I Played the Worst Character in a Smash Bros TOURNAMENT

[@Poppt1]

Please please like the video and share if you enjoyed, it helps out so much 😊

[@Monkeyking-yh7sq]

It was so good you should continue

[@joshuamarkowitz5183]

Hey Poppt1. I liked the format but it would probably be more enjoyable for both the viewers and more profitable for you if you released a video/day for your training arc. This would allow us to be part of the experience with you and wouldn’t require us to sit through a 30+ minute video. I’m happy to do that, but you have to think about your audience as a whole. Most people want a quick break from life through a 15 min video. It’s less of a commitment so they are more likely to watch through the whole video. If you’re interested in how this format would look, then watch Ryan Trayhan’s “Deliver a penny to Mr. Beast challenge series.” In this series we followed him throughout his journey. It gained significant traction in the KZbin community. Big fan of your channel and the rest of the Underdogs. Keep working hard!

Also perhaps for this next one try Luigi! I can just feel that one will be insane.

why would anyone want to put time into a character like little mac... right guys? 🥴 great video man thanks for reaching out to me for this it was a lot of fun

[@TheGamingLegendsOfficial]

wild that I played you before you popped off in the smash scene. I didn't do well but hey friendlies on MSC amirite lol

[@SmashJEFF]

I'm thinking about picking him up, just cause he's kinda fun to play

[@Matpit18]

I loved this video, Poppt. It wasn’t like every other “Played with *insert character* at a Tournament” video. This really felt like I was watching a movie. It showed your entire journey on your way to becoming a good Little Mac and also a lot of lessons about mental mindsets that you learned along the way. This is by far my favorite one of these videos that you’ve made. Keep making great stuff, man.

You couldnt said it better! Same

[@connergoldsborough4093]

Hey poppt! Absolutely love these kinds of videos! Would absolutely love to see many more videos of characters trained up for a tournament!

[@roropoke123]

poppt1 should play pit at his next tournamet

[@I.Need.Sleep_HELP]

@@roropoke123 NOOOO

[@yoboij2377]

What about a Shoto? That would be interesting

[@testpermanent417]

This is not what I was expecting from a little Mac video. A lot more introspective. Very cool, keep up the good work!

[@FattyMcFloyd]

Love the theme and direction of this video! I enjoy the process of learning and it was great to see the ups and downs. I have been watching your daily uploads for the last two years and the quality and effort put into this is something I really appreciate! Great work

[@evansalerno3694]

The amount of time and effort that went into this video is astounding. Fantastic job Poppt

[@channelname12616]

You can tell this video has lots of effort put in to it and i love it!

[@IXxJunoxXI]

This must be my favorite video an this channel. The little cuts from the normal life of poppt really made it all look like a documentary. Also so music was on point. Keep up the good work, hope for new videos like this!

[@flareonflyer2108]

Poppt this video is so well put together you and craw did an outstanding job!!!!!

[@TCNick3]

Ayy my raid made a cameo at 4:09 😎 oh and the vid was great too!!

[@Gio2321_]

Who is this guy? Hm. Must not be important

[@starkiller4557]

I underestimated poppt’s genuine passion and love for this game, he treats it just like a sport. This was quite the journey, and I think he actually grew from it. He acknowledged his failures and learned how to improve upon them, not just in game, but in real life as well. Not only did he give it his all in this challenge, he still kept up with his daily life such as chores and dates with Holly. You are a truly honorable man, now go take a 2 month vacation. Love you, brother

[@danliuchicago]

This video was the best one yet, and love how Poppt is expanding his vocabulary to be more friendly to newer audiences

[@5hyguy42]

I noticed that as well

[@xavieroliveira8653]

Incredible video Poppt! The video tells a story, teaches you new tips and advises. Keep these kind of amazing work.

[@itstheeiz]

actually almost cried. this video is so well organized. i absolutely loved the psychological aspect of not being upset and learning from your mistakes. which can be used in the real world

[@Sillintor]

2:36 FLY ME TO THE MOON EDIT: Just finished the full video. Great storytelling and you did really well at the tournaments for learning Little Mac for such a short amount of time!

[@gamexpert1990]

31:27 Thank you for that little speech. I'm entering into my first ever Smash tournament next weekend, just a very small local thing, so I think I kinda needed to hear that.

[@AshenDemon]

12:57 Short answer: because Kazuya is broken Long answer: because Sakurai likes making Kazuya broken.

