Silent Nightmare Same problem here too. I'm trying to PP with Tilt Stick holding down shoulder button attack, but it doesn't seem to work. I've researched it watching videos and going on sites, but it doesn't seem to work like that. I think it's pretty useless. I don't see any advantages in Bidou-tilt. I don't know what are the "basics things" Fatality says they help in.
+Jmash324 It's because at low skill levels, falcon has a dash grab that is difficult to deal with [for players who dont know how] as well as quick smash attacks with a decent amount of power. This makes people think that hes easy to pick up and play well because they dont actually know how to fight him. However, once you start to get decent with the game, he becomes much easier to deal with so players stop saying this as much. Basically, falcon isn't too difficult to pick up, but VERY hard to play at a high level. Most [experienced] players can play falcon at a decent level after only putting in a couple of days into the char, but it takes years to make him good at the top skill level.
Silent Nightmare just because zero won the ditto doesn't mean he's a better falcon. He is better at the game in general and that helps him in the match more than just skill with falcon
vyQ he's too honest IMO. Really fundamental, and his neutral is too reliant on getting grabs. This is coming from a Dark Pit main. But at least I feel like I have more options in the neutral.
Another useful combo. From 0% - 10%, down throw, to neutral air, to footstool, to down air reset. One of my most used combos. Not many people know about this.
beats me man. not to mention he has one of the best neutrals in the game, some of the best OOS punishes, great MUs against a ton of top tiers, and lemons completely shut down most of the cast lol
Woo! Falcon is very dependant on combos, and captain falcon, being very fast and strong but having no projectiles, fits my playstyle. i didnt know anything about combos so this helps alot, thank you!
You could also do a D-throw > N-air > U-air > Fastfall > U-tilt on heavyweights on early percent but is not guaranteed. Also, D-throw > N-air > Footstool > D-air is guaranteed at early percent. Hope this helps you STYLISH Falcons out there :D
Waddle Dee tell.wtf It's a website where you can transform text into a bunch of different fonts And I am indeed everywhere so be sure to like my comments
Fatality, you know PP is indeed the future of ssb4, so happy to hear that line come from you!, means you truly understand the potency of pp in neutral, and that's sadly something Sol has yet to realize...
Pyrospower Yeah, if you're on for glory where people can't tech because they're scrubs or just because lag. There's a reason you rarely see Fatality do it. But you're right.
You actually can't bidou perfect pivot with the controls scheme I showed on screen. I made the correction in the description. Going to look into the control set up with tilt stick more, then add it in the description. Sorry about that.
This is why I love Fatality. He isn't all "Yeah! Falcon is super macho man and he's on fire" type of Falcon main. *He is smart.* He knows exactly how to play Captain Falcon and all the tips and tricks he has. Possibly even more than Larry Lurr knowing how to play Fox or Abadango with Mewtwo. Yes he can bring up lots of hype, but that's literally only because he plays Falcon. And even though I hate watching Falcon in community montages due to how common he takes the spotlight, he's one of my favourites in Top level play. And that's largely because of Fatality.
The most honest character. Imagine if in Smash 5 he could cancel his falcon punch like Ryu can. Or if his D-air had half the landing lag. Or if he could cancel arial falcon kick into a raptor boost. Would Falcon be top tier?
I think Falcon Punch cancelling is too powerful, it can kill you at 60% (not reversed) and it being is more intimidation that Falcon doesn't need. However I think he should be able to cancel Falcon Kick in some form or fashion to make it safe (perhaps make it a combo starter too?). That'll fix Falcon's problem with approaching and give Falcon kick purpose
Ti.G BS I’ve always been saying this, but grounded Falcon Kick should be able to be jumped out of when you stop moving, and aerial Falcon Kick should be like Wrastor’s from Rivals of Aether (Better landing option, better combo tool, can be used for ladder combos if you’re stupidly good at Falcon, etc.)
Fatality speaks very intelligently I never even knew! Definitely one of my favorite players! I main Marth/Lucina and secondary Falcon but I also have 0 intention of competing so it works for me lol I like watching the game more than anything!
Nr Shocks It's up to preferences. My Smash Corner covers that in his best controller scheme guide. Tap jump on and tap jump off each have their own pros and cons and its up to the player to decide which one suits them better.
