5 KEYS FOR GETTING BETTER AT NEUTRAL IN SMASH ULTIMATE!

[@colinies]

Damn, I'm really proud of this one. For sure proud of the videos recently, but this one was pure passion. I knew there would be one mistake haha sorry about the text in the last segment. Appreciate yall

[@Zandomo_]

It was a amazing vid, I hope you make more like this! Also was that text at 12:16 supposed to be there

[@Darrekt]

I can see how much effort went into this! Really looking forward to your channel growing and getting the views it deserves

[@pigboi666]

All good this video was actually sick how much effort went into this lmao

[@jogbearcool8594]

Super cool video, very helpful. 11:22 the word you mean is inherent not inherit

[@colinies]

@@jogbearcool8594 true haha good catch

[@schmaffew2343]

I was auto piloting while watching this video, as soon as it ended I realized I was in a round two stocks down... I won.

[@colinies]

Seems like this vid is popping off a little, really really appreciate all the kind words and feedback as well. Shoutout to Chippy and his community as well as Smash University! Appreciate yall

[@dylanawana8650]

As an amateur, this explained concepts I couldn’t quite get to the full extent on my own. Great video!

[@thereal_j.b]

Another great vid. I never thought about what my plan is. I know I have 1 but to actually decipher what my plan while fighting different people or Characters. I'm definitely gonna work on that. Thanks Colin 👍🏾

[@herewego5679]

This was good. I consider myself a mid level richter/incineroar main, which both have very different play styles. You made me realize that with this video. As my Richter is more in between defensive and offensive, while my incin is pure offence. Your explanation of neutral is very good. The best i have seen so far. Keep it up

[@memenazi7078]

The best players mix it up, try to play incin like a pussycat from time to time if not to piss someone off but to drive their patience.

[@princediago4669]

This the smash content we need

[@Chippy_NE]

Great video honestly, a couple subtitles of the important bits on the screen would go a long way for watchability but you did a really good job with this one man, keep it up homie

[@colinies]

appreciate you bro! thanks for the advice as well, I definitely can see that being a good addition.

[@Adaml3oml3]

Really liked how you compared sports into the smash/neutral game, it simplified and made it way more relatable tbh. Great video. 💪🏻👍🏻

[@tropicalmonix1038]

This was very well structured and put together. The examples and references you used to explain neutral to provide any opportunity to relate to the subject is well executed. Great work, you can tell you spent quality time on this (and other recent videos as well).. keep it up!

[@SharqF1n]

#5 - THE BAIT ANNEWUTEXT LGAYER 😂 Haha great vid though fr 🙏🏻

[@sirquags]

Smash University sent me here, and boy am I glad they did.

[@MrWhatcat]

Y'know, i definitely do that "have a plan" tip, but writing it down and keeping it close might just be a better idea. This was a great vid, really helpful for thinking about how to build neutral, which is the more helpful skill in the long run

[@FGCUniversity]

Amazing video! Keep up the great work!

[@Alleis]

Collab with him sometime?

[@Special_SSB]

Only critique is the music was slightly louder than your talking, but other than that PHENOMENAL video man!

[@Afroninja1]

This the one fr fr. Extremely well made. Keep up the hard work and effort. It'll all pay off real soon.

[@alanmcgory5384]

This is easily the best neutral explanation ive ever heard. My thoughts put to words. Well done fellow yink

[@SirHammyLXXXIV]

Wow Colinies. Been a while since I've seen you in the competitive scene. I am finally learning neutral after realizing the importance of it. I've played Smash competitively for a solid amount of time now and I just wanna say damn was this video good. I laughed when I saw the new text layer error, I could feel the passion, and it genuinely helped me out. Thank you for the amazing content.

[@Aeiji1]

Been looking for more videos like this. Good stuff

[@lududelubin3011]

Another term for inherent pressure that I usually understood it as was implied threats Like how some characters with good landing aerials can make great use of empty landings because the opponent will either give space to respect the option or sometimes preempt a punish attempt on your landing Or if you're in an unreactable range to punish your opponent's ledge hang (like Cloud standing at a distance where he can dash attack you at ledge around KO percent) then they are left to guess for their life or eat the punish

[@Mufflin]

0:10 jokes on you, I talk about ALOT of stuff I don't know about in this game, especially frame data. I feel like you should make a video specifically on how to take advantage of Young Link's frame data since a lot of people seem to mention it's one of the best parts about him. Thanks for the help.

[@harrycake9407]

Easiest thing to practice reads or player habits is the following: Pick young link, grab opponent and down throw into up air, then wait for opponent to act, they'll usually come down aggressively, so do a UP B out of shield, and you've achieved your first read.

[@Zandomo_]

This video is amazing in every way possible. The examples used, the description, the dialogue, everything about this video was really fantastic I must say and I learned a lot. It’s really well thought out and I can tell you put in a lot of effort to make this video.

[@sillyvektor]

Amazing video! Also Smash University sent me

[@gio4931]

This was so damn good. Thanks man, I played mindlessly for so long without realizing it

[@Qu3Vici0]

Comming from my first offline tournament. I should've watched this video before. Thanks for making it so simple to understand.

[@soopjoos5952]

Love the Chrono Trigger music so much. This video is just so good

[@Rhyme_Time]

Love seeing the effort you've been putting into new stuff man. Killer editing giving this educational video a really lively and fun feeling. One of the best Smash videos I've seen in a while.

[@buzzeh6824]

Amazing video! This is definitely what I needed

[@datwolfe3512]

Have been trying to get better at platform fighters for a long long time and I think this video is exactly what I've been looking for! Thank you very much

[@toahru]

hey man, i’m not sure if you’ll see this, but this is the most helpful and well made smash video i’ve ever seen. so i appreciate the time and effort for this. keep up the good work man!

