Popular usage within the community vetoes any chance of deleting a page like this, but you are correct to point out the fact that Captain Falcon doesn't really belong in this category. Not even in popular usage, frankly. Nobody would ever consider a Falcon vs. Fox match a "space animal ditto," for instance. --[[User:Randall00|Randall00]] 00:04, 29 April 2008 (UTC) | Popular usage within the community vetoes any chance of deleting a page like this, but you are correct to point out the fact that Captain Falcon doesn't really belong in this category.

Before making a drastic edit to this page, I would like to say that Captain Falcon is NOT a space animal. In addition to the obvious aesthtic differences, his falling speed may be close to both Fox and Falco, but it is different enough such that he isn't vulnerable to combos that affect real space animals like Jigglypuff's Up Throw -> Rest or Marth's Up Throw chain grab. Other chain grabs that work on both space animals and Falcon usually work at different percentages such as Peach's Up Throw chain grab. In the smash community Space Animals are defined by their combo/shield pressure ability and how much tech skill is required to play them. Yes, Falcon has combos of his own too, but they are vastly different from Fox's and Falco's. Heck actually, all the top tier characters have insane combos anyway, it's just that they don't take nearly as much tech skill to pull off. Falcon's combos are done by L-canceling and reading. Fox's/Falco's are done by frame perfect waveshines and SHFFLs. Another thing that defines space animals is similarity in matchups. Fox and Falco have a slight advantage to even matchup against Sheik whereas Falcon gets totally destroyed by Sheik. To conclude, I would like to propose that it should be fact that Captain Falcon is not a space animals. I don't know a single competitive smasher in the modern melee community who would oppose this. Thoughts?--<span style="background-color:#6d84e1;border:3px solid silver">[[User:1337 B33FC4K3|<span style="color:silver">'''Brian'''</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:1337 B33FC4K3|<span style="color:black">Don't try me!</span>]]</sup>[[File:Falco.gif|link=|27px]]</span> 19:56, 2 February 2013 (EST) |