Any way we could get a video about that tilt stick set to attack bidou? I've been wanting to switch, but i play swordy's and attack tilt stick is really nice for them
This series is fantastic! Can you do other characters like this, meticulously put together with an interview alongside it? I would love to see Cloud and whoever you deem to interview as a "very very good Cloud player"
This is an AMAZING guide, but I wish you could give more information about the knee like: How to land it Moves that combo into it Where it's best to use
![7 tips TO IMPROVE Your Captain Falcon [Smash 4]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/KFUiM8hDtrg/mqdefault.jpg)
Fantastic video, I really loved the meticulous attention to detail, how you put all of it together, and it's extremely accurate to boot.
Cheers!
FatalityFalcon I like falcons dair because if your opponent airdodges instant knee
same problem here.
Silent Nightmare Same problem here too. I'm trying to PP with Tilt Stick holding down shoulder button attack, but it doesn't seem to work.
I've researched it watching videos and going on sites, but it doesn't seem to work like that. I think it's pretty useless. I don't see any advantages in Bidou-tilt. I don't know what are the "basics things" Fatality says they help in.
Everyone is cheering for you Fatality. You are the new hero for smash 4 and I know you can win Evo or the next super major!!!!
FatalityFalcon wuts falcons best stage not including dreamland on 2ds/3ds
fatality sounds smart as hell
sizzle9000 well I think he's an astrophysicist sooooooo
sizzle9000 Watch his video on brain types. He sounds like he's from another planet with his form of speech.
sizzle9000 He's the Sheldon Cooper of Smash 4
Rod Gee Rs Rip Dabuz?
lol, this destroy ZeRo's 1 hour falcon guide in just 19 minutes, this vid is pure gold for falcon mains
Jeovany Godoy Zero's Falcon guide was shit, and drawn out, and everything was explained terribly.
Jeeses99 Absolutely
agreed
zero's vid gets so boring to watch after 10 minutes
Thomas K Too much stuttering and reiteration. he's horrible at describing stuff
exactly
A very very good Falcon player... more like the best Falcon lol.
DarkestShadow lol he probably didn't want to trigger ZeRo XD
Joey Lumer even zero says he's da bess.
DarkestShadow zeros falcon is good but fatality is out of his league with matchup knowledge
DarkestShadow not the best... FXF is the best
Falcon X Falcon is the hero the people need, but not what they deserve.
I love listening to stuff I won't understand.
Ikr never gonna use this shit cause i suck
Star Jigglypuff one day you will. I used to be clueless on smash tech as well
Star Jigglypuff did I not just find you on Ninkendo, Sherwood, and another smashtuber???!!!!!
A Captain Falcon Main maybe...
Learn.
0:15 biggest understatement I have ever heard in my life!
its amazing that after so many years you continue to post these
忍珠杏美波 Well cause smash 4 meta isn't going anywhere anytime soon
忍珠杏美波 His viewership hasn't had any steep declines and there's plenty of content left to cover so why wouldn't he?
Yes now I can finally become better with my main!
A Captain Falcon Main hi
Dillon Smith hello!
A Captain Falcon Main Where as a humble zard main like myself will probably never see a video 😭😭
YeS!!
Ran LOL
The best Falcon player said Falcon is a hard character. Finally.
I'm tired of people saying this character is too easy
+Jmash324 It's because at low skill levels, falcon has a dash grab that is difficult to deal with [for players who dont know how] as well as quick smash attacks with a decent amount of power.
This makes people think that hes easy to pick up and play well because they dont actually know how to fight him. However, once you start to get decent with the game, he becomes much easier to deal with so players stop saying this as much.

Yeah, that's probably a better way of wording it.
hes easy up until high tier level of play. At medium to low tier play hes really easy to play.
Jmash324 falcon is super easy in this game lol go play melee
Yeah it is near useless to secondary him in top play.
I'm blown away of how knowledgeable Fatality is. No wonder he's the best Captain Falcon
the TRUE best falcon player in the world! take notes ZeRo!
bitch it all bout FXF
He is number one dude.
yo dude your propic is dying of terminal cancer :''''((((
Silent Nightmare just because zero won the ditto doesn't mean he's a better falcon. He is better at the game in general and that helps him in the match more than just skill with falcon
awesome like always! I always say Falcon in Smash 4 can beat anyone but can also lose to anyone! You could almost say an honest character c:
vyQ he's too honest IMO. Really fundamental, and his neutral is too reliant on getting grabs. This is coming from a Dark Pit main. But at least I feel like I have more options in the neutral.
OMFG FATALITY?! i love you MSC
DESTRUC----
D--
CGI Smash Go to Aon friday
lol
Another useful combo. From 0% - 10%, down throw, to neutral air, to footstool, to down air reset. One of my most used combos. Not many people know about this.
