My advanced introduction to Falcon. Includes all the essentials you'll need to play the character + important & underrated techniques + frequent mistakes falcons make.

1:23:08 Comboing

1:30:55 Techchasing
1:43:35 (continued)
(Didn't cover platform techchasing but the concepts are similar. you can hover over 2 options, react with dj drift, waveland regrab, aerial techchase from stage, etc.)

2:00:25 Edgeguarding
(Important note: when covering spacies' up-b, note there is travel time and they can delay it by riding the stage to the ledge. Beat it by full hopping & timing a fast fall stomp, or by reacting and grabbing ledge & edgehog.)
