The Super Smash Bros Brawl TAS Is Incredible - Subspace Emissary 100% Explained

[@EZScapeSpeedruns]

Break up with basic browsers! Get Opera GX here: operagx.gg/EZScapeSpeedruns

[@Protofall]

Sorry, but hard pass. The company is pretty shady. But I am glad you were able to scam them out of some of their ad money, well done ;)

[@lancesmith8298]

Kid named Chrome-based browser: Look the best thing about internet browsers is that they are fucking free. You have infinity options to not sell your personal data

[@Ze_eT]

Mozilla Firefox is infinitely better. Opera GX keeps adding bloat upon bloat, either as an excuse to collect more data or because they want to be "hip and cool", while Firefox keeps features to stuff one would actually need. Get uBlock as well, and you got a pretty competent browser. And I honestly have no clue why they try to make Opera GX seem like it uses low amounts of memory and processing power; it is one of the worst browsers in that department, even worse than Google Chrome. Again, Firefox keeps it to the necessary stuff, so it is much lighter on your computer.

@@lain7758 I dunno how to tell you this, but you don’t have to blame everything on a non-America country when you’re mad. Google is still very much in California, just like every other big tech vampire with a marketing team

i love seeing peach fly through the air only to instantly strut calmly and confidently through a door

[@kitsuneprincess4637]

47:42 The Meta Ridley fight on top of the Falcon Flyer is one of the most epic scenes in all of Smash Bros. The way the ship wobbles and flames as Meta Ridley slams into it is SO COOL

[@mercilesschara5753]

the being damaged, flung off screen, and yet still surviving hting is something i found as a kid accidentally and love it

[@the_bookworm8281]

For more advertisement of Dyllon's new Any% TAS, it features heavy use of the Reverse Pause Glitch discovered at the end of the 100% one shown in this video, and it features the first ever Tabuu quick kill.

[@Yobby2442]

Absolutely love the genre of explained speedruns. I love being unfamiliar with specific tech and still understanding what’s happening. Awesome work, and thank you.

[@idontwantahandlethough]

Me too. I love this whole emerging field of "speedrun science", for lack of a better term. It's so neat!

[@8py8]

rolling the is this an april fools video roulette

[@THEDEY2]

is it?

[@idontwantahandlethough]

@@THEDEY2 no

[@doorto6152]

Honestly would’ve loved to learn how he routed the mob clears. Especially the big one at 46:00. Because, at this point, a lot of the video is “does this does this does this”. So stopping to introduce new tech and bring up the guest would be a fresh change of pace.

[@DyllonStejGaming]

Those basically come down to a large amount of trial and error in regards to both despawning enemies as quickly as possible (KOing them and launching them into other enemies, close blastzones, or items that react to getting hit) and spawning new enemies in (As some sets of enemies only spawn when a particular enemy unit is defeated and despawned). Not helping matters is the variety of item drop RNG that has drastic changes across the whole run depending on exactly what item drops at what specific time. The "secret" is that I've been TASing Brawl's version of Subspace for almost four whole years, and previously did Project M Subspace TASes for about four years before that. I still don't know if any of these large Ambush sections are truly being completed as fast as possible (I frankly "can't" because Chaos Theory is in full effect here and would require far too much bruteforcing capability than what's currently possible), but I do know from experience that some "starting points" are better than others - Examples include immediately manipulating a Bob-Omb with Peach at the Midair Stadium Ambush, and starting off with a Super Mushroom and a Cracker Launcher at the Bomb Factory 2 Ambush.

[@TompaA]

This TAS is a pure masterpiece.

[@aplsed]

You forgot to mention how he used heavy SDI during the boosts to get where he needs to go. Basically, *Smash Directional Influence* (officially known as "Hitstun Shuffling") is a technique in the Smash games that basically allows you to shift your character away using the control stick from an attack to get out of combos or multi-hit moves. It is used practically every time Dyllon uses a damage boost, and its always a little bit before they launch. A great example of this happens extremely quickly at around 21:10, when Meta Knight boosts off the spiked wall to enter the optional door. For about 13 frames after hitting the spikes, the control stick is being mashed from one direction to the next, shifting MK's trajectory downwards in front of the door so when he launches, he techs and dashes to the door before the camera can catch up with him. Although, in hindsight, its probably for the best you left this out for pacing reasons as it _is_ a lot for the average viewer to grasp in such a short time alongside literally EVERYTHING ELSE.

[@idontwantahandlethough]

Well I appreciated the added info, so thanks dog 🤗 I hope your Monday goes as well as a Monday can!

[@superbaas8822]

[@minaly22]

Ah yes, Turnip Terrorist Bomber princess, the run.

