Shulk: Hey look my neutral special made it on the list
Kirby: *our* neutral special
Oh wow 🤣
Oh wow 🤣
Oh wow 🤣
Lol
why did i laugh so hard at this
Don’t forget that Shulk can activate his Monado Arts during hitstun, literally breaking otherwise true combos when switching to Shield Art during the string.
And during some multihits lol
Even mewtwo down b???
Or with Smash, giving him too much knockback for a combo to work.
Therapist: Fox with Falco's laser isn't real. Fox with Falco's laser can't hurt you.
Fox with Falco's laser:
Welcome to Super Hitstun Bros
bruh 64 doesnt have that much hitstun everyone overexaggerates the issue of smash 64s issue is the lack of defensive options
*falco with fox's laser
@@patrickstar258 no DI, ass shield, and high hitstun all worked together
I'm not going to sleep thinking about
witch time has to be on here (well tbf all bayo specials should be on here)
In Smash Ultimate, it lasts for almost no time at all, and her kit doesn't help either. Smash attacks clash with basic moves, like dash attacks, and they can shield during Witch Time too.
But in Smash 4, yeah, it should be included 100%.
Smash 4 guns: she’s just standing there, *menacingly*
Smash 4 witch twist: up up and away
Smash 4 abk: the blast zone is that way, let’s go
Smash 4 witch time: ok lemme just go get lunch, take a nap, go babysit my cousin, and then I’ll come back and punish
Ultimate: you have lost bustedness privilege
At least bayo can still say she wielded not 1, but 4 guns for her neutral special way before joker ever did
@@decidueyefan3844
Bayonetta using guns for all of her moves, besides Witch Time, grabs and get-up attacks xd
Her bullet arc isn't that great
@@loading...948
Arc? If you mean arts, then yeah, they aren't great, but having a constant 360° attack is great.
And for his neutral special: G U N
That's only the best special move
Joker with *gun* is not that broken. Fox with a gun is basic af. KIRBY with a *gun* however, that is truly terrifying.
@@pyromaniac000000 Kirby with a gun is nightmare fuel
Lisa George kirbys had enough of being a bottom tier, and has finally snapped
tEcHnIcAlLy ItS a MoDeL gUn
“Shulks neutral special gives him a boost for all of his attacks”
Hero down special
“Am i a joke to you?”
Ah yes. That down b that relies on luck that may give you magic burst or *_K A C L A N G_*
Command Selection gives you a lot of options, but you don't know which of those options you actually have until you use it, which affects hpw useful it is. Imagine if you're trying to punish a shield break and you get Sizz, Kaclang, Acceleratle, and Heal. Not very useful.
@@impossiblehanley2732 or zoom or being faster Then the speed of Light
Congrats on 50k dude you earned it
Thanks, that means a lot! :D
I LOVE YOU ALEX
@@AlexEXE You Also Deserve Way More Subs
Alex: We are not doing this based on recovery's I already did that.
Also Alex: It AlSo iS a GrEaT ReCoVeRy MovE
I think he meant Up-B’s not any other special move
To be fair, all of Meta Knight's specials recovered and he was the best character, so...
Tren Bell still is in Brawl
@@trentbell8276 literally every single one of them, I loved meta knight in brawl. 😅
Ok you have a good point.
“Everyone has been killed by Snake’s missile at least once” *Laughs in Rosalina down b*
Beeps in G&W Down B
*Screams in Pits Orbitars*
Howls in villager pocket
Cries in Up B Ganondorfin
laghs in reflector
0:15 did anyone else realize that the Samus teched the ganon down b spike and then ganon lost
It was on the screen so ya everyone saw it and knows it
Damn, that is so unlucky.
@@GoBucs0221 I didn't notice it.
@@k-leb4671 oh
yes
Seeing brawl makes me appreciate how good the sonic model was.
@Matheus Fernandes not really,I liked the middle face treatment.Basically his mouth doesn't show up until an idle or taunt,which were the best out of all smash games.
I also like the fact that Sonic had more expressions compared to the later installments
@@StanleySophana MUCH more.
