Jona, I'd like to personally thank you for providing genuine comedy in the form of SWF posts for almost a year now. I salute you.

i just dont think theres a character better then jiggs right now besides maybe fox or marth

i mean with good spacing its over, you need like no tech skill and you have a **** recovery and the one hit wonder rest

theres a big possibility for error with fox, and he kinda easy to gimp sorta

marth idk you need good spacing too but its not as good as jiggs floating and amazing air game

sheik is ok, but theres no one **** with her

falcon is a beast i mean hes whack but in the right hands its just amazing

falco i think is another one that requires good tech skill and theres a good possibility for error and he can be gimped pretty easy too

idk

It seems reasonable where Jona is coming from, I guess he's just emphasizing that the top tiers still have some glaring weaknesses, while Jiggs cover hers well.

yeah falcon is so bad he doesn't have autocombos on fastfallers like cargo uthrow uair uair uair uair uair uair uair uair bair or suicide monkeydrops

but no on a serious note, DK is an awful character but so is every single low tier, and when they see a character do something good (which falcon can occasionally do) they say that the character is better than theirs, which is true because low tiers are bad tournament characters

that said falcon is NOT included in my list of GOOD tournament characters simply because of his limitations in TOP level competitive play, at high levels falcon can compete well and at above-average levels he is VERY good, but at the top level of competitive play in smash CF is a very bad tournament character

his good matchups vs other tournament-viable characters include no one, he DEBATABLY beats peach and marth but seasoned pros who know those matches well will tell you they are stage-dependent and ultimately even

falcon loses DECIDEDLY to fox, falco, sheik, jigglypuff, and only wins vs marth and peach if the player is better than the opponent, not like how sheik players can beat half the cast even if the other guy is better

falcon does **** low tiers but how often do you run into a low tier in tourney

relative to every other character in the game, falcon is great. relative to tournament-viable characters he is right in the middle. relative to tournament-winning characters, he is BAD.

not that i'm johnning, because i love him to death and will never stop playing him, but there's such a thing as reality
amazing post.

because ec falcons are the only ones that matter
so is that why an EC falcon has like never been debated or discussed to be the greatest falcon, currently or of all time, before scar, who himself says he isn't?

I want to expect better of you, but I know not to

Scar and Hax should both be talked of in the same breath as Darkrain at this point. And frankly, all 3 would completely assrape Isai's Falcon. No disrespect to him, he was an inspiration in the early days, but the game has evolved a lot since he played and there should be no question that the modern Falcons are better with CF than Isai.
