Videos breaking down what actually makes one move so good are a cool idea. It's something you learn intuitively by playing the game enough, yet made easy to understand for those who haven't

Really amazing video! One other part that wasn’t covered: due to Falcon’s amazing aerial drift, not only does he get the option to overshoot really far with up airs, but he also gets the ability to retreat. Doing a dash forward drift forward SH up air to catch an opponent on platform is great, but if they call it out, they can shield punish the endlag. Falcon can mitigate this by doing a dash forward into drift back instant up air, which both covers the platform in front of you while also moving away from your opponent during the end lag of the attack.

Cool video! Although I have to admit I clicked because I thought the thumbnail was falcon's getup attack and was ready to have my mind blown somehow. Upair makes a bit more sense

This video made me think about how the Captain has a bad matchup vs. Fox and Falco partially because their short hops are so low, and they don't need to jump as far into vulnerable airspace in order to attack him with aerials

Definitely noticed the huge difference between Wizz and aspiring falcon players before him (aside from chain grabs and tech chases) this guy is ALWAYS using his up air, even inches from the ground just to try to scoop and attempt to pop his opponent up for more aerial punishment.

@user-nm9yd4wq4s 3 ай бұрын

Fiction played Sheik at Big House 11 for fun, and made a tweet about wizzy "air wobbling" him. I didn't understand it completely at the time, but I can assume he meant Wizzrobe stuffed out his platform movement with up-air. Denying his game plan and finding easy stocks. great video 👍

@Minwu325 3 ай бұрын

air wobbling is more about how all falcon's aerials combo into eachother (especially upair into a few more upairs or a knee)

The example sets you chose were really excellent as well, I liked that you demonstrated how the counterplay can be actually be seen and measured, rather than just picking a set where some Falcon goes crazy juggling someone

I've moved on mostly to other fighting games but if I get back into Smash bros again I'll keep this in mind.
