Any known way to get out of Falco's chain grab before 50%?

[Traviz]

Does anyone know of a way to get out of/counter Falco's chain grab?

 

[abit_rusty]

Nope.

I sat down with someone the other day and just had him down throw chain grab me. I tried every thing, all DI, air dodging, pulling out a nade, shaking out of the grab. It's just too fast. I did manage to DI a little before 50%...maybe around the 4th or 5th throw, can't recall, but I think that was luck. You either hope the falco messes up, not likely, or don't get grabbed. All I can say is facing falco, shield drop nades for insurance when you see him approaching.

I played a Falco online today and that was basically all he did. I managed to cypher-fly out of 2 of the chain-grab incidences though. I dunno if i timed it right, got lucky, or he just messed up a little. But yeah the best offense against this is defense . Try as best you can not to get caught in that mess >.>

Yeah... boss it was probably the lag that allowed you to get out of his chain grab.

Falco probably wont mess up because its pretty easy to chain grab but you can hope he trips =P.

That's true xD. If so, I finally, in years of online games, found a plus side to lag .

another broken trick in this game :\

The only reliable method to get out of Falco's chaingrab is to unplug your opponent's controller and beat them into a coma.

doesnt just jabbing work? i've gotten out of falco's chaingrabs like this several times.

that might work if you're on the ground after the throw, but you're in the air

so no

getting a solid counterpick sounds good. either that or camp like a bi tch. keep jumping, nading, c4ing. make sure you pick battlefield so you can keep him above you and exploit the awesome nair into platform

 

[GoForkUrself]

And the solid counterpick of falco is?
Still working on figuring that out.

What I try to do is use the same command as if you were about to wave-dash. Hold the joystick the opposite way you're facing the opponent and press jump+r/l at the same time. I do it right after falco is done stuffing me into the ground and shooting. It works sometimes.
