@@EnergyPantsSmash THEY'RE NOT LEMONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE MEGA BUSTER PELLETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS NOT AN "IN A NUTSHELL" VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN WILL PEOPLE STOP THINKING THAT THE THINGS THAT MEGA MAN SHOOTS OUT OF HIS BLASTER ARE YELLOW SOUR FRUITS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Tfw I've been playing Megaman completely wrong this entire time and it's a miracle I've even managed to take stocks off of better players, let alone win any matches. I heard ZeRo go on and on about how Japan thinks Megaman is top tier and they must know some stuff we don't, and wow, is there ever a ton of stuff I didn't know about him. And nobody uses him. I've played over 100 matches online and never once seen a single Megaman or even one in a recent tournament. Suffice to say, thanks for the video, this is super enlightening.
Yup. No one is playing Mega Man. That’s why I’m maining him!! So much fun to be one of the only ones. I’m not extremely good but I’m getting better all the time. You can check out my channel for some of my Mega Dan uploads! ; )
dawg same I love megaman and I'm always surprised how much I whoop ass with him but after this video I'm gona be unstoppable lol ok maybe not unstoppable but definitely good asf
I don't understand why people say Mega Man has gotten worse only for Metal Blade footstool combos being unusable when he definitely has some good tools in this game, sure he may not be as played as much as others, it's only a matter of time before people realize not to sleep on Mega Man, he can still be good for sure, plus the game is still new and we still have yet to unlock his full potential
@@SpeedfreakUK YES! Many don't realize how deadly his uTilt is now that you can do it after a dash or run, especially because of his speed. Once they're at kill percent, you play a little closer range and be mindful for the inevitable miss or read or even reaction. Mega Man has all the close range tools too when you mix in dTilt, also amazing for the same utility as uTilt. Not to mention all the usage his Specials get now.. Mega Man is amazing!
@@ramonM64 You can try Mega's Dtilt + Utilt,it works with just those two at low percents,because if you try this at higher ones,the Utilt won't connect with the Dtilt,plus I don't even recommend using it all that too much,because you're mostly likely gonna land the sourspot of the Utilt...
Another thing u can do to lighter characters is use side b and if they hold block instantly wait for bomb to detonate then use up tilt as they are still blocking to break their shield
This was great I was really helpful because I've plateaued at what I could learn on my own so this will really freshen my gameplay and push my megaman skills further.
I just so happened to search for a Mega Man Ultimate video... and found this within a day of it uploading. Very helpful, I might be a filthy casual who doesn’t even own the game but this will be great for when I play with friends and catch them off guard from what I usually do.
I was actually just thinking of trying to play as Mega Man more. I'm still a pretty casual player, but I can still understand what you're talking about, and I absolutely love that about your video.
Megaman's been my main since Smash 4, but man I've never thought about using the Rush Coil on the top platform of Battlefield to screw with my opponent's spawn invincibility, and that's the map I've been playing the most! Also, I definitely have to practice the mega buster cancels. It sounds like an ideal tech to use especially in close range!
I can't thank you enough for this. i was a megaman secondary in smash 4 because I really liked how he played and how his moveset worked but I never really got a handle on how to play him
Fantastic video man. I was a die hard Mega Man main in Smash 4 but I haven't had much time to lab and adjust to the changes they made to Mega Man in Smash 4. I found myself making a lot of errors by playing him like I would in Smash 4. It was nice to get a quick overview on all the changes with just enough information to keep the video at a good pace and allow people to deep dive into more in depth explanations of certain things if they so choose.
For any of those mega mains out there, when you use lemons you can jump at the last lemon for the knock back if you are close to the opponent’s, it’s very easy to do and it’s a jab lock move
I haven't played since brawl so I'm pretty new and I started playing mega man and I thought he was eh because he didnt really have and jabs or good punches but, I felt he had hidden potential. This vid is extremely helpful thank you
Prob. a little late, but i recommend going rlly deep in edge guarding. His fast air forward/back let him literally deal with any enemy down from the plattform.
Hi! I´ve started using megaman and his very fun in ultimate, I dont know if his much better now or since I played with him on 3Ds, he felt almost impossible to played with, but now doing spikes feel insane
I’ve learned something a his rush strategy after a K.O. Which actually Dosent work on an omega style stage mostly because the opponent is so much farther away from rush that it’s so much easier to avoid him on those kinds of stage setups. if anybody has a solution to this I’d be happy to know. Also the videos in the description are unavailable.
