those are pretty much my favourite stages.

basically

PS: your laser game ***** but there's a bigger space to chaingrab you in the middle of against relevant characters, and its relatively small so your awful recovery is somewhat compensated for

FD: lasers **** but you get combod so hard by most characters that I usually avoid it. I really dont like this stage for falco.

BF: I really like this stage with falco but a lot of other people dont. the platforms make a lot of combos easy, and you can laser camp under a side platform pretty effectively.

DL: if you are a very campy player this is a great stage. you can run away and laser with more freedom than the smaller stages. If you're an aggressive player it's not great.

YS: shine combos are great and finishing a mid% combo with fsmash or shine bair sometimes kills whereas on most stages you often need a second opening.

FoD: awful stage. your lasers get ****ed, your combos sometimes get tricky with the platforms, not enough space to camp on, etc

vs marth: DL and then either BF or PS. PS is probably better. ban YS or FD.
sheik: i really dont know. i dont have much experience. i'd go YS for easy kills and PS for lasers.
fox: YS probably. FD unless he has great grab combos, in which case your second pick is up to you. DL is probably good.
Jiggs: everyone says YS, but I gotta say my vote goes to PS. it makes it so easy to **** up her approach with lasers and dtilt/utilt/usmash/shine all kill at gross percents. second pick YS.

dude FoD is a small stage with huge blastboxes that you can't always laser on. how the hell is that good for falco. he gets some nasty combos, but falco ALWAYS has nasty combos. it is not a good falco stage.

POOOKAHSTADUIM. all dai errhday.

that stage ****ing *****.

falco just seems like a character who is stale when it comes to stages. like other top and high tiers have stages that are obviously good for them. and some not so good. then falco is just like meeeeh for every stage. besides DK64. that stage is a peice of poop

Falco doesn't have any fantastic stages like the other top tier characters. Oddly enough though a lot of the top falcos have their own stages.

Just counterpick Fountain of Shiz all dai.

FoD is my favorite falco stage in general
Just counterpick Fountain of Shiz all dai.

fod it good cuz:
falcon cant techchase with anything but regrab most of the time cuz the low platforms prevent sh aerials

Marth cant chaingrab...at all.

sheik cant needle storm as well as on other stages, and i love it when they try to dash attack tech chase, but the platform raises right as they do it and miss LOL

falco's uptilt ***** the hell out of the side platforms. its super small so his massive priority dair and uptilt create a wall thats tough to get through.
laser camping on the out edges of platforms makes it even more awkward for someone to approach because they absolutely have to full hop or something because if they land on the platform, uptilt and sh shenanigans from you just destroys them. same strategy works if you are in the middle and they are on the outside.
i cud go on forever about how falco can use FoD way better than most chars.

My favorite stages with Falco would be Yoshi's, Battlefield, and FoD except vs characters like Luigi or Samus. It really depends more on the person you are playing then the character your against if you ask me. A lot of people are uncomfortable on at least 1-2 of the neutrals which is pretty easy to find out by what they stage strike.

for marth, go pokemon staduim or FD, for puff either get off of falco, or go YS or any small stage, and for sheik, battlefield is the one you Dont wanna play at, just because of the ledges or FoD because it messes up lasers, but its not too big of a deal becasue sheik usually has a hard time dealing with falco
