PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

who's that chick in forward's fb profile pic

I'm so crazy, I put ICG to shame.

At least you communicate your lunacy in a coherent manner.

ICG's posts are painful and frequently impossible to decipher.

 

[MacD]

kirbykaze, what are you doing here

MacD just float over the ledge and bair. they'll jump into it every time.
So if I get a grab on marth, what throw should I use? I was playing friendies yesterday and I kept getting grabs on marth. I just fthrew and went back to lazer camping. It added damage but I didn't get kills off my grabs. whenever I upthrew I usually missed the follow up and bthrow didn't help much.

 

[JPOBS]

vs marth upthrow-> dair or bair usually works but its more of a pseudo combo.

i dont really know what the variations are or if DI matters or any of that, but the common notion vs marth is if you cant toss him off, throw him up then follow up real quick

 

[MacD]

i had 2 questions to ask pp, then i had questions to ask about falco that maybe the falco players could tell me

... that's my answer and i'm sticking too it!!!

... *runs*

 

[KirbyKaze]

kirbykaze, what are you doing here

I am omnipresent on the Melee boards.

 

[MacD]

so i've noticed, though you did miss this post in vanz's thread

i lost to iori's mewtwo and zelda at genesis

i learned don't dsmash zelda's shield

EDIT: so i went to this MacDonalds the other day, saw my friend David there, he plays melee... the end

 

[The Irish Mafia]

Kirbykaze, you bidoof.

[Rubyiris]

Peach is a peace of ****.

Sometime either last month or December, I can't exactly recall, but he posted something very insightful, and in correct grammar.

I was shocked, to say the least.

 

[KirbyKaze]

Falco can't even fly.

I hope you're trolling me. I don't want to live in a world where ICG's posts have merit.

 

[Rubyiris]

Yeah, but he's a ****ing g, so he doesn't need to. Peach is just a dumb ****-guzzling ****.

I hope you're trolling me. I don't want to live in a world where ICG's posts have merit.

I'm telling the truth.

 

[Filthee]

PP, whats your strat for beating a shine happy fox? thanks in advance

 

[Kason Birdman]

good ****. mad useful.
marth stuff was pretty good. iv never been good with that matchup

 

[`DNS`]

Yeah I hate peach too.. That **** dsmash is too good
Without it she'd be low tier

 

[The Irish Mafia]

yeah, her whole lagless float game is ****ing useless without that Dsmash, right?


right guys?

 

[MacD]

lolololol

i should take mm's and not use dsmash and then win and be like you are wrong

with out it she is still dam good, FC arials, stupidly good priority

 

[Dr Peepee]

PP, whats your strat for beating a shine happy fox? thanks in advance

When does the Fox shine?

If it's when you're lasering, then just treat him like he's powershielding and shoot low ones and then hop over them to punish the Fox in stun.

If it's when he's aerial'ing and then keeping himself safe from being grabbed with shines, then you want to Dair him right after he lands so you'll catch him right as he shines or right after he does. Just don't do this every time or you will be punished.
Usually this one isn't much of a problem just because of the fact that you can still laser the Fox when he lands because the laser(I'd advise you shoot a laser to hit a Fox when they land....) probably won't connect with the Fox when he's shining.

 

[`DNS`]

ya peach without dsmash just cc everything

Really though, usually in peach vs anything the first hit of a stock is 30% from a dsmash then techchase or something gay

 

[Rubyiris]

dsmash isnt even annoying. peaches god **** fair is what i hate.

GLORIOUS.

(learn to SHFFL dair/nair/bair to a shine first probably, rinse and repeat, mix up those 3. not really sure your tech skill level) I know your asking PP but yeah, juz helpins!

Short
Hop
Fast
Fall
L-cancel

Incase you were wondering

 

[null55]

lol i played my friend's Peach the other day, and every time i would think he would d-smash, i would begin to charge my d-smash immediately. he would d-smash usually when i thought he would, but he wouldn't hit me as i stood there on my tip toes and then punished him. it happened like 3 times in a row and he was just like "what the ****..."

 

[Scidadle]

Uhh make sure you can waveshine

mad important

 

[null55]

RoC ftw.

First of all, thanks. =)

When I first got serious with Falco, I worked on getting consistent SHLs and RSHLs. I'd mix that in with SHFFL practice(and maybe mix in a little combo stuff if I was doing well enough with my SHFFLs). You'll also want to get your waveshines down pretty early too, since they help with combos a lot of the time.


@CJ: I actually read this the other day, but Falco's feet have invincibility when they're charging for Dsmash or something, so it protects you against Peach's Dsmash. Pretty ****.

 

[Turazrok]

I still can't shl perfectly lol. I always get the fake lasers.

please tell me by other day you mean like years ago, this is such old news buddy

also, once i did a high percent get up attack from the ledge and falco started to charge dsmash and my get up attack missed then we tried it again like as a test and my get up attack hit this time, it was werid

 

[Sixonesix]

Is there a clear advantage to autocanceling SH bairs instead of SHFFLing?

 

[MacD]

it's hellla annoying!!!! idk how to get around it

 

[Dr Peepee]

You generally keep the hitbox out longer for AC Bairs. They're better at different things, so you have to play around with which is better for a given situation.

If you want to Bair shine a shield, then you should SHFFL. If you want to space Bairs, then both AC and SHFFL Bairs can be effective. It's that sort of thing.

@MacD: I'm still learning SHUT UP. =p

 

[MacD]

well when you come to the WC we can teach you all sorts of things like this

you'll come back a new man/bird

 

[Dr Peepee]

Okay, deal.

 

[strawhats]

yo Kev. you should falco vs. puff against mango in order to learn the matchup some more when you go to Cali. Wish I could donate to that good player fund but im broke.

Haha everyone is gonna be calling me Kevin soon. ****.

Oh uhh, Mango really likes to Falco ditto. I'll see if I can get the puff, but I think he hates that matchup.

Thanks for your support bro. =)

 

[MacD]

if you tell mango it's to beat hbox, he'll gladly try and help lol

 

[Dr Peepee]

That's a good idea haha. I'll try that.

 

[LLDL]

autocancel bairs look kool on tape :>
