[@YOSSARIAN313]

Highly underappreciated character. One of the problems with such a huge cast is the players are spread across character so thin that the meta is very unexplored and no characters are very optimized. Wii fit has some of the best specials in the game. She is rewarded for spamming projectiles too. The biggest issues are her weird aerial hitboxs and short range in neutral

[@ricocarpenter2189]

Yeah them aerial hitboxes really are the death of her. Her back air, down air, and up air are mostly straight forward but her Nair and fair are just so weird and awkward to use.

[@Mepphy99]

She isn't rewarded for spamming Projectiles. She Is rewarded when She combs those projectile into stuff or to create the perfect way for her to enter in*

[@7AM_Tzar]

Very stubby hitboxes but with threat of pivot cancel f tilt and rar/slingshot Bair combined with great @0% dmg, especially off Nair or backwards hit fair/fair and some other conversions @0% with deep breathing active, make for a really dangerous advantage state but fairly straightforward neutral plan.

[@7AM_Tzar]

Disadvantage state is really rough for wii fit though, because when the opponent isn't forced to make errors, many of your worst matchups will be you getting stuck in a position where you can do very very little do get in enough to do your best dmg, too far to end a stock, and unable to poke because they can afford to shield or jump over projectiles.

[@rngesus967]

Just a little correction on the healing thing: Hero can only get Heal reliably two times per stock (MAYBE three times if you count getting it in Hocus Pocus). And Wii Fit isn’t the only character who can heal themselves back to zero. Robin can too with enough Down-B usage, but I’m not sure if that counts as being “on paper” as he said in the video. Not a knock against the video though, it’s very well made.

[@skyeschlueter9877]

Ness and Lucas can too, but that relies on your opponent being an idiot, so probably not reliable.

[@UniversalName]

Robin, Lucas, Ness, Mii Gunner and Wario can recover to 0 but all of those depend on having an opponent. Mr Game and Watch can also do it on his own but it is definitely not reliable. I think Wario could also do it on his own by eating his bike

[@paul_particularlyunhappynut]

[@themidnightotaku22]

Oh, speaking of Sonic’s f-smash & Wii-fit’s hit boxes, I should probably look at where the hit box is on each of my usual mains’ attacks are when I start playing again. It might come in handy.

[@simplord9788]

I main Wii Fit and you've hit the nail on the head. The mentions of their hitboxes is so true, a lot of their moves are awkward to hit and unforgiving in terms of whether the move connects or not, and therefore similar to Shulk in a sense, Wii Fit feels a bit clunky to play. However in saying all this, once you get used to their unique movement, they're quite interesting to play. Learning the weird hitboxes, from utilising the back portion of the side smash, to the small back part of the foot on jab, to the meteor effect the sole of Wii Fit's foot has on their fair can really catch opponents off guard and be fun to pull off. Side B cancelling the soccer ball and hitting it in different ways, or meteor smashing with your forehead of that move really adds a lot of dynamic to the character than what you might see at first glance, and ultimately for me creates a super fun and unique playstyle to the game. If you want a character that can be quite unpredictable at the best of times, with a somewhat quirky playstyle, I highly recommend giving Wii Fit a shot. Very fun to play, all the while being pretty rewarding once you've got the hang of them.

[@Driff97]

Reminder: Wii Fit Trainer was chosen SPECIFICALLY because nobody requested her. I don't know if this will be brought up later in the video, I just watch the intro blurb and he didn't mention it but it's very, very important to consider.

The biggest problems with Wii fit is that they have no answer to small characters, and basically lose to shield, their grab is not good, they aren't fast enough to grab out of a small burst range, so basically someone can just shield and force wii fit to approach with awful aerials with no hitboxes to force anything.

[@stevenliang3213]

And the fact that they are a one trick pony. Every advanced WFT player more or less play the same way. It’s very easy to counter them provided you have the right tools (disjoints, reflector, speed, etc)

[@bladearmorginga6582]

Honestly the best way to describe learning wii fit, is learning a brawler with tippers. Knowing the hitboxes is crucial the dual hitboxes are so useful. Someone running up to you most people would expect a tilt attack or dash attack to combat, but wiifit can just use the back hit of jab and re establish pressure.

