Most of the new comments are basically “I came here from Leffen, so that means that I’m gonna be an asshole to show off the fact that I’m a Leffen fan. I also can’t play the game either, but that’s not important”

Fact: Incineroar's Neutral Special can break shield if most of the hits connect (especially the 1st, without that it won't)

5:43 "But also, don't always play around grab the same way." Pit: "I NEVER LEARNED-"

24:57 *"You're on your're own from here.."* Clearly, Mii fighters are top tier cause they can change up their moveset anytime they want.

Me, a Ganon main: I wonder what he has to say about my main? “Do not engage, try to cheese.” Oh. Thanks.

How to fight Palutena and Ike:... *Don't get naired*

"Dr. Mario" "He's mostly Mario but with a few differences, mostly worse differences" It hurts because its true :(

How to fight joker: Tell him to go to sleep

Here's some tips I have: - Pretty obvious, but don't shield Bowser Bomb. It breaks full shields - Don't get grabbed by Wolf at 50-60% on ledge as down-throw to Wolf Flash is true and sweetspots if not DI'd properly - Simillar to what BananaBoy said, don't pressure Luigi's shield if the move isn't safe, as if he parries it or just blocks it, he'll up-B you - Don't shield Dedede's f-smash as when sweetspotted, it can destroy full shields. The same applies to fully charged Jet Hammer - When Incineroar has Revenge, DO NOT get side-B'd or grabbed, as he can get some insane damage off of it. 75% from a single attack - G&W's Judge has fairly slow start-up so if your reaction time is good, you can shield it. But it's risky since Judge-3 and 9 does massive shield damage - Don't shield Ganon's Volcano Kick as it destroys full shields. It's a pretty decent ledge-trapping option despite how slow it is - Try and parry or avoid DK's Heabutt as it almost destroys full shields - Be aware of down-B to up-smash when fighting DK as it's a true combo and kills early - Respect Greninja's side-B as it kills eariler than you'd expect - Greninja obliterates linear recoveries with his counter as he can direct it downwards for an easy spike - Always shield Green Missile as misfire is super strong. It's easy to punish as well, but watch out if he misfires for recovery, it's nearly unbeatable - Be aware of Snake's up-tilt, it's super strong. Down-throw to up-tilt is one of his best kill setups so try not to get grabbed at higher percents - Don't shield Litlle Mac's KO Punch as it goes through shields - Play super passive when Pac-man has the bell when you're at high percents, as getting hit by it is an easy f-smash. Or bait him into using it - It's not always the safest choice to shield Bowser Jr.'s Clown Car Dash, as if both the dashing hitbox and rollout hitbox hits, it does high shield damage - Shielding Hero is pretty risky. Hatchet Man destroys full shields and he can easily get buffs to destroy a shield in a single tilt-attack - Slap your forehead in agony as Pikachu combos you for 2 days straight. Then rage quit once he takes your stock

This is also a "How not to fight as every character" video guide.

How to beat the Miis: You can’t.

Lol Leffen watched this, his chat is actual garbage

7:37 *PJiggles wants to know your location*

Bananaboy is just pretending he doesnt like Miis, in reality he just doesnt want people to know how to fight them!!!

This does not only teach you how to best certain characters, it also teaches how to mixup your gameplay to be more unpredictable

Another piranha plant note: the side b poison cloud is a projectile that can be deflected seemingly at any time, and a lot of plant players don't notice and take the damage one you deflect it

im seeing a pattern with all of them... "shield, then punish."

**When you realize that this isn't a tutorial on how to fight all 74 of the characters at once**

24:57 From my experience as a Mii gunner main and from fighting miis here's what I can tell you: I usually punish missed techs with dash attacks and charge shots, so jumping or teching denies my go-to free damage. If you get caught in uptilt, jumping away is the safe option since there's a chance I'm fishing for you to challenge it so I can shield and uptilt again. When edgeguarding, don't just stand on the ledge while watching Mii gunner recover, be ready to shield stealthbomb since not alot of characters expect it, and getting hit by it gives Mii gunner a free mean of getting back on stage. There's not alot offensively she can do if you do decide to edgeguard. F-smash has good range, but it can be jumped over easily, and if the whole thing is blocked, is very punishable. up smash doesn't quite reach if it's under someone who's on a platform. Up air can call out people who are being juggled and are trying to use a fast downward attack like Bowser's down special and banjos dair. Nair is slow enough to attack gunner before she can attack you, and back throw only kills at the ledge at very high percentage. Mii swordfighter: all I really know is watch out for tornadoes when you're hanging on the ledge. If you lose invincibility, it can hit you under the ledge and can kill confirm you relatively early. Mii brawler: I honestly don't know anything useful to say about fighting them except don't get suicide killed by his recovery.

