From the early days of Metroid on the NES all the way up to Metroid Dread and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Samus' Screw Attack has a long history. Today on the Signature Move Tier List, we'll be putting that history to the test, judging the move on everything from its power levels in Super Metroid, to its design in Metroid Prime Pinball, to its recovery application in the Super Smash Bros. series. Will the Screw Attack manage to rise above its competition? Let's find out!

I've said it before, I'll say it again. I really like the Signature Move Tier List, and I'm sad to see it go. I totally understand why you're making this decision. More work for less reward is a very bad scenario to be in. Just wanted to say I did really like this series and I really appreciate the work you put in to it.

I find it funny how the Screw Attack comes before the Wave Beam and Power Bomb in Dread, like after Samus Returns Mercurysteam had to sit down and decide whether the instakill hitbox attached to an infinite jump should come earlier or later than the traditional midgame wallhack and screen nuke while whispering to themselves "this series is UNHINGED"

There are two characters who I think would be perfect for "Sad Story" videos, and coincidentally they're both from the same series. Zelda and Ganondorf were both introduced to the roster in Melee, and both fighters have radically different playstyles but have suffered similar fates. For each fighter, they were seen as near-unanimous bottom tiers in three of their four Smash appearances, with Brawl Ganondorf and Smash 4 Zelda each being considered the worst character in their respective games at one point or another, much like Kirby in Melee as mentioned in Kirby's own video. Between eight total appearances between two characters, only Melee Ganondorf and Ultimate Zelda have ever been seen as high as mid-tier, with Ganondorf being entirely outclassed by Captain Falcon at Melee's top level anyways and Zelda's overall tournament success being somewhat dependent on buffs from patches.

The split between MockRock and MockRockTalk has always confused me a little because the latter has never felt like it compromises on quality, the MockRockTalk videos are still some of the most thought-out videos I watch in the Smash space on RU-vid and kinda feel like the split has restricted you to lower viewership/income that was never needed when it all could've stayed in one place. But I trust you've got a plan with the Signature Moves series concluding and I'll look forward to whatever's next on either channel

One thing I've always found weird with Smash's Screw Attack is how it only goes straight up. In the 2D games, Screw Attack is done out of a diagonal jump meaning you will almost always be going forward with it. Meanwhile in Smash you get almost no horizontal movement from it (besides that one custom move).
@jobot0114
@jobot0114 Год назад
Considering the Screw Attack also appears as one of the better items in Super Smash Bros as well, I'm curious as to why it wasn't even touched on in this video
@MrMockRock
@MrMockRock Год назад
I considered this, but ultimately decided against it because this video is about Samus; the Screw Attack is _her_ signature move, not Mario's, Villager's, etc. I also didn't touch on King Dedede's Inhale in the Kirby episode, for example, and while I did use tournament footage of Dark Samus since it's functionally the same thing, I didn't discuss the fact that Dark Samus shouldn't actually have the Screw Attack in the Design section. This is the first episode (and last episode haha) where I had to make that call for an item, but I've always tried to contain the analysis to the character the move is a signature of.

@researchinbreeder
@researchinbreeder Год назад
@@littlebadassgaming it's more faithful to how it appears in 2d due to how it's initiated, and on Samus specifically her physics and kit allow her to abuse it better than most characters. It's technically less necessary by virtue of not being a movement tool in itself, but it leads to nasty combos that can usually end stocks. So it's literally the exact same comparison as 2d screw attack vs Prime screw attack (Prime's being Up-B in this case)

I remember you’ve mentioned before how you think Samus in Smash needs a fundamental rework (which I definitely agree with) and I wonder if it would be possible to move the screw attack from up special to actually being part of her jumps? It’d probably need some kind of resource management to unlock it, though…

I like the analysis of design for smash bros and platform fighters in general interesting on this channel. like the patreon polls you do that lead to perils of playing and designing videos. or even something like the design of a character purely for it's gameplay. but analyzing a character and defining their playstyle (bruiser, heavywight, zoner, swordy, ect...). then how well they work for the one or many playstyles they utilize pros and cons. finally what they do that's new to their genre and a ranking in terms of overall design and fun value. I know this probably won't be used but I think it could be an interesting style of video. and this kind of content I would love to see.
@saxeladude
@saxeladude Год назад
I realize it's almost like relax alax know your moves series which I miss but I intended for it to be more focused gameplay execution more than anything else. meaning how well the mechanics and characters stand up compared to the game design of smash or which ever fighting game is mentioned. also this would be perfect for the base characters in rivals of aether and cover runes in that game too.

As I said before, ‘tis a shame such an interesting and detailed series has to come to and like this but I completely understand that the time-effort-profitability ratio doesn’t make it worth it. I will however say I enjoyed learning about the screw attack in all its context and how that all ties back into Smash since I’ve been using Samus since Melee so learning more about this ability through your typical polish and well considered style was very good, as it was for all the other moves you covered.
@WaveOfDestiny
@WaveOfDestiny Год назад
I wish screw attack in the prime series could either deal more damage compensating for the fact that it's clunky and difficult to aim and too slow for moving opponents, or be easier to use with more turning speed and little to no animation lock when you come out of it. It could have saved Prime 2 from boring repetitive fights but it just kinda stops when hitting an opponent and does barely anything.

@skyslasher2297
@skyslasher2297 Год назад
14:58 I think that this design decision is perfectly reasonable since the speed and movement of platform fighters means its significantly easier to get in on a character so these kinds of quick close quarter keep away moves allow the archetype to function since their disadvantage states are poor. Its this same reason why projectile Zoners are nonexistent in games like Tekken and Soul Caliber 3D fighters allow all the characters to easily side step projectiles so zoning is almost nonexistent.
