'''Falco''' is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' [[mod]] ''[[Smash Remix]]''. He was added into the mod in its v0.8.1 release on July 19, 2019. Initially, Falco completely replaced {{SSB|Fox}} due to it not being possible at the time to add new character slots into ''Smash 64''. With the release of v0.9 on October 28th of that year, however, it became possible for players to use both Falco and Fox in the mod. Prior to v2.0.0, {{SR|Slippy}} functioned as Falco's boss character, but has since been moved to the bonus characters section. | '''Falco''' is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' [[mod]] ''[[Smash Remix]]''.

His main difference from Fox is the fact that he does not have a projectile; instead, having the Falco Phantasm, his recovery has less startup time, but travels less, and his reflector launches upwards as in ''Melee''. | ||

Due to this, using shine immediately after jumping, a technique known as a [[pseudo-jump-cancel]], activates a frame 1 hitbox with little-to-no end lag. This technique can be very useful for extending combos and performing mindgames, and it can also immediately be followed up with many moves, such as aerials or another shine to rack up additional damage and continue a [[combo|ladder combo]] (this can also throw unwary opponents offguard). And it can also be used repeatedly on an opponent's shield to be a true [[shield break]]ing combo if done correctly. | ||

When using Falco | When using Falco's phantasm, if the special button is pressed again anywhere throughout the move, the distance he travels will be shortened or even cancelled entirely. This gives Falco more options and mix-up opportunities as well, especially useful for recovering. On top of all of this, mastering shortening can enable you to do more advanced things such as [[ledge-canceling]] platforms from different distances. | ||
