The Stairway to Heaven is a popular and easy combo with Captain Falcon in Smash 64, which consists of a series of up aerials leading to a Falcon Dive. The startup move varies, though it is usually initiated by a forward throw or an up smash, especially among less experienced Captain Falcon players. It is easiest to perform on Hyrule Castle, due to the three brown platforms allowing Falcon to combo the opponent to the top of the stage without having to be very precise with the timing of his up aerials.

More advanced versions of the combo may require a fair amount of technical skill in order to maximize the amount of up aerials and use the Falcon Dive at the highest possible altitude to get a KO.
