Clear through-line and really informative. Good video man 👍

Fiction has been rank 1 for years while HBOX and Leffen take turns at no 2. Armada makes his living entirely off reaction videos and also holds WRs in BTTs. Mango hasn't been seen for years and rumor has it he's retired to the mountains of NC with PPMD preparing for the rumored return of the King.

This match up illustrates the idea that "puff dies early" isn't entirely true. Yes, she can die to stray hits much earlier, but there isn't the same amount of damage taken from 1 neutral loss, meaning it'll take more neutral interactions, meaning puff sorta dies later in a lot of cases. She doesn't get gimped early either, and she can run away so easily.

[@SendoPLUS]

I came looking for this comment

[@amaterachu1]

Aw snap as always on these Walt videos time to make a Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion XL comparison. Now I gotta cover a matchup. Vilgax vs Mojo Jojo This is an interesting match. Both characters have some notable range options. Vilgax however is just too bullshit for Mojo Jojo. First off Vilgax's down smash deals 21% uncharged, does heavy knockback, and the hitbox is so awkward and has more range than it looks like it should, it's like he was sized down but they forgot to size down this attack hitbox during the process. He can use this bullshit hitbox as an edge guard that completely denies ledge (ledge grabbing isn't as strong in this game because you only have two options. Getting up is slow and you can get hit easily, the other option is to press down just like in smash. guess what Vilgax is going to use and will definitely hit you with if you choose that option). Bascially Mojo Jojo does not want to get near Vilgax at all or he risks getting demolished by his might. Mojo Jojo will be zoning out the character with his neutral special, (which shoots two Samus projectiles, one higher and one lower. the strength Idk how to compare because I haven't played Smash in a while but maybe like a low-mid shot with little knockback scaling?) his down special, which drops a projectile below him, and use up special to get away/attack, which is stronger down special but he rockets upward and does almost heavy knockback (not as heavy as Vilgax's down smash). If he gets close he can use multiple aerial combos and has the best dash attack in the game at his disposal. If he wants to close in he'll have to use either dash attack because of how fast it is, or side special which has more range and is easier to follow up with. He can actually use his neutral special and then approach afterward with these attacks if he's close enough (and if Vilgax gets hit by them to begin with). Vilgax can do multiple pokes with his laser neutral special, and catch up to projectile focused characters like Mojo Jojo easily because of his massive Cloud Strife sword. His down special is a strong get off me move if he desires and grants him total invulnerability, which can neutralize projectiles like Mojo's coming his way. Hell, his down smash can even neutralize these projectiles easily. If Vilgax punishes you, it'll be brutal. You have to play against him very carefully. So yeah this was a simple overview but basically Vilgax is too strong and can deny Mojo Jojo's zoning making the matchup in Vilgax's favor. I'd say 65-35 maybe?

Aku vs Blossom?

[@amaterachu1]

@@kniives Let's start out by saying Blossom doesn't have an infinite. It's a popular misconception and anyone saying this hasn't played the game enough if at all, or has only played against the easy AI who let's such "infinites" happen. Ice breath is a great move but it doesn't lead to any infinites as the attack has knockback scaling, and has a fairly average startup and endlag not allowing any infinites to occur. Although Blossom can indeed chain ice breath, it won't go on forever. Blossom's problem is she isn't Aku. She has to move in to even land an attack because her range is a bit on the short side. Aku's laser straight up denies Blossom from getting any closer. Okay but say she does get close? Aku can just up special Blossom because that attack is straight bullshit. How bullshit? If Blossom freezes an Aku using up special the hitbox will still be active taking away any follow up Blossom may have planned. And this is just without Aku's techs. Diagonal laser tech denies Blossom even more and the goat tech gives him the best recovery in the game by a landslide. (His neutral special also demolishes shields) Aku's weakness however is what I said above. He really only has a few good attacks while the rest are just risky and not even worth it if you already have an easier, safer, and 10x more rewarding attack. Blossom has multiple good moves and a great combo game making her a little less predictable. Her down b is her best attack, as it kills a lot earlier than normal. It's basically Pikachu's down b range but it's Palutena's up smash so the projectile is more instant. Blossom is another contender for the best recovery, not for the distance but for being able to psyche out opponents with her free movement. But yeah overall another 65-35. I'm not good with numbers so I'll do the smash wiki equivalent. Aku's favor is "+2" against Blossom.

But didn’t he say “he’s so good” at 4:55. It’s not like he’s saying LLOD is bad. Hbox’s argument is that he can’t bring himself to be 100% motivated at an online tournament. Maybe because there’s no crowd. Maybe because it’s not on a stage. Who knows. But llod came to win and Hbox didn’t. Is Hbox Johning? Yeah. He’s making an excuse for his underperformance.

[@rishabhanand4973]

the idea of llod winning cuz hbox choked is absurd. The reason choking happens is that you don't have enough juice in you down the stretch, making you more prone to mistakes. Hbox is a guy known for fighting the war of attrition, so he must have an _insane_ level of endurance. ergo, he didn't choke. The case that can be made is that he isn't used to facing a peach like llod's. The power-shielding tactic alone is enough to throw anyone off. Llod must have been preparing the puff matchup for a long time while hbox faced something he likely didn't prepare for in set. And a tournament set is not a good place to learn a matchup. So with hbox knowing what he's in for, I don't imagine future sets will be 3-1 in llod's favor. But as a peach main, I am looking forward to ground being broken in the puff matchup.

@@turndownforwalt I know, man, I was just making a joke, Still though, I think a qualifier like that means it's not truly 60-40 in the first place, just that Peach does okay in the neutral until Puff lands an edgeguard or rest setup. Also laughing at the fact that Hbox has been saying it's 60-40 since long before the tech that allowed the upset to happen even existed. Hbox has clearly known about subfloat since 2009.
