I went to a tournament yesterday where I played a mixture of Marth and Sheik, and I ended up placing relatively well, but I would have gotten a better placing if i;t wasn't for this one really, really stupid Falco player.
I almost never have trouble with most characters at my level of play, which I'd say is mid-highish level.
Anyway, this guy I lost to just played really lame. He would absolutely refuse to approach you and would just short hop laser over and over and over and try to bait a dumb approach from me. If he forced me into shield, he would always get these insanely lucky shieldstabs that people rarely ever get on me at all and I'd just have to take the hits.
Then, if he whiffed an aerial on shield or just in general, he would almost always spot dodge. I was so damn close to beating him because it went to game three, but I just couldn't bait out enough of his spot dodges to win, though I did bait out maybe 75% of them and his dumb laser camping was just really, really annoying. Maybe I got impatient, but **** Falco players who just laser in place over and over.
God, that pissed me off because I know I'm better than that and I shouldn't lose to such a lame playstyle.
How do you play against really lame Falcos like this guy as Marth or even Sheik? I didn't try Sheik against him but maybe someone here can give me advice on that too.
