Smash Ace
Been searching around, but haven't found much useful information in the way of dealing with the manliest character in Melee... Didn't find anything using the search function, and the match up isn't listed in the Samus threads thread... Basically watching a few of the Samus VS C.Falcon vids in the video archive to see if I can find any new trixies to learn.
What I'm trying to do for most of the match is **** up his spacing so I can get some hits in. (S)WDing around, tossing out missiles and bombs when I'm in a safe enough position to do so, that kind of thing. I try to stay defensive.
I have a little trouble making it back to the stage with Falcon waiting around, too. Coming in high usually ends in tears, and my big bag of ledge tricks aren't always as effective as they are in other match ups.
I have little to no trouble edge-guarding Falcon once he's actually off the stage. Angled ftilts, smashes, and the magnificent utilt cover most of the bases. Sex kick and bair cover the remaining gaps.

What I'm looking for is a bit of advice on approaching and playing a bit more offensively (unless I should really spend the whole match playing defensively, in which case any further insight on how to do so would help just as much), and perhaps some safer ways to return to the stage.
What I'm NOT looking for is people telling me that the match up is impossible, and that I should pick a different character to play against Falcon. I understand it's a bit harder, but it's not impossible.
That said, thanks for reading this wall of text, and thanks in advance for any advice posted.
(If there's already a thread or existing resource for this, please point me in the right direction.)
