+artrimiks he is a top 5 fox player and a top 20 player in the world. If he enters a lot this year (he didn't last year because of hand and sleeping problems) then he could be a top 10 player
Moonwalking is somewhat important, it adds the ability to go deep offstage for a backair and is one of the quickest ways to grab the ledge from the other side of the stage. It also serves well as a movement mixup. People greatly underestimate how usefull a good timed moonwalk can be, although extensive use will get you punished. Captain Falcon is all about movement, that is his main strength, saying that a movement option is not very important for Falcon is saying that shine is unimportant for Fox and Falco. Kira, pls
It's not essential but if you watch high level Melee, Falcons occasionally use it to cover more distance. I can't remember any examples off the top of my head though, if that indicates exactly how unimportant it is. Just another mix-up approach, which is exactly where Falcon's strength lies anyway so it's definitely useful to a degree.
Just starting to get into melee as far as competitive/technical-wise, and C Falcon is definitely one of the easier for me to practice advanced techniques.
1:00 "loses to high priority moves." Pretty much every move in the game, aside from Fox' f smash and a few others, lose if they are "outprioritized". That means that they deal at least 9 damage less than the other attack, resulting that you "clang" and the other attack will just go through it and hit you. That is all that "priority" means.
you know you have to do one of these for sheik, jigglypuff, peach, and ice climbers too right? i love this series of "which character are you?" videos in particular, i can't wait to see those other characters. these are super well done, look nice, informative, the works. good job man.
I love n0ne's Falcon too. Sadly though he said on twitter that he's getting carpal tunnel playing Falcon all the time so he may have to play more Ganondorf.
Owain FireEmblem Yeah his Ganon's cool but I only really like Ganon in small doses. His Falcon seemed to fit his playstyle perfectly. Also why do you say S2J is overrated?
Well that can be chalked up to a combination of Falcon's survivability, the fact they were playing on Dreamland, and that Marth has basically no way to kill someone except for a raw Fsmash at that percent.
I want to get into mele but other than it being an older title theres no online multiplayer, I dont know any locations to go out and play mele with the community and id rather do it in the comfort of my own home, which is why I hope for mele HD remake with online multiplayer and no combat rebalance.
Captain Falcon is your main if: - You suck at wavedashing - You're good at dash dancing/moonwalking - You like tech chasing - You like dittos - You want to survive to 200%+ on Dream Land
I know this is a very specific request, but could you do one on the Falco/Peach matchup? I main falco and secondary Peach, and on both sides I have a lot of trouble with it. As Falco its not too common to have to go against someone with better combo game in the matchup, and combined with how floaty she is it makes it really combo her. On the other hand as Peach, it can be very hard to deal with lasers getting rid of your float, and recovery, and it makes it almost impossible to approach. I know you covered the combo game aspect of peach vs fast fallers, but its the neutral that gets really hard for peach.
+Owain FireEmblem Sheik is for you if: You love having no creativity in your combos You love to DI in on all of Falcons aerials then cry about being air wobbled You love complaining about your character when you have one losing matchup sheik is 1 dimensional as fuck and her dash dance sucks everyone who plays her just bitches constantly you have to be a fucking masochist to play this character
So after a long time practicing with Falcon, I can moonwalk, scar jump, walljump recovery, l cancel all of his moves, ledgedash and I can even sacred combo good. The only problem is the ledgestall. I can do it, but not consistently to the point of constant invincibility. Guess I have to keep practicing.
A_DutchGamer Have you tried using the bunny hood in training mode and 1/4 speed? Then gradually increasing the speed and without the bunny hood? That's how I did it anyways.
+Jay Gryska It's not that. There are a ton of disrespectful and unneeded swaggy things to take advantage of when styling on people. Wizzrobe goes for the optimal shit, most of what he does doesn't look cool at all.
+pielord177 I would say Samus is the second best, but as a Luigi main I guess I'm kinda biased. Also, there's not a lot of Samus mains in my region, so I don't have a lot of expreience
I would like to know, I love watching and playing Captain Falcon, One of my favorite Characters In melee Of all time, But everyone is saying he is not Viable Character and is never seen much in finals or winning tournaments. So is Captain Falcon viable And worth my my time?(I hope) BTW great job of the videos btw. Keep up the good work
Kira did state in a video regarding the most underrated characters in the game that he doesn't understand how people can say that he can't win a major.
*Shows table of Falcon's matchups* *Has disadvantage against Jigglypuff, even MU against Pikachu* *Kira:* _Goes on to explain that Pikachu gives Falcon trouble but Jigglypuff MU is even at worst, if not in Falcon's favour_ Might wanna use a different table to back up your argument lol
Falcon is your main if:
- You like walking up slowly
- You like Down Smashes
- You like giving Hax horrifying flashbacks
YO! DID HE JUST WALK UP SLOWLY... AND SPIT FACTS?
Falcon is your main if:
-You are Mang0
-You want to be Mang0
Ironic because Falcon has a horrible downsmash
Samus is your main if:
You hate leffen
+YouGotCyrekt lmao
Cyrekt r
Jigglypuff seawting
Hax watchin this like "Nah."
+UltimateBROS25 ROFL
+UltimateBROS25 lmaoooo. has hax placed any better since he dropped falcon?
+artrimiks not really but he's beaten several players he never touched with falcon now that he has fox.
+artrimiks he did win a major (Do You Fox Wit it?) and has taken sets off of Mang0 and M2K, along with taking Armada to a game 5
+artrimiks he is a top 5 fox player and a top 20 player in the world. If he enters a lot this year (he didn't last year because of hand and sleeping problems) then he could be a top 10 player
No feeling beats playing Captain Falcon when your at the top of your game. Its complete bliss and you feel invincible.
I think you forgot some0ne...
corny what?
Wait, are you talking about N0ne?

