[@TheTomdog23]

You can further enhance this by embracing the concept of short term memory. Your hippocampus replays the past 20 minutes of high intensity brain activity as a survival mechanism. You can play for an hour a day by doing intense and focused training for 20 minutes, doing something else or playing some other quick game like a game of risk of rain two or something, the get back to smash and do it again and think of one 20 minutes as a rep

[@slys5871]

With all these exercises, you don't just progress, but you get more patient and that's one of the most important thing to achieve in Smash

[@BrokenKeyboard14]

Just some quick clarification at 3:09. When he says “Tap back before you jump,” he means that you tap back before your character leaves the ground after pressing the jump button. Edit: With the 2.0.0 update you can now press two jump buttons at the same time to short hop! Edit 2: Backflip is a misleading term. All characters can perform what IzAw describes as a backflip. It just looks different for every character. Mario actually does a backflip while Link sort of just winces in the opposite direction. The important thing is that your character immediately starts to drift backwards after performing the input.

[@PassTheSnails]

This is exactly what I needed. I've recently learned OF a bunch of techniques for Smash, but nothing on how you would practice them, and I couldn't get good results on my own. I'll probably be coming back to this video quite a lot in future as I learn how to pull this stuff off.

[@jakobr4384]

Took the words out of my mouth! Completely deserves a like, I can already tell that I have some steps mastered but I still have some others that I still don't really know how to pull off. This is *exactly* the video I needed to see!

[@lodeyo]

Once I finally started feeling comfortable with basic movement / short hopping consistently I came up with this devious exercise: Go to the Training stage, and pay attention to where on the grid you are standing. now short hop exactly 1 "square" on the grid (10 mini squares), and then back to the starting position. the second time, do two squares, then proceed until you've reached the max horizontal short-hop distance of your character. I main Lucina, so her max is 5.

[@FriedBacon88]

it's almost unbelievable the amount of care that's gone into this series. Everything is great, but I REAALLY appreciate you letting the short hop exercises go their full duration. I think everybody can use that entire section on repeat as a dance partner to tighten their training. If I can suggest something, Izaw... Could do exactly that? record your 15min training session with no cuts and perhaps a simple timer countdown edited in to begin each exercise? A literal workout video with your most moderate character. You could be cute and do it on omega wii fit stage. Am I off base here? You think this will help?

Small tip for "Excercise 8": If you're having a hard time ONLY turning around without running in a direction. If you tap the walking stick diagonally up, it won't input as a dash. Great video, Helpes alot. Thank you master IzaW

[@smashgambits]

Great tip! I believe this works for down diagonal as well, but I"m not sure? EDIT: Nah, it also gives you the crouch for down diagonal.

This is incredible! I've started going through these one at a time. I inserted my own very challenging alternative to 3:15. Back flipping back and forth. It's possible to instantly turn around and backflip, but it requires something like a Street Fighter quarter circle motion upward upon landing. I was able to short hop fast fall backflip then immediately turn around and do it again in reverse. This video is encouraging me to practice fine tuning my movement so much!

[@DictatorD3]

[@corbynjurk2297]

I'm new to smash (sorta.. I played some brawl and mele casually with the boys), and just found this video. Gonna post my daily training progress here. Day 1 Session 1 - paracticed short hoping (no fast fall) for 30 minutes. My best was 62 in a row. Why isn't there separate jump buttons? Wtf. Time for a break, then do it again with fast fall. Day 1 Session 2 - did about 15 minutes of short hop no fast fall until I got to 50+ without accidentally full hopping. Did 79 in a row this time. Spent another 45 minutes trying to short hop fast fall. Adding the fast fall really hurt my consistency, and I started accidentally full hopping a lot more. I decided to count the fast falls I did successfully without full hoping. 39 was my best run. I was also failing the fast fall on the short hops probably somewhere between 25% and 33% of the time, but decided to just count the success for now. Day 2 Session 1 - I didn't have much time before work, so I just practiced short hopping without fast fall again. It took me about 20 minutes to get 50 in a row. I planned on another session or 2, but someone didn't show up to work, so I'm getting some overtime. Planning on multiple practice sessions tomorrow. Day 3 Session 1 - Started with 50 basic short hops again, but this time did it in 5 minutes! Lets go! I've noticed that adding the fast fall has increased the number of accidental full hops. After 30 more minutes I was only able to reach 32 short hops with fast falls in a row and most of the time I was getting around 7 - 14 in row before accidentally full hopping. I still think the game should let you set full hop to x and short hop to y or something. It's such an important mechanic, and we have an extra jump button anyway. Day 3 Session 2 - I did 50 short hop fast falls in a row in about 5 minutes! Easily the fastest improvement I've had so far. For the 25 minutes I struggled to even get 10 backflips in a row my best was only 8. Once again, when adding the backflip I noticed an increase in accidental full hops :/ Day 4 - I only got one session in today. Did about 45 minutes of backflips, but still couldn't reach 50 in a row. Got 32 as my best run.