@@ahmadkazan7994 same here i liked brawl sonic compared to 4 and ultimate
@@smashfan2175 his voice is better than the new ones
"Imagine if you were to give this move to, say, Meta Knight"
Kirby: *jump art intensifies*
Sonic + Speed = yes
@@spaceonisorceress4406 if sonic had the speed art he would be faster than a super duper wavedashing samus
Still says ganking and now projectles, i swear he's doing it on purpose.
Ikr
His head is ganked.
Snake: Heh edge guarding? No problem
Steve: Ima ruin this mans whole career.
Brawl Meta Knight’s down special is so broken that it made you permanently invincible (but you couldn’t attack) and they had to ban using that tech
Imo his up b is the best since it's VERY fast and kills, and good range, literally one of the best ways to recover, i frames in the beginning, safe and cancelable after the initial hit and he's up in the sky. Totally busted
Water Sheep so basically all of meta knight
@@AshenDust_ YESSSSSSS
"Melee Jigglypuff isn't good"
I know a certain box that can prove you wrong
HungryBox
A very hungry box I may add
Zelda’s down-b is the greatest attack in most games
Liki Lester I mean, you’re not wrong. With the exception of smash 4, Zelda down b was busted. In melee and brawl it buffed her in almost every way, and in ultimate it has extreme range, high damage, can peel people off the ledge, can 2 frame, can be used as a shield if you know displaced phantom, and is her best zoning tool. Why they buffed it in patch 7.0.0 we’ll never know.
Lol
True
My brother is a zelda main so I learned to play around phantom, not that busted
Random Guy. I mean the games where she turned into Shiek
These may be on the other vid in the future but here are some that could’ve been on this list
(Ultimate) Mr game and watch up b
Zero suit flip kick
Wario waft
There are probably way more but these are some I kept in mind
Also congrats on 50K subs :)
I think spindash and pokemon trainer's down B can be in the list too.
Not a professional by any means but what about Ultimate Roy Side Special?
Basically Smash 4 Limit Cross Slash that can give any character an easy killing option in general thanks to its raw strength, great speed, and is also useful at lower percents as a combo ender. Might just be because it's Roy the Boy we're talking about but I'd just think I'd bring that up.
@@ahmadkazan7994 PT down b is more a mechanic than an actual move, but you can make an argument with i frames and yadayada. Spindashis just annoying to deal with, and it's not close to being one of the bestmoves
@@ghostfire1192 Spindash is defenitly one of the best moves in at least smash 4(heck even in ultimate spindash is still leads to everything and has 6 frames of invincibility that get replinsjed every time you drift)
Safe on shield,combos to anything,has invincibility,cancelable,helps recovery,combined with spring can punish smash 4 witch time.
@@musicgreninja5875 it can be,is it safe on shield?I think you can escape getting punished even when landing the full move.
8:53
Alex.EXE: We've all been killed by this, right?
Me: No...
You'r" lying bruh xD
@@khalilboutira1177 Actually, no I'm not. I've never gotten killed by this move anytime I face a Snake player. XD
Alex Maike A vídeo best charaters
Best chareters
You're doing absolutely amazing my guy
You're extremely underrated, hopefully your subscriber count goes up by a lot some time
Just imagine Fox and Falco having their Shines from Melee implemented to Ultimate
They would be top 2 again.
Yes please
No, that was the result of poor balancing.
I do wish their down b would’ve still helped them stall in the air. And also nerfed Luigi’s down b as well because of it’s lack of recovery
Excuse me while I go cry and have Vietnam flashbacks
I love how you mention shulk's neutral B and proceed to not once mention shulk can use it while in hitstun to break most combos (I think he can use it in hitstun, I KNOW he can use it to break combos)
Me, watching the video: ...
Alex: Says "gank" instead of "gimp"
Me: Aight, I'mma head out.
ginger_queen that’s been bugging me for months
GiMP doesn't like people saying gimp in any context that isn't graphical, so some people respect it
I love every special move....
Except for pk fire. I have nightmares.