Since Min Min has come out, I have some tips- Don't try to outrange her. Unless you're Samus, Mega Man, or one of the Belmonts, it will NOT work, and even if you are, it probably won't. She tends to struggle against fast characters that can close the distance. If you do manage to get close, watch out for a one-two punch from both arms. You can anticipate it and dodge roll to her other side and punish her for it. If she launches you off stage, be mindful of her Ram Ram or Dragon laser. If you're off stage and she jumps above you, either get out of the way or use a fast attack, because she's probably trying to spike you with down air. If you do avoid it, it's pretty much a guaranteed lost stock for her, so most players won't try it, but it's still a possibility that you need to look out for.

this is the perfect strategy against everyone: just hit and win

Ok so ima post every time stamp for you guys so here ya go Mario 1:06 DK 1:37 Link 2:14 Samus 3:00 Yoshi 3:29 Kirby 4:02 Fox 4:28 Pikachu 5:04 Luigi 5:40 Ness 6:11 Falcon 6:43 Jiggs 7:13 Peach 7:38 Bowser 8:00 Ice climbers 8:30 Sheik 9:02 Zelda 9:33 Dr Mario 10:03 Pichu 10:20 Falco 10:51 Marth and Lucina 11:23 Yink 11:50 Ganon 12:15 Mewtwo 12:42 Roy 13:04 Chrom 13:33 G&W: 13:48 Meta knight 14:24 Pit and Darkpit 14:43 ZSS 14:58 Wario 15:28 Snake 15:49 Ike 16:36 Pkmn trainer 17:02 Squirtle 17:11 Ivy 17:38 Charizard 18:11 Diddy 18:27 Lucas 18:51 Sonic 19:10 King ddd 19:36 Olimar 20:01 Lucario 20:23 Rob 20:45 TINK 21:16 Wolf 21:27 Village 21:49 Mega man 22:21 Wii fit 22:50 Rosalina 23:17 Little Mac 23:56 Greninja 24:30 Mii 24:57 Palutena 25:00 PAC man 25:32 Robin 25:58 Shulk 26:25 Bwrs jr 26:53 Duck hunt 27:23 Ryu 27:48 Ken 28:23 Cloud 28:31 Corrin 29:01 Bayo 29:21 Inkling 29:53 Ridley 30:23 Simon/richter 30:55 K Rool 31:32 Isabelle 32:09 Incineroar 32:23 PP 32:55 Joker 33:18 Hero 34:02 Banjo and Kazooie 34:27 Terry 34:51 Nice

5:44 when you do the opposite of what the guide tells you Pit: *I NEVER LEARN*

This is an amazing guide. You don't overwhelm people with information, and you were spot on with the general details for the characters that I did know. This video deserves more views

This video was very helpful but it would be much better with more detail. I know this video probably took ages to finish but if you put more detail it would have provided much more information and could possibly make the match ups much easier. Another thing you could’ve done is a 10-12 minute series covering a character for each character and explaining how to deal with them. Just wanted to show how it could have been much more useful but it makes sense if you didn’t have the time to do that stuff I listed.

damn, Ludwig's short jokes are even here. He must be short then.

Invincibility frames on rest are hilarious sometimes. One time I was playing Jiggs against my friend who was playing Hero, and I won the game because I used rest's invincibility to flex on my friend when he tried kamikaze

A noté on the Pit/Dark Pit matchup: Dark Pit’s arrows allow for him to play much more campy than regular Pit because of their increased knockback

“Playing a good Game and watch for the first time often feels like a spaz attack” good to know my plan is working lol

8:22 as a bowser main, he has the longest ledge get up attack in the game by a long shot. It covers almost a quarter of the stage. So, when you’re ledgetrapping him, make sure to do it at a safe distance so he doesn’t get free stage control. This is a huge part of the MU and I’ve won multiple sets off of people not being careful when ledge trapping me. Also, with Ryu, watch out for Shakunetsu, it’s an insane neutral tool and he really likes mashing it to guard his recovery.

