[@lite1979]

ESAM makes a good point in saying that Marss doesn't play AGAINST a lot of Zero Suit Samus players, so his perspective is limited. No one knows how hard you punch better than the person who just got punched. I main Pikachu (big surprise on this channel, right?), and when Ultimate came out, I had a hard time playing against other Pikachus. Whether it was the less shield-heavy play compared to Brawl, or the nair loops with his mewtwo-esque Nair, or technical quick-attacks, I told myself "No more Pika-on-Pika violence. This is not working for me." I now win a lot more of the matches against other Pikachus, but it took a lot of getting Pwned by other Pikachus to get to that point.

At the end of the day, especially in tournament, a good neutral and having the fasted overall speed in the game matters A LOT. Being able to dictate what interactions you take gives you a slight, but inherent advantage in neutral, and ZSS does this as well as anyone else in the game, and probably better than everyone else.

If they’re in an animation it will bounce off them and they get a free hard punish.

I would say zss is definitely top 10 because she is one of the best well rounded characters in the game. She has good combos and kill power, can be explosive or lame, an amazing neutral and disadvantage state, can overextend and recover from far, but has a decently guardable recovery, and has a great jab and good combo starters, with a fast throw speed and slow grab speed. On the other hand tho, she is pretty light and dies early if she gets hit, can be out ranged, and has small hitboxes.

[@bigtoblerone8446]

So basically like, he takes into consideration everyone else's followups after turning neutral into advantage, but not his own character's.

[@Gabriel14366]

People like to acknowledge zss's strength but like to rush past the fact that all of her best moves have glaring weaknesses that balance them out. Flip kick probably her best move but its still incredibly bad on shield and if you miss it. Its an amazing defensive tool but has a lot of draw backs as an offensive tool. Her Ariels have similar problems. Her hitboxes, while they do have good range they are by no means good hit box's they are often very thin and do not cover the majority of her hurt boxes so she trades a lot. So many charters in this game especially the top tiers have Ariels that do everything, they have good hit boxes, they kill or set up for Kills, they are safe both on shield and when missed , they have descent range and they combo. If you look at zss's Ariel's they don't do this, zair is only safe at further ranges and only combos at closer ranges so you have to choose, do you want to use it to camp or combo because it can only do one of those effectively. Nair is also very good but incredibly slow it is frame 10 which is not bad. The move becomes slow when you factor in how long it takes to actually hit a character. The move basically doesn't hit any character in the game raising so you have to do it falling and because it is only active for a single frame or 2 if you fast fall as soon as possible out of a short hop then the move still won't hit most characters especially short and medium height characters. When everything is all said and done you jump, rise, and fast fall then time the frame 10 Ariel and your move isn't actually landing until 25+ frames after you hit jump on most regular height characters and even more time on short chapters. This is reactable and it makes jumping in and not just getting spot dodged or shielded very difficult against a good player as zss. So Zss is forced to basically have to get call outs and reads to get any damage that isn't a little poke because zair only does 6% fresh. If she wants to get any started and actually land a move she has to commit to her long start up animations during the other players animations meaning all her decision are predetermined and she has very few situations where she can react especially in neutral. I think she is really good (10th) I just think people see Marss win neutral once and get like 4 reads in a row and kill the player and think that's how zss plays, no that is how Marss plays marss is explosive and willing to take more risks then most players. The other ranks zss mains are from Japan and are much more campy rarely ever going for Nair flip kick or edgegaurd like Marss

[@Unknown-dm2ge]

People don't realize how damn hard of a character she is to use properly. Some people will claim Marss is being carried by her.

I think Marss' point is that ZSS has to work a little harder for things that most of the other top tiers don't. You have to read very well because she doesn't have high damage combos. Also you have to hit nair flip kick in order to win at high level. She's very high risk high reward, while most top tiers are good because they're safe to play and do a ton of damage. She's still top 10 of course.

If zss try’s to do a down B spike and misses, she gets punished hard. You can’t overextend with this character. Not to mention all the top tier characters that marss placed, zss either mostly loses or is even with. Zss is an amazing character, but also stressful to play with.

[@nathandawit2899]

I wanna see marss make a video called "Shut Up, ESAM" where he critiques your critique of his placement of ZSS

Best title ever( yes, I am not creative )

That’s what I thought lmao I even made a comment about it then I watched it for a minute and deleted the comment

[@c.w35t87]

I haven't played against god tier ZZS players but for me if I don't go aggressive and overwhelm her I just will get stuck at neutral forever. Since I use Mario I don't have much of a option anyways.

