    Captain Falcon, with the second fastest running speed in the game, powerful attacks, fearsome grab game, and deadly mix ups. He's the 4th fastest faller in the game, tied for 11-13th place in weight so he's heavy, really good aerial mobility, lethal offstage, but a lack of presence offstage. He has no projectiles, a linear and semi poor recovery.

    Meanwhile Ike, tied for 8-9th place in weight, which makes him heavier. Tied for 34-39th place in Run Speed, above average aerial mobility. Tied for15-18th in fast fall speed. He has powerful aerial and ground game with very long disjointed attacks. Ike has a fearsome grab game as well. And while also linear recovery, it covers more distance. His frame data is also not as bad as 1 would think.

    Ike literally because of his sword. Ike's a lot slower on the ground but people underestimate Ike's arials. Nair is super safe to land with if your behind your opponent, and Bair is deadly at the ledge. The Falcon would really have to use the Ike players tendencies against him and find a safe way in. Its not exactly hard to hit people as Ike either, at least people his size like Falcon.

    I agree. As of now, I feel Ike has the advantage. His attacks are deceptively fast and the range! I think C. Falcon would need to do a more bait and punish playstyle, which he IS good at doing.

    I don't use either of tgem, but here's what I think. Probably betterfor Ike. He has more reach and that's disjointed. He can throw out Nairs and Bairs and stay safe all the time. If Falcon gets thrown offstage, due to his meh recovery he'll probably have to grab the ledge. Ike can charge Eruption at the ledge and flat out DESTROY him with good timing. And Ike has better recovery. Quick draw...

    has huge horizontal reach and Aether has super armor, but if he's out of jump and diagonally below the ledge, he's dead, unlike Falcon, because his up b is diagonal. And if Ike has to use side b, Falcon can jump over his head and spike him into oblivion. Also, Ike is combo food for days. But if Cap can get in, that is, which is hard. Yeah, not expert on either, just what I figured out.

    And yeah, Falcon would have to fish for smashes or somehing and punish. Ike is dangerous, but can get predictable sometimes.

    Well, it seems pretty clear that this match up is in Ike's favor. Sorry Captain, but you came in last this time.
