Super Smash Bros Ultimate Workshop | How to Edge Guard - Edge Guarding Explained

[@yazn528]

Get this guy a good mic setup and hes going to pop off

[@cartersanchez7533]

He popped off

[@KyleAlstonmusic]

Good voice. Tip: loosen up a bit. You sounded like a robot at times. Don’t mind your commentary one bit.

[@reprr]

at the start he really did sound like a robot

[@Metallian2112]

You need some acoustic insulation. Don't need to go for something super expensive. A lot of people use DIY hacks.

[@deleteexistence6175]

Appreciate the tips since the only Smash game I played previously was Melee. Didn't get too deep into it back then. Cheers!

[@temp5536]

Delete Existence how are you now?

[@metroidfan09]

Edge guarding is my weakness, I play decent enough on the stage but when it comes to off stage play I either hesitate or screw it up, so hopefully this vid helps 🙏🏻

[@DazonVA]

The new guy's voice is fine and all but the recording was done in too echoy a room, other than that I feel he did pretty well

[@illumsmind33]

Thank you Vest, very cool

[@matgonzalez6272]

This was really helpful and clear. I really liked that you broke down the multiple ways to do so and that you went over how an opponent will likely respond. A few of my friends are that extra level better than I am at SSBU, and this is definitely a part of the training I'm doing to reach their level. Thanks!! :) {also, your voice is awesome. Reminds me of Byf and VaatiVidya. Looking forward to more of your SBW vids!}

[@mattcurrin493]

I love the smooth jolly voice of Arekkz more than most things, but I’m always happy when new members are added

[@PedroPerez-wf2yn]

I really liked a new voice it just brings a new kind of view to this channel and I hope you can keep on doing this behind the scene guy

[@michaelthompson785]

Truth be told, I thought where is Arekkz? 😮 after listening to you, you sound like a KZbin butler with mad skills, nice to see/hear another member of the channel, look forward to the rest of the guide's

[@Jacob-jq8ox]

You have such great commentary I could never hope to sound like you. I really hope that you keep at it and I’m also hoping I win that switch.

[@Chileno4Live]

Very nice guide for beginners that want to learn how to edge guard and ledge trap. You've covered every important part of it. Commentary was amazing, btw.

[@soulofalbedo]

Nice vid, dig your vibe. But I do think 2 framing and ledge trumping were also important things that should have been covered here. Especially 2 framing.

[@pichuenjoyer1233]

Id say ledge trumping has fallen out of meta and is more of a niche tech, its 1 of those things u dont need 2 do but DEFINITELY need 2 know how 2 prevent (for those who dont know, buffering a ledge option such as roll or getup attack will negate the ledge trump) Still its good 2 see somebody who knows their stuff and im not nitpicking, just trying 2 strike up a conversation about the relvence of ledge trumping so pls dont take this the wrong way

[@dylanwells749]

Nice job behind the scenes guy

[@fish_fetish1304]

I harder way of edge guarding but very satisfying is using character parries when someone uses their up special to knock them almost completely

[@Meteaura22]

Not Arekkz but I'm not complaining. Something about your voice Vest just exudes manliness.

[@FaiqAnuar]

As I was asked to do, I am telling you that I find this helpful. Please continue to have more workshop vids for SSBU. Hehe

[@ilikewafflesalot9026]

It was easy to listen to and understand. Now edgeguarding sound easier now, thank you

[@TheHoppang]

This workshop style video was cool. you did a good job of explaining it to a noob like me

[@Gravy_Jones]

Y'know, I really like you, Vest.

[@QDurlstonP]

Vestmore? Vestmoor? Vestmour? Enjoyed the episode, voice worked perfecly. Look forward to seeing more on SSBU, as well as more about the people behind the videos here on Arekkz channel :)

[@Yazzuri456]

Also his new guys voice is soooooooo good to just listen to ahhhhhh do more plz

[@quantity1320]

Your voice is godly btw... just saying

[@kyogregamer389]

@Brazul Blint nah, that never happens, if it does let me now :)

[@invertedsense2220]

Brazul Blint I am English, some American accents are nice not all

[@Yazzuri456]

Fox be asserting his dominance in the thumbnail

[@user-ec8xr7ge5w]

Great job covering edge guarding. Keep up the good work!

[@jaspersweeney9761]

Extremely helpful and easy to understand

[@xelthos2051]

Echo noise is annoying but voice is soothing and you know what you're talking about. Keep it up, love to see more videos from you.

