I have seen some confusion, so I would like a minute to clarify how this video correlates with the channel ending. It is not our final video being posted, we still have several that have been animated and are close to being able to be posted. That said, it is likely our last video with an analysis, so it IS the last Smash Bracket video as you know it, unless something changes. I hope you all enjoy this video and those to come until we have posted our backlog! _ I also want to give a massive shout-out to Tretoonzz on our team, who edited this video, animated in it, and all together helped everything come together. This would not have been possible without their help.
@@EthanEtongue Death Battle already proved its likely Mario. Even with the buffs Sonic got thanks to Frontiers, it also showed that Super Sonic has limits to how “invincible” Super Sonic is. And Mario can probably pierce it as well.
@@EthanEtongue What the hell are you talking about? They used feats from games and all closely tied media for both of them. If you’re upset because they didn’t use Archie comics or Paper Mario, it’s because those are too drastically different to be considered the same character.
I'm sorry, but what's the point of the series without the analysis? Moreover, while other series have done analyses as well, they often come to different conclusions due to differing methodologies or just interpretations. And then there's the fact that the character(s) I've really been waiting for have _never_ appeared on any other similar channel, and I'm really interested in seeing how she/they would be described in a format like this. The fact that the bracket was established ahead of time means I could be confident that they/she would eventually show up, but now that's being called into question. Edit: Ok, I looked at the already completed animations. Guess I won't be seeing them in a crossover comparison after all, with _or_ without analysis. Not even my _second_ most anticipated fight made the cut. Guess that's what I get for being a fan of a more niche series.
It was an honor to Edit the final Analysis for Smash Bracket. I poured my heart and soul into it, making sure it was fun, engaging, and informative. I haven’t done a massive edit like this before, so it was awesome to have Bracket give me the opportunity! I hope you enjoyed the gags, information, and animated InkThinks!
@@Spritefightman The phrase "Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened" conveys the idea that finding joy in the memories and moments we've shared is a more constructive and emotionally rewarding response to closure. It implies that cherishing the positive aspects of an experience can leave us with a sense of gratitude and contentment, not that you shouldn’t be allowed to feel sad; it’s just a way to help someone though sad times
13:16 Was not expecting Luigi to be voiced like this. A pleasant surprise. I like how he seems to still be nervous, but in more of a confused 'Can we please stop now?' kind of way, rather than straight up terrified.
Seeing Ink having so much fun with the analysis sections gives me life. The animation is also amazing. The Mony Python bit, Luigi holding plates menacingly, the feasting, the Captain N Simon cameo, smug Luigi. It was beautiful.
Damn they hit us with "Smash Bracket is ending" into immediately posting one of the best voice acted and animated Smash Bracket episodes to date. I really hope Smash Bracket gets revamped or ends up just being a wait and downtime rather than a true "end" in the long run, but in the end it's all about the creator's wellbeing. Hope everything goes well for the whole team moving forward.
I am just now realizing, that this is the last time I will ever hear Ink say, "AND THERE YOU GO!" at the end of every episode. Shit. It's hard to come to the conclusion that this series that means everything to me is ending. It feels like it just started. Part of me wishes that someone else could fill Ink's shoes and continue this fantastical series that his creativity has spawned into existence, but I don't think that could happen feasibly, due to monetary reasons, and mountains of other issues. Something tells me Patron isn't capable of propelling this on its own. This reminds me of how much Ink has done, how hard he has worked, and how many people he has supported through his sheer passion... and, likely empty wallet. Selfless. I'm so very glad that he is on his journey to self-healing. My only real regret is not being able to work with the team. It was my dream to contribute in that way someday. Maybe someday, years from now, someone will be in the position to take up the mantle. It's a fool's dream, of course. Still clinging to SmashBracket subconsciously. I'm certainly in denial. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say but, I guess what I really mean, is thank you for inspiring me. It's been a hell of a ride- and there you go, I'm crying again.
This was a matchup I was hyped for ever since all the matchups were announced and it did not disappoint. As the last traditional Smash Bracket episode it was really great, thank you Ink and the whole Smash Bracket team for cranking out one last banger for us all to enjoy.
Honestly this probably has the best analysis, it has funny jokes and neat editing stuff and it’s entertaining and even the neat little animation. The analysis’ went out with a bang!
I love how much of a stomp this was. Especially since most of the time luigi was just confused and wanted to go home, he wasn’t even trying to hurt Simon (end of battle). Heck, the post fight analysis stated it clearly, the moment luigi goes on the offensive it’s over.
This has been a fun ride. It’s awesome to see one Mario brother taking the W. I’m just hoping the other will join with them in the end of smash bracket Thanks a lot for giving us really good animations to watch and debate about… we’re gonna miss you a lot..
Yeah I'm pretty sure Luigi is going to win this fight. I don't think Simon Belmont has fought anything like the weird shit Luigi deals with on a daily basis. Also it doesn't help that all of Simon's weapons are for killing monsters, and somehow despite everything that Luigi has done in the games he's 100% human.
The analysis section is interesting, because it seems like a massive flip from the original analyses that specifically ignored some of Mario's feats that gave Luigi this easy win. I guess Mario and Luigi are just impossible characters to pin down, and someone is going to get mad no matter what power level you put them on. They're just so inconsistent depending on the game, so you can make the argument for whatever power level you want. For better or worse, you definitely changed your philosophy behind researching these characters as the series moved on. That said, sad to see this channel is ending. I really enjoy the idea behind it and I've had a fun time watching all of these episodes!
