Why on earth does Fox die so early and is easy to combo?

  • I'm pretty sure he's the heaviest character in the game

  • Yeah that makes him easy to combo but it really helps with his speed

  • Personally, if he were given at least one more kill set up, then I'd think he'd be solid. Fox ain't bad, but he's a glass cannon. Playing against most characters who know what they're doing can be tough when your only kill options are an Up-smash or an Up Air. Up air requires a tough read, and so does the up-smash, and it can be punished hard.

    @Collin Fox is the 6th lightest character in the game :,) Not even close to the heaviest. Fox is definitely a glass canon, but pretty good. Part of the problem might be that he (and falco) require a ton of precision to play which is a pain on laggy fg. Fox's back air is also a decent kill option I believe? I don't play Fox but he and Falco both share the weakness of struggling to get the kill

    @Pete yes! Falco's fair has a landing hitbox- messes opponents up all the time. Also is nair and fair are (against most characters) are safe on shield if you jab right after. I would consider fox the better character, as he's faster, has actually useful lasers, and better kill setups/frame data- but not better by too much. I obviously feel safer with Falco too as he's my main lol. They're both-

  • -very deep characters actually that don't get enough attention imo. Fox does get higher tier placement usually, but I hardly ever see him online or in tournament, and Falco is disregarded completely (although I agree he's pretty meh)

  • Falco sometimes has a good setup on Ganon,DeDeDe,Bowser,and DK from 0%-30% that can combo into meteor smash if your lucky. Down tilt→fast fall N-air→short-hop F-air→to D-air if they don't air dodge quickly or fastfall. Down tilt can be substituted with an up-tilt if necessary.
