I genuinely like this mini-series of videos. It's so refreshing seeing you have an open mind to some characters that are usually dismissed as lame or boring. Also love how good the Underdogs sponsored segments are!

[@RoboSparkle]

Yay! As a Kirby main, it felt good to see you have fun with him. One thing I think you missed that is so silly - down tilt. It's super safe, and you get a 1/3 chance to trip with an almost guaranteed F-Smash follow-up that is reactable online. But that's forgetting his ultimate technique: DOWN. With one button press, you can invalidate way more moves than you really should be able to; for example, Warlock Punch, Captain Falcon's grab, Ryu's Focus (but not Ken's because *shrug*), loads of autopilot landing up-airs and so much more. I will reiterate that I think you can have fun with Zelda and that she doesn't have to be a special-spamming machine. One thing I tried that I really enjoyed was to ban the use of my B-Button unless at least one of us is off stage, and landing a dair into a fair strong hit is unbelievably satisfying!

[@Gamemaster-jz8cl]

You should try out Luigi, he is so much more than just fishing for grab to do the zero to death. His combos are insane and also pretty easy to do. He is really fun when you play him at a higher level and don't only spam grab in neutral.

[@alexpower1134]

Absolutely agree. There is soooo much sauce you can hit as Luigi. My personal favourite is the down throw at 60 and spike off the floor, Nair, jump and up b as they bounce back up. Sickest shit ever

@@alexpower1134 My personal favorite is at around 50% on mid-weights. Down throw, dair, a second dair spiking them again into the ground, followed by a double jump up b. A little tricky to hit, and a tight percent window to kill, but so damn satisfying

[@hubbleworks7872]

Same bro, shulk prob one of the least played characters and one of the most underrated characters in ssb.

[@RushWheeler]

I think you should try out mii swordfighter. They are basically at a middle ground between Mii Gunner who's gameplay is so stupid it ends up being hilarious, and Mii Brawler, who has a lot of specific tech and satisfying setups, which ends up making a surprisingly very fun character if you use the correct moveset.

[@RevelOnVR]

The Mii Gunner clip had me rolling at the end but I think Mii Gunner can be fun depending on the moveset you give it. For instance I have a full “movement build” that uses the psy magnet down-b and forward air to mix my options and add more creative flair.

[@shinobuoshinoisbestgirl5778]

You should try out Joker. He’s the only DLC character you’ve barely played, and he’s really fun.

[@JayoticMTG]

I love how 3:28 sounds like both a reassurance that Shulk is easy to learn but also a dig at the intelligence of Shulk main lol

[@alexaurorus9767]

Hi Hop! I’m really loving these videos, it’s a cool idea! I think you should give Joker a go. He gets a weird reputation because Leo uses him but I think he’s one of the most fun, stylish characters in the game- I feel better than I am whenever I play him. I think Alpharad once said of Joker/Arsene “he’s like Sheik with Ganon aerials”. (Plus that persona music do be groovy 👀)

[@stormrhys]

It feels like jokers the opposite of this kind of videos I love playing him but he’s pretty damn simple

[@Taraku43]

I never laughed more at Mii Gunner gameplay than your Sans Collage at the end, that shit was hilarious!!

[@firestorm3k882]

ACTUALLY Mii Gunner DOES have combos. They can do down throw or up throw to neutral air, landing forward air into grab or dash attack, the Grenade Launch neutral b into either dash grab; running tilt; running smash attack; or dash attack, the Missle side b can combo into dash attack; grab; or the Charge Shot neutral b, the PK Fire looking side b can combo into forward air; RAR back air; dash attack; running up smash; or the charge shot neutral b, & then bomb drop down b can combo into basically anything assuming you have the right set up.

@@novagears3604 I do enjoy Robin but most of my fun playing Smash comes from either Corrin or Pyra/Mythra (mostly Mythra) So I guess I have to look for characters that have swords

[@epicjrules24]

I want you to try Byleth tbh. They can be sooooo funny when they get shield breaks from their 15 shield breaking moves (Down B, Down Smash, etc). Not to mention the fact that they can kill at like 40 sometimes. There’s a reason why MKLeo uses them in tournaments. They’re so funny and good to play as. Additionally, the Up-B they have is ridiculous. It can combo from an Up Throw into: Side B, Back Air (True only if you fast-fall), Nair (Not true), Down Air, Up Air (if horrible DI), etc. I really think you should give them a go for a Part 3. I guarantee you’ll enjoy the experience, especially against heavies.

