HOW TO GET ELITE SMASH WITH MARIO!

[@ElliottAlbright]

As someone who exists solely within the 2 mil GSP range, I can confirm that this is NOT what low GSP looks like in America. People are shielding, grabbing, comboing at 2 mil

[@sploder1238]

Its probably time of day. Im in low gsp with a few of my favorites, and when I play late at night, everyone is a little more sweaty. I'm not sure, but that might be it.

[@RamonAlonsoLopezMartinez]

Yeah America is special and everyone plays smash better there huh?

[@legionssb]

I was gonna say this, 3 mil gsp in Australia is like lvl 3 CPU’s. Some people in the 3 mil range in the us are actually really good.

[@owencollins8338]

@@RamonAlonsoLopezMartinez it’s because there are a lot more people playing

[@ArclinusCastoral]

There's definitely a difference in skill level based on what time it is, in my experience. I catch way easier opponents in the early, early morning than any other time.

[@lucasoliva9208]

Interesting idea for unlocking characters if the series is meant to continue.....what if Jordan ends every episode doing a quick battle to see who the game allows him to unlock? It adds intrigue and mystery to who could be next!

[@punkrockvomit7344]

alpharad deluxe moment. but jokes aside i really like that format.

[@Reze39]

Poppt every match: I should really check my rule set Also poppt: Doesn't do it and then complaints about it 15 min straight

[@justinbrown7622]

I wonder how a "How to get Kazuya into elite smash" Would look like? He would have to teach himself first before us xD

[@wilhelmisaac]

Bro, getting Kazuya into elite smash is super easy. Just be a lvl 9 CPU, duh

[@owlbback780]

Do it Jordan... You wont

[@rubiks8975]

The funny thing is that jordan puts so much attention into spacing and punishing. How can he be a bad kazuya?

[@CommentPositionInformer]

@@rubiks8975 s Spacing doesn't mean much when you can't use the correct moves to take advantage of it. Poppt1 really struggles getting the move he wants, or just finding the correct move. He ends up smash attacking three times in a row out of desperation, and that's hardly optimal Kazuya.

[@carson2258]

The next episode of this series should switch up the character type again - maybe a heavy (DK or plant), or a zoner (Samus, banjo, Steve)

[@PassTheMic2006]

Wait, Steve’s a zoner? I thought that Steve was more of a trapper.

[@xstian]

Personally I'd like to see DK

[@lukebyru1520]

Plants a heavy??? Lmao

[@xstian]

@@lukebyru1520 even heavier than ridley lol

[@skyblock64]

After my 3 years of having Ultimate and being at 10 mil GSP with Kirby, I never knew plant was a heavy!

[@Lunch_ROK]

2:19 Charizard used to get jab locked out of Flare Blitz tumble in Smash 4. In Ult, they changed it so any hit that’d lock would only prop him up instead

[@TurtleExe]

use pit next, it'll be interesting to see what they'll do against the arrows and multiple jumps

[@inthedesertoutdoors]

This is such a fun series, and it’s cool that you are continuing the legacy of Little Z doing elite smash runs. Keep it up Poppt!

[@ArclinusCastoral]

This video was especially informative. I hope we can see more of the entertaining gameplay with the useful commentary over it. As a mid-GSP warrior, I love the skill-dependant information because not everyone is crazy-precise or knows every kill confirm.

[@Bob__Yosh]

I hope this series continues. Its super helpful!

[@rocco2246]

I think that most low level players lack a good neutral or have really bad neutral habits, that's why i think you should do Lucina, very simple character and very neutral centered

[@smiar3]

I believe everyone should play lucina for a bit she can help you do things like edge guard and simple things you don't have to main her just play her to learn things

[@MiaTheSpinoQueen]

Poppt: Although I do not appreciate this American flag skin, we're in Australia! Australian flag: Is red, white, and blue, with stars

[@Sonic-9201]

14:34 Super-Man? Nah, Super-Mario!

[@missingno_LLC]

I always love these videos of Jordan playing these characters/characters with a playstyle and going in-depth giving examples of what you need to do in a real matchup situation. Also the character we need tips on is Kazuya. ;)

[@theodornikolasvogiatzis7886]

The Gladiator scene was so well put! I loved it.

[@KayKwasa]

Gotta admit, getting Mario in Elite Smash is rather hard, Mario may not have any weakness, but he doesn't have any strengths; Jack-of-all-stats, master of none

[@pinkzki6473]

I love these videos and how you dissect other players bad habits. Like it’s so eye opening. Cause it’s not just like “oh they roll on ledge every time” bad habits, it’s like “oh they attack then shield” like it’s not just one button bad habits, it’s a small sequence that you are able to sought out and to me that is really interesting how you see it, exploit it and you do it like really fast. Like it takes me a couple of games to see bad habits and I never see like those neutral bad habits. It’s usually ledge options or rolls.