yes, b0nd

How to play falcon:
Have a back up fox
And then be like Hax and give up on falcon completely
+Graham Jeffe How to play Falcon:
L R A Start Fox
~Hax$
+Graham Jeffe backup marth is a lot better
+Grakkis Ayy true. Falcon is good against characters Marth struggles against.
I can't moonwalk so I'm not ready for falcon yet.
i cant moonwalk either. not very important for falcon
SSBM Tutorials It's important to style! But no, I know that in reality it isn't necessary.
+Lmsln how to play falcon: moonwalk

How to play Falcon- "LRA start fox" -HAx$
N0ne should be on the famous players list.
BX Souljah Scar isai
so should gravy and gahtzu
Every falcon is famous, it's implied
yay all i gotta do is switch to falcon and ill be famous
W33dlord with that 4 stock all falcon punches
"hax$ (rip)"
2:09
That Falcon kick is just as hilarious as Ike's failed recovery from off of the map
Captain Falcon is your main if - you never want to win a major
+captintoonlink or if you don't mind not winning a mayor
+captintoonlink I'd rather just enjoy playing the game than win a major. Go as far as I can go with a character I enjoy,
It's funny that so many people act like they can win a major, when it's just 6 ppl in particular
Not anymore, Wizzrobe won Smash ‘N’ Splash 5
Lol
Just starting to get into melee as far as competitive/technical-wise, and C Falcon is definitely one of the easier for me to practice advanced techniques.
You missed the part about his air wobble -> rest.
+@SDAshkon Smash LAUDANDUUUUUUUUUUUUUS
@Chris Swollenballs
*Overdue r/whoosh
I faced this amazing falcon at a tournament, I tippered him as marth on yoshis story at around 90%. It was crazy
*also he lived, forgot to put that in lol
I would love a "Are You a Pichu Player?"
1:00 "loses to high priority moves."
Pretty much every move in the game, aside from Fox' f smash and a few others, lose if they are "outprioritized". That means that they deal at least 9 damage less than the other attack, resulting that you "clang" and the other attack will just go through it and hit you.
That is all that "priority" means.
There's more to it than that, but I get your point
OliverNOW Yeah, I know. I just wanted to point out, that priority in melee isn't what many think it is.
you know you have to do one of these for sheik, jigglypuff, peach, and ice climbers too right? i love this series of "which character are you?" videos in particular, i can't wait to see those other characters. these are super well done, look nice, informative, the works. good job man.
you forgot to mention n0ne at the end!!! He's by far my favorite falcon :(
+LloydFreakingIrving n0ne is the most stylish falcon in the world, except for maybe Jeapie. S2J's falcon is so overrated
I love n0ne's Falcon too. Sadly though he said on twitter that he's getting carpal tunnel playing Falcon all the time so he may have to play more Ganondorf.
LukeMM95 That sucks. Oh well, his ganon is hype too
Owain FireEmblem Yeah his Ganon's cool but I only really like Ganon in small doses. His Falcon seemed to fit his playstyle perfectly. Also why do you say S2J is overrated?