Wait a minite i know you
Yep i do too
I hate pk fire

I LOVE Pk fire Unless It's Used Against Me
Shulks neutral special in ultimate is the best move in the game. No matter what attack you try to argue is better, with Monado arts active those moves could be even better than that. And no character relies completely on their neutral special, so they still have options with the new neutral B. Every character gets a better recovery. Every character can combo better. Every character can kill better. Monado arts is the best move in the game.
I would actually swap Mach Tornado with Shuttle Loop. That move was way more busted.
YES!
Another thing about Shulk's monado arts is that they all have a drawback as well. Both Jump and Smash make you easier to launch, shield and speed make you deal less damage, and buster makes you take more damage as well.
Snake grenade. Frame 1, combo breaker, can kill, makes follow ups and chases near impossible, projectile, trapping tool, approach obfuscator, etc.
I was hoping Young Link’s Fire Arrows would at least be an honorable mention.
I love how you don't really even mention what makes shine so broken (i understand it, it would take a lot of time to describe the most broken smash move of all times IMO, if you don't wanna read all this, is how you end the move), well, i guess that's my job, as you said it's a frame 1 intangible move with reflector properties on frame 4, a frame 4 oos option for fox and frame 6 for falco, with combo and edgeguard capabilities, but, that's not what really makes shine broken, the best part about shine it's not doing the move, it's ending it... What makes shine broken is the fact fo being jump cancelable on frame 4, what this means is safe preassure, heavy combo game for falco, a safe and fast way of turning around in the air, a way of staling safely with the free oos card of canceling whenever an oponent comes close, and also, since it's jumpcancelable, you can cancel to other things too, as i said, you can preassure with shine and aereals safely, but you can also shine a shield and wavedash back to bait an attack, or shine a shield and do a jump cancel grab (canceling jump to grab), or do shine jump canceled up smash to combo (the Wombo combo clip has one of this), you can also cancel it to up B (just for BM btw), or more importantly, you can do a jump cancel shine (doing a shine the first frame you are in the air so your jump's momentum stop and you instantly touch the ground, basically giving you acces to shine oos) out of another shine, doing a double shine, or a triple shine, or infinite shines if you are technical enough, giving you access to the most opressive shield preassure in the game, being able to mixt it up at the moment you want, for either a grab (free tech chase, edgeguard, or u-air for kill if fox, and the same, just changing the u-air for a chain grab / combo) a strong attack like u-smash (shield break), etc. That's not even mentioning that you can do a pseudo infinite with fox's waveshine (wavedash out of shine) wich works on every character that doesn't get into a tech chase when shined, and that you can only scape if either 1 the fox player mess it up, or 2 the fox player isn't reacting to your di, you can also combo with it with each character, falco with basically any areal, or fox with some of his waveshine follow ups, like drill up-smash (kills around 100, and if you are puff say goodbye), d-tilt, f-tilt, u-tilt, jab wich combos into up-smash or grab, up-smash, d-smash, f-smash, grab, n-air, reverse b-air, a falling f-air (just the first hit) wich combos into n-air, you can alsl hit an up air, you can wavedash back after the waveshine and apply preassure, etc + you can do even more stuff that i can't cover here, but as an example i would say Mine Shine, a glitch that allows you to let the reflecting hitbox of shine (just the reflector, not the hit) for 1 frame on practically anywhere you want to (if you wanna learn how to do it search High Tier Oddities, a video from Asum Saus)
alex said “I wont be covering recovery moves” because he doesntwant a repeat of g&w’s up b lmfao
A new video from Alex always makes my day :)
Just one I'm gonna point out, and maybe it will be in part 2. Ultimate Link Remote Bomb. Dumb edge gaurds, recovery boost, neutral mix ups, and stage control. I may be a bit biased, but the move is pretty darn good.
Not as universally versatile as say shine and not as dumbass broken as Brawl bananas. It's a very good move but it's not in the very top. If it gets grabbed or pocketed, Link can't even use it anymore, not to mention it can be hit back, which makes Link unable to throw it out willy nilly unlike stuff like 64 lasers
It still has alot of down sides.Though the better of all links.
