So technically is it safe to say that Ally is the best Captain Falcon player right now?

BTW I would like to say thanks to all of you for your efforts for making that video. You guys are some sick Captain Falcon players....
Ally may not have the "best" Falcon, but he is the best player that uses him, so in turn he is the most successful Falcon.

When it comes to tournament representation, yes.

Ally is definantly the highest rated Falcon around. I'm sure there's probably someone out there who can play better, but still. If we're going by tournament ratings, Ally's the best.

I'm currently an active Falcon ^_^ I participated in MLG and plan to participate in more tournaments and main only falcon :D
Well I hope you get far and learn a lot from being in MLG.
I think I'll get back on the tournament scene as well.
I think I'll be a great contribution to the Texas Smash Scene...

The one real issue I have with playing against other people is having patience...because it's hard to balance out how I should attack or defend/camp/wait.

Choose your spots wisely and don't always try something flashy if your trying to gimp your opponent or go for like a meteor smash...your end up gimping yourself and falling off the stage......trust me, ask olimar...lol

my issues was the opposite, i'm finally starting to follow up with more combos when i know they are going to work. I use to be really patient and it cost me a match at mlg because they time me out. So from there I learn not to be scare from trying combos or be aggressive with fake outs. I use to be a defensive falcon but I learn i have to use both offensive and defensive if i want to win big tournaments. So the best method is to adapt and switch around both styles. Remember falcon speed can annoying other players. I got some one annoyed in a match because they couldn't hit me so he lost the match. And use a lot of your grab releases and remember if you grab release fox in the edge is a stock.

Falcon can Shield-grab?
I always dropped it then grabbed; I thought his range was pitiful XD

His dash -> shield puts him within most character's comfort zones, and if they try to pressure you away, you can usually shield grab to punish them.
