something alot of people forget is that pac's pellet in his side b can be used to block projectiles on stage and if the projectile travels on the ground (ex terry's power wave) it can keep tanking them until it despawns

[@sayzar9474]

Zelda side b at least has use un edge guarding. There’s no way it’s as bad as egg roll or hammer flip.

[@survivorofthecurse717]

You can usually just throw out an attack to straight up cancel it out. Plus, it leaves you quite open, so the rewards aren't good enough for the risks. Also, it's not just "it's bad", it's also "How many other characters would really want Din's Fire?" Due to how many other people have really good options, they wouldn't. That's why hero has a really good one: whiff punish tool, does strong damage, isn't too hard to access, and counts as a melee and not a projectile

[@dockingwater1713]

The whole "Hammer Flip is worse then Egg Roll" is completely baffling to me. Is Hammer Flip good? Not really, but it's sure as hell better than Egg Roll. Same with Din's Fire. There is no way in hell Egg Roll isn't the worst Side B in the game.

[@HD-nb7kw]

Probably the worst move in the game.

[@doriyah2849]

@@HD-nb7kw mac up air

[@SunshineRey]

@@doriyah2849 in a vacuum, it’s a decent combo move, and on mac it can combo into like half of his kit (even angled up f-smash at certain percents). Egg roll and Jigglypuff’s Rollout are easily the worst moves cause they do LITERALLY NOTHING to help anyone, even on the kits of these characters. You can SD so easily off stage and if you hit a wall, you go flying off to your almost certain death

[@343Films]

Personally I don't understand how Bowser's side-b isn't top 5 here. Very fast, out of shield command grab that can be used just as quickly mid-air. AND it kills most fighters around 100-130% from ANYWHERE on stage so long as there are platforms. On anything other than Final Destination, the move is absolutely broken.

[@guacodile2528]

Maybe it's cuz it's tiny and has like 40 frames of endlag

[@linkonedgell894]

Man really said that yoshi side b was better than zeldas.

[@MannyForReal]

Fun things about Mac side b. It has 3 frames of full body s on the ground and continued s from the waist below. This can be used to go through projectiles, go through attacks like a Marth fair (hard to time), and can be a combo breaker on the ground against specific combos. It's also a great combo ender mainly off of utilt, dtilt, and dthrow (frame trap). For recovery there's a good amount of mixups since you can mixup the timing of when the hitbox comes out. There's also a tech called wavemaker which gives it a shortened range that let's it combo better in some situations and can be used to microwave your recovery. Against some characters it can be good at edge guarding (krool, cf, Ganon, ect.) And it can help you get off the ledge against certain thing like if hydrant was placed at ledge you can drop down haymaker to knock it out and regrab ledge. If a character that had a crazy recovery or a better dthrow had this man that'd be so terrifying.

[@ABAgamer_]

What’s more is it can hit opponents on platforms when Mac’s below them because of the hitbox at the beginning.

[@RandomNirvanaSXE]

You can also hold onto ZSS side B which then instead flicks the opponent up into the air. Having an extra option is just another reason why it's so good.

[@desmondcoppin591]

As a dedede main, Gordo’s are super good. Extremely good for landing options, and it’s super good for keeping an opponent just generally off you if you’re in the air, so it makes up super well for dededes slow airspeed. It’s awful if you’re thinking of it as an offensive tool, but as a defensive tool, to keep your opponent from juggling, or killing you off the side, it’s great.

[@rooticusthugrate]

After you finish this series of videos, you should do one where you choose what would be the best combination of moves on each weight class

[@noyd4172]

I clicked into the video at 23:02 and was not prepared for that noise you made lmao

[@Manganimemer]

I agree with mostly everything here… except when you said that Mythra’s Neutral B is her other worst move besides her Side B. Lighting Buster is straight up jank as hell, and this is coming from a Pyra/Mythra main: has invincibility on startup, has a charging hitbox, is frame 9 uncharged, kills super early, is nearly unpunishable if spaced correctly, can be turned around for mixups, scoops from behind, and does anywhere from like 15-35 damage. NGL I thought this move was for sure gonna be nerfed.

[@darthdistortion1934]

It's insanely strong as a reversal tool and even as a landing option. The fr3 invul was designed to compensate her not being grab invul on dodges but then it just made the move cracked because they made it scoop both sides just to, once again, protect her from grabs and command grabs But the reason why people think it's her worst though is because obviously if you whiff if you're whiffing 4 attacks while being vulnerable from directly above (unless the 2nd and 4th hit anti air you lmao)

[@imESAM]

What’s worse than it

[@jmann531]

Its funny because sakurai in her presentation said it doesn't hit behind

[@Manganimemer]

@@imESAM I’d say probably her down air: 13 frame start-up, making it one of her slowest moves, doesn’t set up into anything and isn’t part of any combos like her other aerials, -7 on shield so not any more or less safe than her other aerials, not a spike like Pyra’s, and only does like 8-10ish damage. Like, I’d say it’s probably her 2nd worse move just because there’s very little reason to use it. Along with of course the slow start up (compared to her other moves).

[@Manganimemer]

@@jmann531 yeah queue up the “so that was a f*cking lie” meme 😂

[@valkyrie5579]

If Banjo side-b wasn’t limited to 5 per stock, it’d be a solid contender for best in the game imo. It’s *CRAZY* good at tech chases, sharking platforms, and catching unsafe landings. Plus it essentially makes recovery free because no one wants to go offstage to challenge when you have charges left. It’s also very funny to use it against up-bs that don’t snap to ledge (Chrom, Ike, Terry). The amount of sets I’ve clutched out because I get a few nice reads with it is crazy. If it was something I could use as much as I wanted, it’d be too good. Well done Nintendo for balancing it in an interesting way.

