@@aguyontheinternet8436At some weights you can't really get out of the walking jab. Fox is one of those characters. Doesn't matter if you're a random player or light it's rough and you can get cheesed.
"You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain" Thank God Riddles wasn't consumed and saw the Terry at the end of the tunnel.
It's a double edged sword: if to many top players pick Steve it will probably get him banned, but if everyone plays Steve then the Steve counterplay meta could get developed to a point where Steve wouldn't be considered as viable.
@@sebastianandres6802 Yeah cause thats what happened with bayo lmao. If anything so many top players will pick him up that they can't ban steve anymore
@@sebastianandres6802 not gonna happen. This game isn't developing any more meta there's nothing to discover the devs never made this game to be competitive so why waste time and money to properly balance you know? Tbh is there even real counterplay in this game? Something that isn't situation based?
Yeah.. I tried Steve as well for the first time for a whole day and I wasn't on the train that Steve is *that* op but after just toying with him he's really..really dumb, he does too much too easily is the problem. Like if the stuff he did was legit hard it would be fine, or more fine. I main Seph so I never had much of a problem against him.
I have beaten Steve in a one vs one tournament online with bowser jr and my final opponent was an incenoroar either he would get beaten by Steve or me. The tournament had only two stocks and my opponent got diamond picaxe on his last stock and I still beat him.
Steve is no way the easiest in the game, Pyra/Mythra you can just mash unpunished where Steve you need to mash AND mine. Two braincells instead of one.
If they just made it so Steve could only place blocks on the ground he’d be so much less broken and more accurate to the game. If he’s in smash 6 whenever they comes out I hope that’s a change they’ll make along with some other stuff
Yeah like what if you could only place blocks offstage if you made some sort of bridge of blocks that start at the stage and go to the block limit, so you can’t just place a block anywhere and make it more canonically accurate
Tbf, a player as good as Riddles could pick up literally any character and dust people on unranked, this isn't unique to Steve. Especially with the low skill ceiling of many characters, "Steve is easy" isn't really an argument.
Steve is such an interesting character to me (not sarcasm). He’s got a lot of technical stuff that you need to know to be good, but the moment you know that technical stuff, his game plan becomes the most simple and glue-eating strategy in the game. Fascinating how that worked out I hate to say it…but it makes me wanna play steve
I’ve been a Steve main since he came out and I’ve had so much fun playing him. He does have some bullshit but the more technical stuff like NIL’s and TBC is so cool to pull off. broken character tho.
The only reason I main Steve is because I got smash about a month before he was revealed so the only character from a game that I played was just Mario and Link and I wanted to play another character from a game I enjoyed so I got Steve.
Now you know how tekken players feel when leroy came out in season 3, best character in the game by far a tier of his own, it's basically a boss character, and super easy 6 Leroy in top 8 EVO japan btw, Knee and arslan beat by a random leroy. And the winner of this EVO : BOOK said at the end "Just pick leroy" he was a jin main.
I legitimately hope they do. I'm sick of pros with these whack ass takes but no one wants to capitalize on it. "X is SS tier and needs banned" is a much more valid argument if they swap and produce results.
Good idea but if he does it, in my opinion, that's not the Riddles that I know. Riddles without Kazuya and Terry is an another Riddles. That's makes me sad just thinking about...
@@VincentNRV lol yeah completely understandable, I wouldn’t want him to change it either. I just thought it would be funny if he did it for just one video 😂
@@austinroccaro2219 I've seen top players just let Steve get a diamond before, I think we should let people learn counterplay develop, people in Japan are even asking why westerners aren't using Steve counterplay lol.
@Joshua Suh He’s been out for two years and only now he’s dominating tournaments??? I don’t remember hearing about steve dominating tournaments before then. Also I’m pretty sure MKleo said that he himself didn’t know the matchup.
Well I mean, I thought it was a Tekken joke, so like steve fox, but well, it's real. You got me into terry, but like, everyone drops their characters for steve, so I guess I will leave Terry for steve. Give it a shot
I love how Riddles reactions to his own BS is probably the same reactions his opponents are having. This is hilarious 🤣
Lots of head shakes.
