Charizard's airspeed, while I do agree it's not very good, isn't detrimental. He has decreased capability for combos at high percents, but he doesn't really need anything at that point. He has kill setups primarily based on his jab mixups. Flare Blitz, while punishable as a recovery move, is very difficult to deal with when it's used below the stage so that it snaps to the ledge. As for the move in itself, no one's ever going to use it unless they catch their opponent off guard for a punish. He's got faster kill setups.

Also why is everyone saying Fly has so horrible reach LOL. It's actually very good when used alongside his multiple double jumps and Flare Blitz.
