Very well put together with clear and concise information. Couldn't ask for more in a character guide. Thank you so much.

[@Wildcard-166]

Thank you brother, I appreciate the kind words :)

[@Dr_Kokosnuss]

I searched a while to find this kind of Quality

[@Winterhe4rt]

I wish there was a word about how to insta grab the ledge after using the tether. Other than that this was amazing indeed.

[@xelazabub]

I've been jumping between like 4 old videos of Samus how-tos for months. and this is 100% so much better. It even has the button guides !!! Samus/DS have always been my favorite, but I haven't improved much within the 4 years I've been playing. I know this is gonna take my plays to a whole new level. Thank you!!!

[@Wildcard-166]

I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it! I’ve got a few other samus tutorials to do with movement and combos if you want to check them out as well :)

[@grean00]

I skipped ahead to get to the content, then realized I had to restart the video. Love to see it

[@Wildcard-166]

Thanks for the kind words my dude, glad you enjoyed it :)

[@UltimateTS64]

This was a very good guide. I'm looking to pick Samus up as a secondary and this gave me all the basics without being a 30 minute slog fest. Plus now I understand the principles of the character and can start finding my own way from there

[@Wildcard-166]

Thanks brother, all the best of luck with picking up samus :)

[@bruinsgirl3398]

Appreciate the video as someone looking to secondary Samus! I prefer roughly a 95% CS because of the end lag being slightly better than the full CS

[@blaztt7482]

you can start combos with the semi charged charge shot

[@jessiem.8301]

One of the best KZbin tutorials I've seen. I'm subscribing just because of how well put together this was.

[@lceBox]

I'm looking to play more Samus, this guide is great. However, it deserves alot more views!

[@Wildcard-166]

Thanks mate, I appreciate the kind words, I may need to make a follow up vid :)

[@lceBox]

Haha, well that's up to you man. I would watch it!

[@it5memctaco176]

Seamus main here, great vid and was really neat. One small thing is that not fully charged charge shots are actually better for combos, due to not hitting far away. You’ll see most pro players only almost fully charge their shot, and keep it at that in order to get combos that are easier than hitting a full charge shot

[@Wildcard-166]

Correct! In some of my later combo vids I do touch upon the different charge shot percents and what kind of combos you can get out of them :)

[@Elijah-fc3ex]

Might be the best character guide I've ever come across

[@wurmturm]

the tip with cancelling the neutral animation is actually one I hadn't noticed in my own time playing her, really excited to use it

[@Wildcard-166]

[@khoucacola]

I'm a greninja main but I'm considering picking up samus as a secondary for gren's bad matchups (mostly snake)

[@Wildcard-166]

Samus snake is mostly even in my opinion. They both have good ways of dealing with each other. Samus has good range to stay outside of his big hit boxes but grenades have a hurt box and will eat up charge shot. The best way I get around it is to lock snake in shield with charge shots that way it becomes more and more of a risk to pull a grenade and hold it

[@ICEBURGOFFICIAL]

As a Samus main.... thank you

[@Wildcard-166]

[@cameronhoward4718]

Very impressive video! Def subscribing

[@CivilizedMisanthrope]

I don‘t understand how you get the D throw, U-Air x2, up-B combo. The gab created when throwing the enemy makes it impossible for me to hit the U-air or to close the gap and then hit them with an U-air. This game is probably the hardest game I have ever picked up

[@Wildcard-166]

You can use the buffer system to close the gap. So as the down through is about to end in animation, if you double tap forward -> -> you’ll buffer the dash so that means Samus will be a lot closer to the opponent

[@ski11zlol]

helped a lot , thanks

[@MorphBaller388]

Just a quick note for anybody watching this video, the grab button is not ZR by default. It’s R

[@jaedensilva]

I never knew how to do 6:35 that will be a game changer. I'm gonna learn 9:47

[@TylerKehne]

Great vid, just one thing, it's also possible to recover from ledge drop charge shot with bomb->up B, if you're out of tethers

[@WishfullGamedev]

nice, thx

[@taytolson4249]

I just learned how to b reverse omg

[@absalon_5]

@fen gaming man how do you do that on minute 3:30? I can't change samus direction once I jump, please help

[@Wildcard-166]

So you have to tap B and the direction you want very quickly, first B then the direction, it takes a little practice but I'm sure you will get it

[@xavierspirit1811]

One thing to add. Never use fully charged charge shot

[@Trehoik]

Why?

[@xavierspirit1811]

@ because it’s not much more effective than a 80% charged shot AND requires more frames to actually shoot than a partially charged shot AND if it’s fully charged you don’t have access to your bounce cancels and b reverses which are a good mobility tool.

[@Trehoik]

@@xavierspirit1811 thanks, I just play melee that's why I was wondering

[@xavierspirit1811]

@@Trehoik no prob dude. I have the utmost respect for the mêlée community. Y’all are dedicated, and y’all get screwed over by Nintendo all the time. I tried getting into mêlée in Uni and I even had one of the top ten players in the state try to teach me but I couldn’t get the hang of wave dashing so I stuck to smash 4 (ultimate wasn’t out yet). Now i main Samus, and have any FE swordy as an alt, also young link and puff.

[@xavierspirit1811]

I had actually considered trying to get into mêlée but I quickly realized that if I did I’d be a puff main, and I don’t think y’all need more puff mains, and I don’t want the hate.

[@almosender2273]

Great guide but I think the jab lock combo isn’t true, cause enemy can tech right? Still great!

[@Wildcard-166]

Yeah the jab lock is techable but it’s always good to look for it cause it can lead to great extensions

[@Jlopezocasio]

How do you deal with campers like Banjo with egg bomb, Zelda, and mini gunner with grenades and reflect?

[@Wildcard-166]

Characters with reflect I try to use smaller charge shots, it moves slower and isn't as much of a punish if it gets reflected. Mii gunner can be very annoying and that is more of a spacing kind of match up. Banjo/snake there are two thought process with these match ups. 1) get just out of zair range so they can't really burst you but trying to pull out nades will result in a punish. 2) if you spam them with charge shots on their shield they will be able to pull less grenades cause their shield is smaller everytime and starts to become a risk. Hope this helps :)

[@Jlopezocasio]

@@Wildcard-166 I can’t hit banjo with charge shots on his shield cause he always has a bomb out that has as much priority as a full charge beam.

how do you use the green missile, i can only shoot out the homing ones

[@caloreen1992]

I can't even get the down throw, up air, up air screw attack to combo at 1/4 speed in training. The combo counter always resets between up airs even though I am spamming jump to get close again and then mashing up air. And then the I mash screw attack after the 2nd up air and some how I've fallen far enough away where all the 2 first screw attack hits miss. Then I can't hit the up air after down throw in actually game speed no matter how hard I try. So I guess it's time to quit playing this game since I can't even execute a 'simple' combo :\.

[@Wildcard-166]

Don’t stress, try pressing jump and up and A at the same time for the combo, it will help a little bit with the timing I’d you input the jump and A at the same time

[@Wildcard-166]

Don’t give up! You got this
