Lmao I'll john about fox for you, Kevin
That guy is just so fast

Does anyone else believe in a "true main"? Like there was always that character that you were "supposed" to play as, even if you do switch and do other characters?
I think you'll always return to that character personally

Yeah I know but it's gotta be a whole community thing like Puff was and Falco is now to a lesser extent.

Also I think my true main should've been Marth.

Why kev? Marth just feels natural?

:phone:
I feel like the way one learns and improves and plays with Marth is just more natural to me than Falco. For example, I absolutely LOVE the dash dance mechanic, but Falco's DD blows LOL. Marth's DD is great though!

Being able to plan out all my punishments and such in advance is far easier with Marth because of his huge range and throw setups. It's part of the reason M2K took him so far as well I think.

Kev just switch in 2012 to Marth

We can be the newnewlyweds, Marth/Zelda

:phone:
LOL newlyweds were Marth/Peach you red haired guy

Marth and samus feel the most natural to me in terms of their movement options. I'm not very good with either, though.

My biggest weakpoint is by far setting up kills, both on and off the stage. This is why I do better with fox and sheik, because you don't have to set up kills as much with them.

Yeah I ask because
1) I went CF -> Sheik -> Marth -> CF -> Fox -> CF [and if you notice almost all of these characters play very similarly]
and 2) one of the people here played Falcon for a long time and was complaining about certain things, switched to Fox on a whim and realized that's who he wanted to play all this time [because of his ability to do those things CF couldn't]

And obviously you know this Kevin but
Falco has a DD
Not the same way
But the way he moves in and out is very similar

I mean I guess to me it's a mindset
But you're right it doesn't work the same

It's just the same idea

Switched to Marth -> Link/Marth -> Fox -> Fox/Falco -> Marth -> Marth/Sheik -> Sheik

I am still a falco main ace. However, I will do the MM with my falcon. ;D, just to make things more swag.

Also, from the moment I touched a gamecube controller. I have always wanted to and played falco lombardi. Never switched or strayed away from him.

Falco now and forever.

i wish ganon had a dd.

the most i can do with it is just bait people to come at me, and when they do, hope they miss.

if i'm feeling tricky i can run away pivot retreating fair, but thats so much effort =/