[@GamingG4276]

I used to ignore Peach for years because I don't like her as a character. But when I checked official tier lists of all the smash games once, I noticed she's been high tier quite often. I then tested her in World of Light, and I really liked her and won a lot with her. She has earned my respect.

[@CommentPositionInformer]

Imagine the Underdogs having a Smashdown, Hop ends up playing Peach, or Shulk and he pops off. I find just the image of it hilarious.

[@cadewatkin7086]

4:53 If you throw out an aerial after activating Jump art or press B once, you’ll be able to drift in the air again which makes it way more useful for recovering

Shulk was a character I initially didn't care for in Smash 4, but I ended up maining him in Ultimate after noticing the improvements they gave him and realizing how much fun it is to use the Monado Arts. I think giving Shulk a selection wheel for the arts helped a LOT. If not for that, I wouldn't enjoy playing as him nearly as much as I do now. Thanks for finally giving Shulk a chance! Also, 6:14 is the single greatest play of all time, lol

[@maxinea.sakaki4151]

[@Veckler]

Smash has been burning me out a little lately so I put it aside for a while, but this video reminded me why I love the game. And then you showed those Mii gunner clips... I'm extending my hiatus.

[@dockingwater1713]

Kirby has some of if not the best normals in the game. Great aerials, great Smash attacks, INCREDIBLE tilts. Highlights are probably Down Tilt with its stupid low profile potential, Forward Tilt with its deceptively strong kill power for its speed and how easily it sets up tech chases at lower percents, Forward Air for its decent range for a Kirby move, and Forward Smash simply because of how early it kills.

[@stormrhys]

They are really good except the range so he will almost never be in range to actually use the best parts of it

[@curtisschneider1369]

Im SO glad you hated mii gunner. As a ridley main, that matchup is just pain

[@SuperIsaiah]

Mii gunner is a horrible option if you want to feel like you're good at the game. But if you want to feel like life is a comedy and your opponent is the punchline, then he's perfect. Also you should try Dedede. He's got virtually nothing going for him except his crouch animation, but that's enough for me to main him.

[@rlotts6607]

Ngl played a little Shulk today and while I’m still not really feeling it, he was a lot more fun than I remember

[@illialidur8244]

This was an awesome follow up video! Feel bad for just being happy last episode that you played Corrin and Robin, but I'll give a couple actual suggestions. I tried something similar a year or two ago and I found that Ryu is actually really fun to play. The way his jab and aerials connect into his specials is really fun to use and makes him feel like you are linking substantial hits together. Special canceling is a cool mechanic, but I only like it on Ryu. I tried Ken and I do not enjoy playing him at all. I'd also put in a word for Mii Brawler except with the optimal special loadout. It plays very differently but is still really fun. If they are named Roy, play them.

[@GamerTimeNinja]

You really should try mii swordfighter with the tornado neutral B. Sure he is kinda cheesy but that tornado will set you up for any attack you could dream up, and all the other moves are a lot of fun to experiment with and find to more cheesy mii swordfighter moveset. :)

[@matrefeytontias]

As an avid watcher of your videos and everyone in the Underdogs (and the Underdogs obviously), it's really cool to see the perspective change on a lot of these. I look forward to you referencing how "actually this character's alright" next time they come up on random in an Underdogs video haha

[@10Bendog]

I would suggest Bayo, for the self indulgence, but I'm not sure you'll like her that much. She starts getting fun only after you learn how to do jump cancel up b and a few of her basic combos, which really isn't hard to do, but it takes a little time. Although, she definitely has a much lower skill floor than Peach or Sheik, so if you're interested, you can try her. It is very fun to combo someone to the side or top blastzone tho. I do love doing that a lot. :)

[@johnstarinieri7360]

I'd super recommend giving Bowser Jr/The Koopalings an honest try. Admittedly I'm biased because I used to main them back in Smash 4 (now I'm more of a Ridley/DK/K. Rool guy) but they have such an interesting intersection between heavy and zoner that I really do enjoy picking them up every once and a while. Also their jab is a kill move which is really fun

[@Rngenius_]

I'd love to see you play Lucas or Bowser Jr. If you need inspiration for Lucas, watch a "Blucas" match. The dude is insane. Bowser Jr has more than skins. He's got some wild kills to the level of Ding Dong in Smash 4. Also when you do literally any set up you feel like a genius.

