Gatling combo is pretty meh overall in PM. The main reason is that if you were close enough to land the beginning portions of DA (which is where you can cancel it into Usmash, can't cancel delayed dash attack hits iirc), you were already close enough for an option like SH Dair which is probably 5x better. Dair on shield when timed/done correctly is mucho safer than gatling, and you already *assume* that you are hitting their character or shield when you go for gatling. If you completely miss or mistime, you are boned much harder doing dash attack.Wait wait wait, Falco still has the gatling combo? Why haven't I seen anyone using this? Being able to turbo mode from dash attack to up smash is a pretty big deal...
DACUS on the other hand could have some legit uses to punish people rolling away from his laser game, or rolling away in tech chase. That's underutilized definitely. Gatling combo though is overrated on Falco in dis game.
The only note I have, is that Fox doesn't deserve to be in S tier all by himself. I would group the top 3-5 characters in the same tier, and give Fox a little crown next to his name that says "Usmash"My updated (2nd) tier list. Don't kill me pls
Idk. Sometimes I feel like MK is great, but his neutral game still feels odd. I feel like if someone wants to show that he's top 5, they would have to master all of the intricacies with cancelled Down B attacks, pivot tilts/options from Dashing forward, etc to improve his neutral. He does plenty from Dthrow, and people will get better with his edgeguarding as they lose fear of plummeting like a rock, but I can't help to feel that something feels off with the *current* MK approaching tactics and baits.They are beyond incredible. MK top 5 tbd soon.
Jab winz. Side B is jank only recover. Tornado is jank only recover. Dair is OK but overrated onstage as an approach/tool. Most useful option from it is landing safer after a juggle where they can't reach you that easily. Nair is janky, but very good. How much end lag/how far he still falls once the move is done kind of baffles me, but I guess it's fairer that way.Jab, side b, neutral b, down air, and neutral air are all pretty janky imo. Not that any of them are entirely useless, but they all seem less useful than they're supposed to be.
