Point taken.
But at that point you shouldn't offstage falcon punch unless you want to make your opponent wet their pants.
well usually my friends know i like to gimp so sometimes i use the falcon punch when thei´re offstage but for 2 reasons: 1 if it lands then great you just took a stock with a falcon punch, 2 if your friends was far away from the stage when it´s about to recover he sees you triying to falcon punch him then they air dodge...falling to their doom......................

UNLESS IT´S A META KNIGHT!!

then why did you say biglord had a point? a fast falled falcon punch is like raptoor boosting offstage on porpouse while your opponent is at the other side, on stage
Because I thought he was talking about non competitive falcon free for all 4 player falcon punch only play or when you have two stocks left and your opponent is on his/her last stock and you just have to connect with that last falcon punch.

Again, I just didnt want to go there.

I'm farrr too late to reply to this, but you can Raptor Grab the ledge out of any ledge-hopping option besides Air-dodge, Falcon Kick, and Falcon Punch. Doesn't seem worth it, but its notable to ledge-hop D-air and raptor grab the ledge after trying it seems legit. Ledge-hop U-air and B-air don't need the Raptor Grab since they're on-end frames end before catching the ledge. Raptor Grabbing for Ledge-hop F-airs N-airs and D-airs are needed to re-grab ledge without falling through using Falcon Dive to recover ledge.


Edit: It's obvious that ganon can do the same with the flame choke grabbing ledge-hopping for his D-air, U-air, and B-air however N-air might still work but seems fickle and F-air is too long so falling through is definite.
Edit: Even snake can do the same with his cypher grabbing with all of his aerials from ledge-hops.
