Re: The Great Falco Lombardi Fairy

I have no idea why people like Sheik. She has too many downfalls. Falco and Sheik both fall fast, but Falco is heavier. Both have good range, speed and priority with their moves, but Falco is stronger. They both have good recovery, but both Falco's 2nd and third jumps are as good if not better than Sheik's 3rd. Also Falco has THREE spikes and Sheik has NONE. So in everyway except for speed Falco is better.
So Falco= Very, very good character
and Sheik= Fast-falling, weak, and light character with not so good recovery
are you joking? please tell me you are. I wasn't going to post in this topic but as of now school is in session and pimp is your teacher.
First off they're both great characters so you can't go wrong whoever you pick, and personally their two of my best.
Now i jsut had to speak up, after you delievered that whack @s5 post.
First of all you said falco and sheik both fall fast? true they both fall faster than average, but falco falls noticeably faster than sheik screwing him on boards like jungle japes. Your perception of falco's weight is merely the effect of him falling faster.
Second you said they both have good recovery, this is so not true- Sheik has one of the best recoveries in the game, falco has one of the worst. Honestly what are you smoking? Falco's firebird and phantasm both have pretty crappy range, and are suspect to edge guarding like the majority of characters. Wheareas Sheik has the vanish which she is invincible during and if close enough is guaranteed a sweet spot ledge grab. Actually Scamp i think it was, was theorizing on one of the reasons why Sheik is so good(and why Reciph took first at TG3), and part of the reason
was her excellent recovery and the guaranteed ledge grab(she can't be caped) from vanish. I don't even understand how you could think falco compares to Sheik in terms of recovery- not only is his recovery worse, but made more pronounced by the fact that he falls so dern fast.
Wow falco has three spikes? holy! he must be the god of SSBM! wtf you give two false reasons to start your argument, then end w/ well falco has 3 spikes so he's better in every way? Wow someone needs to take you to debate school. And to top it off you end w/ this??
So Falco= Very, very good character and Sheik= Fast-falling, weak, and light character with not so good recovery
I almost feel like letting you into the MBR just to learn you a thing or two. Your logic astounds me.
Falco= good,
Sheik= fast falling- wrong falco falls faster,
weak- talk to anyone at TG3 and ask them how weak that f.Air is,
and light character with not so good recovery, striiike 3 you're outa here. jigglypuff is a light character, pichu is a light character, g&W is a light character- Sheik is low middle, as for recovery- like i said earlier you
must be joking.
Sheik may in fact just be the best in the game. There's more help me w/ Sheik topics than any other. The winner of TG3 was none other than Reciph who just happened to use Sheik. Unlike fox and falco, sheik can't be counter staged, or counter picked character wise. Meanwhile fox and falco's fall speed leaves them at a disadvantage on some maps, and we all know how peach eats up the space animals taking advantage of their fast fall speed and short range. Whereas Sheik is at home on any map, she can't be counter staged, and so far noone has proven to be any kind of effective Sheik counter. If anything it's almost disturbing how effective she is, considering the simplisticness of her game. But i guess the best solutions are always the most basic.
