Sup guys,

I've been playing melee since I was a kid but just started practicing to become competitive the past couple months.

I've already watched a bunch of matches from the most notable falcon players, but which matches in particular would you guys recommend watching if a new player wants to do a more in-depth analysis to see how Falcon should be played? Also, what kind of things should I pay attention to in general when watching matches?

Thanks!

Just watch a lot of sets by Wizzrobe. He may not be the coolest falcon to watch, but he plays optimally and he's great to learn from.

Very instructional and enjoyable sets. Try to analyze their decisions in neutral, as that kind of information is usually more valuable than, say, looking at punish game.

Thanks man, I'll watch these over the weekend and make some notes on their neutral game.

Yeah I was a big fan of n0ne when I started cause of how hype his matches were. But now I appreciate wiz more for his sound fundamentals.

Wizzrobe is pretty admirable, even M2k was hard after Wizz destroyed him, minute 11:28