This was a very good video! Fatality had a lot of insight and I have more respect for Falcon mains now.
Luigi combos & neutral ft. Elegant!!!
or Mr. Con Con
Dirty Dan Mr con con isn't as good as elegant
This interview was top tier. Great questions and fatality seemed super confident and prepared.
When the interview is far better than MSC's tutorial video itself.
Fatality interviews are top tier!
I love how MSC responds to Fatality's answers with "alright"
18:12
What I'm Expecting
"You're damn right I'm showing faith."
"I'm trying"
Such a modest guy
we need my boy Mega Man to make an appearance in this series.
Someone needs to show my man ZeRo he's not 28 on the tier list :]
EnergyPantsSmash nah we both need duck hunt
EnergyPantsSmash I would like Kirby
I already made a Kirby Tips and Tricks if you're interested! I've even been called "a worse My Smash Corner" xD
EnergyPantsSmash
Didn't Mega man curbstomp everyone and nearly won last year's EVO? Why the hell would Zero think he's low tier?
beats me man. not to mention he has one of the best neutrals in the game, some of the best OOS punishes, great MUs against a ton of top tiers, and lemons completely shut down most of the cast lol
Fatality is the smash 4 version of Hax$, when he was a Falcon
Yes! I've been waiting for this video for so long! Thanks MySmashCorner!
I don't get many opportunities to type with one hand often. Thank you.
ThirtyfourEC ROFL
Smash Corner: "Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us."
Fatality: "Thank you."
Woo! Falcon is very dependant on combos, and captain falcon, being very fast and strong but having no projectiles, fits my playstyle. i didnt know anything about combos so this helps alot, thank you!
I don’t usually like videos but man!!! this explanation was awesome, I appreciate all the effort you put on the videos you make.
You could also do a D-throw > N-air > U-air > Fastfall > U-tilt on heavyweights on early percent but is not guaranteed.
Also, D-throw > N-air > Footstool > D-air is guaranteed at early percent. Hope this helps you STYLISH Falcons out there :D

DawnRoy Fire YES Please!
Tyrese Playz Gamez - *with Intro
Right now, I hold polls on my Patreon for which character should be done next. Charizard is interesting, and I'd definitely want to cover him.
My Smash Corner Unfortunately I am not rich :/
My Smash Corner What do you mean? I didn't understand.
sorry.
did you know captain falcon has a gun?
TuMadre8000 bayonets gets to use hers and he doesn't get to use his :(
+Jgordan775 That's because falcon doesn't need a gun to bring the knee of justice.
He's way to cool to use a gun
he would be top tier rip
Oh god imagine falcon with a decent projectile
Fatality, you know PP is indeed the future of ssb4, so happy to hear that line come from you!, means you truly understand the potency of pp in neutral, and that's sadly something Sol has yet to realize...
*dash grab -> forward throw -> lock is a nice mixup at 0%*
Pyrospower Yeah, if you're on for glory where people can't tech because they're scrubs or just because lag. There's a reason you rarely see Fatality do it. But you're right.
Very insightful stuff from Fatality, as expected of the best falcon player.
Captain Falcon is only barely high tier because Falcon players are garbage. Fatality's back must hurt so much trying to carry this character.
Your opinion, m8.
And I'm here, with my Wii Classic Controller, with Falcon as my main. Nice video.
FJ RC You use a Wii Pro controller?
Last time I was this early.
Star Fox 2 was in development
Andres E. Gomez M. W
well played
Zeta Overdrive What?
Andres E. Gomez M. U getting the snes classic?
15:36 can someone please explain how setting a shoulder button to attack makes perfect pivoting easier? i don't get it.
Yeah, I've been tring to search for videos explaining it but I don't quite get it myself. We need a MSC video on Ghetto Bidou.
CaseyCJL hold the attack shoulder button and then use the control sticks like regular bidou
DarkenedHalo115 didn't work
You actually can't bidou perfect pivot with the controls scheme I showed on screen. I made the correction in the description. Going to look into the control set up with tilt stick more, then add it in the description. Sorry about that.
Hell yes, it's about damn time for My Smash Corner to finally show us his moves!
Forgot:
Knee > show me your moves
And
Falcon punch > no contest
Both true combos
Man, Fatality sounds like such a chill guy to hang out with.
This is why I love Fatality. He isn't all "Yeah! Falcon is super macho man and he's on fire" type of Falcon main. *He is smart.* He knows exactly how to play Captain Falcon and all the tips and tricks he has. Possibly even more than Larry Lurr knowing how to play Fox or Abadango with Mewtwo. Yes he can bring up lots of hype, but that's literally only because he plays Falcon. And even though I hate watching Falcon in community montages due to how common he takes the spotlight, he's one of my favourites in Top level play. And that's largely because of Fatality.
wow it sounds like he would make a great secondary!

