I was wondering if anyone had any advice or tips for getting back to the stage when fighting Marth. I can't seem to handle that fsmash. Thank you in advance.

Just Falcon Kick all the way down XD

But seriously, you can maybe toy with the Marth by using your UpB stage level and using your aerial DI to confuse him maybe into attacking too early or something.

Actually, although I don't play Falcon much I do know a few tricks. If you find it that tough try doing your Up B backwards. In other words, do it so Falcon's back facing the edge and he will automatically sweet spot as you DI towards the edge. That should help...

Approach from below and sweetspot the ledge. If this becomes too predictable he'll start using dtilt, so sometimes you'll have to do unconventional things like airdodging onto the ledge or stage, or just recovering from above.

If the Marth loves that F smash, bait it. Eventually, he'll get smart and just ftilt and dtilt. You have to be tricky and use all your tools. Fastfall, airdodge, up-b, ledgetech. Do whatever it takes to get back. Don't make it easy for him.

Granted, if a Marth is edgeguarding you, you're usually just dead.

if you can, just up b way high into the middle of the stage. he'll hit or grab you, but thats not as bad as being killed. if you're too low, you can try to tech or space horizontally, but those arent that reliable so good luck. going high is better than low because if you go really low you only have one direction to go, whereas using up b a little higher you can go all the way to the middle of the level, or pull back if they try to aerial you and you can grab the ledge. if you can tech really well though, go low. i cant, so i dont
