Smash Ultimate Sora | How To Play - Meta Of Smash

[@SoraWorkerDrone]

You a lifesaver my friend, I want to master playing Sora cause he is so fun and my favorite character.

[@OhKayEl]

Sora is Sora's favorite character... A bit narcissistic if you ask me.

[@superamigo987]

that's....nuts

[@colinhay1666]

IDJ Bair hits the entire cast (including Pichu) rising and/or out of shield. Haven't heard anyone else say that yet so figured I'd share it here.

[@princeofalltoasters8813]

Short hop Thundaga has its usages as its aerial variant drops closer to Sora

[@Phoenixfire653]

Something to note. Even while mashing or holding b for sonic blade, the game will prioritize going back to stage for the third hit.

[@blvckhexrt7306]

No I don't think it does. If that was the case some people wouldn't SD as much. Mine has never prioritized stage on thrid hit unless the opponent is near the edge.

Sora is such a wild card of a character.

[@Matanumi]

Ehh.... could go either way. Being floaty doesn't help

[@Mikko_D]

Ah, so the "wild card" luxord gave to sora was actually an invitation to smash bros. Lol

If anyone didn’t know you can use thundaga while in the air which will make the thunder right up in-front of you

[@___i3ambi126]

Bruh. I was having trouble getting the side b to actually lock on to my opponent. Guess I pretty much always let go of B by default. Good to know.

[@Flezard]

I was doing the opposite lmao

using thunder in the air has the bolts be closer to sora

[@SoaringKiyo]

Great video, can you break these up into KZbin Chapters so we can click on them more easily? Best Sora Guide BTW just want to make it better.

Thundaga can hit more closer to you if you use the aerial version, obvious but it should be mentioned anyways.

[@colinhay1666]

F tilt, Dash attack and Down smash all 2 frame as well. Idk if any other moves consistently 2 frame.

[@HylianGamr1]

Isn't dair an SD move?

[@zephyrias]

This looks like a good video guide. Ima need a basic moveset crash course once you started saying “down tilt to fair or nair, etc.” yup this is the part where english becomes a new language. Too much unfamiliar jargon

[@kid12j]

The game also literally tells you when sonic blade locks on in the character overviews

[@MetaTrixx]

You’d be surprised how many people never read that stuff

[@mosesfollowerofchrist5959]

Subbed because I'm tryna git gud with sora thanks for the guide

[@SlushiiiyPaintzzz]

Should side b be used in neutral? Or should you mainly use side b to recover

[@c.w35t87]

Recover or mix up, move is too slow for neutral purpose and it has a lot of landing lag.

[@MetaTrixx]

It’s a good move in neutral as a burst option if your opponent is just Empty hopping or dashing back and forth

[@ricardojovel5372]

Thanks for the video it helped me a lot

I’m struggling to fast fall his forwards air, when I try to do it to he hits his opponents in the upper portion so I just end up using the regular short hop forwards air. Any tips for fixing this?

[@ironhide3732]

I practiced it by fast falling nairs then I just kinda got the hang of it by doing the same motion with fair

[@noahlucas9151]

Brooo that skin in the intro 🤤 where can I find this?

[@silversavior4130]

Hoping for a guide or some tips on coming back to the ground or avoiding juggling situations!

[@HayateTsuki]

qeustion how dose one allow him self to like go down to the ground faster to keep more combos cause i feel like i can use soras attack for the air but it just lifts me more after the second swing can someone help me solv this as i dont understand how to get those combos in or so

[@Darkness3031]

Fast falling can help this problem out immensely. I'm slowly learning sora but trying to make him my main.

[@HayateTsuki]

@@Darkness3031 ok thank you I'm also trying to main him I love the KH series

[@Darkness3031]

@@HayateTsuki yeah that I understand

[@JordanTClarkeTheo]

i love sora but..feels like there's a lot of moves i need to "avoid" using

[@MetaTrixx]

Yeah he’s a whiff punisher. If you run up and swing first in a lot of cases you will get reversed. Stick to nair fair and retreating bair. Tilts are too unsafe to just throw out

[@dgamefather]

What kind of control scheme would be recommended for Sora?

[@raekog]

The one you're most comfortable with.

[@dgamefather]

@@raekog Rly helpful, not at all what I meant. 😡

[@jimjimminy4026]

@@dgamefather what kind of answer were you expecting? those questions are stupid as hell, the best control scheme is always gonna be the one you're most comfortable with, there's no secret magic scheme that's gonna make you win ever tournament

[@dgamefather]

@@jimjimminy4026 I was looking for ones to help learn his fundamentals easier so that I can play him with my control scheme later on

[@hwanniggles187]

There really isnt a definitely control scheme for Sora. Its not the case like Bayonetta where having a should button be jump helps with her double Witch Twist or in my case, have a shoulder button be attack for inputting my command inputs for Terry, Ryu, Ken and Kazuya as im used to that from PlayStation

[@Shantaq]

You gonna go as in depth with this as you did Pyra and Mythra?

[@MetaTrixx]

As much as I can. He’s not that deep of a character honestly though

[@darkpromeathean937]

​@@MetaTrixx Is too 😤 In his series...

[@A-Spoto]

Correction: Sora has below average air speed. He has above average air acceleration. He is slow in the air making him easy to chase down and hard for him to chase others down, but his fast air acceleration makes it easier for him to microspace areal attacks. Also, while it is true that his forward tilt combo has less knock than the single hit, it kills at exactly the same percent because of the extra damage it does. The single hit forward tilt is not a "better" kill option. It kills exactly as well.

[@SecondDraft]

I want to play sora, watching some vids to learn, much appreciated! I'm having this one issue and I'm not sure what it is I'll have moments where I'm practicing combing, learning the timing and all that good stuff when I run into a scenario where I try to combo unto the up special and sometimes I miss(which is to be expected and all) and I'm going off stage, so I'll use the side special to recover but it acts as if I had used it already and I just SD. Can anyone tell me what is going wrong?

[@stressedbyamountainofbooks1]

Perhaps you take to much time to use side b you have a frame window to act after up B after that window is done your free falling

[@SecondDraft]

@@stressedbyamountainofbooks1 Thank you! I had a friend who was like... a pro player at one point and he pointed it out to me, you're right though. :3

This is what we all assume until Leo picks him up!

[@Japanimaniac1116]

I kid u not I knew that was his playstyle as soon as I got to play him, I just felt it in my gut that he was NOT gonna be an offensive character to play as.
