The Low GSP Experience In Smash Ultimate

[@PANICWORKS]

Zero's active commentary on neutral, habits, and conditioning and his practical application of his own advice puts him at a cut above other popular Smash content creators. I myself quit playing Ultimate for at least a year and still find myself intrigued and informed by his commentary. Keep it up, man.

[@Succubus_L0li]

His commentary is the reason I bought smash as the first game I bought on switch

[@daxmasterix]

He would make a really good commentator

[@kaz_maniandevil]

I second this. I quit a while too but keep coming back for more ZeRo

[@pokio55]

Good comment

[@NotTheWheel]

Thought I'd do everyone a favor and catalog all the tips, they seem pretty useful to learn that might help lower rated players catch their mistakes, especially for aspiring Diddy Kong Mains, I organized them all by Victories: W1-W2: Don't throw moves out randomly and without purpose. W3: Don't give up! W4: Don't slack on defense! W5: Don't panic mash! Keep yer cool! W6: Remember your spacing for recovery options, when to use them at the right time. W7: Play careful when close to kill percentage. Also W7: Practice with items occasionally, so you are able to use opponent skills like bananas to your advantage. W8: (Specifically advice for Diddy Kong Mains, 10:49-11:12) W9: Don't play Smash with default wifi, play with a hardline for better internet connection so you don't lag. (Also Nintendo fix your net code!) W10-W11: There is good mashing (i.e. W10 for recovery, Mash options that have a High chance of you hitting the opponent like a fast move or move with a lot of range) and bad mashing (i.e. W4 or W11 bad mashing, panic mashing) W12: *for diddy kong mains, Forward Smash is a guaranteed kill, less of a chance for opponent popping out. ;) W13: Always remember to use good options for combos. Also, more Diddy Kong 15:01-15:16 W14-W15: Bait your opponent to make them mess up, Plan Ahead also, (i.e. Diddy Kong for setting up options 15:47-16:06 know your options, know your opponents options... As best you can ahem* There are like a zillion characters in this game, if you know you know, ya know? Like this random bit of knowledge in how Sonic works 16:07-16:34, facts like that you take note of from casually playing the game pay off in the long run, it can save your life! - I'd recommend not sweating about memorizing every single character, just maybe the ones you run into most or ones you got most trouble dealing with, if that's "Literally Everybody" just play more you'll pick it up eventually ) W16: Don't get overwhelmed! (Yes, it's different than giving up - the person was playing alright at the start made a couple mistakes not heeding our previous tips about options and spacing, brain just got fried by too much force) W17: Don't get stuck on using one move over again, just because it's big damage doesn't mean it's best option and is exploitable by your opponent cuz it makes you predictable. :) W18-W19: Wait for opponent to come to you, Wait and see what your opponent will do, then punish. Also W19: Don't get greedy! Also W19: It's a bad idea to go back into the level and do nothing. Always be moving and trying to do something to capitalize on opponents vulnerabilities. W20: More Diddy Kong tips for a particular matchup and again don't spam moves. W21: Learn to play carefully! Pick the area of the stage where you can neutralize the most threat from a character that you have the most trouble with to contain them in a certain gameplan. This can be keeping them on the edge and away from mid, like this match suggests. (Some characters like the mid, others like the edge it really depends) W22: Diddy Mains take notes on how he thinks... That's all for now GGs You're now 2mil GSP

“The moment you give up, it’s over.” Nice statement about low level smasher mindset that even branches to upper levels. I’ve certainly lost to myself before the person and I’ve seen it so many times with certain friends.

[@AstridCeleste96]

It's more likely to happen for casual players. These players play for fun, not the win and self betterment, and they give up much easier if they're clearly outclassed. I think the challenge of overcoming is pretty fun oftentimes, but I can understand them thinking they're outclassed and not going to put enough time and effort into bettering themselves to the level they'd need to to overcome someone like ZeRo lol

[@Succubus_L0li]

Sometimes you are gonna need to find someone that can match your spirit of wanting to improve at the game because as a low level player myself my opponents most of the time are just throwing moves they think will hit

[@Aflay1]

Anyone interested in the psychoanalytical aspect of gaming, I highly suggest Psych of Play and Core-A Gaming. These channels go in depth on topics related to why we give up or make bad decisions while gaming. Core-A is a more practical fighting game related channel, while Psych of Play goes very deep into more personal life-related aspects of gaming. Both are very entertaining and insightful. I highly recommend them. I improved a lot after watching these channels.

