Quick Tips?

[Kieso]

Hey, I was just looking to see if anyone could tell me some tops and techs for C. Falcon. Ive watched a couple of videos of people playing as him, but I cant really follow whats going on.

Or if you guys have some videos that you could suggest that explain techniques and such

-keep in mind, I bought a Wii just for Brawl, so I never really played Melee too much.-

Much appriciated,

always remember the knee. its the best move that captain falcon has

Funny thing is, thats the only thing I remember, lol. I use it mainly now whenever I play, just so I can get a hang of it until I can use it in some 'combos' and such.

I dont want to rack up the damage then use a lame-knee finish XP

jabs are an underrated damage builder. U-tilt and dash attack are nice for pushing people off stage.

On recovering opponents, your special attacks start to become alot more useful. People are alot more predictable while recovering so you can actually nail Falcon Punch on people who are off-stage, or even use it to counter their ledge attacks. And using Falcon kick to send yourself off-stage and raptor boost to spike on your way back is pretty cool too.

expanding on what Tenki was saying, dashing attack usually is a nice setup for up tilt

down tilt should be kept in mind because it sets opponents up for Dair's or knee's

If your enemies aren't that smart... You can pull off an aerial 180 FALCAN PAWNCHHH! I usually get them to connect 70% of the time.

Falcon Kick = Your Best Friend.

About Dair, whens a good time to use it? When I use it, I always expect it to be instant, but theres like 1/3 sec delay, so it throws me off.

higher percents. It's also an ok edgeguard since it sends them out instead of down most of the time now.

Remember to always autocancel the Dair. It is pretty good against opponents that spam the dash attack
