I absolutely love how you explain not only your mindset but also your opponents and how you can potentially capitalize on their habits. It made me realize my thinking can be very narrow minded and simplistic. I'm too focused on technicalities like trying to set up a combo that I forget to play neutral and actually look at what my opponent is doing. Thanks again ^^
I really like your take on the psychology behind aggressive and defensive play. I've never thought about how you can affect the mindset of your opponent just by not doing what they want you to do.
If your character is espically one way or the other, when the opponent doesn't play the other role or just denies agression by playing defensive really well--it can be hard to react. For ex. Mac is best when used defensively, but when the other goes defensive at the ledge you might as well have the patience of a saint and out think him or just SD
I love how you stay calm the whole time. I haven't played since smash 4, but I would get comboed or would lose a lot, and end up getting really mad. I'm getting ultimate for Christmas, along with a switch, so I'm hoping that I can learn from my loses and improve from matches. Keep up the great video!
The best thing you can do is tell the people youre facing that they did a good job or it was a good match. Smash is a game that you need to be calm in order to play effectively.
Dude honestly idk if ur gonna see this but out of all the people uploading smash content yours is 100% the best like, all of ur guides are super in depth and the coaching in the videos is insanely helpful, and somehow u manage to keep mundane little tasks like that and everything interesting and entertaining! Not to mention that you're incredible at the game. Thanks for existing
I always ask about how to think while playing, and you saying what your thinking while playing is so much better than receiving a response. More players should do this
Thanks for proving that the genes of Big Boss are still viable. People have been criticising Snake in Ultimate so far, so we need someone to prove that a man who singlehandedly destroys Metal Gears can take on a squid.
DeFactoLeader he is top tier what are you talking about? If you look at characters baised on tournaments results snake is top 3. Snake is just too versatile, and I love it.
Incredibly humble and love your commentary. You pretty much highlight everything you’re doing and this complements everything you’ve talked about in your in-depth guide!
first of all amazing video. You are always focused, on topic, and give details about everything that is happening in the match. Second of all, i love how nice you are. You never get angry at yourself or the other person. You even compliment the opponent even though they can't hear you lol i love it
You are my favorite smash channel, I love how you talk through all of you and your opponents decisions. I'm new to learning how to play neutral and adapt to my opponent, so your commentary is really helpful to understand all of it
Jtails - I love the commentary you do while playing, it's more informative than any other Smash player I follow. I learn so much from watching your stuff and you explain every decision you make in a way that makes sense. Thank you!
Love the commentary, if you people are looking for more Snake gameplay, have a look at Ally a high ranking smash player, doesn't have the commentary like this sadly but does show different playstyle with a lot of grenade use, d-airs and n-airs, could learn an extra thing or two from that. This video is incredibly helpful though, thanks!
Man, you’re awesome. Seeing you play like this gives me confidence in my snake play. I’ve improved since your last snake video and I must say, it’s all thanks to you. I hope to see more of your awesome content!
This was a fantastic video! It's so interesting to watch good Snakes, but it's even better when you also manage to talk about your decisions and such while still be able to play well. I'm learning a lot from this!
I like the way this video is formatted. I love how you explain why you are doing each move and show your thought process. You're also very humble as well! I want to see more videos like this because its super informative.
Dude I really appreciate how you break down combat and your demeanor when battling. Thanks for also showing how Snake can be a feared threat! Glad I found your channel and you got a new sub!
I gotta say Jtails this is definitely some of the best smash content out right now. You really go in depth of what you’re doing and it helps me (and i’m sure others) sort of get into the mind of a top player and learn how to make reads and see what options opponents use/have
Thank you for this video. It may be much for me to ask but I'm looking forward to the next snake video. The commentary is fantastic and I feel like I'm learning so much.
Got destroyed by 2 Snakes online today, decided to check out your channel to learn what the hell Snake even does at a high level. Great videos! Might even try to play him myself
I really like your explanations and play-by-play. Helpful and insightful not just how to play Snake but also just General tips that can be applied to everyone. Instant sub (:
Awesome video. Ultimate is my first smash game since N64 days, and I naturally wanna main Snake as I’ve been a MGS fan forever. I got discouraged when I saw a ranking video or two and people thinking lowly of him this game, seems like you handle just fine
