Line 5: Line 5:
Falco performs the Fire Bird, cloaking himself in fire, before launching off in any direction. It is a very poor recovery move, having long startup, small and weak hitboxes, and when compared to [[SSB4|Fox]]'s Fire Fox, it travels noticeably less distance. Due to these traits, Falco becomes very susceptible to [[gimp]]ing, and combined with his side special also being an easily telegraphed recovery move, Falco's recovery is quite weak.

Fire Bird can be mixed up somewhat, via altering angles slightly or b reversing the move to shift momentum during the start, thus being able to possibly dodge attacks. Fire Bird as an attack is very weak, with poorly connecting multi-hits and a final hit that has very weak knockback growth, and thus is generally never used as an attack.
