Not even close. No guaranteed followups after jab 2, even grab, and his forward smash is not very quick.
D-throw to up smash at very low percents, around 10-30% depending on characters you can do down throw to running back air. That sets up for another grab right away if they don't attack or jump away. then after that, just go for up throw to up air. It's guaranteed to pretty high percents depending on DI and character if the laser hits, and even if not you can still get the up air/ back air mixup for a KO.
French custard where the top is "burnt" so it's crispy. I never had one, though, but I'd love to try one.
Fixed for better opinion
Don't knock it until you try it.
I'm sure his beak comes equipped with Falco-shaped drills that fair his food so he can consume it.
He needs a few tweaks and buffs and he will be golden. What you think he needs then?
Sounds about right. It's weird seeing all these new heads picking the bird up and what not posting in here. Brawl Falco boards were deadish as well from what I remember and smash 4 Falco boards is funny and weird at the same time in dat regard. We just need to put in the work and a Falco player has to poop on nerds mainly someone big so that people would look at him more. Also I try to get some footage of my Falco soon and post them up on here soon when the Mewtwo patch drops.Really, Dabuz? Really? Then again, we can count how many Falco players are out there with one and a half hands.
Edit: If you have time, I suggest reading @kyoskue's "The Difference Between A GOOD Player and A GREAT Player". As there are not a lot of (known) Falco players, we get to see different styles much more instead of cookie cutters who just D-throw to Dash Attack and expect that to work all the time. We've seen GimR use Uairs and perfect pivot Dtilts a lot, Pawclaw and Keitaro use Blaster a lot, Manny Manito uses short hops to feint a lot, Cyro incorporates wall jumps to his edgeguard game, berserker. prefers using D-throw to RAR Bair, Shaya advocates U-throw, the Japanese Falco players use different movement options more than most like pivot walking, perfect pivot to anything, etc., and even lesser known players do things like Bubba if I remember the tag correctly uses RAR Bairs a lot, one player uses Falco Phantasm a lot, another uses Down Smash a lot, some use Jab cancels a lot, and one player uses Nair to approach, cover options, or ledge spike, etc. It's these distinctions where we prefer or incorporate certain attacks, certain strategies, and have our own styles that makes us different and unique. For an example, GimR is aggressive while Manny Manito is more defensive. As for me, I love using Down Smash out of shield, I like firing off Blaster every once and a while, especially to mess with people, and I love Jab canceling to F-throw because it looks brutal even if it might not be a good idea.
So, even though we are few, we are Falco players and that's all that matters since we represent a community that people overlook or don't really know about.
Remove Falco's lasers pls.
That would actually be useful. One thing I never really understood is what happens to people when they're hit by the laser. It's like they receive hit stun and whatever momentum they had left, they get dragged down. That or people are just panicking since they lost a jump, didn't realize they lost it, and when they do, it's way too late.Using the source of great players, For Glory, I have discovered that Falco absolutely rekts Mario; either that or I'm a great Falco.
I believe it's a bit of both, since, as shown by the footage, he actually gets dragged down slightly, but what killed him was his air dodge. I doubt it was lag since the match wasn't really laggy, so I guess he just panicked predicting the b-air/d-air.
I didn't think it was possible to play mindgames with the CPU. :O Also Ffamran pls don't burn me at the stake, I know I've been procrastinating on the Falco moveset analysis but I'm trying to figure out how to organize thoughts we have on moves as a community so as to be user-friendly and it's tough. Help is appreciated!
I think ofof this game.
Dribbles the ball (jabs/tilts/etc), shoots for the goal (mentioned set up moves below), and then using space-jam level physics SLAM DUNKS (up air, back air, some cases fair) them into the net. It all has to do with his unbelievably high/fast jumps.
Those might be better asked here: http://smashboards.com/threads/falco-king-of-the-birds-game-play-discussion.367184/. This thread is supposed to be a place for Falco players to just hang out.
My bad, in the Wolf social thread we normally just chat about the game aswell. Thanks for the info though
This social is pretty much dead... In general, most of the discussion and activity for Falco is through matchup discussion and gameplay discussion. I hope that Star Fox Wii U makes this place more lively and have more varied discussion, especially if Falco has his own stats or something in Star Fox Wii U.My bad, in the Wolf social thread we normally just chat about the game aswell. Thanks for the info though
Lack of Falco content really. I can barely find anything on YouTube, yet every other character has it good. If Wolf comes out when Star Fox Wii U does I may have to switch. Although Falco might be more fun in the end. Even if some of the guys here aren't content creators, you could link some stuff to reddit. You have lots of good matchup threads here at least!

made Skillager pocket Sheik. 
Wow that's a lot of info, good to know the origins thanks. I'm pretty sure I won the mirror match so I'll take it as a complement.
