What is Falco's best move(s)??

we all know how cheap his laser can be, but that's basically for falco nubs.

he was my best in melee, but since they changed half his moves i've ignored him completely.

i like Dair, Dsmash, Dthrow, and Dspecial.

i think those r his best, but i've heard alot about Uair and usmash and am having problems executing them efficiently. plz help. ty!!

it's all about the dthrow and the dair. Heh.

But if i had to pick one not on your list, i'd say nair. It's really good.

B-Air. There's no denying it's godly power. If Falco had a decent F-Air to match it, he'd be litterally untouchable.

Everyone has their own opinions. I don't think there is a "best" move. I find upsmash to be the most versatile, so I'd say it's my favorite.

Since we don't seem to have someone moderating the Falco forums, our only competent Falco guide sits randomly in the list. Perhaps if someone stickied it, more people could read it and find out for themselves what Falco has to offer...

But alas, that doesn't seem like it'll happen any time soon, so I'm going to link you to a Falco guide that was sticked, albeit on a different (i.e. better) site.

lol? say that to Seth. Heck, any competitive Falco -.-

I'd say dair, just because its so dam satisfying when you get a spike.

The question should be what moves aren't good.
I hate nair and fair. at least one of them should be normal and not a stupid insanely weak multihit. Everything else is fine. ^^

All his moves are great but Lasers arnt for nubs. Falco's best imo is Bair,Dair, Relector,and Lasers

Am I the only one who loves u-tilt...?
That goes for nair as well, but I wouldn't mind the nair from melee.

Lasers definitely aren't for nubs they can help lead into a chain grab or be set up into a kill move, if done properly, also great for pressuring or interrupting an opponents attack. IMO his Dair(can lead into other moves for follow ups), lasers, Bair for spacing, Usmash(nice for a surprise attack), Neutral A combo(has nice priority), and Nair for spacing or if you Dthrow them and they DI towards you.

I don't really think he has a best move. All his attacks are stringed beautifully together. :D

The nair is great for shield pressuring, but wait, everyone prefers to camp, don't they? Nah!
Everything is great, even the fair. Haven't you seen SlashTalon doing the stagespike edgeguard in his combo vid? That actually works in tourney play, you know!

Does the attack from the ledge count?
If it does, then it's ledge attack+ laser= Laserlock?
Well, it's my favorite, but I doubt it'd work against pros.
But it works wonders in team battle...

I like dthrow and dair, and laser best.
If I have to choose all, it would be:
Throws: Dthrow (It chains, and it looks cool)
B moves: Standard B (Very useful for any situation)
A attacks: Ftilt (It can do a high, medium, or low kick)
Smashes: Usmash (He does a backflip, and that doesn't hurt like the splits)
Aerials: Dair (Come on, it can be used for almost anything!)

With these moves alone (and his trusty bread, of course) he could wipe out a lot of the cast.

And with dair....
Ever went to CF's Brawl stage?
Get someone over the moving ground, and continuously dair them.
It's like playing basketball.

Laser is not a noob weapon, learn to play Falco.
other than the CG, I'd say the laser is the best thing Falco has going for him. Not that he doesn't have a ton of great things going for him but laser is near the top of the list
