Does anyone feel bad when they chain grab to a spike?

No, but all my friends call me *****.. i have learned to disregard it though hahahah. I think they should be smart enough to get out of it.
There is no way to get out of it, that's why it's called a ****ing Chain Grab. If you could escape, it'd be called the "throw your opponent and hope you can get another" grab.

^Exactly.
If anything it's Falco's revenge for getting CG'd like a ***** in Melee. It's his right to CG.

Ice Climbers (Partner action)
Luigi (Nair)
Marth (Up B)
Olimar (Jump + AFA)
ROB (Jump; Fair)
Zero Suit Samus (Down B)"

I don't know why you should. It's not like it's impossible to avoid. Besides, if you're fighting Falco, it's up to you to keep that from happening, so it's essentially the victim's fault to a degree.

I don't feel bad at all. Smash DI and teching the stage removes a lot of its threat, and if I do it, they'll learn not to get grabbed. If they are dying/getting grabbed relentlessly, they need to get better.

Learn2TopTier, or in any case, don't play Boozer vs Falco. Problem solved!

I didn't say give up his main. Just learn another character. I don't play Falco exclusively, because he has gay matchups.

Tip 3: Don't get hit!

PROTIP: Smash DI toward the stage and tech it right as you get spiked. You'll never die to a Falco grab again.

Then how is he more cheap!?!?!?!?
i think he meant MK is not cheap and is really hard to use, unlike falco, who he apparently thinks is so cheap and easy to learn. well either way, he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about lol.

I'm not ********. I know that Meta Knight is disgustingly cheap who can simply rely on spamming his high priority attacks to win matches. Falco is not as cheap by far and is not that easy to learn since you actually need to tactfully apply his AT's into your play style in order to do well.

I was being totally sarcastic. Sorry, I should have been a lot more obvious with it.

Yeah, I was surprised they didn't catch that while reading it.

Sorry, it's just that we've ben getting some not-so-bright people around here lately cause ZOMG FALCO'S THIRD ON THE NEW TIER LIST! And sarcasm will often times go completely unnoticed on the internet.

Need I remind everyone that no matter how much information and strategies there are, this is still just a game, and that moves can be abused over and over again. Hell, if we took the months of practice and research getting this good and discovering a move, we have every right to abuse it with no remorse!

-MK specialist fighting for the legitimacy of the infinite dimensional cloak in tourneys, but I think it works here, too. :p
