Should YOU play Smash Ultimate ONLINE? 

Its just so annoying when it truly feels like you cant control your character in the way you want to. Plus the lag causes you to miss time your shield inputs and spacing. You know you can beat the person but the game is not letting you

“Get a damn LAN adapter” Tell Nintendo to release their damn consoles with an Ethernet port. There’s no reason the dock shouldn’t have one

Hey guys! Please give me feedback on the video. If you enjoyed this content which is different from tutorials or just gameplay let me know and I can cover other topics in the game/community in a rant format!

Worst experience was me as rob vs a ridley on bi-plane map who could camp on the lower platform and i could not approach with any move to take his stock. He took my first stock and then camped for the remainder of the 7min match

Personally, I find offline much better than online because it just feels more like smash to me

Somehow Smash 3ds Online was the best online Smash has ever had.

for a long time now i thought that my 30+ years honed gamer skills, were failing on me because sometimes i press a button, or flick the stick. and nothing happens.

SSBU online is straight trash. I love SSB but the online connectivity issues kills the multiplayer for me. Unfortunate

Different environments call for different sets of skills. I think it's analogous to playing sports in different altitudes.

To kill time and have fun? Absolutely. To accurately gauge your skill, not in a million years.

Online play is like back in the day when your friend gave you the broken controller. You’re playing 3 times harder just to keep up.

Holy shit, I'm so happy to see Mewtwo gameplay from you! Wish it wasn't such a short tourney but I'll take what I can get. Good vid as always dude

I remember being kirby on 3ds and dominating

great video, and i subbed, but just a side question- (what is that song in the first 13 seconds of the video? i kinda like it)

YES. Everyone needs to get a LAN adapter. Please.

Will you be making more Elite Smash videos? We haven’t had those in a while

Is it worth getting nimtemdo online for this game? Are there offline modes which can still be enjoyed?

I ended up dropping my main pt... offline I can get my combos off with squirtle and punish whiffs but online squirtle feels like trash. Now I play samus who I feel more comfortable with online

I wish I could go to smash events. I want to see if I stand a chance offline with the pros as a WFT main.

What's the name of the music in the background?

Sheik high tier online ?? true combo are really hard

Best wifi was brawl and 3ds was a close second

No

This game isn’t even bad if u have good internet lmao

Play Byleth elite smash

First! Lol finally!

Something that frustrates me is that some characters become so damn difficult on wifi. Like shotos are harder online because parrying is harder. I find sheik and meta knight harder to play too

My most frustrating experience on wifi? Dealing with people spamming Charizard's Flare Blitz.

Maybe it's just Elite Smash but I get absolutely tilted playing online. I can't control my character like I want and I swear my brain goes into dummy mode. Then so many players do one match and just leave.

I stopped playing smash 4 (and later ultimate) when i realized i will never be able to play online without it feeling like absolute garbage. Watching you kids play "wi-fi" in 10+ frames of lag saying "it's not that bad" is so depressing to me.

The weird thing is, I'd put money on 80% of the people in the comments saying stuff like "Online means nothing" and "Elite Smash doesn't gauge real skill!" have never been to an offline event and are trying to cushion their egos taking so many Ls

This doesn't seem to be a problem for games such as Mario Kart or Luigi's Mansion, but because this is a fighting game (because that's what it is, shut up) this was bound to happen.

For glory was the closest to getting good online because of the features, the online was always bad...

The small town example applies to me except, the tourneys here don’t even happen in my state cause it’s just a small village so I’ve been a WiFi warrior since sm4sh and this is the only way I have to play offline

Yes please do guide on how to beat ness, sonic, lucas.And all those other spammy character

I've had the ethernet adapter since Smash 4, and it never seemed to do anything, so I stopped using it since It's a pain to have hooked up. I wish that Nintendo would fix their online, because it is really bad, to the point that I don't even enjoy playing online and had to stop playing my favorite game.

I like the game but dude this garbage Nintendo Online just make me dont want to play for weeks.

Offline is a whole different vibe , once you enter the zone, start learning and growing, it becomes addicting Fuck wifi (; I play wifi all day tho );

Basically ultimate is already a laggy-ass game and online exasperates the problem.

Comparing Smash’s online to other fighting games is like comparing a campfire to a star. SFV’s online is an exception

I was just playing online untill I got kicked off for 44 minutes because the match was too laggy.