+LukeMM95 he says s2j is overrated to be contrarian
Survivability only 4/5? Falcon is literally the hardest to kill in the entire game. (KDJ vs Gravy)
Well that can be chalked up to a combination of Falcon's survivability, the fact they were playing on Dreamland, and that Marth has basically no way to kill someone except for a raw Fsmash at that percent.
So how did KDJ manage to take 3 stocks off Gravy without dying himself first?
+Kevin O'Malley Definitely not the hardest to kill lol
+SSBM Tutorials He is gimped very easily, I exaggerated a bit at "hardest to kill." He is very heavy and a fastfaller and lives FOREVER on dreamland.
his recovery doesn't sweet spot the ledge,he's a fast faller and dream land is a counter pick.
I want to get into mele
but other than it being an older title
theres no online multiplayer, I dont know any locations to go out and play mele with the community and id rather do it in the comfort of my own home, which is why I hope for mele HD remake with online multiplayer and no combat rebalance.

For a person like me who's never played smash melee competitive this video is very interesting. Im now really interested in getting back in to melee.

please more of those "Are you a .... Player", videos. :3
Lets be honest every one whants to be a Falcon player
I dont
+Eternal Blasphemy Hax is that you
+OfDaSouth ya
+Eternal Blasphemy how can you not it's so hype
Red Blaze X Just doesn't fit my playstyle I think. I main sheik but I also enjoy fox/falco.
this is my favorite video series on this channel
On the power part: Dsmash is surprisingly strong for killing
Still waiting for a video on Pichu
J E A P I E B O Y Z
RIP Hax
Please do Next
Are you a Shiek Player?
Are you a Jigglypuff Player?
Are you a Peach Player?
Are you a Ice Climbers Player?
I was waiting for this video for so long

The first time i watched this is wasnt very familiar with the scene, i literally thought Hax$ was someone who died lol
I love the rip after hax
"Are you a Shiek player"
You are a sheik player if you:
Hate having fun
Love being edge-guarded
Like being cheered against
+Owain FireEmblem "Are you lame and hate yourself? Then Sheik is for you!"
+Graham Jeffe You sure that's Shiek? Sounds an awful lot like Puff as well
+Owain FireEmblem
Sheik is for you if:

You love to DI in on all of Falcons aerials then cry about being air wobbled
You love complaining about your character when you have one losing matchup
sheik is 1 dimensional as fuck and her dash dance sucks everyone who plays her just bitches constantly you have to be a fucking masochist to play this character
Sonoshi731 and here is the sheik player trying to pin the blame on another character
Kirby is your main if:
you like being "that guy"
I was a Kirby main but I switched to Falco.
-if you want to make Crimson Blur look bad
I just love Falcon for that sweet sweet knee outta nowhere.
So after a long time practicing with Falcon, I can moonwalk, scar jump, walljump recovery, l cancel all of his moves, ledgedash and I can even sacred combo good. The only problem is the ledgestall.