[@timob1681]

I haven't even gotten halfway through the video, and this is already my favorite poppt1 video ever released. the format, pacing, and editing are really great and you can tell a ton of effort went into it. really great job man :)

[@FatMat5695]

loved the style of this video. the dedication and talking through the mental process was actually inspirational. hope this series continues

[@GamerTimeNinja]

Great video poppt... I just wanted to ask if you could play your sephiroth for your next tournament video. I have been working on getting better with my sephiroth and I watched your tutorial videos on him as well and I believe that seeing you play him in a competitive environment would really show me ways to improve my sephiroth. I know he isn't really a LOW TIER FUNNY CHARACTER, but it would mean a lot to me man. 😅

[@ejac777]

Nice video, keep going with this kind of stuff ^^ Try to play difficult games like Spelunky or Noita, Rougelikes are fun to watch lol

[@fettuccine9722]

I really liked this new style, looking forward to more!

[@JacKAsterisK]

I'm a long time viewer and I love this direction! My favorites of yours have been the major tourney set analyses and the "can I win a tourney with x character". This has elements of both of those, being actual information and advise along with your own personal growth, but rolled in a great story. I didn't expect it, but using a more traditional sports story structure really worked awesomely!

[@joshkohut6444]

I watch all of your videos and I think this is one of your best ones. You did an amazing job of building emotion and really making us feel apart of the journey. I also felt like I was on this emotional journey with you and it just hit me different than other videos. I can tell so much time went into this video but I think it was well worth it. I would like to see more of these types of videos but I think they should be mixed with your normal content. They feel like special Easter Eggs and are fantastic when you find one. Amazing job!

[@kingfire90]

This entire video is truly a masterpiece. I loved the storytelling, the dedication and the effort to make a movie instead of a youtube video. 10/10 would watch again

[@bigboi3069]

This was easily my favorite of the tournament videos. Incorporating advice on the mental side of the game really helps

[@Madman_365]

I would LOVE for you to create more of these types of videos Poppt! Keep up the great content, it’s a personal highlight for me!

[@mase_loadingscreenmusic]

This was extremely insightful and inspiring, something I was not expecting from a Smash Bros. Challenge video. Thank you, Poppt for the refreshing and inspiring content!! ❤️

[@Spyder-Marth]

This video is pure genius and super inspiring! The editing, music, the cuts to Poppt1 outside of playing... oh my gosh this is awesome and inspiring! I want to become the best Marth, Zelda, and Corrin player, but I'm focusing on Marth right now. I even bought a bew control I absolutely LOVE. Thank you so much! Glad I subscribed!

[@milesmcmahon2249]

This is hands down one of the best videos Poppt1 has ever made! Love your content and keep up the good work!

[@aznpride0708]

Poppt you have some bangers but this one is by far the best one imo. The narration to the deep dive into your prep to your low points. Well done dude seriously it was awesome. Def more videos like this!

[@rodolfoabizares6034]

This was the best smash video I've seen in ages!! Pure gold content, awesome storytelling and editing

[@alicedufour9583]

Thanks for this vid Jordan! I really enjoyed this format and would love to see more like it. Pretty inspirational at points too. There's a surprising number of similarities between competitive Smash Bros and mental health battles as well, mainly in how it's a mind game against yourself more than anything.

[@ethan3562]

From a long time fan of the channel I really enjoyed this video and kept wanting to keep watching. I like how it's long and the parts of you after the tournament are probably my favorite. I do want to give some feedback only because I want you to grow. I think if your going to go in this direction you might want to explain more about the game/character at the beginning so we understand how it works and the risks and I think you going into more detail about what combos or strategies you used while training could be very cool to see. Thanks for the great video, absolutely loved it and love the way your expanding your channel, keep it up

[@Akira.2492]

I don't ever comment on videos, but I have to say it was pretty obvious how much more attention to detail you've put into this video. I immediately noticed the difference between this tournament video and the others, I loved it. Great work Poppt1!

[@Mr.Pixelated]

21:19 The way jarr just walks up to kick some ass as weegee is just funny to me

[@DOON_]

Great editing and idea towards something so simple. 10/10 good job poppt

[@kamatariedgar3603]

I´m 30 and played fighting games since always but tournaments scare the shit out of me... with covid i see a lot of Online tournaments and finally enter one (Street fighter), lose after lose after lose... your words make me feel better... the pressure of the moment, the studying but then my opponent doing something crazy, the sweat in my hands, everything is a con vs your coolness, your hard work and muscle memory, i have to see my last matches that i lost, will see what i did wrong. Thanks a lot Poppt1

[@flynnkellenbach901]

Sick Cool format, you can really see that influence from those videos where they try something for a week or whatever y'know. I think it's smart to make the smash mechanics clear for viewers who might not be familiar. Good video

[@alexlozhar6724]

Damn this video quality is crazy, you said you wanted to do more irl stuff like "I did X for a week, this is what I got" , and let me tell you: if this is how you gonna edit/ structure them, they will be amazing! Looking forward to what's next, keep up the good work!

