Falco (SSB4)

Falco (ファルコ, Faruko) returns as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. 4, as confirmed by a leaker's Twitch stream. His moveset appears to be largely unchanged from its Brawl incarnation.

His appearance also hasn't changed much from Brawl, albeit a lighter shade of blue for the feathers and a smaller eye reticle.

Changes from Brawl

  • Buff Forward air and neutral air connect better.
  • Buff Neutral attack has a finisher.
  • Buff Forward air has less ending lag.
  • Buff Back air has a new animation and is faster.
  • Buff Falco Phantasm has slightly less startup lag and no longer leaves Falco helpless when used in midair.
  • Buff Up smash is stronger.
  • Buff Fire Bird gains more recovery distance.
  • Nerf Down air is slower.
    • Buff However, it is stronger.
  • Nerf Forward smash has more startup lag.
  • Nerf Lasers have landing lag and cannot be fired as frequently
  • Nerf Landmaster is less powerful.

The following moves appear unchanged:

  • Forward tilt
  • Up tilt
