Kowloon 9 Top 8 - Gackt (Ness) Vs. Hurt (Snake) Smash Ultimate - SSBU

[@tstone9151]

That hurt my soul... You'll get them next time Gackt

[@silverjeyjey4054]

Gackt always takes down snake players. This is an unique situation since it's Hurt

[@pillowy9726]

I know this isn’t your fault, but I hate when the top comment spoils the video 😭 There’s no way to not see it unfortunately. I love KZbin’s UI !!

[@brucesmith7481]

Ness is one of my mains, but Snake got hands! Great play around the Psi Magnet

[@Brandon-pr7fw]

great commentary!

[@Sparrtan15]

is there a video with just the Japanese commentators

[@Joker938]

I love the Kowloon commentator that just screams all the time.

[@silverjeyjey4054]

Hurt had to play that on point for the first game and with such a generous lead and still lost lol

[@ragames7320]

Damn hurt absolutely pooped on Gackt playing one of the snakes worst MUs. Absolute goat.

[@Reed411]

Does a game 5, last stock situation constitute getting pooped on? lol please answer so I can make laugh at of you just for fun.

[@ragames7320]

@@Reed411 ok but hurt showed dominance in every single game that he won. He won neutral several times and just outplayed Gackt in general. Gackt had the character advantage and that helped him win 2 games. So to a degree at least Hurt pooped on Gackt lol

[@giveback404]

I was hoping these two weren't on the same side of losers but we got a great set because of it As an aside, Snake/Ness is definitely an even matchup

[@ErtN-fj8tg]

Psi magnet makes it +1 ness

[@giveback404]

@@ErtN-fj8tg I've asked both Ness and Snake players on their opinion and both majorities have said it's even. Snake having to use his normals more than usual isn't a bad thing, his normals are amazing especially against Ness. Nikita also makes offstage for Ness pretty bad. Both of these cases were showcased well in this set imo

[@ryman3084]

D tilt is literally the only move snake has that's safe against ness, and cross up dash attack but you'd end up giving stage control, ness walls out snake so well that it's hard to get a comeback. Also ness fair and nair be@t out up tilt (which is why hurt only used it for killing and plat pressure) so he only has 1, at most 2 neutral tools which leads to very linear approaches. It's the same thing with g&w v snake, almost all snake players grind tf out of those matchups which is why it looks even, if ness and g&w players learned the matchup it'd look hard winning for em.

[@Reed411]

@@ErtN-fj8tg This response makes you sound new. And 5 years after the games release? oof... embarrassing.

[@TheFullPackage]

@@ryman3084 Ness being hard winning is absolutely a stretch, there's a reason why (afaik) all of the top Nesses and top Snakes think it's actually an even matchup with top level results to back this up.

[@shrimpthepimp448]

First

[@Reed411]

Why does Snake have such enormous dmg output while also have an incredibly good neutral and range set up with S tier frame data? REASONS! Stopped playing Smash about half a year back. I was thinking of picking it back up again... But no lol never mind, I'm good. Hope you nerds don't get too sweaty playing this masterpiece of character design. EDIT: Also, just reading the comments. SSBU really does have the smelliest, glue sniffing fans 😂 have fun being single boys. You deserve it.

Mf got packed by a Snake and came to yt to vent 😂😂 cope

[@silverjeyjey4054]

Prob cuz he can be juggled to hell and is slow air speed makes him predictable

[@ErtN-fj8tg]

Give ness a real neutral special.