[@ThatOneHermit]

Great video! I suggest trying out Rivals of Aether, it's another platform fighter like Smash, and it's on the Switch too!

[@bannles]

“Show ‘em what you got, Mac!” Really love the tournament content Poppt! Probably my favorite series of yours. Well, that or THE IRONMAN CHALLENGE!

[@Trials_MEDIA]

i decided to tune into a poppt video, since i haven't in a while and my god what a video to choose this was brilliantly made, and i love how you highlighted the mental journey it takes as a competitor - as someone who plays sports, and enjoys competitive smash, this was a great watch. keep it up!

[@smashenjoyer5451]

hey poppt i just would like to say u and little z have inspireed me to play smash and smash has gotten me through alot considering i probably got to the worst school in all of qld and smash has gotten me through alot and it just crazy to think the under dogs are literally so underated even though u guys are peak and i know its like 11:00 at night but if you could just see this it would make not just my day but my year sincearly ya boi jesse

[@smashenjoyer5451]

ps i didnt mean to repeat that smash has gotten me through alot soz

[@HeavyWalrus2]

3:07 I love this! This makes Elite smash feel a bit more like a Punch out game where your win lose ratio is recorded throughout the game

[@tylerhancock9239]

Wow Poppt this video was top notch. You went through your whole journey as Little Mac and it is very evident that a lot of work and effort was put into this vid. Easily the best vid in the I played __ at a tournament series and one of your best vids in general keep up the great work!

[@GrifVII]

Some really great insights Jordan! My coach always told me, “We win, or we learn” Great video, I loved it.

[@Wesley-76]

I went in thinking you were going to do some online practicing the day before and just wing it but...days of practice? Peanut coaching? Even if you lose, you can feel good knowing you gave it your best. Good job!

[@glensimpson1934]

I've been watching you're videos for a year now and I've loved your videos, but I think this is my favorite one so far. This is a great step in a new direction. I like getting to see the more serious side of you and your tournament experiences. Keep it up, Poppt1! I look forward to seeing where you go next.

[@Cmherrera6]

Once the Kazuya teabagged I imagined Poppt having his Michael Jordan “That’s when I took it personally” moment.

[@usetoothless9473]

As someone who places in the middle of every tournament I’ve played and who has been trying to practice and look over the VODs of my losses, this video was amazing. So good to see your mentality even in the face of not placing well. I really loved how up front you were with your advice. I did not expect to be helped by this video nearly as much as I was!

[@tobyga1929]

That moment when your unironically a little Mac main and can understand his montage about tech

[@monokuma9282]

Honestly this is one of the best video’s I have watched this ENTIRE YEAR. The editing is so clean and high quality and it is overall just a very good video. Props to poppit and I’m looking forward to the next video!

You and craw killed it. This is one of your best made videos to date, very enjoyable, and insightfuk

Hey poppt. I have to say this is one of your best videos so far. Awesome production and editing. Really enjoyed your whole process in preparing a character and going to a tournament! Thanks for all the content you make😁

The tension in parts of the video, from the editing and the dramatic way youre putting things :0 Well done 🙏🏻

[@bearticcromwell6005]

@Poppt1, this is, without a shadow of doubt, one of the best videos I have ever seen! Genuinely, like, legit from the bottom of my heart, I would love more content like this in the future. YOU'RE AMAZING, POPPT!!!!!

[@OrangeJJuice]

I’m a smash player, but I love the explanations so that non-smash people have enough background to follow the process with you and the video. Hopefully this can work well with other games, which you said in another video you want to try doing

[@jacksonstenborg5300]

I swear, watching the quality of these videos improve so much over the last 3 years is absolutely NUTS MAN! This is dope, and this was a great video! (Just try playing Mega Man like this, for me plz)

[@xandersimpson1959]

I love the new style of editing and general flow of the video. I hope it isn't too difficult to produce because I would love to see more of it.

[@lucayaki]

The autopilot thing is very interesting. I was having this conversation with my friend and we both came into the conclusion that pro players probably knew how to slow down the game to think through decisions instead of autopiloting, but it's interesting to know that it's probably the opposite

[@stlvoyeur90]

It's super helpful hearing the philosophy and breakdown of high level play! Please keep doing these!

