People often forget about Duck Hunt in Smash Ultimate's competitive scene. Whether it be for his far and few results, lack of player representation, or just the sheer amount of high and top tiers you could be selecting instead. But, that hasn't stopped players like Sekkai Doggo from taking one of Ultimate's quirkiest characters and running away with a first place finish at a SWT Platinum Event. Today, we analyze Duck Hunt and Sekkai Doggo's Top 8 bracket in order to answer the question: Are they good or just... weird?

What's so good about it? I can send it back at you

@Jackington208 15 дней назад

@@StrawHatAura it's amazing for zoning, and applying pressure. If they try to hit it back at you, just press B lol. Look at the game with Bigduckhuntfan(BDHF) vs. Sparg0, Duck Hunt is barely used that Sparg0 didn't know what to do against Can. Resulting in Sparg0 getting 2 stocked twice and losing to BDHF

@StrawHatAura 15 дней назад

@@Jackington208 Sparg0 became a bit of a choke artist. Much like Cosmos, but I'm starting to think that's just a pattern with people playing broken swordies. Duck Hunt can very easily have Can exploited, that's why it's not regarded as a great overall move because it can fuck you over in multiple ways. This notion that hard characters must be good is dumb. A character can be difficult and still not that rewarding, as is the case with most bottom tiers. Duck Hunt is ass, and the proof's in the pudding. Maybe I'm uninformed, but I've never heard anything about a Duck Hunt winning evo or anything

@NolenJacobson 2 года назад

imo Duck Hunt preys on people respecting their zoning too much. Rushing them down is always the answer even if you play a zoner yourself. In pretty much every matchup DH has the worse hitboxes and mobility and they're going to be in tough if you know their setups even half as well as they so.

@NateHicks 2 года назад

extremely true. i don't see many people talk about this but something as simple as falco lazer can shut down duck hunt's zone easily. i used to think he had potential to be really good but he really lacks consistent early kill power. you always need to have the can in a favourable position or else your neutral is already lost. sometimes i look at a character like pac-man and just wonder what duck hunt can do better than him.

@sekaidoggo7610 2 года назад

Duck Hunt has a super good mobility wym. He also has one of the best frame 6 grabs in terms of range and utility, a super disjointed up air, and an absurd conditioner like the can.

@NolenJacobson 2 года назад

@@sekaidoggo7610 What I mean is that DH has a bottom 20 initial dash, a bad SH FF time, and a middling air acceleration and these are imo the three most important movement stats. As for bad hitboxes the problem with a lot of DH's kit is the the duck has a hurt box. Moves like ftilt, dtilt, fair, and bair get outspaced because of this. Duck Hunt's head sticking out past his nair, up smash oos not extending all the way to the ground, and DH's smash attacks in general being a bit inconsistent/subject to SDI also contribute to my opinion.

Played my first and only ever Ultimate tournament before Covid and fought a SoCal dunk hunt monster. I mean apparently they were a monster because after I won with mii swordfighter the other players at the tournament were mad because the duck hunt would weed out a lot of their competition. I was definitely not better than them, mii swordfighter's tornado just destroys all of duck hunt's projectiles on contact.

@serpentmaster1323 2 года назад

That diagram at 12:11 is fascinating. I love it just because it shows how small the slice of smash ultimate that I know well is, and consequently how large the broader commun is. yes I expected palu wolf and peach to be high, and The placements of fox and lucina make sense as well. But I did not at all expect inkling, pichu or megaman to be as high as they are. It just shows how many ultimate events there are around the country and around the world that I don’t follow, or even know the existence of, and it shows how much top Top NA players or simply just names I know like ESAM, stick in my mind that I expect their characters to be higher in usage than they are. It’s also a reminder of just how few people play less popular characters that I make a point to follow, like basemage, jejajeja, and Skyjay.

The character is carried by Can. Not saying that any Duck Hunt players are carried by that move, in fact this character is carried by the players and not the other way around. It's just that Can saves Duck Hunt from being bottom tier. Really bad normals, lackluster aerials, and probably the worst set of smash attacks in the game. Also without Can covering Duck Hunt's recovery, gimping them would be free. Hats off to people who make this character work, especially at top level.

@tobiasterry7194 Год назад

The clay pigeon spawns frame one, he doesnt fully throw it and is able to move out of the animation till frame 17 or something like that. For example, if you grab me on the same frame i start side b, the clay pigeon still flys toward you which can knock you out of your grab animation. Its more useful on the ground as a combo or grab breaking tool than in the air but thats where can comes into play as a panic option instead
