Bowser vs Falco: Matchup Outline

Matchup Outline Falco's POV Rundown + Falco has a very strong and easy combo game on Bowser. + Falco has a strong CC that can make it difficult for Bowser to safely hit him. + Falco has a very strong vertical presence through quick vertical movement. + Falco has a very strong horizontal stage presence through lasers and solid ground movement. - Falco can have a tough time safely approaching Bowser. - Falco has low survivability. Bowser's POV Rundown + Bowser is very threatening near the edge of the stage. - Bowser cannot approach very safely due to Falco's incredible antiairs. - Everything is high risk-high reward for Bowser in the matchup.

Bowser vs Peach: Matchup Outline

Matchup Outline Peach's POV Rundown + Peach has a lot of really good short-ranged grounded options. + Peach has a very strong CC, with a lot of great options she can use after taking an attack.  + Peach's FC aerials are very good on shield and against CC. - Peach has limited aerial mobility both vertically and horizontally.  - Peach's doublejump, while giving her a DJC, makes it very hard to get up very high quickly.  - When Peach commits to floating high in the air, she does not have a lot of quick horizontal control. Bowser's POV Rundown + Bowser is uniquely as fast or faster than Peach for most airborne interactions. + Bowser's movement strengths (Ledge, feints, wavelands) correspond exactly to areas where Peach's movement is poor. + Bowser is better at abusing platforms than Peach is. + Bowser has a better ledge game than Peach, but it's not as free as it is with other characters. - Bowser gets comboed and edgeguarded by Peach very hard
