I genuinely don't understand how atomsk does this. This is arguably one of the 10 worst matchups in the game, yet he just decides to win

[@ErtM-vh5vs]

Even mu since zss plays slow and dedede lives forever 😊

[@Noot_Penguin]

Very dominant game 3 and 4 games in an awful mu, shows how good his adaptation is

[@MaxTheSwagMasterC]

Fucking crazy set. I was so happy when I saw the vod for the last atomsk set and was like "Hell yea, this guy is making me and other DDD lads proud." And then I went to vgbootcamp on twitch, and saw this set happening, and said "Well, guarenteed 5th ain't bad. Still very happy." Then he pulls through on this set masterfully. Well god damn done, man. Well god damn done.

[@koolkalamari]

My thoughts exactly! Everyone underestimates King Dedede, but the right players can make him absolutely schnasty.

[@jetstreamsam0799]

ZSS-DDD is one of those mu's that you hear and think, "Wow. That sounds awful."

[@BN99239]

AoS started the first match playing at a super fast pace. If he is able to keep that up the entire time then he probably would've win, but yeah it's difficult to stay focused and keep going at that pace. It's better to start out control and speed up as you go. Starting out fast then slowing down is mentally taxing for the player as well, since you start to feel that sluggishness creeping up.

[@IamCanadian3333]

That zero to death in the third game was pretty lit, ngl.

[@UltLuigi1]

If he had actually committed to an offstage dair on atomsk at the end of game 2, he probably would have won the set. Dropping that game decided the outcome.

[@quadzers5703]

Dedede is a character that excels at slowing down the momentum when in disadvantage. If you are a very patient person then you will do good as/against dedede.

[@higsbymacguffin3982]

99% of the playerbase - "Dedede is a trash character" Atomsk - "Hold my beer, and this L"

[@Nate_505]

Dedede's uptilt is such a cracked move. Love it

[@MastaShake99]

Up tilt is one of DDD's best moves but its really not cracked, unfortunately. its very honest. it was absolutely cracked in brawl though

[@Nate_505]

@@MastaShake99 yeah it’s definitely not broken tbh but it just hits so hard for how relatively quick it is. Especially if you reverse it

[@MastaShake99]

@@Nate_505 agreed!

[@LyndanTylor]

10:27 ZERO SUIT DEDEDE!

[@tristansocial]

i would have loved to watch this set live

[@elkantan2570]

As a heavy player this is the most frustrating and ecstatic sets to watch

[@freddiesimmons1394]

Watching these games really makes me feel that characters like ZSS (and a couple other top tiers) have unearned kill power.

[@randomname9723]

isnt zss samus low tier tho /s

[@lavandieredenoz]

@@randomname9723 nah, good combo and kill confirm, can space out, extra mobile in the air ect, she's at elast low toptier

[@Rokinwubzies13109]

Damn, that set was nuttier than a pecan pie.. 🤭

[@LyndanTylor]

Whoever decided it would be a good idea to cut away from the players right at the end of each match needs a talking to.

[@BikiniSSBU]

I fucking love ddd

[@phillyjahbreezy215]

ZSS combos are tough 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@edrd2368]

les go seth rogen

[@user-lq4ct6dr5m]

Spoiler Holy , how did Dedede win , this is one of the impossible matchups in the game

[@okayperson3041]

He just caught onto Aos’ bad habits and abused them.

[@user-lq4ct6dr5m]

It’s Aos’s fear for gordo that cost him the set , plus Atomsk’s aggressive gordo setup also plays a important part ( Different from Zaki , whose gordo is great at edgeguarding)

[@willycheez7218]

Atomsk must just be much better

[@extasse99]

That’s just how it is to play a low tier. You always get impossible matchups and sometimes you just have to make do.

[@santiagoossa2301]

Probably little match up knowledge, there is only so many match ups you can learn and DDD is probably not one of them

[@Greenlink01]

BRO THAT 2ND GAME THO

[@FishTankEnjoyer]

My king!

[@alonso30012]

ZSS: up air, up air, back air. Nair into down B + up B (full combo mode) Big penguin: up tilt Win

[@tonyoik1012]

ZSS: Slim as fuck hurtbox, great frame data on her moves, quick as fuck both on the ground and in the air, extremely agile with a lot of recovery mixups 3D: Literally a walking hurtbox, slow to mid speed on the ground, absolutely a joke in the air, all of his moves hit hard but not as hard as other heavies, extremely punishable, predictable recovery options, tons of landing lag. So yeah, if an extremely mobile character gets to the point where Dedede has damaged them enough to kill them with one Up tilt, they deserve it.

[@ErtM-vh5vs]

​@@tonyoik1012tall ASF hurtbox.frame data is decent at best, mediocre buttons, dedede doesn't care about recovery D3: Giant hammer Easily lived to 160% Gordo ledgetrap Uptilt Doesn't sweat from zss mid combos Even mu. Only good characters like fox and sheik can actually abuse d3

[@sheempemailsv9327]

Fighting zero suit samus is not easy. It's the character. Not the player so much. The character just has those ridiculous Ariel jumps and recoveries from doing it at the sametime.

[@slash-dz4rk]

The loki tag is hype

[@su9cp]

Jump scare at 7:00

[@landslideddd5944]

LETS FUCKING GO ATOMSK

[@sheempemailsv9327]

Spamming that ball like crazy with king dedede. What a clown.

[@SoloSoyUnJugador]

Es el único proyectil que tiene para mantener distancia :u

[@Wytooken]

talk about a player going super saiyajin. goddamn

[@DefenestrateYourself]

DEREGULATE TAPIOCA

[@sheempemailsv9327]

While watching till the end king dedede be living with high damage. They need to fix that in this game. What a joke

[@nathanm6372]

Someone missed nap time and it shows

[@jimmywilliams278]

having smash announcers/commentators is pointless

[@splendidninja1378]

How so?
