Mario is the first Smash Bros. character, yet his moveset design and references have stayed almost the same for decades! Today, we return to Know Your Moves to look at Super Mario's not so super moveset to uncover why his lackluster design is actually brilliant.

I know this was out of left field, but yes Know Your Moves is back and I'm excited to be working on it again. I'll be uploading an update video in the coming day just to sort of explain why I decided now and what the rest of the channel will look like going forward . I was going to do an Alax Direct but figured you'd rather see the video sooner. So yeah, look forward to that!

@pyrrhickong
@pyrrhickong 2 года назад
So I know a common point is "Mario is the Ryu of Smash Bros". He's got the uppercut, the fireball, the spinny movement move - same three specials every shoto's supposed to have. But what I really love about Mario is how he's a Ryu designed specifically around Smash Bros. His fireball travels around the same speed as the hadoken rather than as fast as his games, but it still obeys gravity, thus giving it a better interaction with platforms. His Super Jump Punch is made primarily to recover, but still works as that out of guard/wake up option that a shoryu would. The way that Mario moves around platforms and extends his combo game with them - vertically, specifically - fits him. He's the platforming guy. You gonna mess with him on platforms? What are you, nuts? As much as Mario is an introduction to Smash, I also find him an adaptation of both fighting games into Smash and Mario platforming into Smash. And that's a LOT to juggle, super elegantly, with just 64 as a base! As simple as it is, I feel like Mario is one of the most intelligently designed characters in how he interacts with the game of Smash Bros. But you right fludd is still butts.
@PFEANYCS
@PFEANYCS 2 года назад
Wouldn’t it be cool if you could change the way fludd behaves? Maybe with like Mario’s taunts or something? Like up taunt gives you rocket nozzle to shoot you upwards at a very high distance if fully charged, down taunt gives you hover nozzle as a way to get back on the stage and maybe gimp opponents, and side taunt gives you that dash nozzle that lets you basically do banjo-kazooie side special when fully charged. And then shield + b could give you the regular nozzle again. I think that’d make fludd a super cool part of Mario’s kit.

I’m really surprised Ryu wasn’t mentioned even once. Everything you said about Mario being the ancestor of every other character in Smash applies to Ryu in fighting games as well. Plus the fact that both characters usually tend to be the average baseline for the cast, be a Jack of all trades but master of none, and even both having a fireball, uppercut, and a horizontal moving spin move.

@arkdetective
@arkdetective 2 года назад
Personally, I see Mario as the Ryu of smash bros. He's meant to be the character who teaches a new player how smash works at a basic level. And Dr. Mario is meant to be the evil Ryu and/or Akuma of the game, as in he hits harder, has some different properties to his moves, some different moves when it comes to 3ds onward, but is a glass cannon when it comes to health, since he falls faster because of his weight clas and has a harder time getting back to the stage than both Mario and Luigi after getting knocked off stage in the many ways smash works when it comes to health. Also, Luigi is Ken, who has some similar moves, is faster, has a handful of original moves and more explosive power in said moves when used properly, but is easily knocked out when it comes to weight in the case of smash, but is also compensated for said weight class with a way better recovery for when he is knocked off stage versus both Mario versions. All in all, they are the triangle from which people can expand to trying out other characters of smash with original Mario as the starting point.
@rotciv557
@rotciv557 2 года назад
Great write up, but I would argue Luigi and Dr. Mario always being characters you need to unlock preclude them from being part of the "Intro Smash characters" group, the other character that I would say is the best counterpart to Mario in this regard is Kirby. Kirby plays completely different from Mario, but his origin also being a Platformer lends to him a basic familiarity with the sort of movements required in Smash. His focus being on great recovery (without needing to rely on specific button and joystick toggles which can easily trip up very young or very new players while in the heat of the fighting) and speedy attacks lends him a very approachable fighting style that many newbies often end up relying on for their first few hours playing any of the games in the series. Kirby also has the newbie favored advantage of being quite possibly the most approachable fighter in the entire series in terms of visual design. While Mario has far superior name recognition, most people who boot up the game that happen to take note of Kirby's round, pink frame will always feel comfortable with him no matter how familiar they may be with videogames as a whole. In essence, Mario is the character that people who are versed in gaming but not Smash Bros can easily get behind and get pretty decent at using him thanks to his solid and evenly measured moveset and internals, whereas Kirby is a character that most people in general no matter wants or experiences can feel comfortable with using and potentially even excel with thanks to his great recovery, fast strikes and gimmicky specials.

