Good commentary. Great Snake and Sephiroth play.

[@Aidenrockz999]

good ass set despite the 3-0

I came to this video as a Ned Sephiroth fan but I'm leaving an ApolloKage Snake fan🤯🤯🤯

[@ejstephens7918]

Everyone in here talking about how much Sephiroth struggles, as if AK didn't also beat Ned's Pokémon Trainer.

[@andrebaxter4023]

Lots of Sephiroth hate in the comments while Ned made top 8 with him in this tournament. If Sephiroth sucks, then Ned wouldn't make it to top 8-9 consistently with him at regionals.

[@MuNiqab]

Sephiroth struggle in the current matter. He has no oos. His Frame data cant Deal with pressure and he is Not consistent evan if you Space correctly because he dont have active hitboxes. Ned is a Great Player but sephiroth is really hard to play.

[@andrebaxter4023]

@@MuNiqab , your statement doesn't refute my point about Ned's placements with Sephiroth. Also, he has footstool dair OOS. Ned has utilized this tool many times.

That game 2 is going to haunt him for a while lol

Sephiroth vs snake is definitely one of the matchups in here I struggle more

[@emiliomoralesluna4116]

Jesus christ, Apollokage has a good ass Snake. But i believe Sephirot has a hard time against the character.

[@Huhbd373]

Hard agree should have gone trainer

[@shaderu3402]

@@Huhbd373 I’m late but agreed, Ivy alone bodies Snake and Seph can struggle to win neutral in this matchup

[@solid_6448]

All that Nikita missile talk from the first game . It feels like the male announcer has never played Metal Gear Solid and it shows :(

[@kiukyu4671]

Seph really needs less lag on his move. Sad that no more patch will come to save him

[@007alztruli]

Totally agree. And also make him much heavier when the wing appears - that would be a good buff. He probably has the worst of all the characters with extra states except Little Mac: The wing is great but most times when he gets the wing, he is a hit or 2 away from losing the stock. Terry's Go is infinite and the character isn't light so he can do tons of damage before he loses the stock. Arsene is broken even with the nerf. Cloud's Limit is extremely useful to an already great character. Kazuya's lasts for a long time and can withstand multiple hits and goes through moves, and also kills early.

[@Raglandguy]

In my opinion it would be more beneficial to his character archetype if his attacks came out faster than if he had less end lag. What that would do is lessen the window of precision required for him to whiff punish. I'd exchange the slightly faster attacks for less damage and knockback.

[@joeyC34ee]

Hard agree that Sephiroth recovery frames on aerials to be shortened. It wouldn’t break him, but will make him safer. Blind spots, high startup, and high recovery frames makes swinging too risky in this Super mash bros meta.

[@MsFasty]

Ned’s Sephy is insane

[@Simbaninogaming]

2:06 nice “bair” 😂😂😂😂

[@francesco3588]

Sephiroth really seems to not being worth it

[@sonicloud7774]

I don't understand why Nintendo thought it was a good idea to make Sephiroth wiff his aerials against low profiling. His moves are already laggy enough.

[@Yishi_m]

I feel like seph is a hard counter pick to some characters and that's all he should be used for. I don't think anyone has that level of experience yet and his meta hasn't evolved enough. Although I do think this match up could be in his favor a tiny bit

[@Yishi_m]

@Master Shifu I can see that. I play a decent snake with seph kinda often and what I've personally noticed is that side b works really well, you can cover his landing/recovery options really well, and his range allows him to poke snake to the ledge if he's choosing to not approach. But like most match ups, it's still really volatile.

[@Tiajuan]

Sephiroth Sucks

[@andreistoriei2050]

yep

[@Tactix_se]

Really unfortunate

[@muteking9241]

Lmao he landed zero side Bs ..And never used his neutral b

[@andreistoriei2050]

Sephiroth's low mid tier... fight me.
