use attacks
Wow wow, don't think you can get away with this one. The warrior sees all!

Wow these Jiggs ****** tournaments... another Jiggs win.. Jiggs needs to be higher definitely. That's like the 3rd win I hear in a period of just maybe 2 months. Hbox also got 2nd, he lost to Darkrain at Tipped Off 4. Like wow... And I saw Mango beat SS in grand finals yesterday but he did not go puff, he went fox mostly I think.

It was funny because I asked in the chat and the commentators: What would happen if I would face SS? And then the WC guys were trashtalking me and stuff, it was hilarious. Like SS would **** you 3-0. What the WC don't know is my experience against Falcon, you know that bad feeling you get when you choose falcon vs me? I'm sure many of you know. I'll show them that flashy stuff don't work vs me!

It does? Well i guess it depends of the spacing. This matchup I think heavily depends of the spacing of each player. Because I know Backair beats Nair for sure lol.

I remember when we were playing the first hit of my nair was trading with fair and I was getting depressed xD

mango mosty went falcon (dittos) in grand finals. He only went fox for the first game then everyone was saying how SS combos better and mango couldnt hang with SS in falcon dittos. so he decided to prove everyone wrong :(

to not over shoot it try neutralising the stick as you're jumping. that or tilt it very slightly

tips against marth? most of my approaches get tilted. maybe because of my opponents bad DI, im able to use a (pseudo) chain grab on him, but other than that, i dont feel to advantageous in this match up.

dthrow is a real chaingrab at low percents on marth, I don't know the exact ending point, but I've never been successful
(I may just be too slow, or possible in vise-versa and my opponents have been too slow and my chaingrab worked longer than it should have)
past 18%.

wait to watch DI and continue to grab or do any other good move (uair and nair for speed knee if right percent and u have time)

marth is easy to beat no jokez falcons only good matchup out of the ppl above him (unless peach is above him thesedays)

it's a playstyle issue and the matchup is no better than 60/40 regardless, it's not easy it's just not as hard as fox/falco/sheik

Ya playstyles with Falcon makes a HUGE difference.. I've noticed you did really well vs Vwins (Peach). I'm sure other falcons have character specialization like spacies and stuff.

Hmm, I pretty much agree with the playstyle comments. I really <3 fighting against Fox, but I am horrible in Falcon dittos and Sheik is just gay. Falco is okay.
