Zelda cgs falco in melee with uthrow..... either way cgs are easily escapable especially in pm. What I do in melee is di slightly behind to where they can't tell if im in front or behind them and if they hesitate for a split second I shine them out of the cg. If they don't cg like m2k perfect I always shine out of it.
And for whoever asked im in greensboro nc
The zelda vs falco thing tho... if your getting grabbed by zelda when you have a gun and a shine, you deserve 70% to be honest. Either way you can still get cged by zelda as falco in melee iirc.
When's the next time you'll be in MD/VA? I wanna see you play Bandit so I can make $$$ sidebetting against you
Nah but seriously, Zelda's grab range is quite a bit better than it was in Melee (to make up for it being so slow, it's a good change), plus there are now Brawl pivot grabs. This makes it easier both to get the initial grab and to continue the CG. I do all the things you mentioned which is why I could escape it before 70 sometimes, but if Zelda does it right, you WILL eat 70% and you WILL get lightning kicked at the end.
But (and listen up kids because this is important),
that is perfectly fine. Falco has the tools to make him one of the hardest to grab characters in the game, and on any stage other than FD the matchup really isn't that bad at all.
Edit: I found the matches that sparked this conversation if anyone is interested.
