    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Hey @Dr Peepee! It's great to hear that you're getting better and to see you back here! Ironically and coincidentally, my questions stem behind the decisions I need to make to beat Marth with Falco. I'm very troubled by this because peoples' playstyles are just so different and there's so many...

    Hey PP, have you come up with any tech traps/gimping with forward/backthrow with falco? I'm not too sure if he has any effective ones unlike marth, who can throw spacies at around 40% or 50% on a platform and delay up-tilt/uair just before the spacie lands For gimps, forward tilts (downwards)...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Man, are there any other ways to practice getting out your aerials precisely to stuff certain moves? PP's really the only falco that does this and somehow always gets his DD AC bair out at a perfect time when its too risky & takes too long to laser. I think he talked about laser -> turn uptilt...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Hey everyone. I would like some advice vs Falcon, if you would. PPMD's advice has always been invaluable but I don't always want to bother him. Would you guys happen to have some tips? My problems boil down to: Being unable to deal with overshot nairs because Falcon covers such a tremendous...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    I had an older version of the 20XX hack pack before I updated to the current one. In the older one, spacies would always shine in midair to escape the chaingrab at around 25% ~ 35% percent and I could never land a full chaingrab. In the current version, they never do that and I seem to be...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    I don't have too much experience in the matchup, but I'd say that laser and bair are by far the most important. How to utilize them effectively kind of comes with practice + reading information that PP's probably already posted on the matchup. You should also make a conscious effort to hold...

    Official The 20XX Melee Training Hack Pack (v5.0.2 - 1/20/2023)

    Does anybody have any suggestions on updating? I think my hack pack is from 2.02 or so. I only have the ISO (hacked version) setup and its in compressed ISO format. Do I need to just uncompress it, replace the files and the recompress it for the update to work?

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    @Dr Peepee Heya PP! A few questions again, if I may! Why do spacies tend to use high aerials (ie. fox's early nair) to approach? Is it just a mixup? Because I see tremendous risk in doing it when they can be cc-grabbed or shield grabbed or worse. Just taking a recent example - you CC shined...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    From what I saw at APEX, Falco can approach the matchup in 2 ways. Mango's style involves spacing perfectly and avoiding hits while trying to graze Fox with aerials and other stuff. Then, he goes ham the moment he lands shine oos. PPMD's is far more control based and he situates his gameplan...

    @Dr Peepee Congrats for winning APEX! :] Really hype sets you had with Armada, man.

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    I've tried to alternate between them with no success. I have also opt to do waveshines forward before doing the double jump but I'm just not successful. Either I'm constantly messing up or it has something to do with the hack pack's strange DI (probably my fault). That being said, another...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    1) Honestly, just practice - Unless your controller really does have serious issues, then I'd suggest just replacing it. I've been only doing it for a bit but it doesn't seem like anything too difficult to handle. 2) You and your opponent have objectives. Investigate what objectives they are and...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    I'm not entirely sure, but Puff, ICs and Samus do seem like 'strange 50-50 matchups' for Falco to deal with. Peach too I guess. He goes even or better with the rest of the cast.

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Man, jab -> shine is great. @PP or anybody else: Is there a way to improve your reactions, or at least be capable of discerning what kind of DI it is right after you land a shine? I think this would definitely improve everybody's overall punishgame because I'm usually left with the right idea...

    PPMD's Falco Discussion Thread

    Hey everyone. I'm back with some more questions - If I may. Thanks for the help PP! I've started to look at some of your Pound 4/5 matches, though it'll probably take a while to deconstruct and analyze. Right now, I just have a few, basic questions for anybody free to answer: 1) What are the...