[@proballa27]

Somewhat unrelated but why is ZSS pretty much universally considered a top tier character, yet people are still sleeping on Greninja and sometimes have him outside the top 20? They are a very similar archetype with certain tradeoffs that some could argue are in greninjas favour. The most significant tools in ZSS's favour are flip kick and boost kick, which are obviously fantastic and a huge part of what makes ZSS so good. BUT! As a tradeoff Greninja get a much more potent combo game, more consistent kill power/confirms, on top of being a shorter character with significantly more weight (88 vs 80) and even more speed and mobility. He also has dash attack, which flows so well with his speed and honestly if ZSS had that dash attack she would probably go up at least two or three spots on the tier list . Sure you could still argue that flip jump alone makes ZSS better but like over 10 spots better? Idk...

[@thewinkersshow575]

Zss 100% has better mobility than greninja. Also her Zair is a huge factor at out ranging large hit boxes. Without zair she probably would be middle of high tier

damn you didn’t call him the nword?

[@KodakKid33]

“if you somehow punish downB and up air her then she just down airs to the floor and gets hit a single time and then has her downB again”. This is kinda fake imo, her dair is linear, slow and very punishable, when you say she “gets hit a single time”, she’s either getting hit by a good combo starter, a strong kill move, or you failed to punish. It’s an okay mix up option but definitely not some reliable “get to the floor for flip kick asap” button. Besides, even without flip kick her air mobility, fast air dodge and good aerials make her decent at landing without having to sacrifice herself using dair

[@natefrison9371]

I don’t know if I would call her dair slow, but yes it is punishable. He should have said fast fall, because she has good aerial mobility

[@MercMercury]

This music makes me really want to play DKC2 again haha

[@bambyce]

He needs a reason to explain why Leo has better results xD

[@NVS_Snake]

Cuz Leo has always been this good. And come on, Joker is number 2. And Leo was winning BEFORE the nerfs and like 2 tournaments after the nerfs. So Joker was number 1 before the nerfs and number 2 after the nerfs.

[@jawbreakerHxC]

you mean "go boxing ring"

[@fridolinrinke9099]

I'm sure Marss has a lot of respect for Leo and admires his skill. I can highly recommend his match analysis of G7 Grands. Very funny and informative. :)

[@DemonEyeHelix]

@@NVS_Snake Joker is #1 still. His very minor nerf didn't change his placement. Base joker (without arsene) is a top tier. Joker with arsene is in his own tier.

[@thewinkersshow575]

Taylor Helms wut. Base joker AT BEST would be the very bottom of high tier. The nerfs were also very damaging. The gun nerf was huge and now a ton of matchups are not invalidated off stage as much. The Arsene nerf also hurts. This is coming from someone who occasionally plays him as well as the opinion of other top players.

[@gabrielemmanuelli3375]

Honestly, in my opinion esam's tier list looks more precise and practical. he explains more in detail why he put a fighter in a specific tier. Mars's tier list wasn't bad but he doesn't go that much into detail like esam.Even though he is a top player in the world and his opinion is still completely valid.

[@xenoistaken]

At first i thought that they were both in the same room re-watching Marss video

I totally agree. Even if he is joking, I always get so annoyed when he says "ZsS sUcKs!!1!!1"

Boxing Ring

[@SH-rs3zw]

I bet Marss would shut up if you went boxing ring

[@Trattt]

He's doing this because he wants to let people think zss is worse then they think and so they can "learn" the matchup against him

[@shinygoomy2460]

If there are no other good ZSS then maybe you'rr not trapped by the character, maybe you're trapped by MARSS

[@phantomslash311]

Zero suit is definitely a top tier. He can’t just argue with “don’t get hit” since many characters struggle with her speed, advantage state, small hurt box, and excellent neutral. There are some characters that get nullified by that

[@brehella770]

I’m pretty sure that Marss knowingly understated his character’s abilities so she doesn’t get nerfed. He’s made a note before of the fact that a character could be busted and nobody would do anything about it if it were never mentioned, that’s why Palu got nerfed and other stuff, so he’s just going to use reverse psychology to make everyone thinks she sucks so they’ll actually buff her instead of nerf her.

[@dtmuffinman]

This is gonna cause drama because people hate Esam and love Marss, but Marss' logic is objectively terrible. There is no defending that.