@@krys3001 watching some of the smash con sets with onin on it I was shaking my head the whole time, like how is this character real...
Steve is so complex and interesting. I love to see that riddles is finally picking up a hype low tier!
lmaoooo
izaw was right, this character has no future and is probably bottom 10!
@@yggdrasilsaltar and also has a below average recovery
@@yggdrasilsaltar bro I wish that video was accurate 😭
What do you mean bro, he is bottom 3 lol
7:40 wow, you can tell by riddles' face how mechanically intensive that whole sequence was. Well earned stocks.
Did he even try to fight. It seemed like he was doing an interpretive dance round the steve. He just got what he deserved lol

The Chad Steve: *Look up and press A to win*
Hey hey hey he has to jump too!
Fgc characters dont have real inputs in smash
@@jamesrunions9010 lol. you troll.
thats cap
@@jamesrunions9010 fighting game character characters?
I love Riddles maniacal laughing at Steve’s bullshit
"You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain"
Thank God Riddles wasn't consumed and saw the Terry at the end of the tunnel.
THANK GOD
damn why this statement fit so well
As a Minecraft fan I embrace the villain life lol
And now?
That tnt messing with timing tech might be crazy vs Ness and Lucas
Yes the more top players pick Steve up and making top 16, the closer we get to the endgame.
We need to see the Ivysaur counterpicks come out first
It's a double edged sword: if to many top players pick Steve it will probably get him banned, but if everyone plays Steve then the Steve counterplay meta could get developed to a point where Steve wouldn't be considered as viable.

I'm so glad you're finally picking up a character with depth.
Light at Smash Con: "I'm the only person left in bracket who can defeat Onin!"
Light had he reached grands: 7:39
Regular Minecraft player in SSBU with they regular attack be like:
3:07 top level gameplay right here, very technical character!
That's how good the Bair is. You can be at 146% against Joker, swing ass and it's optimal Steven gameplay.
@@Zx30 to be fair, joker bair is just as broken
Jokers back air is literally better lol
Joker can and does most of the time the same thing and nobody cares lmao. Bair spam is not unique to steve
Come on man there isn't just that in the video (sry 4 misunderstanding if it is Second degre)
It's only a matter of time until the FGC mains realise Steve is the real best shoto in the game.
What's means shoto?
Leave it up to Riddles to make a broken character look even more broken.
Them combos are crazy, he pulling straight kayuza combos out of steves ass.
Acola, Onin, Yonni and Rockman: Let us introduce ourselves.
Yeah.. I tried Steve as well for the first time for a whole day and I wasn't on the train that Steve is *that* op but after just toying with him he's really..really dumb, he does too much too easily is the problem. Like if the stuff he did was legit hard it would be fine, or more fine.
I main Seph so I never had much of a problem against him.
Sephiroth is so good but I can seem to get him down as Ken. When I play as Seph I clown on Kens so idk lmao
Yeah as a Steve main, I still struggle against Sephiroth because of constantly being outranged by his sword.
I have beaten Steve in a one vs one tournament online with bowser jr and my final opponent was an incenoroar either he would get beaten by Steve or me. The tournament had only two stocks and my opponent got diamond picaxe on his last stock and I still beat him.
Steve is no way the easiest in the game, Pyra/Mythra you can just mash unpunished where Steve you need to mash AND mine. Two braincells instead of one.
I never thought of that
Pyra Mythra so much easier than Steve
Typical idiotic Smash fan quote.
also G&W exists
Don't forget build. That's a third brain cell. Crafting is the fourth one. Flying is the fifth one
9:03 that player sure does live by his name
Now, let's see Steve mains pick up Kazuya and Terry 🤣🙌🏼 I wanna see them getting demolished!
Acola plays Kazuya tho
Jokes on you I’m a Steve main and I play both Kazuya and Terry 🤣
(I may or may not have already learned Terry decently, I just don't play as fluently as with Steve lol.)
Truly, the nightmare timeline.
Steve players trying to get creative mode.
