Re: Idea: Buff Falcon's Side Taunt to help him not get zoned Here's a relevant post I made in response to some posts about Falcon in the Metaknight topic: That's all? Would you please teach me how to edit it myself, or link me to a good tutorial? I could test my suggestions before I post them...

Re: Idea: Buff Falcon's Side Taunt to help him not get zoned Modified, balanced suggestions for changes to two of Falcon's taunts: 1.) Side Taunt: Get rid of the "pull" effect, and give Falcon super armor for the duration of the taunt. The "pull" effect does nothing but harm Falcon if he...

Too late, damage is done. Are you part of the dev team now? I don't recall reading any of my suggestions being outright "declined". Sammi and Pin didn't seem too receptive to them, so I tried to explain why they were good ideas, and wouldn't be overkill. A simple cancel on side taunt would...

I tried to change the subject: Yep, definitely being an ass there...

R.O.B., Lucario, and several others are still pretty far above Falcon on the tier list. I want to see Falcon on their level... Speaking of those two, Glyph posted in detail about R.O.B.'s weaknesses a while back, but no one has posted much about Lucario's weaknesses that I know of. Anyone care...

All I see is a currently useless side taunt and a Falcon who needs help against projectile spam. I've made my suggestions for improvement, several of which would work well. I think it's unfortunate if no cancel or reflect is given to Falcon just because he's already "good enough". Falcon isn't...

Still, all of those taunts are actually useable. Falcon's side taunt is not, as-is; if he uses it on a stage the size of FD, he's going to get punished for it. As-is, Falcon is saying "Come on (punch me in the face)", when he should be saying "Come on (if you dare)". Also, almost forgot: Mario...

^ I bet If Climbers will be buffed soon. Why is it okay for Jigglypuff, Luigi, and Toon Link to have two useful regular taunts, but not Falcon?

If that's okay, then how about giving Falcon the ability to reflect projectiles with some of these (from most to least useful): - The flame aura that appears during his down taunt and secret taunt (makes sense to me. Flame shield!) - His hand when he uses side taunt (a use for side taunt, woo)...

Jigglypuff has two useful taunts (Gravity and Deflate), and one of Lucario's taunts works like a mini version of his ultra taunt. Luigi and Toon Link also have two useful taunts each. Giving Falcon's side taunt a cancel - even if only into a grab, jab, or Pawnch - would not make it too safe to...

There were also these three ideas: - Guaranteed crowd cheering after combos that are epic, but very hard to actually perform. Examples: Triple Knee or Flying Falcon Punch. - Add a burying or bouncing attack property to Luigi's fist as he comes down from his Up B. - Make it so Ganondorf can do...

Did anyone like the other ideas I mentioned earlier?

Glad to hear it. I hope Mario's Metal Cap and Jigglypuff's Gravity are removed too. Too strong for regular taunts... I liked Thunda Moo's old rules for taunts, before they started getting too useful and powerful.

Far from it. I just see a cool side taunt with untapped potential. :/

Okay, sheesh! It sounded like a good idea to me. Falcon's side taunt is staying useless, great... Mario, DK, and Jigglypuff got highly useful regular taunts. A simple cancel wasn't asking for much.

Exactly! So why would a Falcon main like yourself want it left as-is? It's one thing not to care either way, but to want one of your main's moves to remain useless when it doesn't have to... I don't get it.

^ I didn't forget. What I don't get is why you would rather keep Falcon's side taunt in its current USELESS form, rather than buff it enough to make it at least safe to use occasionally on a stage the size of FD. I think that every move a character has should have SOME utility. Falcon's current...

I see... Thanks for the tip, I'll try it out.

I agree. R.O.B. and Lucario have too few unfavorable matchups, and their mainers are unlikely to lose unless you're using one of the few characters that have an advantage over them. Any other characters like this? Who are DK, Dedede, and Ivysaur weak against?