[@DowntownLAKid]

I don’t agree with zero here. He’s expecting, maybe a 11 year old kid to try learning this match up from one of the former greatest players of all time. There’s nothing to learn when you’re just starting out and getting completely dominated by a professional. Mostly because you don’t even know where you went wrong. So what is there to learn? Plus that 11 year old probably wanted to play for fun with people around their skill level. Not ZeRo.

[@a_bear]

Tbf I don't think we should look down on them because of that. Or even come to a conclusion that it is a "mindset". They might be just playing for fun and it is understanrable that they don't want to continue a match that's not fun. I mean come on now. Little timmy vs a pro smasher smurf lol. I'm in elite smash but I also sometimes (though rarely) "give up" against players who I think are boring to play against. I guess I'm a tryhard casual as in I somewhat enjoy tryharding but I mostly play for fun & am not trying to become a god.

[@crimsonwarrior3500]

Btw ZeRo, if someone disconnects, lags out, or ragequits, no gsp will be gained or lost by either player. But if you disconnect, lag out, or ragequit, the next time you try to play quickplay the game will be like "Hey you disconnected in you last fight. We don't know if its connection problems, or some other problem, but don't disconnect again or we'll have to suspend you from online play for a while." It starts off with a 30 minute ban, but gets longer the more you disconnect.

[@PorkShark]

"If you quit you don't even have a chance to come back" Bruh the chances of me taking a single stock from you or any other similarly skilled player are the same chances as winning the lottery

[@megametexe5129]

The way how I see it is when you notice the skill gap between you and your opponent is too great continuing the match really is just a waste of time. You both know what the outcome of the match will be and a comeback is only really possible if the Gap in skill isn't that far off and you're capable of seeing what you're doing wrong as well as are able to fix it mismatch. If you can't do that repeatedly fighting a battle where there's no chance of an upset just gets boring to watch and isn't fun to play. Just be sure to take your L like a man before you walk away.

[@defibillytor6639]

But if you don't play the lottery, you can never win the lottery

[@1stbestpokemaster]

That’s the mindset of someone who won’t get far in the first place. If someone is vastly better than I am (doesn’t happen often) I analyze during the match. If you know your going to lose, you have already lost. That’s only true if you assume your going to lose. I always assume no matter who I play that I’m going to win. Even if they are better than me. Because all I have to do is learn, and adapt, and figure out holes in their gameplay. Like me, they are human, and make mistakes. Sometimes it’s just about who can exploit the others mistakes and adapt better. If you go in with a “oh he’s better so I’m gonna lose” mindset, might as well sell the game and switch and go do something else. Everyone has the ability to get better, and winning is only as impossible and you yourself make it. That’s true both literally and figuratively.

[@protoman111]

The problem is you're only thinking binary. Wins vs Losses. At the end of the day, yeah it's about that, but do you know how much of an impression you're gonna make when you take someone from 3 stocks 1? I played plenty of matches (with friends and online) where I was basically about to be three-stocked then flipped the pancake taking 2 stocks on my one stock (and in some cases winning the game). Not only can you make an impression, you can possibly make your opponent choke as they may potentially get desperate to end the match. NEVER give up until you hear the announcer announce the end of the match.