[@SK-df1iw]

One of the things that I think attracts wft players to the character is header. this move has some of the highest potential for creativity in the game. It’s one of the few moves I’d actually compare to Snake’s nades in terms of how much you can do with it. Firstly, deep breathing header can do up to 40% if you land the headbutt and the ball hit and can be combo’d into with nair for a ~55% combo which is absurd. the player had a lot of control over the angle of the ball, similar to Rob’s laser. the biggest thing though is that if you cancel the header by pressing side b and then shield before she headbutts the ball, the ball will fall to the ground without her hitting it. Since wft’s ball interacts with hitboxes, you can launch the ball in even more angles by hitting it with any of your moves. using dair on the ball makes it move forward kinda slowly while bouncing up and down. If the ball hits, you can combo off of it since you can run after the ball (similar to pika running after tjolt and comboing off of it). If they shield, WFT is + on shield and can grab them before they can act out of it. the thing that blew my mind the most when playing vs this character was when I was recovering high on Snake and the WFT cancelled header and then used the *reverse hit of ftilt* to launch the ball into the air and snipe me in the top blastzone since Im p sure that the header ball’s trajectory when hit depends on the knockback direction of the attack that hit it. There are so few moves in the game that can offer these many options.

[@SK-df1iw]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4SUYqdvmshqfsk This montage shows a bunch of the creativity you can do with this move.

[@quipo2029]

2:18 canonically kirby kills gods on a daily basis so him fighting with bayonetta isn't that unrealistic.

[@RedPandaSmash]

I disagree with one thing and that's your point on the hitboxes beings very accurate to where they would be on the limbs. In smash 4, oh yeah that was a huge problem, but in ult they fixed just about every hitbox to be very generous so she can hit shorter characters or characters in close. Even if there isn't a hitbox on her body, like for ftilt, the front and back hitboxes are close enough together to prevent her from getting royzoned. The only move id still say can be particularly tough to hit is fair, since it's meant to be diagonal, also they did put a little butt hitbox, which is nice. The bigger issue, I think, is that her best combos, damage, and kill confirms come from landing aerials, and wii fit takes a while to jump and come down with something, so her most rewarding stuff is pretty telegraphed. Her neutral ends up being nickel and diming from mixups. Pelting people with projectiles, rpsing with dash grab, planking. When it works it really works and it feels helpless for the person fighting her, but you really feel the limits of the character when the trickery doesn't work out.

I thought a Banjo vid would come before Wii Fit

[@dedmeme21]

To add on to what I said earlier, banjo has consistently been one of the most requested characters for smash since melee and was extremely hyped up during his e3 reveal. To tie in with what you said about Wii fit not having a home for players to associate the character with banjo has one of the most dedicated player bases there is for a dead character yet has almost no competitive representation in smash.

[@WhiteKnuckleRide512]

Olimar is high tier though? And banjo is just bad

[@aronspiker72]

@@dedmeme21 basically the only way for Banjo to be viable at all in higher levels of play is to play in the most boring way possible for both the players and spectators because everything not related to their camping are about as strong as the average Smash 4 low tier, so you flat out don't have the option to play Banjo in a fun way since his aerials are fairly bad for the most part (especially Dair and Nair- in comparison to most other nairs at least), his tilts suck for anything other than 2-framing, and he just has a terrible damage output in general and has a hard time killing onstage without getting grabs. I really wished Sakurai design Banjo with an actual gameplan and archetype in mind rather than just focusing entirely on stuffing as many references into their moveset as humanly possible and not caring about cohesion in their kit.

[@buttery_gooch6]

wii fit not having body hitboxes is one of tbe best parts of her design imo, her game focuses on you doing exercises with perfect form (hence why you have a guide to help you), so having her character force you to perfectly space your attacks is smash's way of saying "do this exercise with good form." good form from wii fit becomes good spacing in smash

[@stompsalot]

