The secret is that you must have input the Dair right after the SH, and before Falcon leaves the ground.
You've got like 7 frames, so sliding your thumb like Slader said is the best solution.

Auto-Canceled, but for some reason, i can't do it with the A-Button D: (C-stick johns)

Edit:Overlooked that question by a page, Darky beat me to it.

is not that hard to do with the A is actually harder with the C-stick, because it causes fast falling. But after you build the memory you will do it with ease :D

In Melee it did, but i find it easier with the C-Stick on AC aerials.
Must be accustomed to it:p

I'll post here since there's no general discussion thread.
This board needs a new grab release thread for Falcon with every grab release possible vs every character including if they're forced air-breaks or not. I think Falcon has things like grab release full hop nair vs Mario and grab release sweet-spot fair (full hop as well) vs Ness and visited this character board to check but the information wasn't there.

question, what is Gentleman useful for? i've been using it alot more in my gameplay, so far i've been able to set up Jab Strings that lead up to 15-20 damage. But most of the time it just gets me punished :\

It really depends on who you are playing... I sometimes use the Gentleman against heavy characters, and if it works the first time (they don't SDI it) then I'll use it again.

I just stick with jab>grab on lightweights and jab>jab>grab on heavies for the most part.

Jump, then immediately dair, right at the beginning of the short hop.
Don't fast fall it and it should have enough frames to auto-cancel itself.

oh yeah, its situational, but like telling lordy, Uair>footstool>FK=ground combo, not aerial combo =_=

it racks at least 25%-28%
