I mean he's just straight-up combo food for so many characters at the top. Falcon can do a LOT and rides hard on momentum but:

-He can get destroyed just as easily as he rolls things over. He can get suffocated by projectiles, he's combo food in a game where most top tiers have relentless combo games, he can get pressed hard in disadvantage, etc.

-His recovery is very exploitable and Fatality really walks on a thin line with the best possible recoveries he can pull off, which are impressive, but demonstrate just how far you have to go to squeeze out just a little of Falcon's recovery.

Per results h'es 15-20ish (which is also where Fatality hits on average with player rankings) but a bad bracket can sink Falcon really badly. There are a lot of characters in the 25-15 range that suffer horribly from bracket luck. Peach, Lucario, heavyweights, etc. can all look god-like until they run into a 40-60 matchup (or worse) that ruins their day.
