You have quite a bit to work on. Read the Falco guide and watch pro videos (DaShizWiz, Forward, Lambchops, etc.) to get an idea of what to use in what situation.

Always SHL. Try to get a bit faster with them and do retreating lasers. When approaching, always follow your lasers with one of the following: grab (I saw you do this a few times), dair->shine (learn to pillar. this is essential! don't not learn how to b/c it takes some time to get down), nair->shine. That's all you need to know how to do in order to approach. You can also do SHL->f-smash if you know it will hit because of the awesome knockback

I'll comment more after I get back from work. Now that I've bumped this, more ppl should help you.

I think I was the OP of that thread.... ****in mod flame war.

Ok, first match. Shuffle more. I know you can do it, because you shffled two bairs when he was on the ledge, but USE it. That was the major thing lacking, I think. Use lasers to approach, but a shffled dair works wonders and sets up for a shine dair shine dair etc. combo. SPAM THOSE LASERS. For now, just get used to making them FAST. Use Y to sh, if you don't already, since it's closer to b. Learn later when NOT to use those lasers, but for now, use them all the time to learn when you SHOULD use them. Do approaching lasers, stationary lasers, and lasers from the ledge especially. Speaking of which, change that up. You did a lot of the same things over and over again on the ledge...do ledgehopped attacks and stuffs. Oh, look at picking up a counter character, since I have never really like the Doc/mario-Falco matchup. Someone very different from Falco too, so that you change your playing style radically and really mess up the opponent. Your Falco looks like it can do a lot of the AT's, but work on actually using them.

Thanks ^^


Puck basically finished what I was going to say. Work on shine->dair combos, but learn to make them fluid and how to finish them too. Like I said, just watch videos. For example, you may want to do dair->shine->dair->u-tilt->dair/bair, etc.

Shine can be DId, so the combo won't last forever (excluding fast-fallers, you can waveshine those beezyz), so you can shine->bair them to knock them pretty far and get some good damage, then edge-guard.

If you think they're going to tech your dair left or right, f-smash them accordingly, or you can d-smash if they don't tech and possibly kill them.

You should probably learn to waveshine, but if you don't want to use Falco against fast-fallers then I don't think it's necessary (correct me if I'm wrong). I'm really lazy and need to work on waveshining myself so I can **** Fox.

I hope that helped a bit.

I agree with puckgood. Shuffling is a consistently good way to cancel their moves. You have a generally good tactic, but you need to get a bit faster for greater results. Also, you often don't space with easy techs, which you missed. practise by using Link's bombs on himself in training for better reaction. go in temple to practise wall techs too. Your Falco is o.k, but you need to learn to move around like you did, but add attacks in between.

Uh, what? No offense, but I think this is just going to confuse the OP. I think it's good that you're trying to help, but your advice is rather nebulous and unhelpful.

SHFFLing is a good way to approach, not cancel his/her moves.

Practicing techs with Link isn't going to help his Falco because they have different falling speeds.

Why practice wall-techs on a stage you're never going to play on (in a tournament)? Practicing wall-techs against a friend on Corneria or Pokemon Stadium would be much more beneficial, IMO.

Get faster and more fluid (Really huge deal.)
Wavelanding is really useful and really abuse stages with platforms. Also dont be afraid to shine because if you always jc it and be fairly safe.
