Launch Smash Ultimate - Kazekono (Little Mac, Zelda, Cloud) VS JJ | Jick Jrew (Inkling) SSBU Pools

[@PsyrikAntz967831]

all these other stages are now legal just to see people still play on the damn Animal Crossing stages🤦‍♂️

Megalo the Scrub lmao relax

It's a fun stage, man. But yeah, would be cool to see more variety I suppose

Lamier Anthony pretty sure the guy was being lax about it idk what your deal is

[@toxronin3971]

This was really clean. One thing I took away from this is that splat roller demands respect

[@Dualgas]

It's basically the case that Inkling wins the stock the second you get to 100%. It's way too easy to land to be a kill move

[@gleamingroses2952]

I know right? I'm struggling against them. lol

I think Ultimate's mechanics fit Cloud's play style better than Smash 4's did

[@Matanumi]

eh... if anything blade beam is better for that... but his hitboxes and limit just aren't as good. and he relies on limit

[@jesterjaded73]

All of the sword characters look amazing now imo because they're faster and have better spacing tools. Roy is a joy to watch now too

Cloud us still the cancer he is like luigi, jigglypuff and sonic. Duh

[@InternetMonster1]

Mac Side B is a strong counter to Inkling roller.

True

[@ProlificPops]

The Jolt Haymaker is a good counter to a lot of moves. And it can be really unpredictable if you don't spam it.

[@Vulpentine]

Counter is a good counter lol

Why do they keep referring to "Richter's" moves? Like why not Simon, he's the main one

[@1995creed]

how come they are allowed to character switch even if they win the match? i though it was an universal rule that you can only switch if you lose.

[@MaestroCasts]

Smash is different because the loser also gets to counterpick stages, which has an effect on character matchups. In most other fighting games, stages are purely visual and have no influence whatsoever on matchups. The full order is this: 1. Winner gets to ban 1 or 2 stages (the amount depends on which Smash game). 2. Loser gets to pick their stage from the remaining options, in an attempt to counterpick the winner. 3. Winner has the option to switch their character, theoretically in order to mitigate the effect of the loser's stage counterpick. 4. Loser gets to choose their character after the winner has locked theirs, giving them final counterpick advantage.

[@alfonsocastro623]

Zelda main here!

[@arenderos1]

Inkling really depends so much on that roller to up smash so much

[@Mello-Moonlight]

Hey guys, I’m new to playing Smash. I used to play Melee as a kid (as casual as casual gets). Can anybody Tell Me how Cloud is moving so fast? Is he using SHFFL? Is SHFFL even in SSBU? I’ve been practicing short-hop fast-falling but this Cloud seems to be doing it 100x faster than me. What other inputs would cancel/reset your hop so quickly??

[@beatsacct7801]

there is no l cancel in this game which is what you're referring to with shffl. its more just shff in this game cuz landing lag was reduced across the board, theres a short hop aerial buffer system to throw out short hop aerials perfectly to setup autocancels. i'd suggest watching izaws guide, it explains alot of things about the games mechanics.

[@P3rks0fLife]

So I’m new to the Smash competitive scene so excuse my ignorance but why did Kazenoko get to switch characters after winning game 2?? Are the rules w/ switching characters between games different for Smash?

[@Enowise]

The winner can switch his character, but he's doing so before the loser, which allows counterpicks from the loser Pretty sure it's always been like this in any Smash game

[@P3rks0fLife]

Enowise How come Smash is the only fighting game that you can do this in?

Wow; i think we know who's the better of the Princesses by now then. With that Phatom for the phantom-slash special, may just be the new Rosalina. Underrated

[@Matanumi]

alright throwing this out there.... yes the limit nerf is interesting and overall better for less campy cloud play... but 15 seconds? with no visual warning? bullshit I feel like Cloud relies too much on limit for killing... and also you LOSE limit if you get hit while charging it. I propose to up it to 30 seconds and give some kind of warning... otherwise I'm loving this Cloud its more fair while still badass and fun

[@Vulpentine]

half a minute is long as, the change is fine but they should have a clear visual indicator

[@showmeyourmoves8551]

Lol. Other characters dont even have limit to begin with. He is still cancer. Thank god, marth is now the real best swordsman again

No visual warning? Isn’t his limit bar right above his character icon though? Literally right next to the percentages lol
