i....... kinda agree with lucas.
and am shocked
that no one else did.
because
from what i see in vids and what kev has told me about the character,
falco seems really basic.
that does not mean he is not technical, or hard to play.
i guess it just means that what you see is what you get/
like d3 in brawl
he is the most un depth character i have ever seen
but still wins regionals :/
i would also relate Falco to being like wolverine in mv3
because like falco,
wolverine can do some cool and fancy ****,
but there is no point when ur bnb combos almost hit to death ur opponent :/

Easiest character to use vs people who don't know how to fight Falco maybe. He's a completely different character once people know the match up aka how to avoid/beat laser strats and DI shines/Dairs correctly.
He's also the single easiest character in the game to kill or gimp with any character and he has a HUGE technical learning curve. This means that you are super prone to making small mistakes which lead to instant death, mistakes which Marth/Peach/Jiggs/Samus/Ganon/almost anyone else would take some percent but definitely not die for, with a character that is very prone to causing you to make little mistakes. You have to play SO smart to just not DIE anytime you approach someone with a good OOS game.
Lmao at all of the people saying Falco is easy to use and can't do most of his important advanced tech stuff.
Yes Alex, I'm talking about that flounder you call a Falco.

Lol flounder.. that was pretty funny I must admit

Single easiest character to kill or gimp maybe if you suck at mixing up your recovery. Falco has recovery options.
And as far as being tech-chased to death or whatever, he doesn't have a bad tech roll like CF does and he also has things like quick attacks out of techs to make punishing him slightly harder.
His physics work more to his benefit than they work to his disadvantage. IT's a double-edged sword, yes, but one edge is definitely sharper than the other. lol
I was going somewhere else with this too but I stopped caring and forgot.
Also, stongers has the most entertaining FAlco ever. So unbelievably goofy. I can hear it saying this everytime he hits/combos you and it makes me happy

Basically you guys just need to take a step back and breathe. Got that breath in your lungs? Okay grasp this concept.
Josh is a hater. There is nothing that will ever stop his hate.
Don't try to argue. Don't try to like, make anything logical out of the situation. Don't bring anything to the table. You WILL Lose the argument. Because no one in this community is "not wrong" the way Josh is "not wrong" he will super spacie counter logic circles around you. End of story. When he says something about the game in anger, just nod and remain silent. When he does something ****, congratulate him.
If he had it his way falco would be the only character in melée. Falcon and fox are perfectly acceptable in his mind (SOMETIMES) marth is a stretch. If you play anyone else, **** you play falco.
If he has to press sixteen buttons to do something to you, and you only have to press one to punish him. Then your a scrub. Scrubs.
Some people never learn

I agree with Kevin, everyone has some dumb ****
As far as Falco being the easiest person to gimp, i dunno about that
There's a quote sticking out in my head right now:
"I mean, he goes up, then forward, then down. How the **** am I supposed to predict that?" ~The General on CF's recovery.
Falco and Falcon are similar in that respect, as in if they're offstage then they're dead.
But Falco actually has the [slightest] advantage in the fact that he has 4 options for recovery [Double Jump, upb, sideb, and airdodge] as opposed to CFs 3 [DJ, Up B, Airdodge]
So complain as much as you want, but that's how the game is played, and how you kind of have to accept your fate. As an ex-Falcon player, you should know that better than anyone.

I always felt like Fox and falco's weaknesses were all pretty similiar. They both get chaingrabbed/comboed/edgeguarded the exact same. Fox is lighter than Falco so his marginally longer Firefox doesn't really help by too much. Yeah, Fox is faster but Falco has better direct control over the opponent so that kind of evens it out.
You say options are easy to cover but you're not always it the position to do so. Falco's don't die EVERYTIME they're knocked off the stage and edgeguarding a smart falco is alot more unpredictable than edgeguarding a marth, sheik, Falcon etc. Edgeguarding MArth/Sheik is really just a rote, mechanical process. Grab the ledge, wait for up-b, punish lag with a smash or something, rinse and repeat. Edgeguarding a spacey pretty much comes down to you predicting his Illusion ands stuffing it and then being in a good position to crush the Fire. All while having to worry about them doing weird things like shine stalling, shortening the illusion or taking some really weird angle with the Up-b and avoiding the edgeguard altogether.
forgot where I was going again

gahhhhhh I miss steven.
I can't quit until after the summer because I have to see that guy as much as possible when he's here.

Eh, I honestly think Falco is one of the easiest characters in the game to play. Probably harder than Jiggs/Sheik though. A week after I picked him up as a secondary I took both Mike and Twitch to last game in tournament. I guess my fox techskill carries over, but it just seems really easy to do relatively well with him.
At the highest level of play, though, it's not the character you're playing that makes this game hard, it's everything else.

Nah falco isn't really that easy vs people who know how to fight falco. Its way easier to fight most matchups with fox unless they don't know how to deal with lasers
lord karn
Smash Master
I guess what I'm saying is, is that at high level it's just as hard with every character. And until then Falco is among the easier characters.

Even on a lower level falco isn't that easy... basic gimps will still **** falco and so will cg's fox/Sheik/jiggs/peach are way easier than falco
lord karn
Smash Master
Like I said, sheik and jiggs are probably easier, but I disagree completely on the others. Peach definitely seems harder to play, but maybe that's just because I find it really hard to play her. Also, I definitely think fox is the hardest character in the game. Nobody is going to be perfect with cgs until higher level play, anyways.

jiggs is hard to play if u suck at spacing (which u all do) or zoning (which u all do) or creativity (which u all do)
falco is easy to play even with none of those talents
tldr: get good scrubs

How is peach in any way harder than falco anything under than high level. You barely have to lcancel so there is no tech skill barrier and you more than half the time you can take stocks with just dsmash lol. Mid level peach is no where near hard
Lightsyde
Smash Champion
Seriously. I've been trying not to comment about this but midlevel Peach is a joke, especially vs Falco. If they can't space well and DI (they can't, hence midlevel) it's free Dsmashes, mash Nair out of combos, and Dash attacks all day. Sooooo easy.
Falco gets ***** at midlevel pretty badly, unless they don't know how to deal with lasers. Fox however is super beast at mid level. Upthrow BnB, Nair spam and Usmash all day. I remember one tourney I just decided to play Fox instead of Falcon and beat Peter and went to last stock, last hit vs Ali's Falcon. lmao

ic is super easy. aall we do is slide around and dsmash. and the power of dsmash is random. it either kills you at 60 or it kills you at 20. pretty absurd.