Even though I am not interested in playing this character, I found this really interesting and fun to watch
TLDR Falcon is a master tactition who gets more information as the game progresses then becomes 20undefined steps ahead of you.
"main or bust" LOOKING AT YOU, ZERO
I have never been more determined to be good with Captain Falcon when I saw some of fatalities matches.
fatality sounds really well spoken and passionate, what a classy guy :o
15:51 What is Tilt Stick Bidou, how do you use it, and what can you do with it?
Thank you for blessing us Falcons mains with this xD
Damn that whole interview with Fatality was so motivating
this guy has ascended further beyond a normal falcon main
Fatality speaks very intelligently I never even knew! Definitely one of my favorite players! I main Marth/Lucina and secondary Falcon but I also have 0 intention of competing so it works for me lol I like watching the game more than anything!
lol i dont think anyone should use tapjump
Nr Shocks There's really no disadvantage with playing with it on.
(i mean besides the reason fatality stated)
Nr Shocks It's up to preferences. My Smash Corner covers that in his best controller scheme guide. Tap jump on and tap jump off each have their own pros and cons and its up to the player to decide which one suits them better.
Nr Shocks Same
DankyDon't with tap jump on it makes it significantly harder to use an up tilt or a short hop anything
Pointyrook look at zero
I've never heard Fatality speak before now. I like him. He seems levelheaded.
nicely conducted interview as always 👍👍
My favorite thing about TH-cam is getting that notification from MSC.
I love how Fatality describes things
Thank you Fatality, you're a huge inspiration
I'm gonna make an updated video on the pseudo-bidou soon. All I have right now is that phone recording lol
Omfg i was waiting for this! My falcon about to be crispier than bacon cooked in a skillet
15:50 How do I activate Bidou-tilt? I've set a shoulder button to Attack but it's not working for me like Bidou normally works.
after watching this I feel so smart, I feel like... all the knowledge from falcon is inside of me now
*Mute City starts playing getting progressively louder*
amazing video, now i can improve my falcon!
liked before watching the actual vid. MSC I love these series
this video is literally an answer to my prayers
I learned about a year ago that at 0% (also works in Brawl) that Side-B -> Up-B will almost always work for Falcon
Such a helpful guide. Love Fatality Imao
I'd love to see one of these videos for King Dedede. Keep up the great work!
"Fatality, who's a very very good falcon player"
He dethroned ZeRo. Just call him the best.
Now a Ryu Combos & Neutral video, please! Excellent insight on Falcon btw.
because we really needed this.
Here's me already feeling like a beast landing 2 up airs with falcon
fatality condemning the pocket falcon once and for all
Any way we could get a video about that tilt stick set to attack bidou? I've been wanting to switch, but i play swordy's and attack tilt stick is really nice for them
My main and my idol?! He's right when he says, "Main or bust"!!!
Oh my that new mic changes everything
His answers are too good holy crap
This series is fantastic! Can you do other characters like this, meticulously put together with an interview alongside it? I would love to see Cloud and whoever you deem to interview as a "very very good Cloud player"
Can we please get a zss in depth strategy guide? She’s one of the characters that you havent covered yet and I think it’d be awesome!
Not sure if you're going for ASMR, but I feel like you're so close to the mic that you're basically eating it 🤣
I don't normally comment, especially here, but this video is AMAZING and I think commenting helps the creator. So thanks!
I'd love to see Toon Link next. I love the series!
*Even more* falcons will be on for glory now. I'm not complaining.
I still yet don't appreciate how fast falcon is. I think he's fast because of the speedy nature of f-zero. Man I miss that series
Hoping to see more vids like this in the near future.
I've been waiting for this forever, please do one with Mario/Luigi
Down taunt to running ledge grab to foot stole to down air, true combo
This is an AMAZING guide, but I wish you could give more information about the knee like:
How to land it
Moves that combo into it
Where it's best to use

Thank you for this! I love Falcon
Captain falcon hasn't even begun to peak yet
"don't secondary him"
don't tell me how to live my life :
If there is one thing in this world I have learned it is that very few thing are a fun as a good falcon ditto.
Hey MySmashCorner, could you do a video about Corrins instant dragon lunge I've seen countless videos about? I can't seem to replicate it
this video is so satisfying to watch
