Beefy Smash Doods I expect a pac man review
Have you passed star wars story's yet?
Im so Happy you guys made this video, i was getting tired of your reaction videos.
Ayy ayy
Beefy Smash Doods (
"it works with every Fruit except the Bell" hmm makes sense
The famous fruit SpaceShip and Key.
Keyto diet
I feel like i am somehow the bell in that scenario. We all are bells in a society.
I also like how it works with my favourite fruit: key
Even the plane
When you get lost in the IQ section of UA-cam.
never mind we're back to normal :/
Chillava the fact that nobody liked your comment until me clearly proves it
Billable it's only been there for 2 hours...
Every Pacman has an IQ of 3000. Its on his victory animation xD
So Pac-mains are masters of vector subtraction, deflection and fluid dynamics? No wonder I have a hard time against them
I mean... When you have to strategically out manouver 4 ghosts trying to kill you for a living for almost 50 years, you get some tricks up your sleeve
technically its vector addition, but not really since individual magnitudes dont get added up. its more like finding the cross product as a unit vector and then projecting
As a pac-man main, i can confirm this as fact
Same
I’m a Pac-Man main
C5 : "In certains stages"
*Shows Lylat*
Me : Why doesn't it surprise me anymore?
i'm dying, this community shits on Lylat so hard its a meme
Teobaldo Leonheart I mean, for good reasons
Lylat is great for Pacman, Game & Watch, and Duck Hunt. I am starting to see a trend...
YoshiHunter_RedX and characters that have tools that are great at crossing through either ledge.
Lylat is picked not because it is particularly good for certain characters, but because it shits on two thirds of a roster. Luckily, I play D3, so I get to be the shitter, not the shitted.
I really appreciate you guys at the Beefy Smash Doods for taking the time to make this video! Y'all were so nice and receptive to any last minute edits or new tech that John and I found. This is such a well made video and using our footage is really such a treat. Thank you guys!
Skye💎
Skye, Love your channel and montages
Jojoadac thank you 😊 that makes me happy!
That edge guard tho... rush in on late recoveries. Scary indeed.
I know where to go for a decent pacman. Thanks beefy smash doods
Give this guy a heart plz.
we all know albert einstein would have been a pac man main
Underated comment
obviously, he would win EVO just by calculating the exact angle and distance he needs to throw the bell for it to get hit by the hydrant for launch and then he can use the water pressure to pac-dash to mixup and when the opponent thinks they are safe he hits them with a calcuated galaxia to fire hydrant offstage, simple math
he does take some skill
That thumbnail is what goes on inside the mind of a Pac-Man Main
Damn right
When you master your stick. You can be everywhere too. Just follow the pellets
That's exactly in my mind
Am pac-main. Can confirm. Also how are you everywhere?
ghjkl 456 you mean me?
“Pac-Man Tricks Explained”
Impossible.
Just a small part of them, he isn't talking about setup ideas and using enemies items.
*Tea has entered the chat*
FINALLY A TECH VID ITS BEEN AGES, ILYSM
Wait till it it gets patched
@@squirtleislife1312 They had fucking months to patch it and yet, it didn't happen. Therefore, it will never happen.
Oliver Xu there was alot shown in this vid so it's possible..
@@mathunit1 it was a joke, since most of the tech videos they've done so far have been patched
Only because pacman is such a complex charachter. About another 6 minutes worth of tech will be discovered by next week.
I love how this character has been in Smash since 2014, but every time I see any highlight or tech from him, it's always a surprise.
I can feel my IQ raising as I write this
Watch Dora, The Explorer so your IQ can back to normal
M. Sakurai no, that will react with his IQ and get them addicted to jojo’s bizzare adventure! They have to use the forbidden UA-cam channel...
Johnny Appleseed I'm a pacman main, I have ∞ iq, like every other Pac main. We know this. We know everything
blast. Its gotten to over 9000!
@@megaagentj2248
What's the forbidden UA-cam Channel?
pac man is probably the most appreciated high tier. the best pac man players have ALL of this tech and more in their minds, and can use it whenever they need to.
juneru not whenever, we need some time to perform these right.
@@nemi9217 you know what is meant. They understand the inner workings of the character to where they know what they can do, and what might be good in which situation.
Man, people in these comments really have no clue what they are talking about
Pacman has enough tech to fill a football stadium. And yeha they can maneuver
@@TheTozotube how so?
Pac-Man is like a really well designed puzzle game in that, when you combine two or more elements it produces an interaction that you’ve never seen before (because there are so many combinations!), but is perfectly logical.
That pacman hitting himself on the floor with his side-B in the firsts seconds of the video make me laugh so hard idk why lmao
0:15 ?
Waka waka OOF
LooooL!
The good thing about Pac Man is that he can do all of those things unexpectedly. That's why he's very special, I'm a proud pac main btw
Same here
My friend nearly convinced me that Pac-Man is bad
Nearly
Im a link main who likes to play pacman
I wish i was a proud main. Get stuck on Falcon and Game -& Watch
@@TapDat52K if you have fun with one character and push your level up constantly with that character, that's how you are proud of your main. Hopefully it's the case sooner or later for you
I learned a lot. Good stuff as usual!
