Overview

Falco sticks his leg forward to poke the opponent. This move is decent for keeping opponents at bay in close range, and does not have significant ending lag, although it is not too difficult to punish if overused. It is most commonly used after a short hop laser on opponents recovering close to the edge, as it can help the laser cover their options. When angled down, it can also gimp characters with linear recoveries who are recovering low near the edge.