[@WWCarnageD]

I loved this series from little z. I'm glad to see someone else bring it back. Even cooler it's from a more competitive mind set. Keep em coming!

[@Spyder-Marth]

I was salty about constantly losing to a Hero who almost always got Psyche Up, Crits, Oomph, etc... but this upload made me feel leagues better. Thanks for continuing this series! Guess I should've used Mario 🤷

[@LazyStarrfish]

I’m really liking this series. This was very helpful as I’m trying to take my Mario to the intermediate level. Also, I would say pick an archetype that you want to play and then just see who fits the bill roster wise

[@amirPenton]

I think Donkey Kong next would be cool (honestly wouldn’t be opposed to just going in roster order excluding Kirby). Really love this channel, it’s really underrated & a hidden gem. Hope you get more subscribers/support & have a great 2022

[@Super_Saiyen_Potato]

Dude, i know im just one guy, but PLEASE continue bringing characters to Elite!!!! Youre so good and i love seeing the process.

[@jokeer722]

I didnt even noticed that I watched through the video from start to end. It was super entertaining! Keep it up.

[@furo8432]

Would love to see this series continue!! Keep up the good work! Mabye the Wolf next time? Would to see your Wolf in action again

[@alexwright290]

The sub/non-sub cut scene is so funny. Good edit, good job

[@danecrouse2903]

Another fantastic episode of this series. Hope it continues!! Maybe Greninja, Wolf, or Byleth next?

[@cliffordthomas8305]

yes i love these characters

[@ChrisPepper1989]

*cries in has no characters in elite smash * Seriously though this was both fun and really educational, I'd love to see more in this series :)

[@edoardofrezza9950]

this is such a cool series. I learn so much!

[@CommentPositionInformer]

So, Poppt lost at 4 mil GSP, with his Mario, to one of the worst moves in the game. At least the Yoshi didn't hit him with the "Well Played"

[@jakebrown6639]

You’ve got to do Ganon, after watching you just stomp the competition in that last tournament with him I’m really interested in hearing about your process with him. Love the videos man

[@14ndCounting]

If u ever unlock mii brawler, I would like to see how you get them into elite smash. Love the context poppt! Your my favorite smash KZbinr!

[@crablord8499]

Thanks for the video, I really needed this. I struggle to win any match within 3-5 mil since in America people are actually pretty good at that range. I am the definition of casual, but I want to start getting more into competitive smash. Could you maybe do one for Bowser? He's the character that I want to get into elite smash, but I struggle so much. Loved the video, keep up the good work.

[@toastedtarts4044]

Thanks for showing your tips, but i don’t think there’s any more buffs with the last patch passing. Also i wanted to add your channel is great. You give help on playing this game. Other channels don’t do that as much

[@TheQueensAce719]

Fun fact Poppt1 probably didn't notice was that the Link player at 5:31 is the same blue Yoshi that cheesed him in Sudden Death. So Poppt1 definitely got his revenge although he doesn't know.

[@EllaEllaAudios]

Your videos are helping me get through some hard times, keep up with the great content Poppt♥️

[@Praxicaeon]

This has quickly become one of my favorite series on the channel. Would love to see some Jigglypuff personally. Ps thank you for finally checking your settings 🤣

[@howedaddy6122]

This series is really helpful! I'd love to see Ness next

[@phillip4107]

This series helps me so much! Thank you! I would love to see a Joker “guide” please, as I’m apparently doing something wrong with my play style that I still didn’t get him into Elite Smash

[@sillysailorofgreenhills5592]

same

[@picklejar7245]

Try to practice his combos. First hit forward air drag down up air to downsmash is one, down throw up air drag down chains,, etc. Also make sure to keep a download on everything your opponent does. How they recover, how they react to a tech chase, how they get off of ledge, If they spot dodge or roll a lot, etc. A ton of quick play players will double jump immediately offstage so try to read those bad jumps as well. Hope this helps a little

[@phillip4107]

@@picklejar7245 my problem is more like not being able to play neutral that good. I’ve already learned the combos, but tbh I’m panicking too much in the last stock situation, so I couldn’t even use it

[@smiar3]

@@phillip4107 Joker gun can't be reflected or anything so you can use it in neutral and not have to worry about it being reflected but watch player play Joker and learn from them

[@DaRkLoRd-rc5yu]

@@phillip4107 being good at neutral means knowing the whole cast's hit boxes and frame data. So you know what options they have, how long it lasts, how to dodge it and which ones you can punish. One piece of advice is sometimes the best thing you can do is not throw out an attack. As attacks put you in end lag/lock you in one spot in an animation. So waiting to put out a move until you know it will hit. Or shielding, as shield is only 1 frame to put up and a couple frames to drop. Also the best thing to in disadvantage state is di and move away and try to reset to neutral. Or reverse the advantage state and put pressure on them when they've wiffed and start your own combo in response.

