Why doesn't M2K use Falco that often if he feels like he's the best in the game?

I'm just curious about this and I felt that asking the advice of wiser Smashers was the way to go.

He may not know how to use him or he just doesn't enjoy using him. He may have his own reasons.

M2K has said that he thinks he's not a technical player. Fox or Falco is/are the most technical characters in the game (and you'll notice M2K mainly plays Fox against Puff, where the only techy thing he does frequently is SHDL and wavedash), so it's possibly a mental block. He is probably just be choosing the character he thinks gives him the best chance to win, and for whatever reason, he feels that despite Falco being the best, he is personally better suited to Sheik and Marth.

Huh.
That's true.
I didn't really realize that, I was just a little confused when I first read him saying that, but you make sense there.
Thank you for helping!

Well I mean, if everybody thinks spacies are the best characters in the game, why doesn't everyone main spacies?

Because people have their own preferences and may not be successful with them. Axe recently said that he feels as though he could spend just as much time with Falco/Fox as he does Pikachu but they will never reach the level his Pikachu is.

I asked him directly that same question and he said because his habits as a falco not shl a lot if part of him and he just cant break the habit
