...

Dair is really good.... Try using it more in a match, and following up with a dsmash or grab after they hit the ground then get-up-attack or roll

lol, all of falco's moves ****, (except for the fair, which is merely surprise sex)
Fair is good because you can fit a fair and a no frame laser into a full jump

This is actually a pretty cool trick for baiting people and it really often will lead into a grab or a dash attack or something

full hop fair as soon as you leave the ground, then fire a laser asap and it'll come out as a no frame laser

people always charge you when they see the fair expecting landing lag, but instead you land with no landing lag and a laser coming out to protect you which a lot of the time either stuns them long enough for a grab or makes them shield which leads into a grab

...SH F-Air has actually been useful against nasty Snakes. Horrible delay if you miss, but hell, I don't know of a Snake alive who expects it. They figure if you're in the air, near them and facing them, you have no way you can possibly hit them. Throw out the old F-Air, and you may just snag 5%.

dash attack > upsmash
d-throw > up tilt > pivot foward smash, or d-smash

not sure if these are unescapeable. help?
dash attack > upsmash at low percentages is inescapable (especially if DXL'd)

d-throw > up tilt is as far as you go that inescapable.

There are actually quite a few combos that are inescapable, though I can't remember all of them for the life of me. I posted a thread recently that has them.


On another note, Shuffle Dair to Dair is the Falco version of Knee to Shinespike. Anyone stating otherwise should be taken out back and shot.
