Up close, Falco wins.[/quote[
Falco cannot get upclose without being in range of marth.
let alone that marth has a 1 frame dragon punch.
Falco boxes a lot better than Marth. If Marth is staying out of Falco's CQC range, Falco can retreat and camp.
Wait what?
Did you just say if marth stays out of Falco's range Flaco can camp him?
OKay dude, go and play the game and the compare the range of their attacks.
Marth cnan perform his attacks while Falco has to struggle to get in close to attack.
marth can swing all day and smack Falco, but Falco has to get in even closer in order for him to land ana ttack on marth.
Falco's Ftilt cannot reach marth, while marth's ftilt can reach Falco.
I'm sure Marth spaces better, but his range is extremely overrated.
How is it overrated?
How do you overrate range?
Its obvious that marth outranges Falco (whereas you are trying to say he doesn't).
This is not even an argument. Play the game, look at the pictures.
Marth>Falco in terms of range.
Aything that Falco tries to perform becomes unsafe due to that range.
Thats why he has an advantage, how do you hit someone who is zoning you without the risk of beig smacked away?
But I'm sure Marth does have the advantage against Falco hand-to-hand, he definitely whoops him in the air. My main problem with calling this matchup a Marth advantage is Falco's ability to camp. What if Falco simply camps the hell out of Marth until Marth gets close, then uses illusion to gain more distance?
Its rather tough to explain.
Marth has good mobility and his good air speed to aid him.
No Falco user is going to use a grounded laser.
The problem though is that he cannot move while using his laser. He is stationary while he is firing in the air.
So if marth jumps and uses a rising air dodge, he would bypass both lasers and continue to approach Falco and be capable of moving back in case Falco fires off a shine.
Falco cannot simply illusion away from Marth.
Why? Again because Marth is so agile. If falco illusions and Marth isnt hit, Marth can close that distance very quickly at which point, Falco cannot simply illusion again because Marth is too close for him to illusion safely.
and I believe you still haven't answered my question..
I believe I had and you simply did not read it and the fact that you are comparing Falco's Ftilt in terms of range to Marth's Fsmash is laughable.
Falco's shine outranges Marth
Too bad its very slow and if it misses or is shielded Falco is going to get his *** kicked.
ts like firing a grounded laser. Even if you hit it doesnt smack the opponent very far if at all.
and his F tilt contends with a lot of Marth's moves.
No it doesn't, you'll eat a Dtilt for trying to Ftilt Marth, let alone it is outranged. You'll be Ftilting air while he can smack you around.
Also, SHDL really ****s with aerial approaches.
marth=/= kirby/Metaknight
He has good speed and mobility .
