Falcon vs. a smash happy Roy

[Proud_Smash_N00b]

what do u think will give Falcon an edge over a smash happy Roy? I tried Nairing but he Fsmashes, Dairing but he Down+B's and tried recovering but uses Fsmash. So far all i can think of is chaingrab/tech punish and dair->knee. What else do you think will help vs Roy

Well, raptor boost to knee works wonders, but don't spam it because raptor boost has like.. no priority..

 

[Pye]

Yeah, Roy has the same weakness as Marth to attacks that cover ground quickly, which your overB does marvelously. If he just fsmashes as you get near him, run towards him, then when you get inside his fsmash range, use sideB. Because the animation of your sideB pulls you back before going forward, you'll dodge the fsmash and pop him up nicely for *attack X*.

It dosn't really matter what you do from there, right? No matter what you hit him with, it'll end in a Knee anyway XD

If you can't get to him, this is where mindgames come in handy. Run up to him, and just as he's about to fmash you, wavedash back, then he's vulnerable for a few frames. That way you can easily pull off a knee, or grab him into a combo.

Trick him into using F-smash or counter, then combo and kill him. Rinse and repeat.

run and jump at him and just before you get in range of his attack do a double jump and fast fall D air it. he will miss you and then you will punish him

This sounds about right. Dash dance until he Fsmashes, then grab him and proceed to combo his brains out.

Oh My God, Run, Crouch Cancel And Smash Him In The Gonads.

This should be a walk in the park. Just play smart by dash dance camping until you see an opening, i.e. bait him to Fsmash if he's so Fsmash happy.

 

[Keige]

Do some empty short hops to get him to counter, then up throw to knee if he has enough damage to make that easy to do.
Or wavedash away from fsmashes. Basically just dodge an attack and punish him for missing.

^ This.

Mindgame him into fsmashing and punish him while he lags. It's that simple.