[@yngmeka]

Dude I can't even express how much your videos have helped me learn, understand and grow as a smash player. I came back into smash near the early to mid-life of smash 4 with my only experience with the game being me playing brawl at my cousin's house for hours on end at the age of like 8 al the way to the age of like 11 at an extremely casual level. Because of that lack of experience and knowledge, I didn't anything about smash except the VERY bare minimum, like less than what the instruction guide at beginning of the game will teach you. After getting eviscerated online countless times and being told by a smash-tuber that I wasn't going to able to get better because the smash community was very hostile to new players trying to learn, I ended up dropping the game for a long time. I wasn't till a year or two before ultimate got announced that I randomly picked the game back up and unsurprisingly I was still hot ass. But then I found your channel a couple of months before ultimate's announcement and started watching your videos, and oh my lord, I can't tell you how much shit I learned for watching your guides that I never knew existed. I slowly found my self becoming better and better to the point where I could finally take a stock off a person online. Now I'm at a point where I can play at a pretty competitive level and defeat most casuals and lvl 9 cpus regularly and put up a fight against someone who's somewhat experienced at the game. I still got a long way to go but I just wanna thank you for helping get at this level with your magnificently made and edited videos. They helped a shit-ton and I hope it helps others as much as helped me.

[@mattiasrhawi3361]

Thank you so much, Izaw. I’ll definitely practice this often. I have one question though. You see, I main both Ken and Ryu and they have this auto turn mechanic so they can’t face the other direction of their opponent unless they are running in said direction or rawring. So some of these exercises just don’t work. Do I: A. Put the number of training CPUs to 2 and practice the exercises? (Since any more than one opponent will cancel out the auto turn-mechanic) or B. Not do those exercises at all? Since they wouldn’t be beneficial cause of the auto turn mechanic when playing since there’s no way I’d be able to casually jump towards my opponent with my back facing them. The Rawr followed by a back air would still be possible but not if I’m doing it from an initial dash cause it just doesn’t work with the auto turn-mechanic. Thanks in advance.

Been playing smash for years but never tried to get good other than to have fun with friends and family, these videos have been an immense help! Just learning the fundamentals even if you cant do everything in this video is great starting point

0:42 Izaw please, that's too much

[@orr4337]

The " your fingers will do it for you" part or the combo with link?

[@forevorseal]

@@orr4337 I thought it was pretty obvious, but I'm talking about the combo

This is the best video to ever be released on Smash. Your training videos are the only one worth watching on KZbin and that's not an exaggeration. Subscribed.

[@jaxsonfanta5420]

God why are you the greatest man this side of heaven.

[@iDeejayOh]

This is EXACTLY what I needed. Clear instructions and explanations that are straight to the point. Thank you Izaw

[@danielboulnois1986]

Lemme just share this with my discord real quick

[@xsonic29]

You are a god, Izaw. As someone who is transitioning from traditional fighters to smash, this is amazing at giving me a blueprint to start with.

[@MrPomegranX]

Art of Mario Ultimate please? I would love to see that!

[@skullkid4856]

So would I please Izaw Art of character Ultimate series

[@erfurtlatrine8537]

Wow, hands down the best guide series for Smash Ultimate on KZbin.

[@machjac]

Izaw! Appreciate such a helpful series. I am trying to get my short hops down to a tee when I learned that pressing two jump buttons at the same time also causes a short hop: I was wondering if that is a valid method of learning how to short hop, or should I just continue practicing on a single button?

[@IzAwSmash]

That’s fine

[@Nessboy12]

Now THIS kind of stuff is why I subscribed. You seriously make some of the best content out there for beginners, and what you do for the community is phenomenal. Keep up the good work man, you deserve more!

[@boiboi4581]

thx so much for helping me in smash 4 and ultimate :D

[@DictatorD3]

Oh yeah yeah.

[@graycactus1617]

I became an Ike main because of your Art of Ike video back in smash 4, as much as i loved that video and playing the character, I love these videos you posting lately so much. Learning so many really basic but fundamental skills from them. Keep it up!

[@PhayZr]

Subbing to you was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

[@aleksrbk]

I was training a while, but afterward, I did not know what to do anymore. Thank you for giving us the viewer more options for the training.

[@ddsdwedqwed362]

OMG YOU KEEP READING MY MIND! HOW DO YOU ALWAYS KNOW WHAT I NEED? I LOVE YOU Edit: no homo

[@HaydenTheEeeeeeeeevilEukaryote]

[@cbboy1265]

You are the best. Thorough, well spoken, direct, and very helpful. Will be doing this training until I'm as crisp as your videos.

[@yoshi6847]

Is it better to practice these techniques with good beginninar characters like Mario and Kirby? Or the characters in the videos? Or practice them with your main? ( I main Shulk). Other than that I really appreciate the content you put out Izaw! Keep it up :)

[@pedr0pabl014]

This is exactly the kind of video I've been looking for no one really explains this game as good as you

[@connor.chan.jazzman]

Ike's Nair is so in almost perfect sync with the music at 6:29

[@DifferentNerd]

Thank you for the time and effort!! Content creators have to agree! Awesome series I watched from beginner all the way through!

[@ryangillies8064]

I was trying to do nairs on link consistently and was wondering if the pros have some kind of key binding for it... now i know what I gotta do lol

[@goofydk9599]

By the way, little tip on dash canceling. Dash canceling is like Pivot-canceling, it’s where you basically run until you get the turn-around animation then flick the C-stick to the opposite direction that you’re facing. The move that your using depends on what set the C-stick to. (IzawSmash also posted a video on this where I’ll be putting a link on this comment later) Dash Canceling/Exercise 14: 11:12