[@taiwanisacountry]

I loved commentated TAS runs. :-) it is crazy the amount of work that goes into a single run. Sure normal speed runs takes skills in execution, but TAS takes that to a whole other level.

[@idontwantahandlethough]

I think it's so cool that work from tons of people goes into them. It's more of a "team sport" that speedrunning usually is (even though speedrunning is always kinda a team sport. Or at least a single person sport with a pit crew..?)

[@taiwanisacountry]

@@idontwantahandlethough i see it like skateboarding. You perform it individually but you celebrate and share your skills as a community/team. Like the bone Bredgade. I am not old enough to have seen them when they actually did skated, but they were a team.

[@maxshaw1930]

15:39 Fighting Rayquaza went so unbelievably hard as a kid. No turn based mechanics, just raw, primal power vs. monkey

[@TheOobo]

I am rolling at how the insane tas techniques are occasionally interrupted by completely normal gameplay cheese. "A series of rng manipulated bombs let us damage boost across the entire level. Next, we hit 'em with the Dedede suicide succ."

[@666blaziken]

This is such a great taste, thanks for explaining all the mechanics in the run!

[@CielMC]

I think the CC is broken around 6:50, it was going really fast. Perhaps someone forgot to change the timestamps?

[@WintryFox]

A lot of what the captions say there isn't actually said out loud, even though some of it definitely seems important.

[@PolandSphere]

Seeing the TAS breeze through the Great Maze level hurts me because I got lost there for hours as a kid trying to figure out where to go.

[@crazyabe4571]

I honestly didn't know they made a Smash Brothers Pinball game, thanks for showing it off.

[@coleminer8847]

Moral of the story its ok to hurt yourself, as long as you dont die

[@FreeBilly112]

Dude I Just pulled this story mode out earlier, Co-op and everything and then I go on to see you post this and because I spent a while looking for that cheese and the timing is nuts

[@graduator14]

Great detailed run! Nice to know the details of every movement!

[@superbaas8822]

Shoutouts to Yoshi's absolutely massive ass also being able to tank enough damage to launch as mostly mind boggling percentages compared to other playables.

[@ailurophilekia6565]

As a Peach fanboy, I'm glad there was so much of her in the run.

[@KarasuGamma]

I wish every TAS had a video like this.

[@humongofrog]

I've been watching DyllionStej since he put out the first subspace tas and this video was the one that I learned how to properly pronounce his channel name

[@randomknight2585]

You’ve seen speedrunning Mario, you’ve seen wavedashing Falco, now get ready for TAS Peach.

[@pheldsparr]

25:22 I don't know why I laughed at this harder than I did at the Bowser fight.

[@MerryMichaelmas]

The final fight at 52:52 is over so amazingly fast! Impressive.

[@SuperBox_Ray]

The final fight with Tabuu took pretty much exactly 4 seconds from the first frame of spawn to the frame Tabuu's health is reduced to 0, give or take a couple frames.

[@SayaAensland]

22:04 I like how they manipped a trip right there so it looks like Metaknight just landed on his face.

[@Beeboppering]

I wonder if the Jigglypuff fight would be faster if you tricked them into blocking and hit them their shield with a Mr. Saturn

[@Trackerjacker257]

Peach being a terrorist wasn't on my bingo card, but it is now!

[@gnostechnician]

I really do appreciate the inclusion of non-automatic subtitles... but these ones are quite bad, often containing large amounts of text (I assume directly copied from the script) which aren't said out loud and also go by blisteringly fast. It's very disorienting.

[@SirJorb]

Here to echo this sentiment. Once it happened for the second time, I had to turn them off. It actually makes the audio *harder* to process, rather than easier.

[@PowdergameFan18]

Never knew about the 3 secret characters growing up!

[@The-JAILOR]

bro really said "most favorite" in the first sentence of the video

[@idontwantahandlethough]

...that's grammatically accurate though, just like when your mom says "you're her least favorite child". Did you think it was supposed to be favoritest..?

[@freedomenico]

​@@idontwantahandlethough "Favorite" already implies superlative, adding "most" is redundant. "Least favorite" is perfectly correct but it's a different thing.

Could someone please explain, why the "damage boost" does not result in your character taking damage?

[@Fireshot844]

The damage boost does cause the character to take damage. Their percent increases.

[@dmytrohorodetskyi2630]

@@Fireshot844 Ah, I see, so the percent is the amount of damage you received and the more you got the easier you can get out of bounds and well, die Thank you!!

​@DyllonStejGaming just in this comment section or like ever? Also are you Nicolas Cage because that would explain why you sound like him.

really really good video, the ai inbetween frames you used for slo motion stuff is really pretty ugly though it does not look good

[@Takato]

Why is there an interpolation filter on top of some clips?

It must take so long to work out an efficient way to attack enemies and move while also manipulating RNG the way you want.