[@rickyteel3462]

Just because everyone is talking about how hollow your vocal recording is: just put some Owens Corning 703 on the wall and slap a compressor on there and you'll have professional-sounding audio in no time. That said, thanks for the informative video. Keep 'em coming, man!

[@untro7287]

Yeah get a cardioid dynamic mic and a vocal booth shield for the VO and you'll be set 👌

[@Rafzalo]

Can you guys link a list of characters that are able to down spike? It would be really helpful

[@ballisticarrow27]

Rafzalo DK

[@hfcred6754]

Inkling has a spike but it’s very delayed and punishing if you miss

[@EPICSAWIKI]

Rafzalo Captain Falcons spike is the only spike that matters

[@hayden6700]

R.O.B. has a very good spike

[@Jamie-lx7dj]

Pit,picachu,pichi,dark pit,Dk,Dk,Dk,Dk,Dk,Dk,Marth,Lucina,Roy,chrome,mario(f-air). And some others

[@Bunnybakery]

Wow Vest. Great moves, keep it up. Proud of you!

[@ericsanchez6370]

Yes, keep bringing more content like this

[@joshua0209]

Great video commentary. I would love to see the control inputs like in the monster hunter videos.

[@davechavarria9988]

Very helpful video, thanks Arekkz Gaming.... please more of these

[@Xgil2Play]

A fantastic Monster Hunter tutor and now a great Smash guide! I'm game!! Teach me everything, daddy.

[@ChronoShadow69]

I approve of your handle! Vests are awesome.

[@edwinelmejor08]

I'm always scared that if I miss I'll fall down instead and die.

[@Venom3254]

Thanks, I'll keep these in mind

[@michaelthompson785]

Link's detonatable bombs are great for legde guarding, I do that alot myself

[@Eddalpelo]

Just the info i needed! Thanks a lot.

[@2germ2]

great vid! some character guides would be great

[@serket6807]

I really liked the new video and voice :) Shouldn't there be 5 options to get up on ledge though with the last option being dropping down and jumping up to do an air attack on edge guarder?

[@TheSquidProQuo]

In high level play there are many more options when it comes to returning to stage via offensive means. Some characters do and don't have the ability to perform such techniques due to limited range to unsafe endlag. I assume they just decided to put the 4 basic options so that we don't have a whole college course on recovery haha.

[@TuxedoStar269]

Helpful and pretty good commentary.

[@Ghostdoge]

This game looks fun, I might start playing it, thanks guys!

[@chanceperagine2108]

That accent is top tier, 10/10

[@tristanpirate]

Snake I think has the best ledge guard. When a opponent is recovering, the guided missiles will go in any direction. They are noob tubes tho.

[@animayz]

my guy sounds like he's giving a mission debriefing to 007

[@IrishGnat117]

Super helpful!! Thanks a ton!

[@HazeVcasual]

I really like your voice, but i dont like the echo from your audio maybe next time it would be great if you use acoustic foam if you are able to get some. Nonetheless great job really enjoyed it!

[@smashgambits]

Stage spikes are harder to set up? I'd say they're easier. It's just that if your opponent techs, he's home free. Stage spiking is the "easy" option because you don't have to go very far off edge.

[@tashi321]

you forgot other ledge options such as let go double jump or let go air Dodge. and you didn't cover ledge trumping which can force your opponent off the ledge when they grab it

[@Zeaton666]

I like Vest a lot. I want to see Vest play a pro!

[@Maceyoshiman]

I love this guy's voice.

[@prince_warhero]

Great video.. will also be great if you can do a video based on the other perspective.. that is how to counter edge guarding

[@flinch2440]

look up how to get to ledge

[@markreimann3917]

Great guide!

[@Chris-xd6ok]

Any Edge-Guarding Tips for Little Mac? He's my Main.

[@lucasc5651]

Really liked the new guy. Audio quality I feel was a touch lacking.

[@RecursiveTriforce]

4:12-6:20 is called Ledge Trapping...

[@increase9896]

TheMasterMind nerd

[@Dmike]

Amazing vid. Keep em coming plz

[@janisgathot2873]

Wasn't stage spiking not techable if your knockback (and percentage) is too high?

[@NeverenCH]

I like your voice, but your room sounds echoey/empty, i can hear it on my headphones.

[@miritod]

Amazing Vid! Keep it up, Guys!

[@sleepyboi6245]

How do I make sure, that I stand on the edge, without falling off, when I want to down taunt as Luigi?

[@TeamfightTactical]

You have to go slowly, push the stick lightly. The spike area for luigi is incredibly small and is about half a step behind the ledge.

