MKLeo Reacts To The Official Smash Ultimate Character Tier List

[@rednuhT]

Please include Maister's name in the titles too. I love MKLeo (and Dabuz), but Maister deserves love and attention. Plus, he always has such a great positive and humorous spirit. Please consider, thanks! Love you all!

[@farewell418]

Even Luminosity disrespects Maister, my man needs more love

I'm pretty sure they don't put it cause he's Always there (thankfully)

I swear Maister is more of a host than Leo tbh.

[@neopixelosu]

I love how the response to not putting maister in the title doesn't cause maister to be put in the title, it just means that now dabuz doesn't get to be there either

Fun fact is that incin was the lowest ranked character with at least one player placing him top 5 and palu is the highest ranked character with no player placing her in top 5

Incin is in a perfect spot, I think every character above him is better and more consistent than him. SkyJay is just the GOAT.

"Zackray's pit at genesis"... "genesis"... "genesis"

[@CameramanI88]

43:50 I’m so happy they talked about Lucina. In tier list videos, players tend to not really go into specifics with her placement. They usually just say she’s solid but honest and then move on. I think she’s a really interesting case because it feels like she can fight against the best characters in the game, but she struggles with predictability and stock taking and as a result she gets placed rather low on the tier list

[@smashbrosgoat]

clone character

[@FlameEcho]

I think Pit's a bit weird, like Dabuz says he doesn't really have any messed up shit he can do to you, but he's got a crazy well rounded defensive toolkit that means he can answer almost every other character's bullshit. So he would be like the worst character to use as a counterpick, but if you're a player like Zackray you just get 55-45 to 45-55 matchups all day long and just focus on learning your opponent and outplaying them.

[@DGSnowolf]

29:37 WELL WELL WELL

[@denmuchel344]

Me opening bracket to see that Dabuz did indeed lose to zackrays pit

[@Saltyoven]

The issue with Ultimate tier lists in general is understanding how surprisingly balanced ultimate really is, the fact you actually NEED to know every matchup, and the fact even the mid tiers can in fact win majors.

[@andrebaxter4023]

Yup.

[@greatgourami3946]

EVERYONE IS HERE

[@andrewcavallo1877]

While I do agree that a lot of the roster is balanced, I find it hard to agree when people say the whole game is balanced. When you consider the struggles of D and E tier characters vs. the massive advantage of S tier characters (and those nearby), that’s a whole third of the roster that just isn’t balanced with the rest. The game may be an improvement in balance on some games in the past, but it’s still way too far away from ideal to be called an overall balanced game. This is to be expected given the roster size but I feel they’ve had plenty of time to improve on it with patches and just haven’t.

[@andrewcavallo1877]

@TreyMM-qz4wg I beg to differ. There is a point where a “top rep” is impossible to achieve when a character is a certain level worse than the characters that are played at the top level. Having one good high tier matchup is not enough to survive in a competitive scene with at least 30 different characters considered “high tier”. You’ll only win 1/30th of your games if each player plays to perfection.

[@Creepo_J]

​@@andrewcavallo1877 Things are so unbalanced in good and bad ways that it’s balanced Ultimate giving every character strong offense

Hey! I'm a new Lumosity fan so I don't know how all the bureaucracy works, but I wanted to say that EE and Maister are the some of my favorite people I'm laughing with in these videos.

[@cozydinosaur587]

As a Mewtwo main, I don't use teleport except for recovery and teleport canceling, I agree on him being a very high risk character, but I know he's got potential and I'm never giving up on my homie, Mewtwo main since day one, Mewtwo main when I die 😂

Nah Jr is versatile and good

[@drainstorM11]

That point about Incin sideb is so real. I will never understand why a character with such rigid recovery options never gets edgeguarded. I feel like I get reversals more often than I get edgeguarded. Being able to get gimps with my upb and sideb is pretty nutty

[@jarenmcmillan6082]

“Byleth lowkey sucks” 😂 no wonder Leo hasn’t been using him recently

[@Spyder-Marth]

48:10 I agree with this take. I wanted to Solo main Corrin but some MUs are far too wacky for her. Marth compliments her very well. I was struggling against Byleths as Corrin but the moment I picked Marth I started cleaning them up lol.

[@trombonegamer14]

I definitely think she is solo mainable, but like all solo mains barring like 3 characters, it's very difficult. But there are 2 solo mains in today's top 8, and that is crazy. More reps than any other character

[@flamingfury287]

I (cloud and kazuya main) personally would counterpick to Kirby the moment I see a pythra on screen. I lowkey think that matchup's good for Kirby.

[@mannya.h.967]

Aegis main and I lowkey agree. He handles mythra well in neutral, and has really great edge guards against them bc of their linear and weak recovery. If you’re recovering low and don’t space perfectly or up-b early, Drill is taking your stock at 10. I do think pyra absolutely stomps Kirby though, I play much more spacing and Pyra heavy and she will delete the little guy at 50. Still a winning MU for aegis imo, like +1 maybe +2 but it’s not as bad for Kirby as you’d expect it to be

[@Junr777]

"Good for kirby" lmao

[@2004bestgamer]

As someone fine tuning playing with Kazuya, it takes ALOT of practice to get down the command inputs it takes to do the electric combos. Shoot, just to do electric in general. Missing an electric can cost you the match. Missing a landing on platforms after an electric can cost you the match. These are just a few trade offs that can make or break him being broken. That’s the only reason I’d say he’s fine the way he is. High risk, high reward.

[@greatgourami3946]

Idk about high risk

[@capitanpastabase6342]

not really cuz at high level execution difficulty is not that relevant since all to players have good execution

[@woop7842]

@@greatgourami3946 at top level he gets blown up with his disadvantage, watch recent riddles sets

tbh he's a poorly designed character. ewgf is supposed to juggle the opponent not cause hitstun, also uses the wrong sound design too. kazuya does not have a lot of moves and has a horrible disadvantage too.

[@sinchill5424]

I’ve been maining Jr since Smash 4, happy people are starting to finally see that he isn’t as bad as people thought! Wonky? Hell yes, weird? 100%. Hits like a truck with low end lag on killing moves that bait you into a “oh I can wiff punish him” and then you die to another killing move (fsmash -> dtilt being my fav). Plus a pretty decent recovery with mix-ups.

To me, Inkling doesn't really have any bad matchups. I feel like the character just never had any broader representation outside out Cosmos.

[@SirNarax]

I am no pro smash player not even close but if I may offer my 2 cents about Kirby. Kirby has a lot potential but he is very weak to being zoned and camped (hard to approach). Kirby's placement makes sense when you consider what kind of characters and strategies are at the upper levels of the list. The safer and risk free strategies are stronger and Kirby doesn't have a risk free strategy.

[@jackvogel701]

Waaaaait Dabuz did lose to Zackray lmaooo

[@ShinOrashi]

If Ike had his 1.0 NAIR, with his current tool kit, he’d be PERFECT. . .

I fully believe lucina is very high up. But i also believe the gap between chrom and roy is smaller than the gap between marth and lucina. Lucina has almost only advantages over marth. While there is a argument that chrom has some tools better than roy and roy is just overrall better.

[@くまかい-q7k]

%90 of sephiroth players play defensively and thats not how he should be played at the top level, hes fast, has long range and shield pressure, he can be oppressive against many characters.

[@MiddoTD]

Sephiroth needs to space his attacks to be safe on shield so a little harder to be more offensive, But he definitely should be played more aggressively like Kens or Neds, not tweek
