Robin definitely deserves more love than he gets - he’s so much fun and offers such an interesting and unique challenge to the game that most of the characters that are generally “popular” can’t compete with. He offers so much creativity with combos and kills, and is easily one of the coolest characters in the game in my opinion. Seeing him finally get some love is awesome, and I hope more players start to see the fun he offers.

I feel like Robin is one of the most underrated characters in this game. Considering the potential Link gets just from being able to z-drop his remote bomb, Robin could be absolutely insane when you consider having two sets of aerials and projectiles. If Robin wasn’t one of the three slowest characters in the game, I can see a timeline where Robin was a common pick in competitive play.

I love how this video is just hopcat falling for some of my favorite underrated characters. Like these are all points for why I fell for them too. Pac gets hate for camping but he's such a good close range character and he's more fun than other zoners because EVERYTHING in his kit can interact with each other so there's so much you can do that feels good to put together. Corrin is hands down one of the most unique Swordies overall, counter is perfect for calling out dair spammers like G&W or Bowser since it sends up, every tilt and aerial has a natural feeling followup, and all their specials are unique concepts like stage/wall piercing Pin and stun projectile followed by an optional heavy hit Toon link is the least mashy link, he has no overly safe move so his combos with bombs and boomerang actually feel like something you earned and there's no safe option (Link/Yink nair) that you feel is a solution to literally any problem.

7:05 the reason why this happens is because in smash ult, if the opponent is in hitstun when they enter the bottom blastzone they die immediately. So in the specific clip you showed, or on any stage with a close bottom blast zone really, as long as you're still in the dair when you enter it with the opponent they will just instantly explode. Very cool mechanic, Sakurai, thank you.

Robin is easily one of my favorite characters. They’re so fun to play, and have a lot of unique aspects that are really rewarding to learn. Though having your aerials hit like Bowser back air 50% of the match, and hitting like Little Mac the rest of the time takes some getting used to.

Some Corrin tips. Back Air can help recover if facing towards the stage. If you're not facing towards the stage you can side b to turn yourself around 1st. If you jump off down air you can make if back to ledge but with a very specific set of circumstances. You have to be facing backwards when jumping off so you can magnet hands the ledge when you come back up, you have to time the down air, jump then up b pretty tight and you have to angle up b backwards. Hope this was helpful for anyone who read this.

My thoughts on these four: I’m not a Pac-Man main, but whenever I play him the matches get so fun. The diversity of the bonus fruit make sure you have something for almost any situations. I used to play Corrin as my secondary, but now I only play her occasionally due to finding characters I like playing more but I still play her some and it’s always fun. Plus, my friends always get mad when I play Corrin and it’s kinda funny Ngl. My little brother mains Toon Link but never really knew the best way to play him, so your advice after testing him out is going to help my brother get better at his character a lot. Robin was someone I played a TON in 4 and early Ultimate. I still play her some nowadays but not as much as I used to, but she’s still very fun to use. I’m honestly surprised she’s as looked over as she is since she was the first non-swordfighter Fire Emblem character which people love to complain about.

you know when you mentioned great blue, it really brought back a memory I had suppressed for a long time. one that I would forget subconsciously because of the sleepless nights it had caused. It's coming back to me now, I remember if distinctly. It was that damn Weapon Reskins in TF2 have always seemed like a strange case to me. On one hand if you like how a weapon works but hate how it looks it's nice to have another option to choose from. But on the other hand, reskins usually look like they would function differently from their counterpart. And I've always thought it would be neat if cool looking weapons like the maul had more of an identity than "Its the Homewrecker but for rich people" So I took a large number of weapon reskins currently available in the game and gave them their own set of stats ranging from "Slightly modified side grade to the original" to "Completely new weapon idea that's not balanced at all but a ton of fun."

I would love to see this become a series and not just highlight the Characters you gained newfound appreciation of, but like the outro, also demonstrate ones that just genuinely didn't click with you. I like the idea of stepping outside of one's biases and trying to see why people would love these characters, even if they aren't your thing. I think a good next pick, for my biases at least, would be Belmont. Simon, personally, but Richter works just as well. Simon and Richter have been much maligned for being lame due to having so many projectiles, and that is most of what people focus on them for: Projectile spam. I find it personally more rewarding to play them like I'm playing a Castlevania game, or as an example from this video, the way you approached Toon Link. The focus is the Vampire Killer, and getting the big damage there. The Subweapons (Cross, Axe, and Holy Water) are there to control space and apply pressure to bait mistakes or approach from angles that the opponent isn't prepared for. Throwing Cross backwards to have it travel further towards the opponent to potentially combo break, lobbing Axes at odd angles to drastically disrupt an approach, or catch your foe off stage in a way they can't avoid anymore. All to get thet Whip to land exactly where you want, WHEN you want. You are the Vampire Hunter, and THEY are the Hunted.

I think you should give Zelda a try. She has an unfair reputation of being exclusively "run away to charge Phantom" but that's just the default online mode because that's the easiest way to play her. If you watch Nairo play her then he's super aggressive and rarely presses the B button at all, and Silinator's Zelda is more balanced in the projectile use but doesn't look lame when he's playing it. I'd also recommend Kirby. He suffers from the same challenge that Robin does with the speed, but one of the reasons I find him so fun to play is there are about a hundred reliable setups into inhale, meaning even a middling Kirby can ALWAYS get the copy ability if they want to. And Kirby gets a lot of mileage out of some of them!

