Hello! I didn't expect you here of all places

[@TierZoo]

While Bowser's down-smash may be an insane buff, have you played against a good bowser main? Bowser's neutral-B does like 50 damage if he catches you in it both onstage and offstage, and shield-pokes you if you dare try to block it. It's basically fully charged Piranha Plant side-b except it actually has hitstun and he doesn't even need to charge it.

[@MrMockRock]

Oh yeah, Bowser's neutral B is _crazy_ this time around, but it was already at least solid in Smash 4 where his down smash change basically added a new, good move to his kit. He was one of the characters I went back and forth on the most though, along with Ganon and Link.

@@nazukah2861 Ideas: Squirtle's could be a whirlpool. It would pull opponents in as a multi hit with some range then have a finishing hit with low knock back and end lag, allowing him to combo out of it. I'm debating whether or not to let it be charged to give it kill potential and a slightly bigger hitbox so that it can scoop people from the ledge. For Ivysaur, I was thinking of a healing move, Synthesis. It lets you heal for as long as you want as long as you don't cancel it or get hit. The catch? It can only be used once per stock.

[@TheAcer176]

[@sarasaland4709]

What’s better? Catch Ike’s new Neutral-Air? Catch Ike’s new Up-Air? Or Catch Ike’s new Neutral-Air to Up-Air Kill confirm?

[@MrMockRock]

Yes.

[@Xerxsion]

Nair, because it confirms into like all aerials but dair. Even confirms into UpB for a spike or suicide

[@smashgambits]

My only thing with this was that nair was pretty good in Smash4 as well. They just made a good move better. IMO the new aethercide mechanic is Ike's biggest change, because that's an entirely new option and makes him much safer offstage.

[@luischeco3009]

Smash Gambits Aethercide isn't new either. Nair into imagination was in Smash 4. Ike was just slow. You could say his Up-Air is the best change, but it is LITERALLY the same as his old one. (Start-up at 11 frames as well) For me, SPEED is his best change. His jumpsquat being 3 frames is important because he relies on Aerials.

[@smashgambits]

@@luischeco3009 Aethercide is absolutely new. Ike died first every time in Smash4, no matter what. So anyone could just come up and poke you with any move, because if Ike tried to hail-mary aether before he could snap to the ledge, he died. Now on the last stock, you have to respect the aether possibility and outspace it. And the hitbox is much better on the new upair, so even though it has the same startup I wouldn't say it's the same :)

Wait, what about Ike changes- 10:05 ooooh, the nair

[@RealSuperMario64]

*Spam Nair win game*

[@alolamao833]

Well, I’m not sure if it’s his most buffed move. I mean, yes, it’s broken, but it was already really good in smash 4. It centralized his gameplay in 4, and it still does in ultimate. IMO, as a smash 4 Ike main (I don’t main him in ultimate no more, he’s too braindead), I’d say his most buffed move is up air. In SSB4, up air was a decent helicopter swing with a long lasting hitbox that killed early, but it was small and slow. It wasn’t a juggle tool, it was more of a mixup kill option that you rarely used instead of up smash/up tilt. In ultimate, they gave him Marth up air, except it’s way bigger than SSB4 Ike up air, faster than SSB4 Ike up air, it kills just as early as SSB4 Ike, you can combo start with it, and you can combo into it (yes you could combo into SSB4 Ike up air, but it had like a 3% window)

[@umtrain1730]

@@alolamao833 To be honest I can kind of agree to that. I've mained Ike since Brawl (Path of Radiance was and still is my favorite Fire Emblem, so him being in Smash was awesome.) and his Nair was never even a bad move. Sure, Nair wasn't Ike's entire gameplay in Brawl and Sm4sh, but it was still decent. Uair on the other hand I didn't really like. Memes aside, the Ike-copter is inferior in every single way to his new Uair.