dude i love your commentary and i dont know how you can smash and commentate without falling silent haha very good snake play will change my playstile dramatically thanks to you
GoatTails back at it again to educate. Tomorrow morning I’m definitely watching this. But I wanted to chime in before hand and say that you’re the man Jtails. You’re the one who made me a competitive smash player just with all your tutorials and breakdowns. You taught me Villager, Lucario and Luigi. Along with improved my Mario and Robin. On top of that, taught me how to read and breakdown bad habits, to the point I don’t several tournaments amongst friends whom used to be significantly better than me. I’m struggling a bit with ultimate, not grasping it too well like sm4sh, but I know with your help I’ll be good. I just wanted to say thank you as a small individual from the smash community. We all appreciate your work so much.
I think your way of explaining while you play is really helpful early on into the game! Currently youtube's filled with guides and montages but i think early on these are more useful- especially as someone whos not got the game yet and just has to sit and wait. :(
You're so damn good at this game man. I just kinda press buttons and occasionally hold a direction on the c stick but I can't even fathom how I could get to a level close to how good you are with snake on my main.
Good lord you can seamlessly talk and play at the same time. While playing one of the most demanding characters in the game no less! Thats gonna be a sub from me, a non-snake main. Hope i see you in tournaments!
Hey thank you Kevin! I plan on making a ton of videos just like this one. I appreciate you sticking around :) Also I was at a Seattle local last night and ended up getting 5th/116! I'll be at an event called Don't Park on the Grass today! 500 entrants!
its also really awsome that you can explain and play at the same time, it makes watching very entertaining, you are pretty similar to Gernader Jake from the Destiny Community when it comes to this and i enjoy it a lot ;)
Really great video, would love to see more of this combination: guide + online demo. Would love to see cloud or some space animals! Good luck for the weekend :-)
Man, looks like you're getting that f-tilt problem too. I really don't want to switch to cstick tilts yet but snake just does that forward smash so much
One thing I like to do as Snake when recovering low is cancel ur up b into a directional airdodge to ledge. It makes it more safe and guaranteed that u grab ledge without getting punished. Also if the other person is camping ledge while u recover low the thing snake grabs on will always hit them above so they either have to shield or back off. I can't tell u how many times it catches ppl off guard.
Yea, with your thing about Snake being heavy and able to take grenades, if you're playing with Final Smash meter on and you're close enough to getting it, you can pop a grenade on yourself and get that last bit of charge. Grenade is about 1-5%, so it'll contribute a bit less than if you, say, detonate a c4 on yourself with around 21%. neither are really recommended at high percents (esp the c4), but if you're fairly low, you can probably risk popping one off to speed up the last bit of charge for the airstrike kill
Awesome stuff man 👏 I really like how you explained everything you were doing in the matches I'm currently maining Roy in Ultimate and I'm looking for a Pocket character since I didn't play Brawl all to much I didn't really consider snake to be good and in Ultimate he looks like a ton of fun I'm starting to like his play style and combos so watching this really gives me an idea on how I should use him thanks much brotha
Subscribed. Thanks for these snake videos, been wanting to learn. Could you show more of your online battles? I also need to finish watching your snake tutorial.
I really enjoyed watching you play and your commentary is superb. I am impressed by your Smash skills but even more so by you analyzing every move of your opponent and quickly picking up on the opponents movement habits :O Can you perhabs make a video on how to better analyze enemy movement and act accordingly in the future? :D Lots of love :)
Really loving these tutorial + elite smash videos. They're a dope combo, and I can't get enough! Subbed. Any chance we can see an inkling or simon/richter video in the near future?
“I’m gonna bring my snake into the online ranked mode”
Dude there are kids playing this game!
Lol just got it
Is that a sexual in-your-endo?
especially since it on on an inkling girl
@@itzyaboi4297 *in-NINTENDO
Leech They won’t get it, it doesn’t matter.
He who controls the battlefield, controls history.
@RySpirit In Snake’s case, if he control the stage, he has the advantage in smash.
master down +b to grant you victory
When the Battlefield is under control
Smash... becomes routine
I absolutely love how you explain not only your mindset but also your opponents and how you can potentially capitalize on their habits. It made me realize my thinking can be very narrow minded and simplistic. I'm too focused on technicalities like trying to set up a combo that I forget to play neutral and actually look at what my opponent is doing. Thanks again ^^
You sound like the khan academy guy
he is
Lmao
Lol facts also hard to here him over the constant controller clicks....
He was a teacher lol
Man. Sounds just like him!!!!
I really like your take on the psychology behind aggressive and defensive play. I've never thought about how you can affect the mindset of your opponent just by not doing what they want you to do.
I know right! 😂

