Why does every Falcon insist on ledge-slipping->knee/dair? (ledge-hop onto stage, waveland quickly + double jump -> FF aerial)

Is it really that useful?

Turazrok you will need to get used to repetitive practice with your controller, it's the only way to become consistent

Does anyone use Uair out of sheild?

I've been using it against Fox lately and it's crazy! He gets grounded from it, and then I just destroy him. I think it's worth perfecting for an easy tech chase set up.

Nope, samus ***** Falcon. She does cc dsmash and then falcon gets edgeguarded. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE.
qft

also she can upB at any point in time for easy damage

samus is like the 2nd worst character though so it's not as bad as vs roy or vs pichu

So scar

I was asking a girl out and started stuttering and talking all awkward

then I thought "What would scar do?"
and then I was a smooth ladykiller

but seriously "be like scar" is a good mentality to take to life

she said yes BTW

Since that is your 666th post, I say this is proof that it is a bad idea. Evil itself is trying to make Falcons lose.
Sometimes a bad idea can prove to in fact be a very good idea in certain situations. For instance, Falcon kick > Marths with perfect spacing.

Also Falcon punch, that's always a bad idea regardless of the outcome. Doesn't stop it from being sexy as hell though.

tubes i'm going to ignore that whole post because it borderline implies that falcon kick is a bad idea in general

falcon kick *****

uair OoS is fine but relying on it is stupid otherwise you trap yourself in your shield too much and put too much emphasis on waiting for foxes to full jump nair you, and if you're too slow you're just going to get hit with a late nair which as we all know is going to cost you

also uair grab is never going to combo ever, you're just going to have to hope that you're playing a mid-level or worse spacie who will sit there in shield and let you grab him, if you're not then prepare to get spotdodge shined or just plain ol naired, so i'd say go for uair run up wait knee, but some players don't even spotdodge anymore they just roll, in which case you're ****ed all the way around and uair OoS blows just like it did before vanz came in and said it was good

Uair oos could be used to stop peaches' from doing fair grab on shield
I know it would piss me off if I'm about to pressure falcon's shield and then BOOM he's doing falcon things to you
I think it's just a good way to turn momentum v marth or someone floaty, or to get out of falco's shield pressure, if you're good at timing it

Uair grab doesn't work, especially oos
I think I'm gonna start maining falcon, the peach boards suck and jfox doesn't like me because I like peaches' fsmash