If they just made it so Steve could only place blocks on the ground he’d be so much less broken and more accurate to the game. If he’s in smash 6 whenever they comes out I hope that’s a change they’ll make along with some other stuff
Yeah like what if you could only place blocks offstage if you made some sort of bridge of blocks that start at the stage and go to the block limit, so you can’t just place a block anywhere and make it more canonically accurate
Steve can place blocks in mid air. Thats also lore accurate. Fucks sake they implemented diet speed bridging
@@hwanniggles187 He can't place blocks in mid air without placing it adjacent to another block like he can in Smash.
And lost mats on death
That wouldn't be fun on custom stages
IT WAS SAID THAT YOU WOULD DESTROY THE STEVE MAINS, NOT JOIN THEM
He was shown destroying one steve main. That Steve put up as good of a fight as anyone else lol
Tbf, a player as good as Riddles could pick up literally any character and dust people on unranked, this isn't unique to Steve.
Especially with the low skill ceiling of many characters, "Steve is easy" isn't really an argument.
What character has such kill power with such easy combos though..?
This was Microsoft's condition for sharing the Minecraft license with Sakurai.
This is one of the best smash videos I’ve watched in a while
0:28 insane combo game
Never ask a steve main their results before October of 2021
I lost one tournament and won in a team tourney
Not even kidding, Riddles would probably be the best Steve player if he chose to main them
Riddles learning curve is insane, and steve's learning curve is insane. Match made in heaven
Steve is such an interesting character to me (not sarcasm). He’s got a lot of technical stuff that you need to know to be good, but the moment you know that technical stuff, his game plan becomes the most simple and glue-eating strategy in the game. Fascinating how that worked out
I hate to say it…but it makes me wanna play steve
I think poppt1 said it very well. He has a learning curve to him, but after you hit that curve, brain shuts off
And dude, on some maps, you just place a tnt above you and say "approach me if you dare"
I’ve been a Steve main since he came out and I’ve had so much fun playing him. He does have some bullshit but the more technical stuff like NIL’s and TBC is so cool to pull off. broken character tho.
@@Pyronic_ yeah the NILS are the only thing I find about him that are really hard but yeah he gets away with a bit too much easy bs imo.
his reactions were just like mine once i learned steve combos. Like bro its not even fair, you do like one interaction and its 90 % lmao
6:38; Why does he have the same face Leffen has when he's playing Melee, while playing against a Ganon.☠
He wanted the JV4
That was such a good video. Your Steve is absolutely insane
I dont care what it takes for my man riddles to win tournaments!
8:53 Only time I feel sorry for a Byleth rage quitting lmfao
Your Steve is genuinely very entertaining!
It would be hilarious if Riddles had a mod for Steve that was just a Minecraft skin of Terry to mess with people.
Honestly, if riddles learns NILS and other big Steve combos, it's game over bruh 🗿
The only reason I main Steve is because I got smash about a month before he was revealed so the only character from a game that I played was just Mario and Link and I wanted to play another character from a game I enjoyed so I got Steve.
The fox at 7:40 definitely uninstalled smash
4:42 Riddles: shakes head no
Riddles a few seconds later: nods
7:40 High level gameplay
Now you know how tekken players feel when leroy came out in season 3, best character in the game by far a tier of his own, it's basically a boss character, and super easy
6 Leroy in top 8 EVO japan btw, Knee and arslan beat by a random leroy.
And the winner of this EVO : BOOK said at the end "Just pick leroy" he was a jin main.
YES! HE'S BECOMING AN ENDERMAIN!
This video is evolution material for Steve mains.
Wow I actually feel bad for these players.
"A fight is about who is left standing. Nothing else."
"Do it".... "Let the hate flow through you." Take it to tournament and destroy everyone and everything.
Finally dropping top tier Kazuya for low tier Steve. You have my respect Riddles! 🙌💙
Rewatching the vid 8 months later when Steve is the most broken character in smash ever 😂
If you mash A during Elytra, you get extra height when going vetical. I think Esam was the one to find it
3:06 Wolf called he wants his BAir back
This intro was actually goated
Ig all we need now is a win streak counter that casually goes to infinity
Time for the 1st places to rain on in
Steve carries dubiously skilled players at every level of gameplay
Bro stopped the power geyser but did block
Riddle. All u need to know is up smash after escape from the minecart. Always works
11:11 "what if we touched minecarts on small battlefield" LMAO
Now you have to play Nairo with your Steve
It has begun.