*Other amazing veteran Changes* - Link's neutral air. God, this move is Fox's nair, except it shield stabs easily and confirms into a ton of things. It can even be used to edgeguard with the incredibly lingering hitbox. G&W's Up B. How could you forget this move? A frame 3 out of shield option that launches character up with G&W to start combos & escape shield pressure. Benefits very much so from air dodge being an option after it. Palutena's Neutral air. This move almost has it all! It shield pokes, shield stabs, crosses up, edgeguards, and even kills. Ivysaur's uair & dair. These moves only last 1 frame, but are massive death bubbles that control so much space and kill. Lucas's Zair being double jump cancellable. This enables Lucas to cancel his double jump's height gains in favor of a descending 9 frame startup disjoint that can combo into itself, drag characters from one side of the stage to the other, and lead to kill confirms. Understandable why PK freeze would get the slot. It single-handedly borks characters with lower execution requirements. Ice Climber's Squal Hammer & Blizzard (both climbers). Blizzard does a f*ck ton of shield damage for its startup of 16 frames and hit characters get encased in a mass of ice that can lead into more combos and kill confirms like desych u-tilt-uair or uair strings. Squal Hammer is a mobile toon link's grounded up-b (dealing 28%+ shield damage or 23% on non-shielding characters if all hits connect) & is surprisingly difficult to punish because of the good horizontal drift and only 28 frames on endlag. It even comes out in 10 frames. These options essentially punishes overzealous shielders if you get content shielding their aerials and pressure.

Normally, I am not into watching videos about "competitive" Smash, but your style is pretty nice. Maybe it's the way you speak or the fact that you are quick and to the point, but I have enjoyed your videos. Nice work, Mockrock.

"you often got punished for landing the attack" Samus mains:" oh you mean jab right"

Never ask me for anything ever again.

[@plompedu]

Can you please nerf Peach? And Daisy? And Snake? And Young Link? And Pikachu? And Lucina? And Ness? And Wolf? And Wario? And Palutena?

[@arexed1053]

Rather get hit by kirby beyblade, or meteor of death? Have u ever gotten a fully winded beyblade launched at you?

Finally, they made Dark Pit's Silver Bow the closest to a non-final smash version of the Dark Pit Staff 0: (I love it, it's really gud)

Wow, this channel grew quickly and this is totally deserved

Hi, Bayo main here! She actually did get one buff among the many... many nerfs. Witch Time has a larger activation range, meaning she can now witch time projectiles from half the stage away and get a punish. Granted it’s useless until kill percent since she won’t have time to get there otherwise, but it lets her play the game vs projectile sobers.

[@phemsee5775]

Yukicraft lol bayo main here as well (of all 10 of them 😂) I like that she has gone from so unskillful to very skilful (mainly due to witchtime nerfs) but I really wish they’d reduce her lag - I hate it when I hit the ground and am pressing shield but still get hit by smash attacks etc because the lag hasn’t finished

Personally I think Mac's best buff is neutral B. It's now shield cancelable, has more armor, and can turn around. Basically this means Mac has an actual landing option and takes away certain characters playstyle (palutena, Pichu,etc) Side B is also a really good choice

[@TheDemonChara]

His side b change isn't all that great. Sure it comes with the recovery benefit... But if you get hit after that? You don't get it back so you likely dead.

[@obeserob5027]

@@TheDemonChara at higher levels Mac mains have been learning to mix up their side B. It's not as bad a detriment as some people (*cough cough* ZeRo *cough cough*) say

[@TheDemonChara]

@@obeserob5027 Yeah, I forgot to mention that little fact. You're right

[@louisalzate6185]

that intro tho

[@marshtomp8]

Somehow I knew Charizard's buff would be some variation of "You can swap and not play charizard anymore!"

[@HeyItsAmper]

The changes to PK Freeze turned Lucas from a character I largely ignored in Brawl and didn't bother downloading in Smash 4 to one of my favourite characters in Ultimate.

[@peteypiranalover]

I love the Bayonetta meme at the end

[@curryinahurry2939]

As an Ike main, I am a little disappointed that there wasn’t an actual explanation.