[@nicholas1250]

I would love to see pt, thank you so much for making these!!

[@theshyguy9855]

the next character to get into elite smash should definetly be Kazuya. i feel like that would make for an entertaining video

In your last 20 videos, only three of them have no words fully capitalised in the title. Nice.

Oh, hey, I encountered that sax guy too! I think I also played a “Jordan” at some point, but I’ll have to check.

[@Jouch_Couch]

Maybe go with a heavy next. I'd love to hear your thoughts on a character like K Rool or even Charizard! Whatever you choose to do, I'm sure I'll love it. I started watching your channel after seeing you on the Underdogs back when it started off and dang, I'm loving these vids!

[@diddles4746]

this is a great series would love to see more 😁 I would like to see a character like Plant, DK or Bowser up next. heavys are fun haha

[@adamdonkeykong3whocares749]

Idea bring pyra and mythra to a tournament since they are top tier and you used to play lucina

[@shiningskies47]

So unrelated but Im 1000 hours into this game and I am only just now realizing that you dont have to wait for the dash animation to stop before you can shield, you can just shield mid dash without returning the stick to neutral and just shield immediately...

[@fringusbeefstick5217]

To unlock all the characters quickly is fighting an unlock battle, lose, then go to games and more and you can go into the gate icon that shows up and you can just fight every character in a row without playing hours

[@MarkWatneyWasHere]

I like all the little bits of advice strewn about the video. They're very helpful

[@rreeeekk]

I don't see a lot of people mentioning it but I love the editing! Good shit Poppt (if you're editing your own shit these days)

[@mikael100100]

this video comes in REALLY handy, especially from a tournament player, because i've set up myself to try and get everyone to elite smash. Mario is giving me so much trouble, i've resorted to use items... T_T i GENUINELY hope that you will do every characters. deeply! you should do it in rows. from left to right, every characters in order ^^

[@Andres183_]

I think if you do another combo heavy character, especially one like Mario, you should do a little bit of explanation of how to play them and some combos rather than just explaining others' bad habits. Still a great video as always!

[@yerai3125]

Love this series, man! Hope there's more on the way c:

[@derpiestdude1097]

dr.mario players seeing that up air sends upwards, forward air spikes, and that mario has a better recovery

[@iswiftyfox8997]

You should do different archetypes, youce down 2 rushdown combos. Maybe a heavy, a swordie, a zoner next? or better idea, do pokemon trainer. 3 Characters in one and multiple archytpes in one squirtle is a rushdown combo, ivysaur is really mix of a lot, he has a good projectile, good combos, and is good at killing, and charizard is a classic heavy.

[@carsonheckman8826]

I don’t know if there’s a greater pain than getting Mario comboed as a superheavy online

[@pl3ysnontinde937]

2 years ago I actually started on 100k with Mario. I’ve been in elite for a while now but it’s cool watching this and remembering

[@saltocorto]

Quickplay in Australia is very different than in America. I'm almost positive that I get less GSP per win than you do and I'm way more likely to run into some random guy with crazy combos. It does kind of normalize once you get above like 8 mil or so, but if you have any characters below that, it's pretty much random garbage.

[@raidersfromsnow]

I am not fully sure how GSP works but I’m fairly certain it got some hidden stats to calculate how much you gain. For example if you win on a character you have never played with before you gain way more than lets say a character you have played for hours on. This is to counteract smurfing and making players not gain too much gsp and suddenly get demolished by someone way higher gsp than they are supposed to be at. This is why you see vids where people win one or two games and hit elite smash, or they lose once and have to suddenly grind for it.

[@saltocorto]

@@raidersfromsnow I am aware of that effect, but even later on he seemed to change by larger amounts than I expected. It could have just been me misjudging, though.

[@raidersfromsnow]

​@@saltocorto Maybe, cant really tell myself since GSP is such a weird system, and its been a while since I didnt have every character in elite smash so I dont fully remember what it was like when climbing.

[@Jackaljkljkl]

That Luigi didn't have time to disconnect on that second occasion, but might have known he would be facing a ban if he did anyway. Star KO's on the winning kill are the problem, as the losing player has far more time to disconnect.

[@Dbrano3]

I really like this series but I wish you broke it down a bit more. There are several times where you mention they are doing something but your editor either cuts it out or doesnt show all of it. I think it would be better to do it like you are (commentating while playing) but then specifically pick matches/segments of matches tk highligt what you are identifying in your opponent play style. It would also give you a good opportunity to specifically show matches or bad matches vs a play style. And I would like to see DK or Joker or byleth next:)

From what I can gather, if you block a disconnecter they won't appear in your queue again so you can at least avoid the risk of another disconnect

[@elijahrankin5306]

I suggest you do a video where you and one of the underdogs, or holly, unlock all the characters on the account, good vid and you can continue this series easier. Also I suggest either doing a really easy character like DK or do like a hard character and play ice climbers so we can watch you suffer.
