yeah but the falcons MUs just say not in his favor because he cant approach and he has to approach so it the same basic thing. the only impossible MUs are MK, marth, peach, wolf(IMO), G&W which isnt too bad but it still sucks. These boards are a little dead at times.

Replace Peach with Olimar and Wolf with Falco and we're okay.

What teluoborg said, except G&W doesn't **** us lol.
And lol @ Wolf, he only hard counters us on wifi

Sorry forgot about Olimar cause I don't play any. And my reasoning for wolf is that he can just shine counter any move we throw at him. Falco on the other hand is really hard but not impossible. Besides the chain grab to spike he doesn't really have a reliable way to kill you under 150. Wolf can do that a lot earlier with d-smash and reflector gimps. If the wolf and falco MU is going to change every falcon needs to get good with combo #34. By the way what is the pikachu MU cause I found out the hard way that falcon get chain grabbed to like 80.

I don't think it's to 80, but yeah it's not fun. Pika's CG isn't that good because you can only get CG'd like 3 times across SV before you reach the other side.
Always pick BF or YI, RC might not be too bad either.

Lord Pika's CG on Falcon is done with buffered Dthrows, and yes it goes to something like 80%.
Pika is quite a hard matchup because of his size, his mobility and his CG.
But I still disagree about Wolf being harder than Falco.

Best thing about wolf is that wolf gimps himself 
lordhelmet

I know that lol.
You slide across pretty far before you get regrabbed, that's why I'm saying it's not that bad. I still don't think it goes to 80 but I'll look into it sometime.
Edit: I was thinking fthrow which can go to 60%. I've never had a Pika dthrow chain me, apparently it does go to 80%.

No one said to take Wolf to YI in this thread. Why wouldn't you take him there though??
Edit: double post my bad

Don't know exactly but my guess is: camping under platform make it impossible to approach, side b travels across map not on the angle it is supposed to and kills you well enough, easier time for him to up b recover

Was talking about Pika, lrn2read.

The match-up with Wolf is just like how a man would treat a dog in reality. You kick and dropkick them multiple times until they yield or die. When a canine starts shooting you with an energy blaster, you run up to them, avoiding the bullets, grab them by the neck and smash their face into the ground.
Game set.

Seriously though. Against Wolf, spam Bair. If he's on the ground, it's possible to punish just about all of his options if you space it properly. If he starts abusing blaster, rolls and smashes, Bair abuse works extremely well. Cancel the Bair into a Ftilt if he tries to roll behind you. I've been finding it extremely useful against Wolf, since a lot of them tend to abuse roll -> downsmash more than your average, spammy Meta Knights.

Cons :
-ledgehopped aerials can kill you if you're not frame perfect.
-the background can cause epileptic seizure attacks.
It's an interesting stage (I like the platforms) but it's also dangerous.

I know it's the Falcon boards, but do you guys even have your own backroom?
lordhelmet
Smash Master
Why would we need a backroom?

Why wouldn't you want one? A backroom is for those dedicated to Falcon's production and bettering of his metagame.

Great enthusiasm Bob
do you get hit by Ganon's Warlock punch often?
A backroom sounds unnecessary if we only have half a dozen falcons dedicated to enhancing his metagame. Get like 7 ppls and you'll be somewhat good for a backroom.
