Killing Kirby

[rifall]

All Kirbys Must Die.

Reasons why they must die...
1. Darn Suicide moves
2. Sucking Kirbycide gimp
3. They're obnoxious copy abillity
4. I hate them.

Who are we playing=Falco

Our Advantages!!!
Superior range
Lazer Lazer Lazer
Falco can Meteor
Dtilt kills at about 80% on certain fields.

Our Disadvantages
Kirby's sucking has a nice range
Kirby's recovery is far superior
Hard to meteor at low percentages.

General Tips
Yes, Kirby is small, and can simply duck to avoid the lazer (so can Jigglypuff), but get the SHL (short hop lazer) timing perfect and they cannot approach. Just camp with the lazer.

Don't try to meteor them if you knocked them too far. They will simply float above you. Let them, especially if they like to spam the downB. They either have to morph out of it right before landing, or right after landing. However, if you stay below them, you can grab to combo or just smash them away right when they come out of the rock. If they come out right before landing, don't worry. Their lag is too big, just Bair them out of a shine. Or just Bair if they're out of a high percentage.

Where to take a Kirby.
Very small stages. Why? Kirby's range is very very superior to yours. So if at a certain distance away you cannot get back, and have no choice but to die at the bottom, Kirby can get back at that point. So, putting the wall at that point will even the playing ground. Why do you think Kirby's stages have very wide walls?

Low ceiling is also recommended. You are heavier than Kirby, so killing from the top is easier for you. Plus, Kirby does not have too good of an upward finisher.

I'm sorry, but this thread seems a little pointless, considering that Falco is one of Kirby's worst nightmares in terms of match-ups and very few people play a really good Kirby.

Falco's DAir isn't a meteor, it's a spike because it can't be cancelled with a jump until hitstun wears off. And Falco has a lot more advantagse than just lasers, range, and DTilt; he's got the shine, aerials, priority, power, speed, combo ability (of which Kirby has almost none to my knowledge)... the only way a Kirby's going to reliably KO a Falco is if the Falco is gimped or makes a stupid mistake. I think the match-up is about 80-20 Falco or something like that.

I don't know if you hate Kirbys because they give you trouble or if you don't like pink marshmallows, but either way I've never had trouble against Kirbys. Probably because either my friends all suck with him or I don't see him used a lot, tournaments or wherever.

You're Falco. Pick a move and space/time it well. You at least won't get *****.

This is really more just for fun. There was trouble for me against Kirby when I first started playing. So, this is more a discussion to see how many fun ways we can kill kirby.
