Swordsmen? The only swordsman I remember is Link and his midjet self, both of which are annoying, but easily beat.
Falco is just like Fox, except his laser fires at a slower rate, but actually makes you flinch. He's slightly slower than Fox but he can jump higher, something I abuse easily. Once my target is damaged enough so that he/she bounces high enough when I do 'Down+A' (some trip them that flips the person upside down into the air) thaat I can jump and knock them straight back down into the ground, at which point they bounce back slightly into the air again, then I do a quick 'Forward+A' and send them flying. If they try to jump back I jump right at them and down a downwards air attack to hit them straight down and then I jump right baack.
And screw reps, the system doesn't work anyway. People abuse it in both ways. I'm surprised it still exists.