3:23 "Oh, and parry the missiles, they do plenty of shield damage." DO NOT DO THIS!!!!!!! Please. One of the easiest Samus combos is just super missile to charge shot. So many people will parry the missile without thinking, then immediately get hit by the giant ball of death right behind them. We look for this. I look for this. I lose to this regularly. Don't parry super missile. Bad banana.

I have to personally thank you a Lot Bananaboy. Cause this vídeo helps me a Lot to have an Idea on what to expect on neutral over unknown matchups tournament matches. Thanks Giant!!❤️

came here from the leffen video. Thanks for your content man its cool.

Lol when you said that Jigglypuff's rollout was the best move in the game I died

Robin main here, the aerials are extremely true. Do watch out for down smash and F smash as well, they have lingering hitboxes that will two frame you. For covering getups, the more advanced of us know to utilize falling arcfire, essentially making enemies on ledge do an option asap. My go to option is usually a falling arcfire, then charge thunder on the spot, or stay between your get up and your roll and shield. If you roll, a down smash will get you, if you jump or recover up high then aerials, if you neutral get up a jab does the trick and if you get up attack I shield then punish with roll to grab or just a grab. Also, angling elwind is a thing so careful when ledge guarding no matter which angle you're coming from. Hope this helps! :)

I really love the different approach on your new guide

Wow... So impressive man lol Thank you for all of the time, hard work, and complete editing monotony that I'm sure you had to endure to create this video!

For those looking for advice on how to fight Mii Gunner: -They will almost always have Charge Shot, so the same stuff applies as with Samus. -Watch out for nair, it's relatively fast and covers all around Gunner, and can sometimes setup into other moves. -Expect bomb drop, and try to move around it when recovering. -Don't let the huge range on her up air and fsmash catch you off guard. Against up air, dodge away if you see her going for it. Against fsmash, hold shield or try to avoid it altogether. I'm not a super competitive player, but I hope this advice helps nonetheless.

How to beat Hero: Step 1) strengthen your faith in Lord Sakurai Step 2) Pray

As a Lucas Main I can Say that I do not Camp. Instead, I head Straight into the Action with my Air Attacks. And, I do Spam Pk Freeze, but I also Spam Down Smash.

At 5:57 i think. "Dr. sues lets go" best quote I've heard so far this year. Besides "at the end of everything, hold on to anything" of course if you know what i mean.

How to actually fight mii brawler: 1. Dont touch their shield, all 3 up bs are amazing oos, plus usmash and nair are great oos 2. Watch out for weak nair into jab, it catches people loads of times 3. Most of his stuff isnt true, so make sure to mix up how you get out, with airdodges and jumps. 4. Dtilt combos into fair, utilt, nair, bair, up air and every up b, and its pretty lagless, so sit in shield and wait for the brawler's next action and punish that 5. Fsmash and dtilt can 2 frame, so mixup your recovery 6. If they are using suplex, dont sit in shield often, they will get a tech chase 7. Take them to town & city, upb 1 kills them first there. Ban battlefield and Yoshi's if you want to not die at 30% to upb 3 8. Space your aerials against them, and cross up their shield, they don't have much to punish people behind them oos 9. Watch out for shotput, it is one of the easiest projectiles to snipe with 10. If for some reason, they are using exploding side kick(the falcon punch one), do not think it has the lag of a falcon punch, it has way less 11. Feint jump is way less scary than zss' flip kick, its slower and doesnt ground. Just watch out for when they press b again whil feint jumping, it sends them miles

"Do not call shulks arts manados" FINALLY SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME

Thank you for the advice on fighting Ridley, I'm a Ridley main and it helped me with dealing with weaknesses~

Watched the whole thing. Really helpful!

