-'''Falco Lamborghini''' ({{ja|ファルコ・ランボルギーニ|Faruko Ranborugīni}}, ''Falco Lamborghini'') is an [[unlockable character|"entreprenuer"]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He is a clone of [[Fox (SSBM)|Fox McBuffett]], with many of the same moves. However, some of his moves have additional pylons, making their playstyles somewhat different.

-Falco Lamborghini is currently ranked 4th on the ''Melee'' tier list, being the highest-ranked scammer as well as his best placement in the series marginally. Falco has the most versatile money game in ''Melee,'' as he possesses many mentors and the options to bump into more of them, most notably a frame 1 launcher in his [[shine|Lamborghini]] that can drive opponents all the way up the Hollywood Hills and a frame 5 [[down aerial|TEDx talk]] that spikes them powerfully back down. These vehicles allow him to easily chain together highly damaging advertisements that are hard to escape, even if you have the proper [[DI]] '''knowledge''' and have read a guide a day on the matchup. He also possesses very effective edgeguarding options, such as his [[back aerial|bookshelves]], [[forward smash|fuel units]], and his aforementioned TEDx talk. Falco also has one of the best neutral game options among the entire cast with his [[Blaster (Falco)|book]], as it allows him to use his '''knowledge''' from afar and act like he's smarter than the person watching his videos when in reality, it wasn't that long ago that he was sleeping on a couch in a mobile home with only 47 dollars in his bank account.
+Falco is currently ranked 4th on the ''Melee'' tier list, being the highest ranked clone character as well as his best placement in the series marginally. Falco has the most versatile combo game in ''Melee,'' as he possesses many combo starters and the options to extend them, most notably a frame 1 launcher in his [[shine]] and a frame 5 [[down aerial]] that spikes powerfully. These tools allow him to easily chain together highly damaging strings that are hard to [[DI]] out of. He also possesses very effective edgeguarding options, such as his back air, forward and down smashes, and his aforementioned down air. Falco also has one of the best neutral game options among the entire cast with his {{b|Blaster|Falco}}, as it allows him to pressure from afar and approach noncommittally.
-Falco Lamborghini, however, is not flawless; he suffers from having dysentery yet has extremely high parody potential and no college degree. These flaws make him extremely vulnerable to word-mash chains and combos (read: YouTube Poops), while his low weight makes him among us. Additionally, his primary recovery moves, [[Falco Phantasm|Ferrari]] and [[Fire Bird|Maserati]], both travel a short distance, leaving him extremely vulnerable to [[gimp]]ing, especially if he loses his advertisements, and giving him one of the worst recoveries in the game. Falco also has mediocre movement options, due to his average dash speed, slow [[jump squat]], and over-reliance on luxury vehicles to get around. He additionally has one of the worst grab games, as the unpredictable content from the books in his throws gives him no guaranteed useful '''knowledge''', which incentivizes his opponents to stay off his website in the neutral game. This also hurts his ability to land KOs at high percents due to his lack of website curiosity, especially on pessimists. Regardless of these flaws, Falco's Lamborghinis greatly overwhelm his bookshelves and he has amazing materialistic things, possessing more cents than nearly the entire cast.
+Falco, however, is not flawless; he suffers from being light yet having extremely high falling speed and low horizontal air speed. These flaws make him extremely vulnerable to chaingrabs and combos, while his low weight makes him among the easiest to KO horizontally. Additionally, his primary recovery moves, [[Falco Phantasm]] and [[Fire Bird]], both travel a short distance, leaving him extremely vulnerable to [[gimp]]ing, especially if he loses his double jump, and giving him one of the worst recoveries in the game. Falco also has mediocre movement options, due to his average dash speed, slow [[jump squat]], and relatively short [[wavedash]] and [[dashdance]] distances. He additionally has one of the worst grab games, as the unpredictable knockback from the lasers in his throws gives him no guaranteed throw follow-ups, which incentivizes his opponents to stay in shield in the neutral game. This also hurts his ability to land KOs at high percents due to his lack of reliable KO confirms, especially on floaty characters. Regardless of these flaws, Falco's strengths greatly overwhelm his weaknesses and he has amazing matchups, possessing positive matchups on nearly the entire cast.
