@ Hylian, your Falco is solid and very technical. Good use of bdacus, ledge lasers and boost pivot grabbing. You use good judgement on assessing whether or not its worth approaching. IMO though heres a few things I might change/add:
While bdacus IS a quick and unexpected tactic to use on your opponent, you seemed to overuse it a bit, which takes away alot of the "surprise" factor. Also, bair more. Bairing onto the stage is an amazing mixup as opposed to using get-up attack or phantasm.

What about nair? I like using nair to get off the edge personally >_>.

I also use bair a lot more in other matches heh. I'll keep that in mind though. I do bdacus way too much sometimes >_>.

Edit:
Also, here is a more silly match but it should assure you that I use bair when the opportunity presents itself lol:

Honestly there is not much to say. A bit more time with Falco and everything I think will correct itself.

One thing that sticks out for me is quit trying to Usmash after Dthrow so much. In match 3 you tried it every single time pretty much. And it was not even as percents where it would kill him. Against DDD it was fine since he does not have any aerials that can threaten you at those trajectories, but other characters can punish you trying to do that or do as DDD and get away all the time by airdodging.

A better idea might be to try to dash forward. By doing that if someone DIs up, you can follow with Nair or Bair. If they DI away you can keep dashing forward attempting to punish an aerial or airdodge. Shielding for avoiding aerials (if you get good at the timing it is not too uncommon to powershield them all the time).

Also, after lookig at match 2, I noticed that whole set you use SH Dair quite a lot for many situations and DDD got away with airdodging or shielding many of them. Do not forget to use Nair many times because it outlasts airdodge and is somewhat safe on shield because of the multiple hits. After landing you can try to go into some more shield pressure or simply get away.

Sooo falco critique thread is dead so I'm going to leave this here:

First thing : you're campy and unsafe at the same time. Mostly in game 1 and it gets better in games 2 and 3 but it's still very present.
I mean, you made some strange decisions when in close quarters that could have lead to getting killed if your opponent had been more reactive.
Things like SHDLing right in front of your opponent or ending a phantasm next to him are things that can be punished so hard they're not worth trying.

Also abuse FHTLs against platform campers and jab more.

Other than that it's alright

I fear it will be just another topic that does not get much attention. Falco boards are dead as far as anything productful happening.

I feel as if any frame data stuff I test is useless too. The only thing it does for me is show how great all of falco's moves are.