[@pdelolmo]

Good addition, you are just in desperate need of a quality microphone

[@biltemamiesruless]

Super informative!

[@hiredmuscle404]

great video...now show me how to get ON the ledge when Marth is guarding it

[@zacharycho946]

Great vid, however I would like a video on how to counter edge guarding plays

[@bbarr2]

Can someone tell me the difference between a Spike, a Dunk, and a Meteor Smash? I'm not new to Smash Bros but since Ultimate came out I'm looking to play more competitively.

[@forgedh2486]

In Ultimate, I they're all pretty much synonymous. However, in some previous games, the meteor smash was special. I'm most familiar with Melee where you could jump or up+b out of the meteor as soon as hitstun ended (known as meteor cancelling), but for spikes you had to wait until the actual knock back of the move ended before taking any action. This meant that in Melee you should theoretically never die to a meteor move because you can basically always recover our of it (at a high level of course). The distinction between a meteor and a spike is due to slight differences in knock back angles. To my knowledge, meteor cancelling is no longer a thing in the modern smash games, so the terms have kinda lost their distinction. And a dunk is just a different term for the same thing.

[@sampletextjpg1709]

A spike is pretty much a downward attack a meteor is a powerful attack that sends you downward and if you hit someone it sends them downward but it's a bad idea to use it off stage cuz you can't go out of a meteor attack and I have no clue what a dunk is

[@itsoracle]

ninbrendoswitch same thing tbh

[@TaggedByTim]

They're all the same now. Back in melee the difference between a spike and a meteor was that you had a chance to recover from a spike but not a meteor.

[@littleloon6176]

In ultimate they're all the same

[@jobama9909]

ik this is not important, but I need to know is it edgeguard or ledgeguard ledgeguard sounds cooler

[@Jamie-lx7dj]

Pits offstage game is so gooooood

[@sugarhighmegaming5008]

I like this feller.

[@brickhouse2265]

Video starts at 1:10

[@ShiNijuuAKL]

and this is bad, I got completely turned off by this and stopped watching the video );

[@Itsdaraj]

great how to video! gives me some great ideas for my makeup channel!

[@ayohollaatyaboy]

New guy is a solid fit

[@supremehunter11]

ITS MA BOI. IN THE BIG LEAGUES. AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[@kryptie7259]

Can we get a video about what to do when you get edge guarded

[@morrischau]

U need acoustic treatment btw the video is good

[@Joboone]

You have an echo with your recording setup! Sounds good though.

[@johnhelmes8261]

Once they get to the ledge. It's no longer ledge guarding. It's ledge traping.

[@vmasta3]

Get this man a better mic thats my only complaint

[@frezzysantos4319]

Mark Brown from game Maker's toolkit, is that you?

[@Panster7]

Ah,so this is for those who can actually knock an opponent off the stage...not me then. Anyway good voice and tips, Thanks!

[@sothedain5801]

I'm down with the new voice.

[@hacqsan]

And What are the buttons you have to push to do this? I don't get it

[@almightygod87]

Well Edge Guarding is highly dependent on the character you use, but you'd typically jump and press your A or B button

[@Badger6253]

Do you think there will be a western version of the MHXX switch bundle?

[@naominekomimi]

I like his commentary, though the echoing is a little iffy. Maybe he needs some foam padding on hard surfaces around him, or a better mic?

[@moeverine5024]

You mean meteor smash right ? (Spikes)

[@holywater1557]

He sounds like thor it's so cool

[@monthofcold5481]

Good voice. But I honestly thought you were a tired Arekks

[@l.t.c8.1.46]

I Like this dudes voice

[@kacperolszewski9033]

5:07 5:10 5:13 what do I need to press to perform those?

[@chrisclaymore2407]

Best voice

[@Soapy_Papoose]

Good voice, bad mic/audio. Sounds like echoes or just hollow.

[@juliocorrea4744]

Nice tips

[@svenklaua2763]

Damn that is some nice voice! But other than that the video was really helpful and informative

[@ClassicThermite]

Does anyone know what music is playing in the backround? Thanks!

[@JoJo-wb1eb]

How do you change direction mid air?

[@ohrience]

How do you throw away an item after pick up? I picked up a schythe and had no idea how to get rid of it. ... I'm new so don't be too harsh pls.

[@ArekkzGaming]

What controller are you using? If you're on GameCube it's the Z button, it's essentially whatever your grab button is :)

[@ohrience]

@@ArekkzGaming I use the Pro controller but I've changed the controls to suit me. Thanks for the help 🙏

[@MrRushFilms]

The reverb from your room makes the video so much enjoyable for some reason.