Jon Scheaffer Zackray is the god of this, when you watch his Wolf sometimes he literally just stands there, that kid is such a prodigy man
Your Snake is so Solid. Good luck at the tournament this weekend!!!
I see what you did there
James Martin *you’re
QuietDon No? That's exactly not how grammar works
James Martin you used the wrong your it’s you’re
QuietDon Don't tell me you want the sentence to say "You are Snake is solid" because if so YOU'RE as bright as a pistachio nut
Snake is so much fun to play
Really fun to watch as well!
I love how you stay calm the whole time. I haven't played since smash 4, but I would get comboed or would lose a lot, and end up getting really mad.

The best thing you can do is tell the people youre facing that they did a good job or it was a good match. Smash is a game that you need to be calm in order to play effectively.
Also play a lot of games. With a lot of games you can get used to pressure and you too can play it cool
All your losses are lessons, my man
You never played smash before?
YetiMonster1473 no one has played since Smash 4........because Smash 4 was the last game......🤦🏾♂️
You sound so gentle and friendly
But on the inside he's actually a BEAST.
*while cooking grenades*
JTails: Oh hi there! One sec, be right with you.

Amazing Snake man. You re good, period.
Snake's down air as spicy as ever. Welcome back
Thank you for this very hard exercise of commentary while playing! It looked easy for you. It's so good to know the reasoning behind your moves.
I would really enjoy seeing more videos like this, whenever you have the time and energy to put this style video out, I will always watch
I love how chill you are dude. Thanks for the great video
Got destroyed by 2 Snakes online today, decided to check out your channel to learn what the hell Snake even does at a high level. Great videos! Might even try to play him myself
I could watch these “live narration” videos all day, great content! :D
Thank you, I just quit my job recently, so expect more daily!
I really like your explanations and play-by-play.

Very helpful information! I appreciate the real-time through process explanations
You are the only person I genuinely enjoy watching play matches
Omg your flow is so smooth!! I've been trying snake these days but man! You're a natural!
Why does this feel like Bob Ross is teaching me Snake?
the most humble and kind player ever possible!
Do more of these please, it's really entertaining to watch a snake player
Snakes dash attack goes through the roller by the way
dude this is awesome good comentary man. watching this really makes want to try snake
15:17
Speaking of scaring people, LMAO!!!
I would really like seeing more of these snake "in-action" videos. I def found it really helpful not just for snake but in general!
15:17 - "No! Not on my UA-cam channel!"
XDDDD same tho
Great video for expaining your thought process while playing. Helpful for learning snake but also for learning more top tier smash tactics!
Quality commentary as expected. Welcome back Jtails

You have made me a happy boy with no regrets
JTails can you make this a series? I’ve learned a ton just from listening to your thought process as you play!! This vid is SO helpful.
This will definitely be a series!
Honestly, thanks a lot for making this video! Looking forward to more smash guides, and I hope you do well at Seattle!
I think your way of explaining while you play is really helpful early on into the game! Currently youtube's filled with guides and montages but i think early on these are more useful- especially as someone whos not got the game yet and just has to sit and wait. :(