Alex: Remote Missile is a no-brainer for edgeguarding.
But it's nowhere NEAR as satisfying as dunking them at 100 miles an hour with a well-timed forward air.
You forgot that shield literally let’s you escape from combos for free.
"It can even kill at very low percentages"
>150%
Ngl your videos are betting better and better. Congrats on 50K btw
3:24 "You guys know Jigglypuff, right? Yeah, that character isn't very good"
*sad Hungrybox noises*
Samus charge shot. you can hop out of the move now get full charge shot while recovering plus wave bouncing and b reversing is crazy when done right
Nice video bro I’ve been exciting for this to come out
I like Simon and Richter’s down b because it’s like down b then side smash. And Mii Brawler’s flashing mach punch is also pretty awesome.
My absolute favorite move in the game is Terry's buster wolf. Its just so satisfying to land. It's just something about Terry saying "Are you ok?" Before punching them into oblivion while shouting "BUSTA WOLF!" is so satisfying. Not only is it powerful it can be comboed into. And it can kill at 60% of performed at the edge of a stage
The comedy in this is actually hilarious, keep up the great work man!
After seeing that falcon punch was on the list I’m not gunna take it seriously.
In a competitive setting, Brawl Meta Knight’s Dimensional Cape is easily the best special move of all time. Get a percent lead, and use the Infinite Cape glitch you stall indefinitely (which is very difficult to do, but possible.)
It’s the only move that’s ever been totally banned in competitive play- even *Wobbling* didn’t achieve that.
I’d say flipkick is the best down special in ultimate
50K is absolutely deserved man! Love your content!
Smash 4: Roy's side B killing at 60% isn't real, Roy's side B killing at 60% can't hurt you.
Smash Ultimate: Fa1l Is nOt An OpTioN.
All those FE characters with dancing blade got a sick buff in smash ultimate. As well has Mr Legends & Destruction hitting you with judge and it’s a 9
3:46
Alex: It can kill at early percantages
also Alex: shows it KO ing at 126%
“Pro-ject-tulls”
Link's Remote Bomb in Ultimate is also easily one of the best.
It is everything from a zoning tool, a kill move, a trap, an edgeguard, a tossable item to extend combos with, and even a recovery tool. It interacts with the rest of his kit too such as shooting it with his arrows or boomerang to knock it into the opponent or hitting it with your sword to launch it at surprising angles.
I haven’t got killed by remote missile...
*Because whenever I see a Snake, I just jump off the stage*
We all know that the best special move is ness's side b
pK fIrE
PIKAY FAYAH
Something you didn't mention with Shulk's Monado Arts are that they can be activated out of hitstun, and Monado Shield also stops combos when using it. So Shulk has no disadvantage state.
Hi 🙋♂️!!!
Hello Jammie!
Hi!
@@AlexEXE Hello Alex! Like your videos about smash. I have a suggestion. That suggestion is that you do a video of the BEST characters in smash history.
I am so glad you didn't include Ness. Thank you for Sparring me of the pain
When an Autobot plays Smash Bros., what's his favorite button?
Bumble-*B* !!
f u n n y
When I play snake smash ultimate, I gave the little missle the nickname: mini mac
Joker down b, hero magic burst and other down b options, piranna plant Neutral B, terry GO moves, pika T-jolt, Ness side-B, bowser up b, Roy side-b, game and watch up-b, zero suit down-b, wario down b, snake grenade, sonic spin dash, kens SHORYUKEN. I may have gotten them all for ultimate. Give me suggestions in the replies!
The Pig Monado Arts are better than all of them
nice_gaming funny moments XD I'm not including the ones that he already said but I do know how busted monado arts is
Zelda's down special was pretty good in Melee
down B for better character
Game and Watch Up B:
-Insane OOS option that can give u free combo + advantage stage if hit
-Can be use to extend combo
-Didnt get u in completely disadvantage...in fact most of the time may easily return you to neutral if miss
-Safe recovery
-2 hit that are hard to shield at ledge
-Insane recover range
-Can kill offstage
This move could do it all
Was watching some of your vids earlier this morning lmao.
