Overview

Falco Lombardi is a character from the StarFox series. He strives in close quarters where he can interrupt his opponent's offense with his own fast buttons that he can follow up with damaging combos, far reaching juggles and ambiguous resets.

He strives on stages with platforms were he can fully take advantage of the dragdown property of his neutral aerial and forward aerial, the sharking and shield poking potential of his up tilt and the ability to catch jump outs with his own full hop.

However, most of his offense isn't safe on shield and he will get punished for it if he doesn't keep his opponents guessing. Same can be said for his recovery that, while not particularly lacking in range or mix-up potential, is made of moves that are very easy to contest and interrupt.

Summary

Falco abuses his short range moves to combo his opponents and put them in very uncomfortable juggle positions
Pros	Cons
Buttons Worth Pressing: Falco's moveset is full of fast hitboxes made to interrupt his opponent's attacks and movement, giving him the advantage in close range speed battles, like up tilt, neutral air, forward air. Combo Fiend: With multiple combos starters including a throw and his far reaching side special, up air loops and dragdowns on platforms for combo extension or ambiguous resets, Falco has the tools to put his opponents in the blender and keep them there. He can rack up damage very quickly to the point where his strongly known back air setups will kill. Good Juggler: Falco has the best vertical burst range of the game. Thanks to his very high and quick jumps he will reach his opponents where they think they're too high up to be threatened, and he has the fall speed to extend his advantage and create feints and frame traps. Frame 1 Reflector: Though it's not useable in every matchup Falco's Shine, a fast disjointed hitbox that is also a frame 1 reflector, allows him to completely counter the base gameplan of some projectile heavy characters like Samus or R.O.B., forcing them out of their comfort zone.	Safety Issues: Even though most of Falco's moves aren't that unsafe on shield, they aren't that safe either and most of his offense will be punished if it's telegraphed. Limited Kill Window: Unlike many characters, Falco doesn't gain additional kill moves as his opponents reach higher percentages, aside from fresh down tilt. This makes killing awkward for him when his up tilt and down air setups stop working and the laser of his up throw and back throw stop connecting. Good Jugglee: Due to his low air mobility Falco will struggle to escape juggle situations, and his double jumps sends him so high up that it's basically a reset for the opponent. Bad vs Low Profiles: Up tilt, up smash, and SH neutral air all whiff on small characters or regular characters that crouch during their landing lag, heavily reducing his close range options in these situations.

Frame 2 Jab
Can jablock

A pretty good move to outspeed your opponent in RPS situations since there are very few faster attacks in the game, otherwise it's a move with low range, low damage and relatively long endlag.

A straight kick, its speed and range make it a pretty decent poke. It's supposedly unsafe on shield but since it's so fast your opponent can't react to it and has to anticipate it to be able to punish it.

Leads to RPS at low percents and tech chases at mid/high percents

A double overhead wing sweep. It's a good anti air and the keystone of Falco's combo game. Leads to almost nothing at 0% and then to almost everything afterwards, the most common combos being Uair chains, Fair dragdown extensions on platforms, and Bair/Uair kill confirms. It is also very good at shield poking as the back part of the second hit will shield poke tall opponents (but will whiff on shorter ones) and the top part will poke the feet of opponents standing on platforms above you.

A far reaching tail sweep. Falco's main grounded poke, one of his safest moves to throw out in neutral and his best spacing tool against small targets. It's a good combo starter at low and mid percents but its knockback scaling makes it stop working at high percents to slowly transition into a last resort killing move. It's also a decent shield poke setup as one Dtilt is enough shield damage to make reverse Utilt, SH Fair or Usmash shield poke if the opponent doesn't angle their shield up

Can 2 frame and hit opponents hanging on the ledge for even easier combos

Falco jumps forward with a lunging kick. The small burst of movement makes the move cover a range just outside of his regular pokes and helps keep his opponent in check. Its early hit can kill at very high percents and the late hit can setup juggles. It's unsafe on shield though, so it's better if used sparingly.

A double handed downward slash. Falco's most powerful kill option, but due to its poor range and without any way to set it up it has very limited uses. On top of the universal spotdodge/airdodge callout you can make the most of it by using Falco's leaning back during the startup to help your opponent whiff, or catch an unsuspecting opponent hanging on the ledge thanks to its low hitting hitbox.

A double upwards kick. It's fast, it's disjointed thanks to leg intangibility, it packs a decent kill power and most importantly it's active for 13 frames which is A LOT. All those characteristics make it a very potent anti air and OOS to punish rising aerials and cross up attempts, it's also pretty good at catching ledge getups and ledge jumps thanks to how active it is. The main downside of the move is that it starts very high, making it whiff on small and crouching characters.

