    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Thanks PP. So in a tournament setting where I'm playing to win. I could theoretically, ( my level of play which I'd probably say is lower than intermediate, we're about 2 years old) exploit my opponent to victory. Obviously this wouldn't work on higher skilled players that can mix things up...

    Okay, so recently with my endeavors to git gud, I'm treating my opponents with more respect than I think I should be . I.e. everyone in my scene is doing NOTHING but fishing for a grab Oos when they play against me. So I KNOW that if I nair on shield and shine I'll win about 8/10 times. So...

    Yeah. So it is just forcing myself to recognize these situations and through experience it should stick?

    I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakthrough. After taking a vacation and coming back, (i hadn't practiced analyzing any pro matches) I watched a vod and I noticed that I was able to kind of "see" why players were choosing the options they were choosing. I started seeing actual...

    Thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it. I don't know if I've asked this question before, but I've grown a lot as a player since I started almost a year and a half ago. I have a severe mental game issue. I have trouble learning my opponent's patterns. I have trouble noticing my opponent's...

    So I've been practicing my shield pressure on 20xx by setting the cpu to grab OoS and I've been able to get my late dair shines and shine grabs down, but I'm having trouble with shine -> dair I can get it sometimes, but I feel like I'm missing something. It also seems dependent on how close I am...

    I'm trying to get better st my ledge combos, but whenever I dair, shine, then try to pop up for my next shine, sometimes falco doesn't jump cancel the shine. What gives?

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Well I really appreciate the help, guys. I found this mode in 20XX which allows you to hit your opponent in shield and it will either Nair, roll in/out/spotdodge. And I think it's for hard reads to shield pressure. What do I do against a fox that rolls back? It's such a fast roll, i have no...

    Cool, I'll start to work on that. I appreciate the help. But am I right in thinking that there's no point in committing to a hard read on a roll?

    Well, Sometimes I'd just go for a nair into shield. Sometimes I'd Dair shine, sometimes even me just running toward him would cause him to roll back. He was using Marth.

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Okay, guys. first off, I want to thank everyone who's helped me with my opponent observation issue. Over the last couple of day's I've gotten so much better and noticing not just the same options that my opponent uses to get back to the stage, but I've also learned how to break down...

    How fast do I need to put this input in? I can do it, but sometimes I don't connect with the bair or the dair. Is it percentage based?
  14. V_x_I_D

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    How do you guys practice catching character's in the air with a shine? How do you practice Jump-canceled Shines to a quick dair or bair?

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    YES. That's what blew my mind! It happened just ONCE and immediately the mixups began. THAT fast, it's absolutely ridiculous, but amazing.