[@tracq8494]

This was incredible! Love the vlog style combined with training content+tournament. Seems like you have found a really cool niche within all the smash youtube we are subjected to. Keep it up!:)

[@exavend1149]

This was an epic journey and even if I don’t like little Mac, that was amazing content! Please keep up making videos like that! I enjoy analysis videos (and tryharding videos) the most. Hope to see more videos of you again!

Gotta say, not much of a smash player, but more than the gameplay, really enjoy your storytelling, and especially appreciate your ATTITUDE! You are awesome!!

[@ConstructedChaos]

Loved this format and would love to see more like it! I think the extra time spent documenting and editing really takes it to the next level and I’d love to see you do this for other games too!

Bro, very nice video format. I really liked it and enjoy the journey you just drove me into. I can’t imagine the hard work to elaborate this type of content.

[@storm1659]

i love your trying characters into a tournement but nice editing if it wasnt you then your editor is a keeper cuz they really showed how much u practiced and it was really good

[@andrewww13]

This has to be the best video you have ever made, the editing is amazing and everything else is too, great job Poppt and Craw

[@JaydenWilson]

OMG Poppt! The production value on this video was absolutely insane!!! I so hope it goes well because this was such a blast to watch and hope to see more inspirational videos like this in the future 👑🔥👑🔥👑

[@staticskeleton4456]

These videos are amazing! Between the explanation of smash tech and terminology, the effort and time put into this, reviews of mentality before and after, the whole training and tournament experience is great to hear about. This video is fantastic, and hopefully we can get a glimpse of the same content for your mains! Great video as always poppt, but this especially was above and beyond

[@Toasteye]

Legit one of the most entertaining smash videos ever. Def inspired me to practice more. Hope to see more vids of this kind. Mabye you could learn a different fighting game like Brawlhalla or Tekken?

[@bigmight2358]

This video was insane!!!! Great job in the editing I love how long and intense the video was. Also a pokemon video would be cool if u were up to it maybe a nuzlocke? But anyway great vid

[@Yusuf-qo6pt]

Poppt, I’m loving how your commentary and editing game have grown! Very epic video

[@Pancho123]

Good video dude! Nice editing and estructure! Really looking forward to your future videos and proyects!

[@nicholass7748]

I don't know how this video will perform but please don't give up on this format! As someone who knows next to nothing about the KZbin algorithm, I imagine it can take a few videos of a certain type to get off the ground in a new direction, and it may take adding more content like this to begin retaining new viewers (that way they can watch a bunch of these videos in a row). That should be fact checked though. It would be cool if you branched out a bit from smash for this series, scary as that may be for watch time. Maybe CoD or Minecraft for the next video?

[@DerNiker]

Poppt: You have to win this psychological war or you are gonna lose the game. Me: Picks a bad match-up for Poppt Poppt: Oh no this will be impossible! I really love your tournament vids. I would love to see you master all Smash-Characters. The more you play them, the better you get at playing against them because you understand how they work and how they can be countered. People might say its lame but i would like to see you pick up a top-tier for the next tournament like Palutena or Pikachu, learn them from scratch and beat the living crap out of you competitors.

[@rudyjld1615]

Hey Poppt, this video was one of your best. You’ve provided a lot of good advice to overcome tough mental situations; especially when it comes to losing battles you really want to win. We appreciate you.

[@Zealous453]

I love the challenge aspect of the videos. It’s definitely like a little docu series where you explain your thoughts and process. It’s great! It seemed also as if you’re reaching to a new audience since you explain what a stock is and how bracket works. Overall amazing! Keep having fun

[@arilouiss7252]

Hey Poppt. I’m glad you are making more informative videos that show how you can improve with dedication and control. I’m a Falco main that plans to use what I saw in this video in the future.

This was a great video! Loved it. Felt more personal and hearing how you felt after and during matches was awesome!

[@randomash2192]

incredibly well-made video, love them. keep it up poppt

[@Alexander050101]

This is weirdly what I needed to see right now. The message of this video on a video game on a smaller KZbin channel I’ve been following for a few years taught me about perseverance and learning from mistakes. I just finished my undergrad engineering degree with not failing grades but low enough grades to make job opportunities near-obsolete. Instead of accepting mediocrity and accepting this, I’ve applied to a masters as a form of redemption in mine and my family’s eyes. I hope to come back in a year and say it all worked out and partially credit my success to a Poppt1 video

[@strikercat4397]

Poppt, I would say that this is one of your best videos in my opinion. It was super entertaining and the editing was amazing. It remindes me of other videos that are super good because of the voiceover. If we get more of this content but lose everyday uploads I would be totally fine

[@AthenaLaw_]

Wow! You can really tell a lot of work went into this video! Good job Craw and Poppt thanks for giving us this amazing content!
