To TLOR:

Did you know that Falco has 4 aerials??? You did SHL to shffl dairs then shine EVERYTIME.
Seriously you need to make your approaches a lot different. Variety is key.
There were like 5 times where you did a shffl dair but missed by an inch because **** WDbackwards.
If you had done a shffl nair instead you would've hit him since the nair is much longer.
So try shffl nairs to approach. Also WD->grabs. You didn't do too many of those and instead opped for the dair. Dairs are good, but not godly.

**** did much better. Instead of doing the same approach again and again (AKA instead of spamming dairs over and over again) he mixed it up with some DD->grabs, 5 times more bairs than TLOR did, more nairs, etc.

You seem to have fallen in love with ledgehop dair. you do it as you primary means of recovery to the stage, dont forget there are loads of other options, use ledgehop double laser more (except when they are close),
and dont forget about:
ledgehop phantasm onto the stage
ledgehop waveland on platforms on yoshis and battle field
and get creative,
fall, regrab,
ledgehop, regrab
throw him off dont just do like th same thing over and over.

oh and shl to dair isnt falco's only approach. try shl to grab, and use more nairs,

and tighten up your combos. a lot of combos the fox was able to escape at like 30% when really those combos should be 60,70%, or death combos.

Were you playing on a LCD TV like a flat screen? your SH Lasers seemed alittle high and i know that on lcd tvs theres a bit of a lag. just curious. if not, try and get your lasers lower

well in the first match of the one labeled "5" the fox couldn't get back from the ledge when he kept trying to illusion to get back up.. learn to waveland from the ledge, or at least mix it up a bit lol

I would say, as long as the opponent doesn't punish you for not mixing it up....spam all you want