My favorite thing about Corrin that went unmentioned here is her charging hitbox on forward smash. It makes for such a powerful ledge trap setup, or spot dodge read. My favorite Robin thing that went unmentioned is how dummy strong her gentleman's jab is. The rapid jab is pretty nuts too, but jab 3 with the fire book takes stocks at such criminal percents for a move that combos off something as safe and fast as jab 1. Budget Terry. Also appreciate seeing some Toon Link love. I think he's easily one of the most slept on characters.

7:06 When being spiked, the edge of the screen becomes the blast zone. So, the reason the K. Rool died first is because he got hit by a spike and died from the screen border blast zone before you could reach the actual blast zone. I don't think it spikes the whole way through, I think it just drags down. So that's why you sometimes die first, and sometimes die second. If your opponent dies first, you've probably landed a spike hitbox. If you die first, it must've been a later hit in the move that doesn't spike.

Hell yeah, Corrin and Toon Link are some of my favorite characters to play (although I do recognize that I only really pick Toon Link over the others because I like the art style), and I do think Pac-Man and Robin are both pretty dope to play, even if I don't feel like I've ever gotten particularly good at either. I am also a psycho that plays male Corrin...... it helps that one of his victory lines is him going "I WIN!" in this way that reminds me of CD-i Link and makes me laugh every time (female Corrin has an equivalent with similar energy where she just says "Good." that I do also enjoy, and I do tend to swap between the two depending on what I'm feeling, but yes).

As someone who plays Pac-Man, mainly for fun, it's nice to hear he could be coming back to the channel. I think that Sonic could be cool to see return. As a Sonic main, I feel like you might have more fun with the aggressive rushdown style of Sonic rather than the run away campy style. The combos as Sonic are amazing, and I would definitely suggest going off stage a lot considering Sonic can make it back pretty easily. Down B is also a great combo starter, as it is a multihit and will drag opponents with you. Just do it, jump, and then F-Air and you get a pretty solid amount of damage. Overall, I just kinda want to see some more Sonic, and if you play him as an aggressive, glass cannon, rushdown character, you'll probably have a lot more fun.

When it comes to Robin, I think more than them being another FE character (they were only the 4th added, so fatigue hadn’t really set in yet) or being from the least popular Smash game, they get so overlooked because they’re a fairly complex character thanks to the resource management aspect and the two swords being controlled with tilt and smash attack inputs, but they’ve never really been, well, good enough to justify getting over that initial hurdle for newer players. A lot of overlooked characters in Smash (ICs, Wii Fit, Rosalina, Duck Hunt, and Plant to name a few examples) fall into a similar category where they have that perfect mix of being weird or complex enough that they don’t have a ton of casual players, and bad enough that they don’t get many competitive players either.

If you do do another one of these, I think a great character to try would be Shishyo's Mii Swordifghter set, 2213 - Shuriken of Light, Gale Stab, Stone Scabbard, Power Thrust. It makes Mii Swordfighter essentially just Pikachu, but you can combo TJolt into a Falcon Kick that kills at 80

I think that the moral of this vid is that every character in this game is fun, you just have to find a way to make them fit you. Also, please try Rosa, you’ll be shocked by how easy and fun it is to use Luma without knowing the techs.

This reminded me when I started playing Snake and Zelda, I think they are actually fun characters, but 90% of players use then in a not fun way. They actually have some good up close tools to fight with, which can make up for some hype plays, along with the same applying pressure concept as Toon Link. You should give them a try 👍

There's lots of properties with Pac-Man items that go unnoticed. Hydrant has a health pool if you attack for half it's health the next attack with knock the hydrant so a b-air will prime it, then the next hard hit will release the Hydrant. With that said. Throwing an apple last will change the trajectory upwards for mix up potential. Also players instinctively want to attack the hydrant, so leaving it as bait then attacking opponents when they make the attempt is smart. (even if you tell someone they still instinctively attack it) Leaving a trampoline on stage is good for stage control, causing players to jump over it, a red trampoline will cause any player to trip. It's also the only thing in game that will cause banjo to trip during wonder wing, it can also absorb full charge shots like Samus neutral B

Robin's projectiles get eaten up by every attack because to beat a projectile your attack needs to be within a certain % of their damage, but most of Robin's projectiles are multihits so the damage they are set as having is something like 3-4%

I'm glad to see some love for my mains, Robin and Toon Link. I find a lot of fun in playing both aggressively, as they're not really a character people expect aggression from. Robin in particular is fun to do this with, cause she's got so many options to play slower for a second and throw off your opponent's rhythm

Banjo is possibly the hardest character to get full use out of, yeah some are more technical at base but banjos learning curve to reach higher levels is crazy hard seeing as how little damage he does and his combos being so technical for minimal percents. Also his most important tech the breegull blaster turn around cancel is super hard to consistently get.

For me the character I fell in love with very late was Mii Gunner. First and foremost with the best recovery up-b and it’s naturally surprisingly high weight Gunner like Ridley is always coming back. Also the shorter size just makes a lot of the Samogg moves hit better. I like the Flame Piller, Gimp Laser and Reflector for the other three moves and you can really play Gunner well both up close and obviously at range. Also the Fallout Pip Boy skin is amazing to me and was a dream to see that in Smash.

Not sure if you did it while playing as him but when playing Banjo picking up your grenades to throw at your opponent is what makes the character fun for me, since you can combo out of it and leads to some interesting interactions
