There's some neat combos there, but after the second stock you just stopped being offensive. Started tilting after aerials and dodging alot, if you're ever in the situation where your opponent is the aggressor try and turn it around with a crouch cancel. Those things do wonders more than shield grabs or rolls.
There was alot of standing there trying to get an uptilt, and although the move is great you shouldn't be using it that much since it puts you on the defensive. You also like to jump really high above opponents and just down air. Although fox isn't the best character to punish this, a marth or ganon will just sit there and grab you no questions asked. So stick with the short hopped stuff.
The fox was alright but kept recovering retardedly so there's not much to critique in edgeguarding -_-;.
Overall you were pretty good at the start, then progressively seemed to run out of ideas or something.

thanks, I noticed the u-tilt thing as i was watching, and i think its become a bad habit so ive gotta do it less. I'm gonna try to get some more up to date stuff up.
That video quality really was awful, sometimes I couldn't tell who was Fox and who was Falco.
I agree with FalseFalco, your first two kills were really nice and you stayed right on top of Fox with overwhelming offense and good waveshines just like Falco should be played. Then all of a sudden you let Fox control the match for the next two kills and let him repeatedly drill kick and drill shine you while you stood still and tried u-tilt over and over. Once you hit him with the u-tilt you started a good combo but you could've gotten him much earlier with a shield grab or a WD into a smash instead of waiting to land a u-tilt.
Obviously it was also not good when you Phantasm'd off the stage. In any case, your skill is very good but your mindgames, shielding, and abuse of u-tilt could all improve. I wish I could waveshine as well as you but I've only been playing about 2 weeks on and off.