Ive been waiting for this
i would actually love to see you main him competitively just to send a message. these steve mains aren't even trying!
legendary tier intro
congrats on picking up steve fox riddles! thank you for representing us british folk :)
When is Riddles gonna understand that Donkey Kong is superior to every other character?
Riddles. I'm begging you. Main steve for a few tournaments. Introduce a little chaos. :)
nil is so easy on box i’m currently learning and it’s great haha
I hope every pro picks up steve just to prove the point that he needs to get banned or nerfed
I legitimately hope they do. I'm sick of pros with these whack ass takes but no one wants to capitalize on it. "X is SS tier and needs banned" is a much more valid argument if they swap and produce results.
Yo riddles did you ever play jet set radio future?? Omg that track brought back crazy memories! Great game
The build down, hit with axe strategy is banned in tournaments for being so OP
bew haircut is cleeean
This is insanely funny
Oh hell nah i dont want you to main steve😭😭😭😭
thats right. cry. see if it helps
You’re right he should main Alex >:)
this is just 14 minutes of pure irrefutable evidence
Riddles got the hair on fleek tho
I can't believe he beat a top tier like little mac with the low tier Steve
XD
Might as well change that Kazuya “Tuh” sound effect to Steve’s original “UHH” sound when you swear 😂
Good idea but if he does it, in my opinion, that's not the Riddles that I know. Riddles without Kazuya and Terry is an another Riddles. That's makes me sad just thinking about...
@@VincentNRV lol yeah completely understandable, I wouldn’t want him to change it either. I just thought it would be funny if he did it for just one video 😂
@Ran-D Beats oh I see XD yeah it would be really funny 😂
I just hope that the Steve counterplay gets developed, I really don't want Steve banned.
So nerf him. Take a ay half of his bs options and make him lighter.
@@austinroccaro2219 that's not gonna happen
@@sebastianandres6802 than you have to ban Steve from tournaments. Either ban him or nerf him.
@@austinroccaro2219 that’s clearly not gonna happen. There will be no more patches in Ultimate.

What are the controller binders you use for Steve
Your great at steve.
imagine he wins a major w steve
came for the terry/kaz. stayed for the Steve...
That little Mac was standing on air at 5:07
As an X Ganon main, that was painful to watch.
You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain...
That intro was goat
4:10 :O i played against that fox online today!
I love how herobrine is on the thumbnail lol
Steve is so hype ngl 😍
This is great. Hoping you'll win the next major so we can get this character banned.
That’s what I’m saying everyone needs to pick up this character so he can officially get banned
Bruh
typical comp players 🥱
Learn the matchup, crybaby
Everyone say that steve is busted but he need to mine a resource too
If his resource ran out he will have hard time
So steve is a fair character.
present: still plays terry and kazuya
Maybe the new Phantom MLG tech will have him come back to Steve.
As a game developer, I could tell Steve would break the game from the Sakurai presents.
@Joshua Suh He’s been out for two years and only now he’s dominating tournaments??? I don’t remember hearing about steve dominating tournaments before then. Also I’m pretty sure MKleo said that he himself didn’t know the matchup.
Does someone know the name of the last song? from the terry vs ness game
Hey is the custom balance in ultimate worth using? What if instead of banning a character we custom balanced them?
they dont even remember the option is there.
Lol
He would be more broken every character would get comboed way worse
How?
Bro it's funny how he says he is gonna main Steve and next 2 months he wins a whole major tournament
love the guilty gear music
Well I mean, I thought it was a Tekken joke, so like steve fox, but well, it's real. You got me into terry, but like, everyone drops their characters for steve, so I guess I will leave Terry for steve. Give it a shot
I one time beat a Steve player in quick play so bad with bowser jr that he killed his own final stock to avoid fighting me.
This game should just be called Steve bros now
your hair looks a lot better this way :)