Hi gimr
Ngl I miss when everything we did was a secret
I know damn well you pac man players are still hiding more tech
Rip indeed
@Scott Miller I never thought I would feel sad over a tech video of pacman
Don't worry, I'm too stupid to actually pull any of these off, so it's safe from me
@Scott Miller not sure why you say that. we def do
It’s funny that we still have even more secret techs we’re hiding
Kaheizer he forgot the up throw melon and then trampoline next to the ledge to make the opponent get automatically hit getting up. Hah what a fool, we still have that secret.
Wait
@@nemi9217 hahaha this had me rolling. thanks for this
@@nemi9217 🤦♂️
@@nemi9217 most characters can just roll through it though or just wait
and this is just the tip of the iceberg, them pac-mains actually have a million iq
No.
perhaps we do
@@TheTozotube yes
“Look at this backflip. Doesn’t it have swag?” -cfive 2019
Regarding side B, you can also use it to do a sort of extended/easy 2 frame by floating/placing it directly next to the ledge against characters with linear recoveries that possess a hitbox. Colliding with the pellet will put them in hitstun/hitlag freeze, and with Pac-Man having basically no lag, he can throw out a quick option like an angled forward tilt to 2 frame them with relative ease.
One fun detail about the hydrant is that is always has an active hitbox, specifically a HITbox, this means that you can stand close as a character with a counter, and it will activate and hit the hydrant. You can use this to stay in the pacmans face while he tries to set up on you.
This is why Pac-man is one of my favourite characters.
You: Up-tilt
Me, an intellectual: Platform drop cancelled up-air
Another trick that not many people know about is that if you use the trampoline right on top of the hydrant, the water will still shoot up.
Nintendo: *Patches most of these tricks*
BSD: Smash review ep 100
Comments: Where are the tutorials :(
Mario: the hell is he doing
Pac-Man: (does a hydrant boost and slides over to Mario while charging f-smash)
Mario: *_WHAT THE-_*
We too smart for Mario, we have big 🧠
Thank you so much for this Pac-Man guide. My brother and I love playing as him, and now with all this knowledge, I want to legitimately use him!
Noooo you fool why are you revealing our secrets!
You act as if other mains are going to remember all of this lingo
But we still having anothers tricks ;)
Their minds are too foolish don’t worry😂
@@inksaneluke7099 LOL SO TRUE
This is the kind of videos I subscribed for!!!!
Finally another tech video. Used to love these in SSB4. Not that Smash Review isn't good too, of course.
This video will probably make me main pac-man, and I love it!
Pfffff. Maining a character once you know tech? *Pathetic.*
un wn well, I like this kind of stuff
@@NoAirTTV Ik im joking. Just saying it is not as ez as it looks. And knowing just this wont take u anywhere. You need to learn stuff by yourself
un wn I know you are joking lol
"Look at this backflip ! Doesn't it have S W A G ?"
There was such a Vsauce vibe to this
I once knocked the fire hydrant at my friend, he knocked it back at me, then I hit it again, he went flying with low damage and instantly died. He was playing as Palutena.
The peak of human evolution has been reached.
Oh gosh this was such a good video! There’s so much more too. Love this, subscribed
Thanks for teaching me some new tricks. As a Pac Main some of these tricks I haven’t thought about like the fruit teleportating but the other things as fruit reflection I already knew. Thanks for the tips and I hope to improve my Pac Man
How people are able to play Pac-Man like this is beyond me. Props to everyone who has that much dedicated time on their hands.
You didn't have to do this, especially with such a small used character, but I love you so much for doing it. I really learned very important things from this that might actually improve my performance.
Oh finally thank God, a new trick based beefy smash vid. Time to see an increase of pac men online now
Me: he better not say Galaga
Him: says Galaga
Me: :(
Same. It's my biggest pet peeve
Also he called it fruit boosting and not gushing ):
Everyone knows it's a galaxian. I still say galaga regardless, because nobody cares, and galaga sounds better.
4:44 - Wow, I knew about Fox wavedashing but Pac-Man SUPERwavedashing?! DAMN!!!
Dude no, I'm a Pac Man main. You're giving away all of our secret techs ;-;
Hehe sucks for you guys. Great for me, now I know what to look for in Pac mains.
@@RickyRicardo135 Like 15 things xd
If up prime the hydrant and upB right next to it while on the ground, the hydrant will be sent straight up and slightly towards the center stage, while preserving the trampoline.
This is good for edguarding, all options except for wait and drop down are covered 👍
The best part is that PuckMan can summon fire hydrants at any time. I wish I could do that...
Now I finally know what the hell a Pacman's planning!