I love this series! :D coming from first watching your Robin video, I think your explanations are easy to follow & well-demonstrated visually; hardly seems like a video well over 10-minutes, and can't wait to see more! would be interested to see what kit changes you think would make Zelda more viable beyond the obvious "sweetpots more than 1 frame" ...biased obviously, but I think newcomers are deterred from rather high upkeep & somewhat steep learning curve to her tech (edge cancelling, phantom displace, etc) that can seem daunting to some or gimmicky to others, preventing most from seeing the gems of utility throughout her seemingly-garbage kit, conversely making nearly every move (except maybe D-smash, which while rarely used, has its uses) functionally-necessary & I can't imagine cutting any of them just to buff another move, which isn't true for many other fighters who usually have a few gargabe moves but have that offset by broken ones, whereas yeah, Zelda's got Phantom, but to truly make it useful outside of just ledge-trapping & forcing approaches, displacement is the only way I personally survive spamming Phantom in mid-range neutral in certain matchups, blocking PK Fire etc

The problem with WFT I think is that the character has a kind of one-dimensional gameplan. While many characters in this game can be played in multiple different ways, this doesn't seem to be the case with Wii Fit, and once you know what their gameplan is, you can counter what they are doing.

[@WhiteKnuckleRide512]

If you think that then you haven’t played a good wii fit haha. There are a ton of different ways the character can be played, and good wii fits know how to switch between them depending on the situation. It’s easy to see when compared to a character like Samus, who DOES have an extremely one dimensional but effective gameplan at top level.

[@WhitePointerGaming]

@@WhiteKnuckleRide512 Samus has multiple different ways that can be played at top level. quik and sisqui, arguably the two best Samuses at the moment in terms of results, play completely differently, for example. YB, Yavia, Joker, Icymist, Teaser all have their own unique playstyles too. Knowing how to fight against one of those players does not prepare you for fighting against another even though they play the same character. But every Wii Fit I've seen - EVERY one, whether it's top level or not, always have the same gameplan of camping the ledge. They might have different methods of doing so but they all do it. And once you get a download on how that player likes to camp the ledge, you can beat them.

Honestly, she's definitely had great moments and is extremely fun to play as, but I stopped playing her to focus on getting better with my main, Dark Pit. I'm going to pick her back up now though because not a day goes by where I think about beating people with an ACTUAL human fighter (not some 17-year-old boxer who can kill at 20% bc he is literally on steroids). It just makes me appreciate Wii Fit Trainer more when she really shines as a fighter, and she is also my favorite female fighter in ssbu

2:18 More like a long-legged witch duking it out with an all-powerful god-smiting angel killer.

2:20 I agree. There is no way Bayonetta could ever stand up to Kirby in a fight

[@leifster7762]

You're probably right about them but I like Wii FT due to their unique and unorthadox moveset being appealing to me. Also I think Female Wii Fit is pretty hot....

What I learned from this video: I need workout tips from Vars

Why no one plays Meta Knight would be cool to see. I've seen a few videos from a Meta Knight main and Meta Knight seems cool but hardly anyone plays him

[@reinforcedpenisstem]

True. It's rare.

This is guide serves as an amazing introduction to the character

Bayonetta: I can kill a God Wii fit trainer: I can kill you with my GLUTES

Wii Fit Trainer mains when you're offstage: Ball? Yes Rico, Ball

[@thewanderers97]

Love these videos, however I feel like the hitbox comparisons could be kept on screen for a bit longer as right now I'm having to replay the same few seconds a few times before I'm able to properly take in both hitboxes

[@stevelucky7579]

Hmmm I pick…..Captain Falcon from the F-Zero racing game where there are no people other than a small picture when captain falcon is first introduced as a character.

[@Zobi_YT]

Honestly would love to see a video on Banjo because I feel like no one plays him for almost the exact opposite reasons you mentioned of wii fit.

Sakurai: they think they can leak my game? It’s time for the plant plan.

[@megacrafter961]

Maybe do a „Why everyone plays“ or something like that

[@JazzoBeat]

"Considering their game of origin has nothing to do with combat or any form of confrontation against an opposing entity" How about me trying to get out of my bed when I wanna do Wii fitness?

[@UltimateTS64]

Ayo that clip at 1:29 with Tei Tenga, I actually know that guy we used to be friends on Discord and he even played in a wifi tourney I hosted for my birthday one year with my friends. It's cool to see how far he's come and to know I played with someone as good as him

[@Sweetjellydonut]

You compared Kirby and Bayonetta like Kirby doesn't defeat eldritch horrors for breakfast

[@cowblast_]

as a wii fit trainer player, they're super fun to play and its funny as hell that they're in smash
