Smashboards[/url]]Falco: -Lasers and Phantasm is great for Camping. -Lasers and B-air go through MetaKnight's Tornado -Chaingrab is faster on racking damage against MetaKnight. -First hit of Nair stops Glide Attack, the rest hit through -Our jab and spotdodge make us a match for MetaKnight up close -No need to approach
MetaKnight: -Advantage over recovery -Advantage over aerials -D-air camping -Can easily hit through Phantasm -Tornado is great for Falco's recovery. -Kills more easily with Gimps, D-Smash, and Up-B

Member Perspectives:
[quote=HNG]MK has an advantage over Falco if the MK is aggro and like, doesn't let Falco camp, not allowing any space for lasers.
Sure, Falco can rack up damage with it's CG, but the thing is, if it can get a grab on MK in the first place. Good MK's usually don't get grabbed easily since Falco's grab range isn't that great, though it's decent. MK can just D-air, D-air, D-air camp, and still dodge lasers if Falco chooses to do that. MK doesn't even have to D-air camp to dodge lasers. He could just, Walk > Shield > Walk > Shield > Walk > and then usually, Falco decides to go to the other side of the stage, so you Nado. It's simple logic, really.
Nado > Falco. Erm, I don't really think B-air beats Nado, lol. Smart MK players don't just Nado from the other side of the stage towards Falco cause obviously, they can SHDL or laser or whatever they choose to do.
I don't get how Falco is 50-50 with MK. More like, 60-40 or something like that.[/quote] [quote=F200172853]If MK is at close range, and you don't have enough time to shield or ground laser, you can simply cancel tornado with Reflector.
Rack up some damage, by Walking CG, Walking CG, Running CG, D-air, Jab, Reflector. Even best if the MK rolls right into you, you can just F-smash.
If you're opponent isn't that smart, they will constantly approach the stage edge, with shuttle loop. When they use shuttle loop(Up-B), just time an Up-Smash, to kill them.
But keep in mind, some MK's can counter you easily.
I faced DracoBlaze, and HNG's MK. They're like the only one's who have completely just dominated my Falco. [/quote] [quote=HNG]Reflector doesnt necessarily always go through nado.. I'm not that sure. If I'm right, you can only knock MK out of his nado using reflector only when the startup frames of MKs nado begins. Almost any move goes through nado in the beginning frames of Nado. [/quote] [quote=Vibe]Bair rapes Dair camping though, and that's all he can do while flying over lasers.
Also just don't recover stupid and you should get through nado raping recoveries. Maybe you'll fall for 1-2 a match if you're good. [/quote]