Thanks for the deliciously goofy Halloween treat, guys. My favorite gags were Simon literally getting smashed back to the NES era and Luigi complaining about just wanting to go home.
Sadness over this being the last Smash Bracket episode aside; I absolutely love how Luigi just doesn’t give a shit over Simon’s speeches and just wants to go home
I cannot thank you enough mr bracket,you have rivaled death battle in quality and then some. I know that you have a great life ahead of you. I wish I couldn't say goodbye,but you have done enough. Thank you.
If this ghastly spectacle is anything to go off by, the Hero Battle Royale as well as many other remaining goodies in the oven will all be quite the remarkable send-off in the making here! 👏🏽 Much thanks to Ink, Levitation, and many other talented *souls* for the fun ride all the way through and through! And Happy Halloween!!! 🎃👻💀
This series is so fricken good, I love it so much. I still really hope that some dedicated fans or some trustworthy people can maybe contribute and perhaps take the series over, if everyone on the team is okay with that of course. I can understand though if no one is comfortable with the series having new ownership, essentially.
I'm expecting the character that has more media to work with to win the matchup because.... yeah that's pretty much how this goes. lmao Thanks for the fun series guys
I know this is going to be a good fight, can't wait to see if Simon completes his "quest" or if luigi will only see victory in his "dreams". okay, now that the usual joke is done, I just wanted to say to say to the smash bracket team, thank you for all the fun this series was and will be until the end, this series got me excited for versus was a growing fanbase that was really fun to interact with, even got me back into death battle funnily enough. It was a really fun time watching and interacting with these episodes and the other stuff you did, whether the discord, the reddit, or even these jokes I do, so I thank you for all the fun up until I make my final joke for one of these episodes and wish you all well.
The one piece of gear that I think Luigi could’ve near-instantly won with is the Iron Ball and Iron Ball DX hammers. When hitting an opponent with them, there’s a small chance a _solid iron sphere drops from the sky directly on their head._ I get Simon’s tough, but I hope his skull is thick.
Thank you so much Ink! This has been so fun! I can't wait to see the Heroes duke it out, even if were sans your charming voice. I'm glad you're doing what's right. (And peak content as always)
The sheer Castlevania lowballing. We just not gonna mention Dracula just magically creates Castlevania (the castle) and the castle is a universe? And that in this series magic scales to your stats? We not gonna mention the monsters of the castle are stated to be unbound by time? No? Just me? Oh well poor Belmont
At this point I’m still going to watch this video Even if Luigi still loses (sadly) Because I’m gonna miss Smash Bracket 💔 Ink. When I say this I mean it from the bottom of my heart Thank you so much for the content over the years and much love you have given the fans When the time arrives of you quitting RU-vid You will be missed dearly 🙏
Sonic’s world is just a different version of earth. It’s not called Mobius. That’s only in non-canon western continuities. Only saying this because no one else is.
Man. Whoever voiced Simon sounds like he had the time of his life. Death: So you may be wondering why I'm back after Richter killed me a few weeks ago. Turns out that Simon dying here affected the timeline so that future Belmonts, like Richter, were never born. Therefore he wasn't around to kill me. Therefore I, Death, Arbiter of death, declare myself, Death, not dead. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to run a health and safety inspection of Dracula's Castle.
That was easily one of the best episodes in the series which makes it all the more saddening that this is one of the last episodes. Such a bittersweet ending. But nevertheless, I’m just happy we were able to enjoy Smash Bracket while it lasted. Thank you so much for all your hard work, Smash Bracket team. And thank you so much for making the series happen, Ink
Lol I love Luigi just wanted to go home. But thank you Ink for everything. I'm glad you left covering all my Top 10 favorite characters in Smash. G&W, Ness, Wario, Olimar, R.O.B, Lucas, Ice Climbers, Lucario, Villager, and finally... ending it with ma boi Luigi (Yes I know these are kind of cringe characters to play). I hope you take care of yourself in the future and we thank you for all the contributions you have done with analysis, humorous writing, and explanations. Also the Hero Battle Royale I literally cannot wait. I hope Eight takes it home for that one.
You know I predicted smash bracket was going to make Castlevania chars building level but somehow they went even lower than that with being wall level I don't think I ever seen a serious vs where someone unironiaclly puts someone at wall level by smash bracket scaling olimar throwing a rock Pikmin at ritcher one shots him Also they stated ritcher was stronger than any Belmont before him so Simon who one of the first is gonna be put at low wall level or wooden chair level if smash bracket is consistent So yeah easy Luigi dub
Shame we couldn’t go all the way. At the same time though, that’d take way too much dedication and Ink’s a dad. You will be missed when this ends, Ink. (P.S. I can hear the depression in his voice. Idk how, I happen to.)
If you made a video: Who is canonically stronger? Arlon(Kid Icarus) vs Patrice Blazing(Plants vs Zombies) would the events be similar to this, in which Patrice Blazing kills Arlon by absolutely doing nothing. Like how Luigi defeats Simon.
My boy won!!!! :,D Even though I am happy with the verdict, it would have been great for me to see King Boo and Death join forces in the fight and Luigi and Simon join forces to stop them.
