Someone once told me that Fox had other moves vs Peach. I'm still in disbelief.

Oh wait. There is also dthrow techchase regrabs to dthrow techchase upsmash.

If all Peaches punished as hard as you, I would probably play like other Foxes. :p

Lasercamping vs Peach = too boring.

Getting deathcombo'd every time I miss an attack = FUN AND EXCITING!

Pasi from Austria:

Also Remens(Netherland) skill and potential might be little underrated/unknown overseas.

Edit:

And Hack from Sweden, though he disses and trashes my marth and style so I don't like him anymore :embarrass:

Edit2:

Plus IVP from sweden, though he needs more experience from big tourneys so he won't choke, and after that he will ****, trust me, that guy is a beast.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say with that. SS has lost to quite a few lesser Marth players iirc, I was just bringing that up because outliers being used to demonstrate skill/skill in a matchup is funny.

Haha, I just didn't know what you meant. Didn't mean to imply you were trying to hate on someone.

Regarding this situation specifically... its not really an excuse. It's a reason for losing. It doesn't imply that, even if he did know that matchup, he would have won. It only says that he couldn't compete because he didn't know the matchup, rather than his player skill so far outshadowed by SS that he would have been ROFLstomped either way.

I would go on about this, but its off topic lol.

*goes on a 5 year hiatus*

If by "learn" you mean "be forced to submit to heavy sarcasm while looking for the occasional gem of knowledge", then yes. Yes they will.

i don't understand why i am listed here, just managed to beat better people than me on their offdays. on a normal day in a regional i get routinely ***** and get close to last place

those videos u listed are sorta old although me beating shroomed is **** and hilarious especially since he moneymatched with 0 dollars on him. he's better than me though but better player doesn't always win

me vs axe wasn't recorded, pretty sloppy play from both sides, although i did really good match 3 vs his falco. i think i let axe's pika on 100% of the time

if you want a good gauge of how axe was playing, watch macd vs axe

dgdtj matches that were recorded is either me getting pooped on by zhu or maybe if somebody recorded me vs hugs.

i think jb, aka dvcrecroom has me vs lucky which is a great set although my edgeguard deficiency costs me (again)


me and oscar **** though

larry, the best brawl falco, is extremely underrated in melee. completely unique falco style. he's also really rusty but he's coming back to melee tournaments :)

@S2J

dehf is one of my favorite falcos of all time. i love his style, especially last year when it looked like he was playing Brawl with Melee technical skill, before he started to get back into the groove of things.

Wobbles said:
Fun story: in relatively recent history I've beaten Zhu (3 sets in a row), Lucky, JMan (mm), Mango (hungover lol), MacD (mm), Connor (mm and tourney), Vanz (mm), Shiz, and Darkrain (three tournaments in a row no wobbling in any of them). My tournament record against Axe (where I play ICs) has been in my favor about 4 sets to 1. It really frustrates me that people just don't know any of this and completely forget about me in all kinds of discussion, not to mention also ranking those players that I beat above me as well.

If it weren't for the IC boards I'd swear nobody even remembers who the hell I am.
I find it necessary to post this for the Wobbles entry.

My favorite Falco, and I'd really like to see more footage of him at Melee. Such a cool, simple, fun and smart way of playing.

EDIT: Sion from Canada. He's quite underrated imo.

like s2j said, DEHF is (or was I guess) probably one of the most unrecognized players. Nice to hear he's getting back into it
