Captain Falcon: Difference between revisions

Captain Falcon ranks 7th on the ''Melee'' [[Smash Back Room]] [[tier list]]. Captain Falcon remains the most manoeuvrable character in the game, with the fastest running speed which lends itself to a fast and long [[Dash-dancing|dash-dance]] as well as a short hop that can cover great distances, a high falling speed, and the longest [[moonwalk]]. This complements his attacks well, particularly his aerial attacks: his [[forward aerial]], called the [[Knee Smash]], is a powerful, low-trajectory finisher, and his aerial attacks in general are low-lag and good at comboing in tandem with his [[throw]]s. Despite this strong aerial moveset, Falcon's ground attacks are generally slow and lack range, which is exacerbated by his lack of [[projectile]]s. Captain Falcon is a [[fastfaller]] which lends him the game's highest resistance to attacks of vertical trajectory, making him resistant to upward KO's but vulnerable to combos. Since his up special can not attack targets who may be hanging on a ledge, he can be easily [[edge-guard]]ed.
