You could crouch cancel his attacks into grabs/aerials as well.

I'm moving in tomorrow and I'm wondering if it's worth bringing my setup at all, since as far as I know there's no scene here. Any other Melee players gonna be there this semester?

I'm slowly transitioning to Sheik. I've always really liked her, and since coming back into the scene I've decided a new character that's easier on my hands (hand pains from unrelated events recently). I really like her movement and the challenge of using her in the neutral. Needle edgeguards...

Ultimately, I think you should just pick whoever you have the most fun with. If you have a good time with Falco, just stick with it. You'll get more fun out of playing and practicing if you enjoy the character. For example, I just got burnt out on Falco. I lost all the joy, and all of a sudden...

You can do the above, but there is another technique called PC Dropping, which let's you grab the ledge by moving towards the ledge, turning around at a specific point, and using your momentum to fall off and grab the ledge. It's very difficult for me, but IIRC it's the fastest method. However...

This. The only way to get quality techskill is to just grind it out through sheer muscle memory and repitition. For Fox's SH, it's important to keep yourself relaxed, just let your thumb hit the button, then release. If you tense up, it's a lot harder.

Note that all of this is from my own experience. If it's wrong, then sorry, I'll fix it. I agree with what others said. But also keep in mind the mindset required when playing spacies, and try not to get discouraged if you get bopped, especially early on. Sometimes you just get gimped on FD at...

That's really odd. That's exactly what happened to me. My advice is to honestly just stick with one character. Being strong with one character is a lot better than being okay with several, because you can only play as one character at a time in a match. Attend tourneys, meet with other...

The Smash scene here is pretty absymal, except for Chattanooga. Are there any local tourneys in this area?

I'm Uber Duck. I'm new to the competitive scene, and I'm a scrubby Falco main. At my high school, myself and a few others have established a Smash Club, and it's great to finally be a real part in the Smash community. I'm attending my first tournament (Scenic City Smash V) in November, and I've...

I used to main Marth, but switched over to Falco after realizing that he accentuates my playstyle more than Marth: fast air combos and spikes. After I made the switch, I realized I love pressing buttons fast and shine -> shine -> dair is just so satisfying.