[@megametexe5129]

What you guys don't seem to understand is the vast chasm in skill that can exist between players. No one's saying that people can't get better and eventually win but within the span of a single match or even a few hours of playing with somebody? For some people closing that Gap just isn't possible in that time. Think of it this way if you're challenged to a competitive match by a well built competitive mixed martial artist when you have very little experience and he isn't holding back. It doesn't matter how many times you fight him that day you're not winning. But of course if you go home and train for a few months learn a few fighting styles and workout your odds of beating him next time will definitely improve. But all that takes time and you can't make up for all of that over the course of a few hours in the ring with him your first time around. That fight is not winnable at your current skill level no matter how much you throw yourself at him that day. The important thing is that you don't give up on trying to improve yourself if you really want to grow. whether it be in competitive fighting or a video game. Train with people just above your skill level so you can grow properly and improve gradually over time. There's nothing wrong with turning down a fight you know you have no chance in winning that's just knowing your own limits. there's a difference between knowing your limitations and flat-out giving up. Not everybody can start playing on the hardest difficulty some people have to start at a lower level before they can attempt the hardest difficulty.

[@GSEleven]

Yeah, people make content like..."Can I get to Elite from 0 GSP?" Obviously, if you are good enough. I can do that myself with my main if I could get to 0 GSP with them. They vaguely explain things people do and how knowing how to fight against it is important. I have applied airdodging against Sonic homing attack and it has already done more for me than most tips videos could on their own. It made me go back and watch sets of ZeRo to learn more. My skill jumped significantly in only one day.

[@Marcusjnmc]

I think it might be from the huge numbers of people who tanked their own accounts & then left them there , gsp roughly ranks you in relation to everybody else , so in theory at some point when everyone below you has farmed thousands of deliberate losses over the lifespan of the game it won't be possible to go below them & hit 0

Kinda funny how he’s asserting actual logic to the silly things that the people at low GSP’s do. As someone who got stuck there for a while, I know how that feels to not be gaining any GSP at all, but great job getting to 2 mill 🎉😂 (24:05 And by the way if the other person disconnects the GSP changes get cancelled, some people time it perfectly so they still play the whole match but if they lose nothing happens 😛)

So, if there is any disconnection in the match at all, (you know when the game lags out for like 6 seconds) the match is considered incompleteable, ergo, no one gains points. Usually it's because the other player probably rage quit.

Something I learned from Alpharad’s second channel: your GSP gains or losses are based on your win/loss ratio. If you played a ton of matches trying to get as low as you can, then you’ve basically nerfed your potential gains. Also, you don’t gain any GSP whatsoever if they disconnect before the match is over. Might explain a few of your null results.

[@gr8645]

The quitter loses GSP. You just don't see it.

[@TirsophChaistern]

@@gr8645 I know that's not true because I have disconnected mid-match several times (usually when I get to a match in weird stages, with 4 players, items, specials or extremely laggy opponents) and I have never lost a single point.

[@gr8645]

@@TirsophChaistern I know it IS true because I just tested it. Went in a quickplay match and quit mid-match. Lost 31,303 GSP.

[@TirsophChaistern]

@@gr8645 man, that's cool and all, but you can't convince me to believe something different from what I've seen so many times for the past three years 😅 The fact I haven't lost GSP so far is the sole reason why I keep quitting matches I don't feel like playing; needless to say I've checked my GSP everytime afterwards. However, I admit it's been a while since I last did that; I haven't played quickplay in 6 months or so. Therefore, I don't think it'd be crazy if what you said actually became a thing in the latest updates and I hadn't notice. I'll check it out when I play that mode again. 🤔

Make it a series I wanna see how many wins it takes to go from 0 GSP to elite smash

[@jimmysean6362]

Ever time zero doesn’t upload I get ptsd that he’s not coming back

[@petramacneary8152]

So zero hasn’t uploaded a video today at 7am pacific time. Just wanna make sure he’s ok.

[@calebdelaney1162]

I like these type of videos. You rise up the latter of elite smash, and you give explanations to habits and how to play in general.

[@maattt._.]

This potential series looks great! Perhaps a different character every few episodes to give tips for each? could be a welcome addition to it imo...

[@Dr4gon785]

He should do one character at a time. You can't get gsp for other characters. It would just slow his progression. 21 battles just to reach 2 million gsp. Online is awful. That and every match is ranked unless you join arena's.