In the videos in the description, they mention a controller setup to use. Tap jump is all personal preference, but for the Pellet cancelling tech, you HAVE to turn A+B smash off and it makes it very easy to set a shoulder button to jump. Hope this helps :]
God bless you for this video. I've been looking for more way to improve my game with megaman but no one has posted anything on him. I resorted to sm4sh tutorials.
I don't think its any faster, but I've gotten into the habit of facing your back to the opponent when holding the metal blade. It makes your opponent very wary of your options, like throwing the metal blade, Z-Dropping it, etc. Kinda like how you would do with Snake's grenade lol
@@ZilZer0 oh, you have to re-grab the blade when you do the front tilt (when doing front tilt when the blade is on the stage you should be able to pick it up at the same frame as front tilt so you can do the move while holding it).
Blu personally I go for the smash attacks on the stick, though it probably would be more efficient to make it tilts so that you don’t accidentally up smash or down smash when you use the slide or mega upper, though you can’t spam lemons using the right stick if it’s set to tilts.
I've never had a reason to use tilt stick on MM, personally. Most characters have a decent, go to tilt in neutral, but MM doesnt really have that (except F-Tilt ofc, but that's also Jab and Nair xD). F-Tilt is very easy to input for me without tilt stick and Up Tilt and Down Tilt are really niche moves and otherwise easy to input. Just personal preference though xD
Facing backwards while you have the metal blade threatens the options of either throwing the Metal Blade or Z-Dropping it. It forces your opponent to play a bit more cautiously because you can do either one at any time :]
Picking up the Metal Blade and using it as an item is actually very useful, because throwing it as an item can let you set up follow-ups that he couldn't with the regular throw. Additionally, you can Z-drop the metal blade on your enemies to apply pressure on block or combo into some kill moves on hit!
Setting the C-stick or right stick to tilts works best for that. You just have to remember to let go of or reset the left stick before you up-tilt so that you actually do the mega upper instead of dash attack.
If you don’t like the tilt cstick option my tip is that instead of Pressing Up And a at the same time press up first for a split second then A, same with forward tilt
I'm watching a video on a character I vowed to never play, gabe no intrest in playing, dont like the character, and there is no one in my school who plays megaman
dont call yourself good or a tactician if you play megaman just know that you're cheap when you spam the lemons and grab the air when you think i'll dodge towards you
Needless to say, mega man has one of the most astonishing movesets in the game for not only tips and tricks but for very useful kill setups and combos as well.
Leaf Shield in Ultimate: *Hurts players, protects against projectiles, does what the name says* Leaf Shield in Megaman 2: *Litterally can only hurt enemies, doesn't affect projectiles, is bad, doesn't do what the name says*
But for metal blade Metal Blade in Megaman 2: Is Litterally the most powerful weapon in the megaman games Metal Blade in my hands in Smash: Litteral definition of uselessness
Yeah, it was underwhelming in 2, but I guess we shouldn't have expected much from it. Can you imagine Captain America going like "Yes, Howard, this steel Vibranium shield looks good and all. But what if you made it out of leaves instead?"
You know that both as a Megaman and Smash fan that the future looks bright for X. Just as Link has variations of his character, X has a lot to offer along with a unique set of potential moves. Looking forward to it someday!
I may add, since I main Megaman too. Instead of Rush Coil, most people I've noticed just drop down, so I stick with the side special, rush coil up as they try to rush me, toss buzz saw down, side special blows up, dive down and your set for a lemon/leaf juggle, then grab throw down and flame sword. It works most of the time, but you're guaranteed at least 10% from the flame activating right after invincibility is gone, unless they evade out of it. Regardless, the invincibility won't give them an advantage anymore.
He showed in the video but didnt say nothing, you Can do a Jab lock with only the lemons, you need to do 2 side tilts and the third One jump to get knock back, then keep with the stick to their direction and do another lemon, and there is a Jab lock 👍
Bro that combo at 6:27 man he said it's tough to do it but when I was watching it I did it in like 5 seconds 😂 but... After that I couldn't do it again...
Thanks for the great video! I absolutely love Megaman but found him difficult to play with. I notice that with a lot of my other friends who've never played Smash before. Most dudes pick Megaman first then think he's not very good. Will try him out more and annoy people with them LEMONS haha
