Dear smashers,


I have a question about falco

I cant seem to combo dair into shine and i do use short hop and l canceling maybe i also need to fastfall?
in training mode at 10% or less i cant get consecutive hits around 20% it says 2 consecutive hits
If anyone could help me with this i appreciate it.

Thanks in advance :)

You should be fast-falling.

Also, are you dairing as soon as you can? Because if so, try doing it later (ie. closer to landing).

you have to fastfall but also < 10% if you're trying to dair shine a falco they can crouch cancel shine you before your shine comes out so that might be why. shrug. to counter that just do the dair as late as possible.

(you can't crouch cancel meteors but you can spikes? what a weird game. unless you can't cc spikes either? then i'm just wrong lol)

I Have noticed there are 2 type of charachter weights after a shine falco,fox,capt falco which doesnt skyrocket like link and marth.​
My question is how do you shine dair combo charachters like link and marth the other weight class is just shine wavedash short hop dair fast fall dair,But these high flying charachters are so annoying to combo on Thx for reading hoping someone can help​

Depends on how they DI, but generally what I'd do is shine, jump + DJ quickly, fastfall dair, and then utilt cuz Marth/Link usually fall slow enough that you land before they do. You might be able to shine if they're low to the ground, but use utilt when it looks like you won't hit with a shine after the dair.

Utilt is a godly combo move