Glad you posted this.
For the last time, it’s gimping, not ganking
Spoiler:
Jigglypuff up b is the best special move
:0
Its really bad, but ok
@@marwin436 :(
I KNEW IT!!
@@marwin436 yes
That is the joke
Min Min:What are special moves?
Hero: WHICH ONES?!?!
PK Freeze is so OP in ultimate.
It travels freaking fast, it's knockback is insane, and it's a pretty safe move
and you arent dead if you use it in the air
Snake mains: haha, nikita goes *beep beep*
1:23 i love how the gun syncs with the music
Your Videos Are Amazing And Really Well Done!
This is what we all waited for yay
3:38 can we have more of these pop offs, that caught me off guard so hard😂😂
Rebel's guard and Tetrakarn/Makarakan are really good lmao
I would have had Waft, Bonus Fruit, or Grenades over Nikita missile for Ultimate's picks, but Monado Arts would have still been above those
Flip jump too
We all just forgetting about Tjolt?
Dr. Mario’s doctor Tornado is solid. It’s basically a second recovery option for Doc. I love it.
you forgot about the fact that didn’t kong can glide toss in brawl
using Kirby's copy ability is a stronger version of neutral special that gives Kirby better Monado Arts
Olimar in ultimate: three pikmin
Olimar in brawl:DOUBLE THE ANNOYANCE BI-
I think Smash 4 Sonic's Spin Dash deserved a mention here. Spin Dash was one of the best moves in the entire game. 6 frames of intangibility, incredible burst movement with Spin Shot, combos into Sonic's excellent up air, leads into a Spring Ride kill confirms, and best of all, it was shield-cancellable which made it non-committal to throw out in neutral. Sonic's viability in S4 was almost exclusively tied to the effectiveness of Spin Dash.
Congrats on 50k subs Alex!
Any of Samus's special moves will always be my favorite. They flow together and are a zoners bread and butter.
Glad to have found this channel today. Great video and I'm subscribing
Thanks for your awesome videos always happy to see them ❤
I think Falcon Dive in Smash 64 is one of the better moves in that game as well. Not only does Captain Falcon yell "YES!" when it lands, making it satisfying to do so, you can use it again and again until the opponent either dies off the top of the screen or you mix it up with another aerial. In fact, one the most common combos in the game is the Falcon standard, where you chain multiple up airs into the Falcon Dive to kill most characters on the top of the screen at mid to high percents, If not only to bring your opponent to those mid to high percents. It's really easy to do once you get some practice in, and you can be very satisfied taking a stock off at 80% off the top of the screen.
Alex: Jigglypuff is isn't very good in Melee.
Jigglypuff: *UM, EXCUSE ME? I'M IN A TIER*
Alex:we have all been killed by snakes missile right?
Me a snake main who knows how to deal with it:no
My brother is a snake main and the number of times I died from this míssil offstage
I believe spindash is a honorable mention.Specifically smash 4.Leads to every thing,helps recover,safe on shield,cancelable,heck with spring you can PUNISH whitch time.
"Nikita is the best edgeguarding tool" Ram Ram F-smash: are u sure about that?
Days without Alex saying "gank" instead of "gimp": 0
Yo Alex it’s the guy from the stream who asked about video leaks :)
I think most snake players would put his grenades over tbe missle. Zone control, interrupting projectile, able to throw in a bunch of different ways, creates frame traps, frame 1 combo breaker, it pretty much defines his neutral and synergizes with the rest of his kit.
I just realised that you had 50K subs. The channel seemed more popular with such quality.
At first I was expecting the smash 4 section to have some of the more ridiculous custom moves, but then I saw what he actually picked and I honestly think they're better
It was time for this video :3
Edit:i think samus special move must have been in the video
The Ganondorf player in the clip at the start was probably so upset after that
“that character isn’t good”
“Yeah, puff is not good”
- A certain human also part of the “box” species
3:48
Alex: it kills very early
Me: Looks at donkey kong percent
Two Words...Two..
PK FIRE
Surprised shuttle loop isn't in the brawl part. Imo thats the best move in the game