The thing is about Mario and Kirby in Smash Bros. is that it makes most sense for them to have simple movesets that don't properly showcase the wide plethora of things they have in their games. This is why characters like Toad, Gooey, and Helper2Hero (A character, probably Bandana Waddle Dee, who commands all of the enemies turned helpers in the Kirby franchise) are legitimately good picks.

Might be a little late to the party, but I’m glad you brought back the series. Here is a little fun fact, Mario’s Forward Smash is based off his fire ability in the Mario and Luigi series, it made its first appearance in Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga for the GBA. Where he gains the ability of Pyrokinesis, while Luigi gets the power of Thor. One of Mario specials in the game is where he charges up his hand with and shoots an explosive blast of fire from his palm, like in smash. If he fails he burns himself and does little damage, if he succeeds he does a lot of damage and doesn’t hurt himself, is only difference in the move set from smash.

Mario is designed to be an easy to learn character like in his games, so his moveset in Smash reflects this.

11:25 The explosion thingy is a reference to the first title of the Mario and Luigi series, Superstar Saga, Where Mario has the ability to summon fire from his hand in a controlled fireball. Luigi had something similar except it was lightening.

@nimble3742 2 года назад
It honestly surprises me how people forget Mario had "Fire" as a special attack in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. I like to think that's where one or two fire moves get their inspiration from, despite Luigi not having any "Thunder" attacks.

From watching the first episode of Know Your Moves, I remember immediately searching for a Mario episode and not finding one. All these years, I have been CRAVING an episode trying to explain the significance of Mario's seemingly bland moveset and, at last, this video comes out!! YES! The analysis in this video really hits the nail on the head with him!

Although I know his fireball move was most likely based on the fire flower. I always just thought his fire-based moves was a reference to when he learned pyrokinesis in Mario and Luigi superstar sage.

Most people don't realize his Smash idle pose is a reference to the first SMB1 where he has the same pose: Head looking to the right being perfectly perpendicular to his body which faces the front were he's perfectly simetry. Also with slightly bended knees. He's just more energetic in Smash.

I saw a redesign of Mario’s smash move-set on tumblr like having the Side Special be a Shell Kick, Down Air be a stomp, Dash Attack be the dive and the long jump, etc. You know I think a better Final Smash could be a double reference. Basically a cinematic final smash that has Mario capture a T-Rex and knock the opponent into a warp cannon from NSMB.

(7:20) It would have been amazing if Mario said "so long [character name]!" with his throw. At least when it's a confirmed KO. Would mean a lot of recordings, including saying the names in all the languages (since I don't think he's dubbed), but it would still be amazing.

I still feel that if they make another Smash game, they should cut down the roster and make the veterans have brand new movesets. But also, each of them would have an Echo that would play like they used to. In this case, Mario would have a new move set, and Dr. Mario would play like old Mario.

Awesome to see this back! Oh and Just something I’ve always thought: the reason it was decided to be an uppercut instead of like the 50 other way Mario flies, other than it being a jump because jump man, is probably just to be a SF reference. I mean look at Yoshis Akuma pose; smash just liked to do that back when it being in the game didn’t seem likely. 🙂

After replaying Kirby Super Star for the NES for the first time in like 20+ years, I also figured that Sakurai took _a lot_ of things about Smash from Super Star. Stuff like shielding on the triggers, the spherical shield from Mirror Kirby, dash grabs, dash attacks, down tilts, aerial specials that sometimes can get angled, stuff like Fighter and Sword seemed instrumental for Smash’s eventual release imho.

Fun fact! His F Smash could reference the Firebrand from Mario and Luigi or vise versa. In M+L, both bros get elemental attacks. Mario can throw fireballs or make a large fireball form in front of him while Luigi gets lightning powers, able to shoot lightning bolts, lightning bombs, and make a large spark
