This was a pretty fun set for me. Falco isn't Eggz main if you don't know him, and uhh.. Falco is my main.. So enjoy and do whatever you want? The fourth match is messed up so it wont be on here, but I won it on Rainbow Cruise. This was a $5 MM best out of 5 set.

video 1: Some pretty good combos in there. But I can already see that you dont properly space yourself. You know all the moves but you tend to just go for them without thinking of where you'll end up. Also the last kill was kinda anticlimactic. I think you could have won if you had 1. Sweetspotted (which I know would have been hard to do from your angle. It would have been better to FireBird at a different angle) and then 2. Teched.

video 2: It looks like you need a bit of practice on Platform stages. Or at least on Battlefield. You stayed on the bottom and dint abuse falcos platform game which would have given you a large advantage. And you also need to be more sensitive of distance and spacing. You missed alot of attacks just because you went for an attack that had a poor chance of hitting. EXAMPLES - :10, 1:30, (After 1:30 a bunch of attacks are randomly thrown out until 1:52) 2:05

video 3: Again at :37 you could have teched that hit and survived longer. Nice combo towards the middle. Nice jabs too. MUCH BETTER. a 3 stock, thats impressive. You really brought it together here. You abused the stage as well.

video 4: I used to try to double shine too. Its not a very good thing to do, I found out the hard way. Its a tough habit to break but stop trying to double shine for the flashy effect unless they just died. :59 once again, FireBird lower for a sweetspot and tech the hit.

My main advice for you is to fully master the technical stuff. You dash attack too much, dont l-cancel ever move etc. If you can get those things down your falco will be alot better. Good matches JEM. keep it up :)

FoD was probably the worst match of my performance, so understandable. I tried FSmash cause it was at an angle where if I SHFFL'd a spike I think I would have gotten hit and interrupted, but not close enough for DSmash. But, understandable.

you both had pretty good falco's... but jem... i noticed in the first vid that when eggz was doing his firebird back to the stage, you forward smashed a couple of times... you either wanna shs him or down a him... that's more effective than forward a... b/c as you saw... he hit you instead of you hitting him...

I, for one, was pretty impressed with your tech skills...

You do need to work on sweet spotting your recoveries and you could have teched in a couple of places where you didn't, but all in all, you have a very nice Falco.

Eggz also pulled some crazy stuff... Very nice vids...

Ok, so to critique...
- Sweet spotting your recoveries is obvious.
- I was unimpressed with your edge guarding. That's been mentioned by a few other people already.
- Very nice shine combos throughout.
- And I really agree with Infinite about the double shines... They're flashy and cool, but I don't find them to be very practical... Props for actually comboing out of one though.

Thanks for the comments.
Yeah, FoD is embarassing for me to watch. But throughout I did try Fsmash a few times, not sure why, only worked once or so. Usually I spike, but I dont know, maybe Eggz was a little too intimdating for me :)

at least you admit the truth... but nobody should intimidate you unless your playing against dashizwiz, bombsoldier, forward... they should intimidate you...

as i went back and watched your videos again. i noticed that everytime you got knocked down, you rolled forwards... you wanna pay attention to if the person is coming to attack you as you are getting back up, b/c they can knock you back with just a neutral a... and your back on the ground again... unless you l-cancel. so i suggest that you stop rolling as much b/c you can seriously get punished... and another note... it's good that you can double shine or whatever, but it's not necessary for every shine that you do... *well not every* but it was like every other shine you did was a double shine... that's good for basically breaking someone's shield...
