it depends on who or what your playing, (character) against.
you could just try grabbing, down throw, forward B then jump to Knee, that works almost all the time.

 

[darkshy]

Thanks I'll try the combo out tommoro. Anything else? Technical wise? It's more mindgames I can't seem to get down.

 

[Lazy_muffin]

well, i don't main falcon, so i cant really give great advise on him, but you could try running forward then D.I. and after that forward B to uppercut on to the air, with a quick knee, you can finish them

ok uhh i stopped watching after like a minute it was bad sorry,,ok umm u do alot of unnecesary movement,you jump disgustingly high for no reason,u through out alot of moves with very little accuracy,and falcon isnt all about jumping in the air u need to get grabs which lead to teach chasing or combos depends on percent.

 

[Psychoace]

Yeah your jumping to high made you miss a lot of dairs or even that bair. Grabs especially on yoshi should really help you out.

hey there being hard on you it wasn't that bad you just need to tech chase to grabs and stomps and the easyest way to tech chase is to tap forward after a down throw then if they do a get up attack you can shield grab or if they roll you are in perfect posistion to catch them either way
and stomps are a huge part of falcons game they rack up damamge and they lkead into combos and i know what i am talking abot cause i play with some really good people as in like.... chillin and ECE and bobz so just ask if you need any help

practise SHFFL Nairs and Dairs, learn from pro's like darkrain, isai, silent spectre, and machdash, look them upp on youtube, also L cancle everything plus falcon needs a lot of dash dancing and wavedash plus stop jumping high and randomly off the edge! lol

I am not a Falcon main either but there are a few things that I noticed that I think could help you out. A few were already touched on but I am just re-emphasizing them. You seem to waste your double jump quite a bit for no real productive reason, that can leave you very vulnerable in the air and gives you very few options to safely get to the ground. You also seemed to spam the knee a little to much, the knee is a very powerful and fast attack but a shffl'd nair or uair is usually a better option, they have more range and can fairly easily set up combos to end with a nair. The other big thing that seemed to happen commonly was you didn't grab enough, falcon's grab's can be very effective especially you can tech chase. So those are my suggestions hope they can help you out and good luck.

EDIT: This was also said as well but watching videos of pros and noticing their tendencies is one of the most effective ways in advancing your game so take advantage of other pro's videos.

try to do well space nairs and some setups. always tech punish. and remember it doesnt matter if you lose because ur already cooler then your opponet for picking captain falcon

uhhh lol 1-10 ur probably 5.during that whole match i didnt see you actually use ur dashdance other than showing off or whatever you were doing.first, switch up your gameplay once in awhile.2nd you need to shffl arials before you go for a knee.it makes it a lot easier to land a kneeafter a nair or uair than just going for a knee out of nowhere.not only did you full jump a lot, but you also double jumped...basically more short hops,shield grabs,shffls,etc.good luck
