The fan favorite racecar driver of Smash Bros. returns with his signature flair and speed. Captain Falcon is one of the fastest characters in the game, and has a toolkit that makes him one of the stronger characters at aggressive play. Fast dashes, great throws, nice combos and a variety of devastating attacks make Captain Falcon an offensive threat. Captain Falcon is also one of the most stylish characters in the game, with an arsenal of risky and flashy moves that will rouse the crowd and intimidate foes if pulled off. Captain Falcon's focus on offense gives him a sizable flaw in his defense. Lacking a projectile, he is forced to play at close-range and sometimes has trouble against tight projectile zoning. Captain Falcon also has one of the weaker recoveries in the game. Nevertheless, he is an exceedingly fun character for any player that likes to win with style. | The fan favorite racecar driver of Smash Bros. returns with his signature flair and speed.

|fb3desc=After a brief delay, Captain Falcon rushes forward very quickly and over a greater distance, but his attack is weaker. This variant is very odd. It's supposed to be faster and cover more distance than the default Raptor Boost to compensate for its reduced power. However, its significant startup delay, which exceeds that of the Heavy Raptor Boost, nullifies the increased speed and distance a bit. This makes it more or less as the same as Raptor Boost when it comes to punishing rolls, but it has lower KO potential, making it a worst choice as an attack overall. It is better for horizontal recovery due to its long distance, though. | |fb3desc=After a brief delay, Captain Falcon rushes forward very quickly and over a greater distance, but his attack is weaker.