[@chasebranson9029]

I saw a video where Esam said that no one uses pika nair like he does, so I figured out another way to use nair that is easy. Double backwards up tilt into short hop up air into fast fall nair, it is super easy and at the end you can use a free move. Make sure they start at zero or low percents! Please like I want a lot of people to know this I’m not even a pikachu main I’m a DK, that is how easy the combo is.

I think robin's arc fire is a bit high. The move is really slow. It realistically doesn't hit till like frame 30-40. The hit box is actually really small and starts well above Robin's head meaning that there's a blind spot right in front of Robin. There is also the issue that just about every attack in the game goes right through it. The move also has the total frames of a slow smash attack taking 63 frames to complete meaning that it is very unsafe on whiff. The six use limit actually really sucks. It means that you can't spam, you can miss opportunities that you would other wise be able to capitalize on, can cause you to drop combos, and if you forget you are out you still suffer through the whole animation of the move.

[@spencer7983]

can't wait for the back b tier list

[@ashtoric]

Haven't watched the video yet but if Pit's (not Dark Pit's) isn't bottom 5 I'd be upset lmao what a terrible move edit: Bruh killing off the top doesn't matter if it's one of the most inconsistent and laggy moves in the entire game, it's so easy to see it coming with the terrible startup (offline), has sooooo much lag if whiffed or shielded (Dark Pit's does more shield damage so it's a little better there), the super armor is inconsistent and since the attack is frame 2 when a hurtbox is detected, the first frame doesn't have super armor so it either trades or just loses to even the weakest moves. I remember testing once and if you parry Pit sideB and buffer Lucas usmash, it's a true punish. The laggiest usmash in the game is a true punish on Pit sideB parried on shield. And snake fsmash is also ONE FRAME off of being a true punish on parry too, so Pit has to take the shield damage and hold shield against it to avoid getting hit by it if his sideB is parried. Compared to the lagless sideBs of Falcon, Pika, Pichu, and Peach, Pit's sideB is atrocious. While it kills off the top so it's more "consistent" (even though it can be DI'd easily), its risk to reward isn't anywhere close to Dark Pit's, who can set up for edgeguarding which the Pits are better at than juggling (from Pit sideB). So yeah I kinda disagree lol mostly because the frame data is too atrocious to ignore

Diddy Kong Racing music throughout!

[@samstrong6587]

Incineroar side B is top 5. Everyone knows it’s really good but I feel like it’s still underrated bc it’s on a not great character. That move does basically everything

[@MasutaMJ]

My boy Sora I can admit I've SD'd alot using Sonic Blade. Or it's unsafe on shield and gets punished. If it was the KH1 incarnation of SB but weaker with the same knock back I'd prefer that.

[@belikebisharp]

Little Mac's Side B is like, really good lmao Stupid confirm that kills early af at ledge from a frame 3 tilt Its hitbox is HUGE AF and gets a lot of priority, which makes it really good at snaping ledge (if you have the right timing the hitbox stays while you're invincible and it's SO BUSTED) It's also got some good niche uses, like it can cover a shit ton of options at ledge if spaced and timed well (litteraly everything except Roll but you're standing at Roll distance lmao), can also allow Mac to ledgetrump effectively (which is hard as Mac since he's a fast faller) The ONLY downside of this move is : you don't get it back if you get hit. That's it. If Mac had the fucking Terry treatment this move would be flawless ngl

[@peterlemaire7570]

Surprised DK's side B is only in nice tier. It would be incredible on a lot of characters just because of its super armor as a recovery tool. It just makes a lot of characters' disadvantage a lot better

[@wonderful_whiscash9534]

How tf do you use dk side b to recover

[@Tonjit41]

@@wonderful_whiscash9534 maybe because it grabs ledge mid animation... idk

[@scd2009]

Did toonlinks boomerang really get put in that tier wen it combos into moves for days

[@nathanturoff3496]

K rool's crown has similar kind of combos as Richter.

[@omlett6482]

Ah yes, Tier List TMonday

[@Boltizar49]

Would Buster Wolf count? It’s a double Hado command you can use the B button for.

[@mattsmith457]

No, but if it was on the list it'd be OK tier because you'd have to be at 100 to use it, it can't be used in the air, does basically no shield damage, has 1 year of end lag, and you pretty much need to cancel into it for it to combo

[@peregrinehawk8363]

Pika with alolan whip wouldn't be healthy for anyone's sanity.

[@andrewtaylor5883]

As a Ridley main. I never touch Side B (outside of recovery). I choose Ftilt over it 100% of the times. I think I'd take Zard's Heatwave in PM.

[@iheartcello0]

The Ice Climbers Sister Twister is busted!!

[@J0ulez5]

Also the 3rd Mii gunner side b is +25 on shield, I think the other Mii gunner moves are still better, but I think it's better than esam rated it

[@borntostrive1307]

Bro if you could use Ryu side b to cancel an aerial, Mario ladders would be even more busted

[@tootnoot3074]

Toon Link's boomerang actually goes a bit farther than young link

[@Rarest26]

Yeah no, roller caps out at nice. When a bury move is more useful IN THE AIR you know it has problems. WAAAAY too easy to beat, too predictable, too risky, no fucking way it goes on busted.
