Mute has been so good at just talking on his RU-vid, so glad to see him on a podcast I know marss said a podcast with mute and pink would be great cause pink would just instigate so I'd love to see him again
I really like the analysis of the difference between Mexico and Japan’s playstyles in this episode. The idea that Japan thinks of winning in smash by playing optimally while Mexico thinks of winning by directly outplaying and punishing their opponent is really insightful and makes a lot of sense when thinking about how the different regions play. It’s the difference between I want to play in the best way possible and I want to outplay you specifically
There have been very extensive studies done on mental visualization and how it can supplement (not replace) actual practice for anything. There are caveats like realism but repitition is central to both forms of training. I listened to a 3hr podcast by Dr. Huberman on the subject which I think people might enjoy. Its called "Science-Based Mental Training and Visualization for Improved Learning"
While it's true that nobody is as consistent as MkLeo was pre-quarantine, あcola does make grands almost every time. In the last six months, his lowest placements have been 7th at Genesis 9 and 3rd at Maesuma TOP 11. Sparg0's lowest placements in the same time frame have been 5th at Genesis 9, 3rd at Collision 2023, 13th at Summit 6, and 9th at Crown the Third. Sparg0 has better wins than あcola, but he also has worse losses.
Muteace and Tweek are the bromance I didn't know I needed. In all seriousness, great episode! It's cool to hear the unique insights from different top players. Mute certainly has a lot of great insights, and entertaining delivery.
Wavedash reminded me a question I always had as to why Leo ever stopped playing Corrin cause he is so good lmao. Also love to see Muteace on the show, one of my favourite players atm, love listening to this guy
@@Spyder-MarthTbf, before that Leo had literally NEVER lost to Maister in tournament. Over like 20 sets. He is supremely confident in that player mu. It wasn’t that he lost to GnW with a sword character; it was that he lost to Maister *at all* (usually he beats Maister with any char). So I can see how that would be a blow to how good Corrin is in his eyes.
Have mute back on please. Seeing him and charles be the strongest minds in the game, as well as Tweek and him bonding is endearing. Also spitting mad facts about steve. People have been chalking the matchup up to "just rush him down", but the steves have evolved past that. Great to see him.
I hear term like “spacies” a lot for certain characters, what does that mean?? Like a “zoner” makes sense since they mainly used ranged combat in their toolkit to fight.
Y’all should do an updated Neutral episode. It’s been a few years and the game and overall meta has obviously seen a lot of change. Maybe bring on someone like Sonix or Sisqui, who play very reserved compared to most people. I think that would make for a really interesting conversation.
I always thought that MKLeo only picked up Corrin because they are the best Sword Fighter that does well vs Min Min. After losing to Proto in Double Down as Corrin, I realized that he just dropped the character & never cared about them again. Its nice to see him play them again.
Muteace NEEDS to be in the development of Smash Bros Infinite he's gonna make the game perfectly balanced or in any case it's completely okay for some characters to be better than others but his technical knowledge of the game is so great he will find a way to make every characters strengths truly stand out to the point of making them viable in tournament
I'm so glad these guys talked about Corrin. Such an underrated character. I'm still surprised people think she is low mid tier even after runs made by Neo, Shadic, and of course Leo. Anyhow, I am very happy to see MuteAce in this podcast! I love this dude.
Corrin's air moves were not double damage buffed, they got like a 1% buff in damage. Mute grossly overrated her buffs, that's why you don't remember these buffs Tweek. And her up special was buffed during 4.0 which was very early on in the meta, and people were saying she was horrible waaaay past that patch.
Imagine being a Steve player watching this and seeing these popular and beloved top players constantly imply that everyone is always making fun of you behind your back and don't respect you as a player when you're not listening 😂😂😂
