There are a lot of fantastic Super Smash Bros Ultimate guides out there. We will not be looking at any of them today. Instead, we're going to take a proper deep dive into ProGuide's horrendous tutorial on the Hero of the Wild (for some reason they didn't even put his name in the title), and break down exactly what it does wrong. This is the first reaction video I've done in awhile and the first of more to come on the MockRockTalk channel. It's a very relaxed format, although I've still tried to liven things up here and there with some editing. Finding a balance between speed and entertainment value will be important for this style in the future, so let me know where I landed!

Thanks for watching! It didn't occur to me to read the original video's comments while I was recording, but I did read them afterwards; while most of them are also making fun of its contents, there are some (likely newer players) thanking them for the helpful advice. Finding uninformed cash grab content like this before the proper stuff can cause major setbacks to someone's growth as a player, so while I think this is easily the meanest video I've ever made, I have no issue with making it. That said, please do NOT go harass the creators of the original, I don't condone this in any way. Two more points of order: a) this was my first reaction video in some time and the first on this channel, so let me know what you thought of the format! And b) yes I'm aware of how sweaty I get by the end. Turns out closing all your doors and windows to stop recording noise in the middle of summer makes things a little hot. Hope you liked watching me slowly dying as much as I liked having to edit it! -Main channel: kzbin.info -Twitter: twitter.com/MrMockRock -Twitch: www.twitch.tv/mockrocktwitch -Patreon: www.patreon.com/mockrock -Teespring: teespring.com/stores/mockrock

I was reading those comments too and my cynical brain told me they were just bots or dummy accounts to give the video traction or some kind of validity. I just found it impossible for anyone to actually walk away from that video feeling like they learned something. But maybe you're right they could just be children who don't know any better

Don’t worry, you can always write off the sweating as you being uncomfortably nervous about how newer players may think that Proguides videos are anything more than cash grabs. Also, as a long time veteran in the smash scene, it does genuinely hurt my soul to see cash grab content that lacks any sort of meaningful info to help newer players. I just hope this video shows up in more newer players recommended to give them an awareness of how to pick out good guides from bad ones

Interestingly enough, Ultimate Link is the only Link who is NOT left-handed. Link was canonically left-handed for much of his earlier games (including Smash 64 all the way to Smash4) but more recent games featuring motion controls have pushed his sword hand to the right. How ProGuides managed to mess this detail up in the only game they could is beyond me.

"Link is left handed" It's amazing how much is wrong with that simple statement. First of all, neither in Breath of the Wild, nor in Smash Ultimate is Link actually left handed. This is proven by the footage they provide, as you pull back the string of a bow with your primary hand, which Link is doing with his right hand. The more important thing is *why the hell would you mention that in a competitive character guide?*

And about the format, honestly any excuse you can come up with to just talk to the mic and explain stuff is good enough for me. Legit you could make MockRockPodcast and upload unscripted, unedited 3-hour long videos and I'd still watch them. But seeing now picky you are with your content's quality I doubt you'll reach that point xP Seriously though, consider doing a podcast of some sort.

18:52 I actually think “this attack” refers to nair, since the script doesn’t mention the “bow” at that point. That makes the advice even worse, as the ability to move around to kind of expand aerial hitboxes is one of the key features of aerials. Link nair in particular allows you to drift smoothly after you throw it out, thanks to its numerous active frames.

the funniest part about the whole "left handed" thing is that, in the evidence they use (him holding a bow) he is very obviously right-handed.

25:40 no bro you were right. rising nair is only safe when you space it(pull back) or cross it up if the opponent shields. Falling, sour spot nair is the nair most of us use for grab. The one you showed is for OOS, Cross ups and spaced for shield pressure. Now we do use that outside of those situations but you can't just spam it close range since you'll eventually get punished for it and Link is mini combo food without a bomb in his hand.

Link main here, you publish this video a day before my birthday, and here i am discovering it. I am in pain at the video you're reacting to but also dying laughing at your reactions XD Also as someone who understands what the heck they're trying to say: 19:55 WTF DO YOU MEAN USE REVERSE UP B AFTER A DOUBLE NAIR WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU TURN AROUND WHEN ATTACKING FROM THE FRONT. Seriously the only way this even makes sense as a "combo" is if you're recovering back to stage, SOMEHOW land 2 nairs in a row while they're trying to edgeguard you and while your opponent is somehow trying to recover from that, you reverse up b to throw THEM off stage while you get to the ledge. It makes NO SENSE, sure he means an Up-B away from ledge but.. you aren't changing direction... it's just an up b. Reversing it implies you're turning around, like when trying to catch someone while YOU'RE recovering

Actually the best way to recover with links bomb is to detonate it on the first 2 actionable frames as Lona's you have forwards drift if you don't you should wait till the bomb is closer to links boady you don't have to wait for him to finish the animation

Link is pulling the arrow in his right hand, and in archery you generally use the opposite of your dominant hand for that.

my ex partner showed me some of their recent videos not too long ago, and the ones where bonk narrates, they are actually quite good. I've noticed that the video quality is highly dependant on if bonk is the narrator, which is usually, but not always the case. they became some of the videos we'd watch when eating dinner or after watching a fighting game stream and wanting fighting game videos to watcj afterwards. i like them a lot! and it makes me wonder just how much influence and input bonk provides, what their role is in the production process. it suggests that the management is still quite poor, they just hired to right person, and leads me to believe their website and content output is VERY different

When he brought up the Iron Boots, I thought you were going to rip in to how irrelevant and random that trivia was. The physics of Iron Boots have NOTHING to do with Smash, and if you only play Link in Smash, there’s a good chance you’ve never even heard of Iron Boots! There is no situation where thinking about Iron Boots would distract you to the point of playing sloppily. It’s a quirk of items that doesn’t make sense but facilitates gameplay IN OCARINA AND TP, but why are they talking about it in a Smash video? I can’t even find the right words for how useless this tangent is.