[@maattt._.]

@@Dr4gon785 yeah thats true forgot that since I barely do online anymore ty

[@alexanderbousman1990]

I would love to see a video series on this! I love your analysis and commentary of the fight itself, spotting habits that the opponent does often and things that they can improve upon to make them better as players. This is just one of the many reasons why I believe you are a cut above other Smash Bros. content creators and why I would love to see a series like this continue!

[@AmaneKoruba]

Yeah, ZeRo, in case you ever do this again, you should just pure not count or have a different counter for disconnects as they do not affect your GSP whatsoever. So in reality, to get to 2 mil gsp, it took the wins minus the disconnects since those pretty much didn’t exist

[@creeperaeman1237]

[@danieldelgado8331]

dose any one know why zero didn’t upload today?

[@marklabs4612]

Your gameplay analysis of n00b mistakes is brilliant, and I loved this video. Great content! I have my Sephiroth in elite smash at 10.3 M GSP, and I'd love to see another video breaking down how to use him better, special techs, etc. I'm trying to learn from Nairo and Ned, but I feel like I've hit a wall, and no one is using him competitively

[@iweerd_rain7074]

Ay, where did man go? Thought it was daily from now on! Very sad times indeed :(

[@ridethelightning247]

Yes. Love that the video is 25 minutes, and love that it's focused on critique. I want this series.

[@cameronbates8742]

Hey zero, you probably won’t read this, but you can do this! It’s very hard beating a bad mental state but if anyone can do it, it’s the best smash 4 player In the world. Also, Ligma balls. ;)

[@bryanromero2355]

Hell yeah! Learned a lot in this video! Keep it going!

[@bencolter1117]

This makes sense. Every time I’m trying to climb the GSP ladder, I probably just keep running into you tubers and streamers doing these challenges 🤷🏻‍♂️ Yeah. That must be it.

[@skylo706]

This video is a dream coming true for me, because I always loved your Diddy an I main him myself because of you and now seeing almost half an hour of you playing hil in different scenarios while giving advise is so awesome

[@jean-sebastiencaron7198]

this video literally proves how flawed the GSP system used in ultimate is

[@Daniel328DT]

I wish there was an unranked battle for casual play. You almost can't expect a 1v1 setting where someone isn't trying too hard. Arenas are good, but I feel it's rough to have good matches when skill levels are constantly overlapping each other.

[@adnejohnvatsvag4532]

To be honest: your content is really good man. I like how you are describing your thought process as you go. Good sh*t man

[@thelordoftheweebs9501]

No upload today?

[@jorge4DL]

Bro I got into smash when I first saw your vids a couple of years ago, when you left I lost every interest in the game after a couple of weeks. Seeing you playing again, makes me want to play again, thanks bro and keep the good work! 💚

[@FeelEhx]

Oh oh, zero missed an upload, what happened?

[@TheSneakyVikingJarl]

I really liked this video. The commentary about what you’re doing and why and what the other players are doing wrong or well was really informative

[@assassinsfan99]

Where the new vid?

[@ckalebtoday]

Commentary is super helpful, it's always nice to see your thoughts on this game

[@JonnyDarcko]

Low GSP peeps give up easy because they KNOW when a high level player purposely lowers their GSP just so they can annihilate them. Its very very very common.

[@mikegamikega]

I disagree. A lot of times a player can be very good with their character and still be low GSP because of things like lack of matchup knowledge, inconsistent play, whiffed punishments, SD’s, etc. I have a few low GSP characters that I haven’t played since starting the game and have gotten much better with them so I have embarrassed a few players but my lack of matchup experience with that character has set me back many times. Which is also another point that people start the game off bad and come back to characters when they are better and with the way the GSP system works, they are in the same bracket they were in when they sucked at the game. Having a lot of previous losses also prevents them from climbing at a rate that they otherwise should.

[@novashy7119]

I'd love for more of this series, you're a very good teacher for this game, I've learned more from you then I ever could alone. Looking forward to more uploads