Falco's first spinning multi hit aerial. It's very fast as it comes out on frame 3, making it a good OOS option. It hits both behind and in front of Falco, though the rear hit can be hard to connect with the front hit works fine, especially with the very big final hitbox. When used while landing, the multihit part can dragdown and lead to a grab or Utilt, though its frame advantage is dependent on your timing. It sends the opponent at a low angle, making it a good tool to send people offstage and gimp them there, or to set up tech chases on platforms.

Falco's second and most famous spinning multihit aerial. The beak drill has a very good range and is the perfect tool to catch an approaching opponent. Its height is also perfect to shield poke, it can be very safe when retreated and the landing hitbox allows for timing mixups that keep the opponent guessing. With the correct timing when connecting a Fair you can fastfall to land before the last hit (the so called dragdown) and get a free follow-up, making it an incredible combo starter or extender. Just like Nair, it is a very good edgeguarding tool.

Dragdown from a rising Short Hop by fastfalling as soon as possible. Won't work on tall opponents if they were grounded
Dragdown from a Full Hop under a platform by performing the Fair at the apex of the jump and fastfalling as soon as possible
The landing hitbox is slightly smaller than the multihit so it's easier to perform dragdowns if you retreat during your landing, though it'll make the following hits harder to connect.

The classic spacie backward boot stock finisher. Though Falco share the same safety on SHFF rising Bair as Fox and Wolf, his higher Short Hop makes it harder to connect on a short opponent, and its high landing lag makes it unsafe on landing. Otherwise it's an incredible kill move with good power and many setups, it's also possible to raw SH/FH Bair to call out jumps at the ledge.

Utilt, Dair, Uair and Uthrow all lead into Bair at various percents.

An overhead kick. It covers a complete 180° angle and has good reach, making it your go to aerial for juggles and combo extensions but the early hit starts low enough behind Falco to be used as a combo starter on landing. Uair can also be used as a kill move at high percentage (or as an Uthrow follow up on high platform) but the two outer hitboxes can be DI'd down away (also known as LSI) so you need to use the inner hitbox for maximum kill potential.

While it's pretty fast for a spike, its meteor power is rather on the weak side and won't start killing before mid percents. On the ground though it's an incredible combo starter that will give you combos and confirms at any percents. The late hit sends horizontally and can be used to set up tech chases on stage or gimps offstage.

A relatively slow projectile that deals little damage and with average range, covering around the 4/5th of Final Destination in length. It's transcendent so it will pass through most hitboxes, meaning that you will most likely hit your opponent but also that you will lose in a projectile battle. It's best used as an harassment tool to rack up additional damage after throwing your opponent offstage, to hinder their recovery and make edge guarding easier (you can easily steal an unsuspecting opponent's double jump), and to stop grounded opponents from dash dancing.

Aerial	7.0/6.0	18-27	66	80/270	-14	N/A

Falco pauses for a short while and travels a set distance, launching any opponent encountered upwards or spiking them if you're both airborne. The move doesn't travel through shields though, making it very easy to punish if blocked.

Though air phantasm has a slower startup and more total frames than ground phantasm its ending animation is shorter on the ground. Buffering side B from jumpsquat (also known as Instant Air Phantasm, or IAP for short) will reduce the total frames of the move to 49 (52 with jumpsquat), giving it better combo potential and making it a slow but far reaching out of shield.

When used as a recovery you can get hit before grabbing the ledge if you don't do it as low as possible.

Can combo into Utilt or any aerial depending on the percents and spacing

Falco charges for almost a second then charges in a direction. A very poor move for vertical recovery since it's very easy to intercept, but it can still be used when you have enough height to mix up your directions and timings with side B.

Falco kicks his shine forward, hitting opponents and reflecting projectiles. The hitting portion is pretty fast, has decent reach and is very disjointed, making it a good counter poke though it can be unsafe on hit when used too close up. The reflector portion is frame 1 and stays active for a very long time making it very easy to hinder any kind of projectile based gameplan.

Creates very funny interactions with Sephiroth's and Peach's counters
Can reflect in Falco's back during the early frames

 |description= Falco jumps forward with a lunging kick. The small burst of movement makes the move cover a range just outside of his regular pokes and helps keep his opponent in check. Its early hit can kill at very high percents and the late hit can setup juggles. It's unsafe on shield though, so it's better if used sparingly.
