Why People Main Captain Falcon in Smash Ultimate

With Smash Ultimate finally here, I felt it would only be fitting if I made a series where I could dedicate my love for it too. And what more of a perfect character to start off with than Captain Falcon!

Hey! So this has been in the works for a while, hopefully the effort was worth it and you enjoyed! I basically learned SFM while making this, which can excuse the somewhat sloppy bits, but I promise the next episodes will only get better and better with quality as I get the hang of stuff. Also I feel it's obvious to note this series was heavily inspired by LazyPurple's! If you haven't seen it then I highly recommend them. I've already got a good idea of what character I'll do next, but feel free to comment who you'd like to see next! ..Or don't.. you're call I guess!

Then given Ganon a new moveset. Those who love the playstyle still have it, we get another F-Zero rep finally, Ganon gets a nice refresh alongside his reworked model, to go along with the other zelda characters, most of whom got new stuff or different tools and changes for either ultimate or 4 when it came out.

Simply due to the Gurren Lagann references this video needs more attention. The Smash and Captain Falcon('s ass) just makes it 10X better.

[@mitrimind1027]

I mean, Captian Falcon has some satisfying moves to land but let's look at what Ganondorf has. The worlock punch is like the Falcon punch, but it hits even harder! Ganondorf's stomp is even more stompy! Can't forget that up tilt where he raises his leg high in the air, then when he puts his foot down, BOOM! Sure, the captain may be a lot faster, but Ganon sacrifices speed to go bigger. They call Ganondorf the king of disrespect for a reason, and he lets out an evil laugh to top it off.

[@juampisito]

Yeah but winning with him is almost imposible in competitions, It has such a bad recovery and captain Falcon is way better in that sense.

[@juampisito]

@official_hckr My cousin told me yesterday it has been buffed but anyways there are always good player who know how to use all the potential of a character.

[@johnnymorningstar2855]

I'll admit I'm more of a Ganon player myself but Ganon is much more of a defensive player overall. With CF you can pull off ridiculous combos which can hype anyone when done right. I may prefer Ganondorf over Captain Falcon, but there's no denying this guy is right when he says the Cap is just awesome

[@mysteryman1036]

I’m disappointed. Time for some justice.

@@xSilentZeroXx Joker was the best reveal!

[@Erik-zr6wy]

PERSONA!

[@xSilentZeroXx]

@@Erik-zr6wy as someone with no pre-existing attachment to the character, I felt literally nothing for his reveal. That might seem like a "well, duh" sentiment, but the thing is, the only third-party DLC character for 4 I *did* have any attachment to was Cloud. Now, naturally, he was the one I was the most hyped for. But despite me never really caring for Ryu or Bayonetta before, their trailers gave me a reason to care because they showed me someone that was fun to play as. Now, I get that Joker's going to get a proper gameplay trailer at some point. I do. But his current trailer was a 2 minute waste of time for anyone who didn't care to begin with (which, again, is most Smash fans). Contrast Mewtwo's reveal for Smash 4. No gameplay, sure, but it was only ten seconds and we actually got a character model. Anyone who didn't care to play Mewtwo back in Melee because of his giant head could rejoice that he *didn't* have a big head in 4. The only thing I can call Joker's reveal is pretentious. It's the scale of a teaser reveal you'd expect for someone like Master Chief or Kratos. Not for someone whose game didn't even get a fifth of the sales those games did. If you're happy for Joker, then good for you. That doesn't change the fact that he's a literal who in a game where that title used to belong exclusively to Bayonetta. Wake me up when we get a third party on the scale of Snake, Sonic, Ryu, or Cloud again, or at least close to that. Until then, I'll continue playing the frankly wonderful base game while blissfully ignoring the presently shitty season pass.

The other day I was playing Smash with a friend. He was playing Captian Falcon, while I was Ganondorf. I had managed to already get rid of two out of his three stocks before he could get rid of any of mine. Now he was getting mad, "No, No, NO! You will not three stock me again!" I sat there, trying to stop the shit-eating grin that was building on my face. In his anger, he grew desperate, and as you said in the video, he decided, "Fuck it!" He jumped toward me charging an aerial Falcon Punch. I responded with Ganon's own Neutral special - Reverse Warlock Punch. He landed, his spacing was perfect - he hit me with his best attack. I thought I lost a stock as he scream in elation. However, the Warlock Punch bestows Super Armor, it is because of that Super Armor that I was able to completely tank his Falcon Punch and because of the Falcon Punch's end-lag, he couldn't dodge my Warlock Punch. I hit him, he died instantly and I won the game - three stocking for the fifteenth time in a row. And that Ladies and Gentleman, is the reason why Ganondorf is the King of Disrespect. Ganon mains rise up.