[@xraenon1664]

I know this probably won’t happen, but I’d love to see Pyra/Mythra in one of these. (I will admit, there is a small amount of “play my main” copium here, but here me out.) I actually played a bit of Shulk in Smash 4, and while I was still an absolutely steaming pile of garbage of a player at that point, the ability to change up play styles is actually what drew into trying the Aegis. Also m, I can’t deny that having the ability to press down B and turn into what is essentially Ganandorf if he was actually considered a competitively viable character is amazing. (And before anybody tries to claim that this is just a Xenoblade fan ranting about their favorite character, let it be known that Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the only game in the series I’ve played, and only started playing after Pyra/Mythra were revealed.)

[@100organicfreshmemes5]

Kirby's Neutral-B is definitely one of the most fun specials in the game. In Ultimate they even added the ability to inhale enemy projectiles, similar to Dedede. Unlike Dedede it just spits out a moderately strong star projectile with low range, but it's still there. It's unfortunate Kirby is so bad, and it doesn't help his moveset is so outdated and fails to represent his games. He only uses copy abilities from the main games in his specials and a few normals like dash attack when really Kirby should be a swiss army knife with all his different copy abilities. He can still be easy to pick up of course, but giving him more varied moves would be a great way to introduce mechanics found on other characters. Side-B for example, instead of being a discount smash attack that's borderline useless nearly all the time, could be Beam while Hammer Flip gets moved to f-smash. It could be tapped to do the medium-range Beam Whip for zoning, and then if held could be charged to fire Wave Beam giving Kirby a way to deal with swordies and zoners. I could go into more examples like Up Smash being changed to Needle for a huge disjointed attack all around him or Down Tilt getting changed to his slide kick, but you get the idea.

[@AGTP527]

Peter I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see these 2 videos just going in and actually playing elite smash and just experiencing all the fun it actually can be is so great and ive been doing the same thing lol maybe looking for a sort of secondary (i could use more secondaries being a incineroar main lol) or just playing some for fun keep on keeping on man 🎉:)

@@fishsoup2675 The thing about cloud is that everyone CAN play him bc he is pretty easy (compared to the characters usually included in these videos) also I don’t think they will have Mewtwo in the video because I’m pretty sure he’s already said that Mewtwo is cool to play while I think this series explores characters that are pretty unknown and said to be bad.

[@BobzBlue]

Meta knight can do more things than just his ladder combo, such as falling back air into rising back air, ground canceled falling back air into down smash, down throw at low percent into neutral B, and side B draging yoshi off stage at 56% which would have killed at last stock but he fell out leaving meta knight in free fall making me sd lossing the game... I'm not crying, you are! As a warning up B is usually negative on hit unless he kills which isn't often enough.

[@RayZanardi]

interestingly, I also decided to give Peach and Daisy a go recently, and it's been fun learning them

[@inaviatable118]

As a shulk main I got 2 easy tricks for you 1: in buster, just down throw and f tilt. Congratulations, you just did like 40% 2: this is for the backslash fans out there. When the opponent is offstage, go smash, double jump high, and backslash to the ledge right when the opponent is getting up. Sounds like it would never work, but when you go smash they'll often get tunnel-visioned into not getting edgeguarded at 60%. Also don't try this more than once per match or twice per set, because they will definitely see it coming if you fish for it

[@pinkzki6473]

LUCAS!!!!!! Yes he’s a zoner, but the manz got up close boxing combos, 2 different spiking moves, DJCZ, ton of off stage potential, loops, unique up B that can be challenging to new players picking him up to recover, healing option, technically an armored move, and a reflector. Character is so unique with a higher ceiling for movement possibilities, you just gotta look past “Pk Fire” and get good with the Up B recovery. Plus sniping people with pk fire while off stage and killing at low percents is kinda hype. Or even stage spiking them with pk fire is also fun. If you’re sweating use pk thunder or pk ice to edge guard. But you also got dair and bair spikes or even just ran off and fair. Also don’t forget up air chains at low percent to get 60-90 percent combo strings, don’t know why but his up air chains are the most satisfying.

[@sgb8254]

One of the characters that I think gets overlooked since they got nerfed is Inkling. All the kills imo seem so rewarding when your opponent is covered in ink. Also their up throw to up air combo is just so free.

[@sgb8254]

Also, maybe try Sonic. I overlooked this character because he's considered one of the most annoying characters in the game, but after I decided to try him out, it was quite fun.