He's not disrespectful, it's just his most optimal/best stuff is very swaggy/cool.
+Jay Gryska It's not that. There are a ton of disrespectful and unneeded swaggy things to take advantage of when styling on people. Wizzrobe goes for the optimal shit, most of what he does doesn't look cool at all.
He has really good pun-ishes
Can you make one of these for Luigi? Best midtier IMO
+Tarmon2121 I would disagree and say that's Samus
+pielord177 I would say Samus is the second best, but as a Luigi main I guess I'm kinda biased. Also, there's not a lot of Samus mains in my region, so I don't have a lot of expreience
+pielord177 in terms of results, then yes samus is but luigi right now seems to be on the move up thanks to abate
+Graham Jeffe but Duck at dreamhack tho
+Tarmon2121 Samus is definitely better than Luigi, Wouldn't call Samus a Mid-tier.
There really arent many tutorials for Falcon on this channel, Where can we look outside of here for wanting to learn to use Falcon?
Include gahtzu and gravy, theyre the whole reason s2j is doing so good lately
Puts hax on list of falcons, no gahtzu
thank you for doing the "are you a Captain Falcon player"
I almost cried when I saw the RIP sign beside Hax$.
nobody: ...
C. Falcon mains: *show me ya moves!*
You should do are you a Gannondorf main.
Can you do a *Are You a Roy Player?* :)
Awesome video like always.
Hey Kira, you plan on completing this series eventually, right? Or just the competitively viable ones? Or just the top 8? Or what? :o
my body has been waiting for this
this is one of your best yet keep it up. p.s rip hax$
Luigi player... Maybe, please
Isai is the reason i even want to play. regardless that he left melee forever ago. Isai is the reason. no one else matters
basically the Sagat of the series
I've mained Falcon since the first Smash game
Do you plan on doing these for the whole roster, or just the high tiers?
That feel when HAX isn't listed as a falcon main. RIP
God damn S2J looks good in that picture
@SSBM Tutorials you forgot the most noteworthy falcon of them all: The Batman
Lol the hax mention at the end
Isn't warlock punch more lethal than falcon punch?
scar look like agent hotchner fr
How to play Captain Falcon? "Don't Get Hit."
Please do Peach next!!
4:21 S2J is smiling...
Captain falcon is your main if:
You switch to blue fox
Damn captain falcon is perfect for me
I would like to know, I love watching and playing Captain Falcon, One of my favorite Characters In melee Of all time, But everyone is saying he is not Viable Character and is never seen much in finals or winning tournaments.

crazy how much changes in 5 years
Falcon is your main if you wanna show them your moves
pls Do ics next
*Sees SilentSpectre on famous Falcons list*
: )
Maybe change "Hax$ (RIP)" to "Hax$ (Ret.)". He may be off the Smash radar while his hand heals, but throwing RIP in there could be misleading.
Kira you should one of these videos on samus. I believe she is a high tier right behind falcon.
4:24 rip hax$ you will be missed
Who doesn't want to be Douglas?
Who is here after wizzrobe one a major against A PUFF with captain falcon
Are you a Ganon player next pls.
*Shows table of Falcon's matchups*
*Has disadvantage against Jigglypuff, even MU against Pikachu*
*Kira:* _Goes on to explain that Pikachu gives Falcon trouble but Jigglypuff MU is even at worst, if not in Falcon's favour_
Might wanna use a different table to back up your argument lol
Please do more of these
You should play Falcon if:
You care way more about hype than winning
maybe a video on waveshining? (with fox?)
nice video :D. we need a peach one!!
OH, MY BOY
they did hax dirty at the end lol
Omg this made my day!😄
You're a Falcon player if:
You want a shitty recovery.
You end up maining a spacy.
You like memes.
You want to JV5 a Kirby Player.
There is no thing such as "Falcon players" EVERYONE LOVES FALCON
How tf is this guy so good
I'm definitley a Captain Falcon kinda guy

Please, whats the sound effect used at 0:23 that plays at every begining of the videos ?
SHOUTOUTS TO ALL THE FALCON LIFERS OUT THERE....I LIVE THIS SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
-Legoman
