Tell me how to beat Falcon

[Donnie_Cash]

I can't do it. Stomp on shield and knee to jab is too good. Down throw or up air into anything is stupid. I hate it. halppppp

Play movement-heavy and be quick out of shield. Get him off stage and kill him at 50%.

Late knee to jab is safe, but you can buffer jump away or just cc the jab. Remember falcons grab range when stationary isnt that great, he needs a running start to get much distance on his grab

Loving the tips, i will try to apply them. Thanks.

Would Up-B out of shield help against stomp on shield? I mean, Falcon isn't supposed to have great pressure or anything, but I'm not a Samus main so please correct me if I'm wrong. In general Up-B OoS is quite strong.

 

[Aftermath]

Assuming it's timed correctly, falcon's dair is safe on shield by a few frames, so upB out of shield isn't guaranteed. There's also an issue of spacing in most cases, so it's often not a great punish. If the falcon tries for a grab though, you should be able to beat it out every time with upB.

TILT! TILT! TILT!

That's what I learned against my MU against the Falcons. Our smashes are so punishable with his quick SH knees it should only be reserved for punishment.

And bomb....because bomb.