You should totally play Yoshi. His combos flow so well into each other, egg lay is a fantastic gimping move, egg throw is a fun projectile, he’s just got all the traits of a fun character.

I am telling you right now Bowser Jr. is goated

[@FuryJack07]

I don't know if you already play him, as I watch quite a lot of Smash KZbinrs, but the Great Koopa King himself, Bowser, is really, REALLY Fun. His entire gameplan is to mess with the opponent's mind to make them do a mistake, then you capitalize that mistake with either 44% dealt by flame breath, or straight up killing them with one of many powerful moves. I'll give you (or anyone interested) a few small tips, but if you don't want them, it doesn't matter. Need to 2frame someone? Down angled f-tilt does the job. Someone is hiding in their shield on a platform or you just don't know what to do? Just jump up and Grab them with side-B, that might kill at around 100% Trying to edgeguard (is this how it's written?)? Just F-air. Want to kill off a shield break punish? Down b shatters shields like paper, then fully charge f-smash, and if the opponed had more than 30% before, now they're dead. He even has some combos! Sure, they're small and kinda hard to learn at first, but they'll usually get the opponent to kill % Only thing you need to learn properly is recovering, as he doesn't exactly have the best up b in that regard, but trust me, it still goes somewhat far up, and pretty far to the sides. Though his up b is in my opinion the 2nd best up b up out of shield right after MR G&W. In general, Bowser is all about scaring you opponent to do something stupid bad so that you can do something stupid good in return. Also, if you wanna have fun just YEET an opponent with bad recovery off stage, force them to recover low and have fun bulling them with fire breath at ledge. Even when it runs out you can get something stupid out of it, and it's always hilarious. what? You still here? There's nothing else to see. no, seriously, I've got nothing else to say. if you don't leave now, you're not gonna like it. tsk, I knew it, don't say I didn't I warn you. NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP

[@cupcakemedia1143]

I think one that would be great for this is Rosalina. She's good, but requires more effort to use well than most of the cast. Some of the basic tech for her is learning to hit an aerial just before you hit the ground, which will cancel Rosa's action, but Luma will still throw it out. RAR shorthop Nair into Luma landing Bair is a great tool that's pretty easy to use. You can also cancel your dash attack into a grab, but Luma will still dash attack. Rosalina may not be worth it for the time investment she takes to learn, but even with basic tools she's a lot of fun.

[@TheLilCheezey]

Try doing Sora. Nair loops are annoying to fight, but they take a minute to get the hang of, and the aerial mobility is surprisingly satisfying for crossups.

BRO, landing Kazuya's down-smash at the ledge is what I live for. It's like "Stay down there where I put you, bish." Makes my weak, frail self feel like a real man.

Feels like the “that was pretty impressive” at 2:03 was directed at himself not the sponsor ngl😂😂

I saw your other video and picked up Lucas and had a blast! Hitting the sweet spot fair is so satisfying and the down air on stage goes crazy. Also funny snake

You might want to give back some love to olimar, constantly deciding what setup you want, trying to preserve pikmin and keep the ones you want to use in order makes it feel like you're playing smash bros at the same time as a brain tester, or if you're not in the mood to play sweaty his moves are pretty fun anyways

For Peach, "easy mode" is jump on shoulder button. Float cancels become infinitely more reliable.

If you looking for characters that make you feel really good at the game, meta knight is awesome. And as a funny little thing he has one of the only “parries” his forward smash is only active for one frame, so if it clashes with an opponents move- it will stun them for a second (grounded only) then you can do follow ups like down B etc… fun character and would love to see you try them out.

Hello Hopcat, Firstly, I must say that I absolutely love this new concept as it brings a fresh view of many unliked characters and I think that it's a brilliant idea ! The quality of those videos are also amazing and I can see the work and effort you put into these (but you already made awesome videos before of course, been a follower since a long time now😎) Thus I would love to see you play Sonic in this series, as he is a character a lot of people, myself included, love outside of Super Smash Bros but that is very hated in the game. Just to see if people can still love him like I love him 🥺(not my main but I like to play him sometimes)

Fun Fact: Daisy was the first character I played when Ultimate Released and I was naturally finding combos within 30 minutes. _The Princess(s) are _*_Competitive God's!_*_ I feel like people forget at times._

Shulk is the best character there just isn’t a single person that gets every thing about him.
