I main as fox/kirby and never ONCE played as captain falcon because I thought he wouldn't fit my gameplay style. Yesterday I saw a video on youtube and I decided to start playing (not maining, just for fun) as him. I don't want to put alot of practice into it for now because I'm still working (hard) on my kirby. I might have a friend over to play some matches and he's been practicing hard to beat my fox and marth. I thought it would throw him off to take out a random character and totally pwn him :laugh: . Like I said before, I don't want to practice alot.

1. Any major things I should know about falcon? (besides Knee ftw)

2. Any quick combos I could learn?

3. Should I spike alot?

It would be really nice if you could rreply please. I would really apreciate it.

1. Don't get grabbed for the most part, and read the G-reg combo thread (first couple of pages should do ya)
2. Medium percents, alot of stuff combos directly into a knee. Falcon can do alot of chip damage with Nairs and quick stomp/forward B combos so you don't have to combo people to death, just stick with what works.
3. No, prefer a bair to a spike, or an edgehog.

Falcon can throw to knee any character at a certain percent. Learn it.

Uair to knee on floaties. Uthrow to fsmash on space animals after 80% if they don't DI the uthrow or if they DI it backwards. Just practice tech chasing a dair into a knee, or tech chased stomp to whatever combo you want.

And watch vids.

Thanks, that helps a little.

That REALLY helps. My friend is most likely going to play as a Falco so I need to test that out.