And that stereotype is why I always follow my shadow balls with grabs... Wait, that means this channel is actively contributing to increasing my win count 10/10 best smash channel

Here are some more tips when fighting Shulk. *When Shulk is in advantage:* Make sure to mix up your defensive options when being pressured in the corner and when being juggled. If you get too predictable, he can punished almost anything very hard. Respect his f-air, d-air, and ledge drop Airslash when you are off stage. All three have great range. If he uses Jump art when edgeguarding, look for how he goes off stage. If he jumps off the ledge, try recovering very low or very high. If he runs off the ledge, recovering low is usually your best option. Shulk's 2-frame options are limited to landing aerials and d-tilt, the latter of which is very inconsistent. Try baiting him into landing with an aerial by slightly delaying when you grab the ledge. When doing this, however, keep in mind that he can drop off the ledge with a down air. If you do get 2-framed by d-tilt, be prepared for a double jump f-air. *In neutral:* Don't even try to punish his spaced aerials. He'll usually follow up with d-tilt, f-tilt, or even an f-smash. Speaking of f smash, always try to punish it. Even if he hit your shield from a distance, it's very easy to punish. Dash attack on Shield is safer than you might think. Be careful when trying to punish it. If you get hit by a neutral air, di away is usually your best option. Contesting Speed art is normally not a good idea. It's better to wait it out, especially if platforms are in play. If he misspaces an aerial, you can try shield grabbing him. This works for most areas, except n-air in some cases. *When Shulk is in disadvantage:* Bait and wait. Bait out Arts and wait, bait out whiffs and wait, bait out airdodges and wait. When edgeguarding him, keep in mind that his up-B does not go very far horizontally, so he'll normally need to jump inwards. When preparing to ledge trap him, keep in mind that his up the can hit past the ledge. The best way to counter this is by jumping and spiking him. Many Shulk players will jump in with a f-air to catch you off-guard. Either Shield it, or jump and punish it. When Shield pressuring him, be wary of his up-B. It's not the fastest oos option, but it has a ton of range, so spacing with laggy aerials will not work. This also means he does a decent job dealing with cross ups. That's about all I can think of for now.

I felt so validated by your input on Mii fighters thank you

Great video my dude

Only ogs will remember banana speaking over the smash music

I loved how Link goes: Be careful of: ALL HIS STUFF. :D

Great vid man funny as well 👍🏻

i discovered you about a week ago and i feel like im already getting better. now imagine what i could do if i played on the tv and stoped using joycons

How to beat joker: "STOP TRYING TO REFLECT GUN IT DOESNT WORK AND UR TAKING FREE DAMAGE"

How to beat little mac: Just do it lmao

Thank you Banana Boy, you really helped me with trying to be a better player! Thank you Banana Boy!

"Approaching BAIRs can be dealt with by shielding." Why is that funny

Respect the plant: Pots are males, pipes are females

Jigglypuff rollout: Can be turned around multiple times. Be wary of us baiting your counter with it then reversing rollout, reversing rollout again, and hitting you in your counter's endlag. Also be wary of us going through your shield, reversing, then hitting your shield again from the other side. It's probably worth going against a CPU puff in training mode to figure out if any of your main's moves beat rollout as well. For example Lucina's f smash.

Thank u for making this video it helps a lot !

Thank you for making this!

"Oh no, he didn't do terry correctly." *smiles*

When you scroll down the description and find a surprise "happy holidays" Happy holidays, Banana Boy 🍌

Great video man

"Ice Climbers Side B has lots of priority" Nice joke, lol.

Bananaboy: how to fight every character Nintendo today at the game awards probably: there is another Edit:Damnit Nintendo

I have my first tourny today and this is very helpful! Thanks

Thank you so much. Im going to watch this video every day

BannaBoySSB: Shield against basically every character Me, a Greninja main: Uh oh

Piranha plant: ptooie Kirby: so it's the same type of stand as star platinum.

Your videos are so good I’m a total noob at smash ultimate is my first game and I got it like 3 months ago but I can’t help but watch these videos.

To those who actually need help against the Pits: Don’t fight them off stage, they will win with 4 jumps and a great side b Punish their down b because they will use it for a midair shield. It has a good amount of end lag and doesn’t block above Recover higher than normal because they will either spike you below or shoot you to death if you recover sideways They will use down tilt to aerials a lot

Only came here for the Mii Fighters section because I main the funny skeleton man but 24:57 :|

As a Luigi main, im surprised he didnt talk about his dash attack, also my friend is a mewtwo main and I can relate to his shadow ball tô dash.

I’ve had this game for like a month... holy cow I have so much to learn

This is a 36 minutes video and there is not a single ad, I’m subscribing.

(since I'm a dedede main) be wary of dedede's dash attack which hits below ledge and gordo setups at ledge

I'd say that whenever I make a good decision, it's a misclick

I can respect the amount of work that was put into this video.

Great video!

22:50 another thing about wii fit: pressure the front of her shield. Back air is really her only viable option out of shield.
