Captain Falcon is currently ranked 34th on the tier list as a result of several factors. His attack speed and killing power are severely [[nerf]]ed in comparison with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]''. Falcon's aerials tend to have poor hitboxes, making safe approaches nearly impossible, especially when considering his lack of [[projectile]]s. The impact of the new ''Brawl'' physics arguably hit Captain Falcon the hardest; less hitstun and the loss of L-canceling result in drastically fewer, weaker combos, and a less effective dashdance and inability to [[moonwalk]] give him even fewer options. Fairly poor [[out of shield]] options due to his very short grab range and mediocre range in his jab, predictable recovery, and low traction are also cited as problems for Falcon's metagame. As a result, he has many poor match-ups as well as poor overall tournament results. | Captain Falcon is currently ranked 34th on the tier list as a result of several factors.
