Just wanted to hear some educated opinions about this...

Also, a second, related question...in the event that falco still had lasers but people start powershielding lasers consistently (>50%), how good would Falco be?

On my 5th 4 Loko and still ****** you.
I don't know what tier Falco would be in without lasers, but I can tell you that even if people could powershield the lasers 50% of the time, that wouldn't make that much difference. Falco's would just mix up how often they shoot lasers and when, so you would still have to be on your toes. The game would change from "****, I'm getting lasered" to "****, when am I going to get lasered?"

being able to powershield them would be totally different from no lazer at all. you'd still have to stop in the middle of your approach and it'd suck.
but if he had no lazers he'd definitely be high-mid or high, not top.

I think without his Laser, Falco would be the bottom of high tier, or top of middle tier. But tiers are useless. All they do is show who is better when COMPLETELY mastered, and nobody has mastered someone completely. It's all in the mindgames.

Where do you get your information? That's definitely not what the tier list is.
Tier lists obviously serve a purpose. Search before posting, please.

He would probably be in the same spot or maybe below peach, he would lose some of the aggression that moves his meta game, but what makes him good isn't the lasers, it's the shine, although it would give people a lot more time to think vs him haha.
