You didnt mention that you can aim up and backwards with his cannon after the suck, didnt cover super armor on hus down smash and i believe his up and down airs, other than that great vid

[@cheezyboy2511]

Andrew Oodles Its insulting. I understand that it's hard to make a guide when you don't play with that character a lot, but when you try to make a guide and it's not covering 95%+ of the bases it's not worth making. Way too much information is missing, I'm glad I don't watch videos to learn how to play lmfao.

[@hugotharador4898]

It is a sort of last second input kind of like changing sides with a falcon punch or warlock punch.

[@inthedesertoutdoors]

Did u not read the title when it said “ basics”?

[@salahudeenarunkumar4283]

@@cheezyboy2511 he isnt missing 95%. it more like he did 95%, but missed 5%.

[@tillerisagod8572]

I had really ignored king k rool until a couple of days ago and now he might be the character I’m best with. And watching this certainly helped. Thank you!

[@darealkiawe]

Try greninja he is broken

[@wyatttodd5556]

Choctopus your videos contain lots of good information with move properties and have helped me a good bit. But, you need to know more about the character before posting a guide about them. You were missing just about every combo he has, you missed a lot of properties in moves such as the U-Smash top hitbox and D-Smash and Side-B having belly armor, and some of your terminology was lacking. It would be better if it were not posted as the "COMPLETE" guide. This is not intended as hate. You have a fair amount of subscribers which means a lot of people that trust your content. I don't want people to be mislead or lacking in character knowledge. I hope you have a wonderful day today!

[@Choctopus]

Appreciate the feedback. Always looking to improve!

[@theunofficialfpsbalancetea5915]

Choctopus you also didn’t add that his counter is also a reflector

[@dennis07reyes]

I didn't know that!

[@retrokingranch]

@Wyatt Todd Lmao crownerang doesn't have belly armor. Nor is it super armor. It's just normal hard armor like little mac's neutral b (with empty ko meter).

King K. Rool is my favorite video game character of all time, so when he got revealed, I lost it. I hadn't played the previous two Smash games at all, so I was kind of "out" of the series, but I waited up until midnight to play this game on release day JUST because of him, so as you can imagine, he's who I play the most. It upsets me to see how low he is on tier lists, but I don't care, I love him.

[@lamogetrektlittlekidlol5757]

whenever I’m doubt, just use nair, it’s SO good

[@mr.shinypikachu4351]

I'm pretty sure King K. Rool's counter also reflects projectiles. I've sent missiles and charge shots back at Samus. I'm not sure if every character's counter can reflect projectiles, though. Nice video!

[@kirbyquartz5609]

King K Rool is actually one of few characters to have a reflector and counter in the same move

[@doctorprepologedyedeyadede3542]

also bonks arrows back

My friend told me I would like playing King K Rool in Smash Ultimate and I found myself actualy enjoying it(Im not a fan of smash as I dont full understand the controls). It really helps that this series exists allowing me to figure out how to probperly play him when my friends and I play again

[@henkiestudios5117]

0:38 What happened to the King Kruzer I? 😭💀

[@MKMurmur]

I don't think the Down B can be broken by strong attacks; the whole point of it is to use it against strong attacks. It's the other belly armor moves that can be broken by strong attacks. It's also worth noting that the Down B can reflect projectiles. This guide was a decent overview but I went in hoping to get a bit more out of it (e.g. bread and butter combos, matchup tips, stage preferences, that sort of thing).

[@hydroidprime_2897]

Wii Fit's Soccer Ball breaks K. Rool's armor, no matter the armor health or what move he's using.

[@brycetobiasson1277]

@@hydroidprime_2897I doubt that is true. There are moves that can one-shot the armor, but that is not one of them.

[@finalbossd]

His counter also doubles as a reflector, which you can use to stomp projectile users.

[@Established2768]

Using directional input. You can shoot the ball and characters up or behind you. Not down

[@SaltymanGaming]

Down Air to up smash and either up throw to up air can kill at certain percents. Down tilt/down throw, down tilt, forward air is better than down tilt or down throw to jab at lower percents. You can also combo multiple sh Bairs thanks to the changes the grounded meteor smashes. Same with dair to bair.

[@SaltymanGaming]

Spamming his super armour moves can end up being your downfall though. Ivysaurs up smash is quite deadly to King K. Rool..

[@pyrothelanky7453]

Oh good times, back when we thought k rool was broken

[@atuaangie5160]

His neutral air is just a floating hitbox. His up air can *recover* Hes still broken, just a bit less now.

[@pyrothelanky7453]

@@atuaangie5160 I have no words for you if you STILL think this character is broken. It's one thing to say you struggle with a matchup, it's another to call them broken because you don't know how to deal.

[@atuaangie5160]

@@pyrothelanky7453 When he got nerfed, people dropped him instantly. He still has great potential,as I said, it's just harder. His spikes are one of his new strong points. Were both intitled to our opinions and we each conform to our own playstyles.

[@dragonic_puppy1700]

4:20 i just picked up k. Rool a few days ago, i discovered that when you use his musket to suck up the enemy, you can angel it backwards and upwards, not so sure on downwards

[@boomeronet7888]

His down smash has super armour too Even one of his taunts has super armour Also note: the down throw puts people in the ground for half the time as the down tilt, considering it's easier to pull off this makes sense

[@jubaugga]

You forgot to mention that when sucking up an opponent or the canon ball, you can aim it 45 degrees, 90 degrees and 135 degrees, depending on where you tilt your joystick

[@GlobusTheGreat]

Also fthrow combos into dash attack or dash->uptilt/jab. Fthrow dash attack is a cool 30%, though it might not always hit if they DI away as percents start to rise.

[@HelterwithoutSkelter]

[@randominternetguy1499]

Do Game and Watch Next!

[@enderscreech99whodaenderma71]

You can actually angle his neutral special and all you have to do is after you suck something up being a player or a cannonball then you just angle it in that direction and I’m pretty sure you can angle it straight up but I do know you can shoot them backwards

[@suki-artsanimations807]

Honestly I think he's a good character but I think his up B needs to be nerfed as he gets like no conditions to go up that high and is really hard to keep down or off the stage on my opinion

[@l8on8or164]

When you suck up the cannonball into the blunderbuss, you can shoot it forward or back at 45°, and straight up. Not just forward 45°

[@maxumile3124]

6:50 okay phil swift

[@shrom6753]

I like his up throw the best beacose I can combo it to a up air and then another up air or a forward air I never really use his down throw and his back throw can go pretty far

I need to k wow what button how to use them not the attacks

[@bencharles1747]

you press attack (A) while holding your joystick in the specified direction. For smash attacks, push the left joystick all the way to the edge. For tilt attacks, just tilt it, don't push it the whole way. There are also neutral attacks, where you don't push the joystick at all. The same rules are applicable for air attacks. For special's press B while pushing the left joystick in the specified direction. For the dash attack, push the joystick in whatever direction you want to go in twice in a row, and then press your attack button (A). Hope this helps!

[@Jofinity]

How. On Earth. Do you do. A tilt?!?

[@puppy886]

Tech Gamer basically tilt the stick half way or so and attack, you could also turn on tilt stick by changing your c stick to tilt attack in the controls. It will do them automatically
