I'm studying this video like the Bible.

[@nothere9676]

This is a damn good video, props.

[@Ramenbowl]

Googling ZZS' flip kick to understand how not to suicide, whoa; this was a damn pleasant surprise! One of the most detailed guides I've ever seen. Top stuff :)

[@toomuchpinkenergy9244]

This is quality content I haven't seen in a while. Thanks man.

[@Dessanti]

damn that was the coolest intro i've ever seen

[@Wrathful_Scythe]

Fantastic video. Even though I don't play or intend to play ZSS, you earned yourself a sub.

[@surrealisticinfinity2895]

Great vid man! Im maining ZSS and find this really helpful! She is really not easy to master but so fun to play with :D

[@chicomigrania822]

Thank you for this excelent video, not only is the information superbly structured and explained but there is also so much attention to detail, the transitions, the music, the synching of the sounds to the music.

[@static_5795]

Learned so many things I didn't know about and probably never would've figured out on my own. That guide is so well done. Thanks man :D

[@user-vu1sq5zr6v]

this video is so gooooooooood !

[@jseba06]

Dude make a spike with a flip kick is most satisfacting thing ever

[@petrus554]

Explaining the correct way to perform nair with the tip of the hitbox while Tip of Spear is playing on the background. That was a master move.

[@MisterPeanutButter1]

Great video! Not only was I underestimating how useful the flip kick was, but your video's animation of the controller is a great way to explain inputs

[@Khelidube.]

The halo music hyped me up so much on the intro!

[@Krethean]

After finding myself in another ceiling predicament with ZSS, I came across this guide, and I did my best to try and work the Flip Jump as effectively as possible. I lack the skill to go short hop Nair and Fair to Flip Jump Kick but I managed to force my friends to respect it after I did some reversals and aggressive approaches with other options I use. Thank you for this amazing guide, this really helped me push through that ceiling and improve my game a lot!

[@bengotagun]

So sick. Had my OH face on for all of those combos. As a ZSS main, this was SO helpful. Thank you!

[@KMRider]

This is one of the best smash ultimate guides I've ever seen! SOOOOO Underrated

[@PiperPrime]

Whoa! I was looking for just any average combo video but you sir hit the ball right out of the park with this! Phenomenal job! Zero Suit Samus' down b is easily the most satisfying move once you master it.

[@sheahon1179]

Excellent video, I’m new to ZS Samus and will be practicing now! And for the record using music from Halo 3 and Halo Reach is guaranteed to please. I really appreciate that. Thank you and keep it coming! I know you almost exclusively play Samus but feel free to make videos on whomever you like!