Imagine being a WiFi warrior in brawl..that must have been a pain

Even though we are in quarantine I never get tired of the game infact I was playing one of my friends in smash ultimate and it felt so good because I’m used to play him at work but now my work is unavailable right now. When I’m at work I help people in a lot of ways, especially helping people with video games if their interested in video games, because some people have bad hand coordination, me especially so video games helps me in a lot of ways but getting back to what your saying bro, although I play people right now on WiFi I play smash bros ultimate locally. Although I never been to a tournament

JTails my man, keep these videos coming! You’re keeping me sane! 😂

What nobody realized is that "Ultimate" in the title stands for the lag only

Don't make your wifi worse by using a regular television with its own input lag. I just switched from my smart tv (25ms latency) to my gaming monitor (5ms latency) and it makes a world of difference online.

Horrid online aside, I love that sad ass brawl Mario in the thumbnail lmao

My worst experiences were with sonic and I not got 10% on him and same thing with a duck hunt player too 😭

I main Isabelle and right now i can't even get to Elite smash. I took a longer break and now you need to win a lot to get to Elite smash. After i win some games i que against the laggiest people and it's very frustrating. They spam moves and there's nothing i can do because of the 1-2 seconds input lag. I just wish online was better. After all we pay for it now but nothing changed

How do you practice offline if you don't have anyone to play against? Cpu and practicing combos?

Lag is every gamers worst enemy

i remember that stream with the jv4

The mmbn theme playing. I miss that series!

4:35 That sound.......it made my left index twitch o.o

Tell the dweebs to stop downloading porn while they're playing

Do you think that you still learn some gameplay things FROM playing wifi that a player can carry into offline?

I find wifi-smash (or online in general that is,) is just not as strategically deep of a game. Most of the finesse of a character or a matchup gets lost in the lag imo. I agree however, that it is a necessary evil to improve in the game as a competitive player.

I have an idea! Can you enter online tournaments and try to win? If you do well there, it would be nice to see you playing offline once it is possible. Maybe use this as a chance to come back? Anyway, anti character guides interest me a lot. And I have a question: why do some of your guides show really simple stuff, like cloud up b out of shield as a top 5 things to do, even though you are really good (I have seen some crazy Smash 4 stuff from you)? I expected less beginner stuff from a super pro.

The whole reason it’s an issue is because every match is slightly different and connections can vary wildly, so the combos you had down the game before, suddenly have a slightly different latency and boom, I drop it.

Rollback net code largely resolves the conflict between online and offline skill sets.

Maybe you should try pointing out that with 110 k subscriber, if every one gave 1$ every *_year,_* you would have a 110k salary. This reminds me that i plan to donate quite a bit of money to all the people i'm subbed when i can finally afford it. You're on the list, but i don't know how long it will take me, sorry.

The gsp system is discouraging, and the way Nintendo made online nerfs so many characters

I honestly think online nerfs Link

Nice video jtails

no you shouldn't

I agree with everything you said in this video.

Great video, I agree wholeheartedly!

rob hela carried online

No

I loved this video :)

I made it in the video!! 😂

Good takes. Love you

give this man a dollar yall hes stahvin

could u do videos teaching us how to counter a certain character per video?

Also Jtails i love your content. Nother better on smash anywhere else. Question how much time do you spend in training mode? I personally don't do it as often as i should because smash just becomes boring

Man, as a zelda main that zelda was frustsating to watch ouch

That first Zelda match was atrocious to watch

Let's storm Nintendo and force them to change

If I want to play Smash Bros online yes

i agree

Yes, playing online is bad, but don't blame developers so much. I am a game dev and web dev and it pains me to say, there is really only so much a dev can do. You can make the most responsive game with great online management, but there are tradeoffs. If you want to fight online globally, then there is going to be delay, even with the best connections ever, because that is how the internet works, there is delay. If you want the fastest connection with no frames of delay (which is unrealistic) you'd have to fight practically locally anyways. I think nintendo servers are most likely not the issue, just the distance and varying speeds of everyone's connections. I mean, if you force everyone to play on the best ethernet available, a small % of people will be able to play, and the others will have to wait a really long time in queues, only to have slightly more responsive gameplay. Anyway, rant over, I liked your video.

It sucks.Smash 4 wifi was better
