However, due to this reliance on spacing, DP will usually drop combos that similarly-skilled Falcos would not. This makes his punish game weak for his level, and gives him serious problems against players who can beat him in the neutral game but have a much more lethal punish game, such as {{Sm|Mew2King}}. Additionally, due to his reliance on guaranteed KO setups and edgeguards, he struggles if the opponent lives up to a high percentage where those setups are no longer available to him. DP is also weak in matchups against [[floaty]] characters, and used to be notoriously poor at playing around the {{SSBM|Ice Climbers}} and [[wobbling]]. | However, due to this reliance on spacing, DP will usually drop combos that similarly-skilled Falcos would not.
