nair so nice.

it work bery good.

Honestly, learning to space nairs is very important, cuz they go through a lot, can start combos, and allow you to get a feel on your opponent

falcon has projectiles, and they are his feet and knees

 

[Faithkeeper]

In teams...

What do you use to save your teammate?

 

[DuckPimp]

whup your opponents before your teammate gets touched

joking aside, what situations are you referring to?

 

[kpm91]

I guess if your teammate is recovering, you can always grab them and throw them back on the level like SS does. Other than that, I can't really think of any other "safe" moves to do that wouldn't cause considerable damage (depending on their %).

 

[Roneblaster]

i use reverse upair and weak bair to save my teammates.

 

[DuckPimp]

i cant really think of any falcon moves that would not kill one of you.

generally, if theyre off the stage and cant recover, theyre at a high damage. You can try sourspotting bair or knee, but its risky
and if you try to angle an uair to knock them onto the stage, chances are youll die, from either edgeguarding or simply distance.

you could always mercykill them with the knee

edit: ^roneblaster yeah, those could work. im just not good enough to do them and make it worthwhile haha

 

[Tomacawk]

down tilt works really well for saves. it not only puts a hitbox on the ledge (which presumably has an enemy holding it) but it also poops (not a typo) your teammate up and has good range off the ledge
if you're really desperate you can up b them towards the stage but then you probably get ledge guarded
if they're good you can stomp them and they can meteor cancel or you can drop zone bair and give them a chance to tech
also nair

 

[DuckPimp]

i guess i just need to play more doubles.

Alch0ol, where you at? More doubles are needed.

 

[Brookman]

i use reverse upair and weak bair to save my teammates.

I use strong knees and down airs to save my team mates.

 

[Alch0ol]

hehehe double falcon for doubles! or rather fox falcon!

Duck pimp ROCKS!

 

[Alch0ol]

In teams...

What do you use to save your teammate?

depends

run off double jump 1st hit n-air

reverse up-air

fuked up gentlemen to repeated punches if they barely can't make it

 

[DuckPimp]

hehehe double falcon for doubles!

Guys, we're the next SS/Darkrain. Watch out.

... i can't even keep a straight face on that one...

 

[Roneblaster]

in friendlies ill use reverse strong knee to save my teammate.

if theyre close to making it back, but wont. tomacox is right, dtilit is probably the way to go.

rapid jabs are good but leaves you even more open to get ****ed.

 

[GooeyBanana]

Jump, double jump, Falcon Kick -> Success.

Or, I Falcon Punch and they tech it. I expect my teammates to be gods of Smash.

 

[GooeyBanana]

Awesome, double post.

How do you guys all do pivot fsmashes? I'm seeing too much success with them from SS so I'm gonna try and incorporate them in my game. Right now I'm doing them by using the C-stick, but is anyone else finding more success with using A instead?

 

[ETWIST51294]

The only Falcon that ***** without the cstick was the Falcon god himself, Isai.

 

[Tomacawk]

I find the timing to be exactly like running usmashes when using both sticks; it's just a little tighter (no 3-5 frame leeway)

 

[ETWIST51294]

Awesome, double post.

lol opps mybad. I only read the last part on my last post. I do it with the A button.

 

[GooeyBanana]

Yeah, I just started doing it with A now because that way I can charge the Smash if necessary because I always grab instead of Smash if I try and use C-stick + Z. Only thing that sucks is that I'll occasionally dash attack instead which is no good >_<

 

[BigD!!!]

up b them to save your opponent

it sends them away, but they get their jump back, theyll probably make it

PLUR, that **** can work but its so **** hard that you probably wont be able to do it in the small window necessary to actually punish the lag of something

 

[LordAizen]

I have a quick question sometimes when I wavedash backwards I'll also change the direction I'm facing. Like if I'm facing right and I wavedash to the left backwards then sometimes I'll end up facing left after I'm done wavedashing. is that bad?

 

[DuckPimp]

its situational, it depends on what youre going for. its because you hold the control stick a little longer than you should if you want to stay in the same direction. it can be good, if you want to turn around and grab or something like that

 

[Roneblaster]

you're holding the left stick in the direction you are WDing too long.

 

[KirbyKaze]

Jeff is so ****ing good at this game

 

[Roneblaster]

yep. i was dissapointed to see him struggle vs pewpewu though.

 

[SM3EsH]

I either, neglect to see why there is [important] in front of this thread...haha or I'm failing to see things.

 

[Roneblaster]

well it used to be [IMPORTANT] WHY ARE YOU GUYS STILL APPROACHING?!?!

 

[ETWIST51294]

Scar put it there when it said "Why are you guys still approaching?" and he never took it off.

edit: DAMMIT BLASTRONER

 

[Roneblaster]

btw etwist, i L O V E love the name blastroner, it makes me giggle everytime i say it or think it, but Roneblaster is deeply embeded into the hearts and minds of the 10's of 10's Reneblade fans now.

lolllll
****ing blostrunner

 

[LordAizen]

If i ever become a good smasher I'm going to use the name Dynamo

 

[ETWIST51294]

Dynamo? Too plain, add some spark. :D


dynamotastic.
LOL

And @ Blastroner, you know the name is amazing.

lol. I was basing it off of a character named Dynamo from Megaman X that I really like plus it's original, I've never seen a pro named Dynamo.

Also I'm getting the hang of L Cancelling but I have one problem. I'm holding the R for too long because the Shield keeps popping up. How do I get rid of this habit?

 

[-WoMp-]

You can just barely tap L/R (similar to lightshield) before you land and it will still L-cancel. Give it a shot.

count me as one of those ten's

 

[*P*L*U*R*]

You know, people used to think L-cancelling was hard.

Get to work, Falcon-mains. I believe in you.

 

[prog]

combos videos are there to inspire and awe, not to be used as teaching or learning material

combo videos made me wanna play falcon too, but i soon figured out that they dont happen easily, and that i really need to get the fundamentals down before i even tried them

yeah, i agree, practice l canceling with characters who make it really obvious, like link with his dair, and ganon and bowser (with all of their moves)

DuckPimp really is the best name ever

 

[jetfour]

DickPump. Is that intended at all?

P.S.

I MAIN SHEIK NOW
