Über-pro Falcon guide by AngeloBangelo OMFG VERSION 2.00 IS OUT!!!1

Why Uthrow -> knee when u can Uthrow -> Fsmash? lol Uthrow into Knee isn't actually even guarenteed until around 120-125 I believe.

Exactly. That's what I was trying to point out, but perhaps I should have said that the f-smash works at a lower percent (somewhere like 70-90), UNLESS they DI away. Then you have to techchase them.

Excellent guide, Angelo. I have a problem with a counter-whoring Marth. I've tried feigning the full-jumped Knee, but I'm too low after he counters. This may be a minor problem, but I still need help. Any tips?

just grab him and cg or nair combo him

After about one successfully predicted counter I bet he won't try that again, you should do what MikeHaggar said. You really ain't got nothing to loose except a few % from the counter. So what if he didn't counter and escaped. Don't get greedy on a Marth.

theres so much to read it hurts my eyes

 

[NickTheGreat]

I love this guide, this will definitely make me play Falcon more!

 

[Zephynazo]

Is Marth / Falcon or Falcon / Sheik the best team?

 

[SirNegroJuice]

Marth & Falcon are better (not best) than Falcon & Sheik.

 

[Zephynazo]

Hmm... Couldu tell me like, why6 they are better? What advantages / disadvantages?

 

[SirNegroJuice]

Marth balances out Falcon more then Sheik. For example, Falcon has bad recovery and edge guarding skills. Marth is better in these areas than is Sheik, so he makes up for those weaknesses found in Falcon more than Sheik does. Also, Marth is better at handling the space animals (and the floaties too) than Sheik - and in this game a character's advantage over any of the top few characters is a legitimate reason.

 

[MexicanBJ]

um.....although sirnegrojuice has given all adequte and legitimate reasons

i'd like to point out one major one that he's overlooked

this helped me alot i have been playing falcon for a while and i learn a couple new things thanks man.

 

[ChRed2AKrisp]

the damage for the up B needs to be updated. it says it's probably crappy, but it can actually deal 17, more than the knee. it has damage for the initial grab and then damage for the explosion, so it can deal less if your opponent gets hit out of it by a teammate or something.

tHIs GUIDE IS A LONG drawn out falcon guide..that actually did not teach me anything..
(no offense ANGELOBANGELO)

 

[TTTempesTTT]

I figured out a new really easy way to shield cancel the gentleman every time.

Press A for first punch
Press Z for second punch
Press Z for third punch and then hold Z

Your light shield will come up and then you can wavedash out of it to quickly respace and/or follow up.

I'm sure someone else has already found/posted this method, but I thought it was a really good find so I thought I should post it.

Gentlemans are really useful and I'm starting to like it almost as much as the shine.

That's all I had to read. lol

Good guide though for sure.
