6:19 what follows is probably the best edge guard Ive ever seen in this game

[@kaito2220]

I don't think that rob thought so XD lad was going nuts in the player cam

[@moist_soup7215]

Counter picking a ridley and then getting mad when you get bodied for not knowing the matchup well as a broken character is actually hilarious. Smub is truly a mid tier hero 6:18

[@kisameh420]

ultimate skill issue

[@liamdoesmath2106]

Ridley winning a tournament? My dream come true

[@TheShirochan10]

Spoiling trash can

[@whispersmusic6173]

Not a major but sure

[@godmode3611]

Just dont let tiers lists and mu charts to get in your head.

[@nervantes]

6:38 - great freakout

[@plasmasupremacy9321]

Haha, I can really feel Justin's pain in this matchup. Smub played like an impenetrable wall, really clean

[@Pokeysanic]

This is Ridley's best Matchup holy

[@shad0wstrife]

I wanna believe ridley is actually good but the only thing holding me back is that he’s so easy to combo

[@nathaniel1014]

how to rotate text in ms paint????

[@nervantes]

This is a great comment

[@lometraid6798]

I'm glad that a Metroid character is a hard counter for a Fire Emblo

[@radandredeemed]

RJ the Ridley from Louisiana. Think was at one point the best Ridley in the US

[@SkyTheStarhero]

....Interesting, this match up is GOOD for ridley?

[@sarahIcommented]

It's not a terrible match-up, but I think that most players just don't have much practice against Ridley.

[@PhantomMarth]

I was going to say it if it wasn't stated by someone else. Ha. R.O.B is horribly favored in the match up

[@sarahIcommented]

@@PhantomMarth Yeah, playing Ridley against R.O.B. is terrible. Byleth is fine.

[@Krona-fb4dn]

Absolutely not lmao. Any ridley player does not have fun against R.O.B. because zoner (who also has exceptional combo tools).

[@xxvolcomxx56]

what does justin’s tag mean?

[@L3thalShad0ws7]

ZD is another Smash player, who has told Justin repeatedly that he'll never figure out the Ridley matchup, hence Justin's tag "ZDwasRight"

[@nickdistrict14]

it’s actually a reference to a chart ZD made once saying Ridley players were carried.

[@Justinbyleth]

@@L3thalShad0ws7 Nooooo haha me and ZD are friends. It's just a joke about how neither of us likes Ridley 😂 I still have immense respect for Smub as a player though, don't get me wrong

[@some_yeast8267]

@@Justinbyleth hey justin, knock knock

[@tradewar3505]

it actually refers to how ZD is right handed

[@MarcelE80]

Lets go SMUB!

[@grapeeggplant3863]

This Justin guy needs to relax he's all over the fucking place swinging around on the chair. Just breathe and calm down dude. It's gonna be just fine win or lose.

[@MrPokemon907]

A TIP (that have been obvious in the mind of players) for Super Smash Competitive players and aspiring Super Smash Competitive players. When you train with a character, train against every other cgaracter on the roster, until you are good enough with your training character, against each one. Do not move on to other characters until you figure each matchup out. Competitive players and commentators constantly talk about matchups. With enough brain power use, matchup is NO problem. Super Smash Ultimate is a VERY balanced game. Learn and PRACTICE against ALL matchups and you are SET for future battle.

[@beangorl7005]

I mean the problem with that mentality is availability of matchups. Against really popular characters you're almost always going to have someone to practice against, whether it's a friend, people at your locals, or even just going online. You don't have to look very far to see people playing like Wolf, Joker, or Steve right now and you can learn the matchups very readily. On the other hand how many people do you see playing like Mii Gunner? Or like Duck Hunt? The commentators mentioned either in this match or another one of Smub's matches that people don't get the opportunity to play against tournament level Ridley players much outside of specific regions.

[@GBA-049]

Or just wing it if you're like me lol

[@shakebruh1710]

Lol why was commentator with the hat throwing so much shade. Whole time everything he said was negative lol

[@tekwizwa]

Wait everyone at my local told me this matchup sucks for Ridley, am I being gaslit?

[@wilburforce8046]

It does suck but Justin sucks more he can’t combo ridely when that’s always ridely’s biggest issue

[@cptcolgenltmajor9246]

Worst matchup however matchups imply both players are equally knowledgeable

[@godmode3611]

Watching the comments.. I think you think too much about the characters and not the players.

[@MrPokemon907]

Byleth might need slight nerf. Looks to me like that player Justin does what I call hogging character advantages. When that player JutinByleth's attack pattern is found out, it is quite over. With practice, JustinByleth looks a potential CHALLENGE challenge in the future. Hogging character move advantages and still doing okay. For right now, I am NOT surprised if Ridley or ANY other character wins against JustinByleth, right now. JustinByleth does not seem to have the safe move techniques down.

[@reenans2860]

don't think that qualifies a nerf. every character in every fighting game usually has at least one thing that seems OP if you don't learn the counterplay. isabelle, Ken in sf series, Arthur in mvc3. are all characters that aren't OP but can blow people up who don't respect them

[@tradewar3505]

Can you explain more about “hogging character advantages”

[@saturatedphat9409]

There is zero reason to nerf Byleth. Is he a better character then Ridley? Yeah. But so are at least half the characters in this game. He’s hardly a dominant character in the meta at this point. There are a lot of characters that need a nerf before byleth.

[@reenans2860]

@tradewar3505 I think he meaning using a characters best moves too much. in this case Byleths nair

[@chrisjackson6149]

@@saturatedphat9409 I personally think Byleth's tether should get nerfed, it's extremely absurd as it is. That being said, talking about nerfs is absolutely pointless because the game will never get patched again.