[@colinies]

Wow 😯 thank you :))

[@TheDelStation]

1:03 how in da fuck is Rob charging gyro a read??!?!?!? Banger vid!

[@microdemon]

This is the most informative smash video I've ever seen. Good job!

[@colinies]

Glad it was helpful!

[@risenssbu7344]

I can tell a lot of effort went into this. Good work!

[@ChillQuestionMark]

This was broken down in a very digestible way, super good stuff my guy

[@redhoundoom]

This was great. While I already get the concept of everything your saying, being refreshed on this type of information is very helpful.

[@justarandomperson5363]

First 12 second of this video are me. Liked and subbed for that alone.

[@scoop92]

Good stuff Colin very good video bro

[@ha5541]

This video is amazing. You deserve WAY more subscribers.

[@crocodilegamingtv1178]

Fantastic video my guy.

[@andrejohnson10209]

You did a great job with this man!

[@turtlek6508]

You're probably not gonna read this, but your video seriously helped me out. I was struggling for a while and I finally know why after listening to this video. Thank you so much for sharing this, I really needed this!

[@ViltrumiteIsRite99]

@7:20 dair is prolly my favorite finisher. Goood shit 🤞

[@justacupomacaroni6387]

Well that was phenomenal

[@MoonlightSama.mp3]

This was so informative, great job :)

[@SharqF1n]

Your videos are really really good. Very informative and good editing. I'm very surprised at the view counts given your tourny results and upsets!! Keep up the good work!! People will know your name eventually ✊🏻

[@colinies]

Thanks a ton!

[@JaboodyEnthusiast]

I can only visualize the neutral if I think of the game as if there's a thin wall that's always moving between us two players. I literally have to create a mental image in game to be able to get a feel for if my opponents trying to bait and punish, heavily focused on spacing Aerials, or rush me down. Without visualizing that wall, I have no clue what my options in each dynamic encounter is or when my opponent is changing up his neutral strategy.

[@chandlermua7967]

Love this content Colinies! But please don't burn yourself out!! these high quality content takes a shit ton of effort, More than people know.

[@Polo9794]

Sorry, but I'm just pausing at 3" to say thank you for putting Chrono Trigger's soundtrack in that. Brilliant

[@theAleck25]

#5 - the bait aNEW TEXT LAYER

:'((((( looool

[@mphmiles]

Smash University sent me. 🐟

[@raychi871]

I think it's actually starting to make sense now

[@luckyshot6193]

bro two things i freakin love how u use sports and sports players as a reference to help us understand the example or point youre bringing out , and second i cant share this with a friend then they till start beating me in smash . jk . good stuff tho.

[@colinies]

HAHA I used to try and not watch melee tech videos around my cousin when we first got into smash thanks for watching :))

[@luckyshot6193]

@@colinies no worries bro this some good content and informational as well im like that the point where im getting the mental aspects of the game u know so this good stuff bro the community appreciates you just incase no one has told you yet but yeah thanks for the hard work bro.

[@spookey3114]

oooh i like the intro music remix for futabas palace

[@HungRyy]

Damn, amazing video. You can really tell the passion behind it. Thank you.

[@justingalin5559]

Great video man more content about neutral would be appreciated!

[@chaogarden7035]

Amazing video bro! This helped a ton, keep up the fire content

[@jaedens5754]

Amazing video! Learned a lot thanks Colinies!!

[@sorenandreas2k]

awesome video! next time you should probably turn down the music a bit, but great content overall! do you do coaching?

[@colinies]

audio balance has been a struggle for me in these more complex videos, but I think I have a plan to make sure we're all good next time 👍

[@kevfitzgerald6638]

This video is amazing, and your Yink is godlike

[@LuisGonzalez0505]

Great video for all levels of players. I'll be recommending this to some friends!

[@colinies]

I appreciate that homie!

[@ContemplatingHope]

Great video man, very helpful

[@conortreacy7563]

this vid was really helpful thanks

[@antoninadam2251]

Cool vidéo, looks like more like a documentary but ok

[@ryffboit4234]

Use your boomerang more, use your arrows more, use your bomb more, use your nair more and use your fair more.

[@grokslamTCG]

great vid dude. subbed for more future content!

[@the0therethan]

This video was insanely good but I do have a question: how would you recommend somebody practices these skills?

[@crucibleberri]

Practice a lot outside of the game (not on quick play, or even public arenas). Try to play as consciously as possible and utilize each of the points Colonies mentioned. Make sure to talk with the person/people you play with and see what bad habits, weaknesses, etc. they notice in you, and do what you can to shake those habits.

[@strato9873]

Great video!

[@SlipzExe]

I just got blown out in a tournament when I was i was crying so bad this helped a bit

[@im_Spade_]

4:09 this man is spitting FACTS I didn't even realize 😫 I hate campy playstyles because I'm bad against them. It's that fucking simple 🤯

[@ScriptJCR]

This shit was fire

[@PrinceTrexus]

7:26 as a young link main, I really wish I could learn this combo

[@topolatte]

Awesome video

[@im_Spade_]

Yo a full 15 minute video about neutral from colonies himself? Lfgggggggggg

[@spenceranderson9965]

Just out of curiosity, what does your young link general gameplan look like?

[@NostalgiaNoishe]

Nice video man. Music seems a bit loud though.

[@enakchandler3812]

Amazing video good night!

Hi

[@NonJohns]

Instead of cold and dry lowering the volume, you should lower it over time so it isn't so abrupt

[@Dualgas]

swag town gameing

[@marcuso85]

SPORTS!

[@PrinceTrexus]

I've noticed several gameplay videos you've done where you only do the first hit of Young Link's forward air (his forward air hits twice) how do you cancel the second hit?

[@zfump2132]

Subbing cuz this video rocks