Nick Clark nah
There are some he didn't mention ;)
No you dont
These are the kind of videos i like from you guys
Aaaaaah yeah ! This is a realy cool and intetessant video ! Thank you guys :D
6:20 i discovered you can stand on the hydrant and down throw right before the water comes out and it launches heavies at a horizontal and downward angle. It works for most percents and kills at 120 or above at ledge
God level thumbnail game
Didnt even know these existed. Amazing work doods
I always loved PacMan and was so happy they added him to Smash Bros.. I thought I was good with him, but I see I still have a lot to learn lol.
I always knew that hydrant and fruit trick shots were like soccer ball tricks turned up to 11, but this is crazy!
1:53 this technique can also be done with characters who have attacks that moves them up a little bit such as ZSS, sheik, and bowser down air
Just fought a pacman on elite and he busted out a hyrant on trampoline at ledge and fucked me up bad. As well as a bunch of these tricks. I got sauced so bad i had to look this up
This is super helpful since I like to make my friends life hell by playing Pac-Man
I play pac man so this is what I have waited for. Thank you
Former Pac Man user in Sm4sh and even tho I call it Galaga informally, when it comes to guides or commentary I have to call it Galaxian
Why Pac-Man mains are too good:
1: masters of physics
2. Masters of math
3. They’re Albert Einstein
4. Every single thing they do is a part of their calculations to their master plan to clip you.
5. They got the brains and plans
6. They are the definition of “know your enemy”
7. They’re Ayankoji Kiyotaka. Forget about Albert Einstein.
The trajectory of the projectiles is so trippy
a cool concept is using neutral B charge as a sort of parry because if they attack the fruit there is hit-stop giving pacman time to shield/parry
Let’s just hope some of these techniques don’t get patched out or altered when Terry is added to the game.
Doubt. Pac man got a benefit on the last one
Pellet Loop + hydrant is useful as a set up for ledge trap
“Look at this backflip, doesn’t it have swag?”
The thumbnail really shows PAC-MAN is a phoenoman. He soon will be good.
I was expecting stuff like the "Galaxian at ledge > 50%" shenanigans.
Incredible thumbnail
Some of these feel like glitches but I hope they aren't patched. It's technical depth like this, accidental or not, that gives the game longetivity. People may dislike things like wavedashing in Melee, but its because of that kind of thing that has kept it alive so long. I want that for Ultimate; it's truly an amazing game.
Helped me alot. Im a pac main myself and learned so much. Thanks :)
Man that pellet shield was easier than I thought. Imma start using this
bruh thats the best thumbnail ever
Whoever made this video deserves a free ride to Princeton.
Mega Man main here. So much brotherly admiration.
Damn, they're really giving away all our secrets
@DEMARI WATKINS you still know nothing
Also this guy is pacman betrayer!
Pacman? More like Techman
"Let's use a weird music for this weird character" x')
But seriously, as a duck hunt main, I must bow down. That looks even more galaxy brain than the can.
Dont get me started on duck hunt. Makes sense that tue oldest characters (Original games) are the most glitched.
3 seconds in and I'm already bewildered.
How dare you, OUR SECRETS
This isn't even close to the 4D chess that Pac Man mains play in their heads.
This knowledge is a blessing.
This is gonna hype up to a of new PAC mains
BSD: Post videos on how to do cool tricks on certain characters
Sakurai: No! This isn't how you're supposed to play the game!
Kirby: I survived Galeem
Pac-Man: I'm four universes ahead of you
Kirby Neutral B: No U
Pac-Man: Oh...
*THE SACRED TEXTS*
Me: *watching video*
Also me: *suddenly realizes I main Joker*
Also me again: *keeps watching video*
This video is very M O I S T.
well the hydrant at least
@DEMARI WATKINS did you reply to every comment in new?
Legit didn't know the uptilt timing somehow. Very helpful.
We’ve all played those beautiful mind pacmains it can be humbling
Galaga: right back at ya!
You can get a Key/an Orange/a Galaxian/a Melon (
An up air that has a tiny pop up, 8 projectiles with unique properties, a hydrant with water that affects all players and items.....man Pac Man has the potential for the most stupid fun set-ups in all of Smash. I truly believe he is the most cool character thanks to all the whacky stuff you can do, the very essence of Smash bros being whacky.
thanks, now all my friends say he should be a dlc character
I would love a guide on Tech for ROB! I can share some of the tech I have learned as well if needed! His gyro is extremely versatile and would make for a great video :)
He has tech, but not as much as Pac-man so It wouldn't be a long video.
He mainly has launching angle gyro stuff and laser bouncing.

All us pacman mains all have our own secret trick and we love telling other pacmans about it😂
Basically
pac man is very OP
“You guys are willing to waste years of you lives optimizing a low tier character” - IntroSpective
isn't pac-man actually high tier
NintenJoeGamer Yes he is!
I don't even own a switch and I am binge watching smash videos
Ive discovered for myself that on the ledge, if u move the shield upwards, if the opponent doesnt have a nice vertical recovery hes dead tho
