Falco is pretty broken.

This is an awesome thread. I guess since we seem to be void of moderators, the Falco forums are a good place to get away with shenanigans like this.

Oh, and yes, Falco is the ****.

If I had a dime for every time I heard someone proclaim that X character in Brawl was broken, I'd have enough money to buy out Don Shula's restaurant.

You main MK. Your opinion on "broken" means nothing. :p

And Falco's not broken. He's just **** good.

Seriously, I've seen at least three threads today saying "x is broken", can you noobs ever just admit you suck?

Normally it wouldn't annoy me, but the ignorance on these boards is so annoying. I hope to god it wasn't this bad before Brawl came out. Yes, Falco is a good character with some dirty tricks up his sleeve, but he is nowhere near broken.

eh, you'd think that. I think what's happening, imho tommy_g, is that the chaingrab helps Dedede players withstand entire tourneys better than G&W's can, they adapt to some tough matchup by going chaingrabby and skip over some patches where they weren't the better player. If that makes any sense.

By this i mean to say, i think G&W seems a lot more like a good character than DDD, but DDD can withstand whole tournaments better.

I hate Metaknight. Apparently, if he spams tornado, I don't know what to do. I can laser or use the reflector, but that is just a few % compared to the near 20% his **** can do to me each time. I have no problem when they don't spam, but goodness I feel lost when that tornado comes whoring out.

a nadoing metaknight is a scared metaknight. remember that. keep up on the projectiles as he whornadoes and you should eventually frustrate him to the point where he starts making mistakes.

Learn the footstool combo. From what I've seen, it works on metaknight to 70% from 0%. Having MK at 70% while you haven't really used your smash attacks is a very good thing.

I don't believe this, but here isn't where I'd like to discuss it, lol. This thread really should be closed. I need to go find a proper outlet for my metafrustrations.

There isn't much Falco can do when Meta is spamming whornado, you can try to laser or reflect him out of it, or hit him from above, both of which are unlikely, although I would say reflector is the easiest method.

Falco isn't broken. Not compared to Snake, Mk, ROB, and I daresay DDD/Marth.

If we don't unanimously know who the third person in the "Big 3" is, then should he (because girls can't fight) really be considered part of the Big 3? It should be the Big 2 and the Not-as-Big-but-Still-Very-Good 5 or 6 possibly 7.

But Falco's not broken at all. Gimp-able recovery. Average speed. Average smashes. Average tilts.

hello? there already are! SK92, Sethlon , and Chillindude829 consistently place high in tournies. SK92 and Sethlon cover the south, and Chillindude829 covers the east. not to mention in Japan Bombsoldier and Nyosuke look like they could challenge the U.S.

dude i know that, but seeing as i live in britain most ppl are noobish and i dont think there are gonna be many people who get really good as falco, up to bombsoldier and setholons standards.
