You know how almost every Falco player likes to spam SHL? Your opponents will probably be expecting that every time. I say why don't we do, ShortHop, then Falco Phantasm. Try it, it will catch your opponent off guard and knock them in the air for you to do combo's. I've tried it. It worked on my friend. I don't know. Does this sound stupid to you? :confused: :psycho:

If they think you're going to SHL, they're going to shield - so phantasming would only mindgame yourself, since they're shielding in anticipation of a laser, so you just put yourself in lag nearer to them for punishing.

SHL > all. Space it, camp it, approach with it. Only phantasm to recover, unless you use it for edge-cancelling purposes as well.

SH Phantasm is an unfortunate side effect of SHL... And that's all SH Phantasm will ever be...
