I dislike this one aspect of the the post analysis of win cons but its not the power scaling stuff. Its the point of physicality Having more range can be a benefit, and a liability. Sure Min Min can pepper him long range, but once Little Mac gets past the point of the punch, Min Min is basically tangled in her own arms and unable to defend. Little Mac is FAST, as shown from facing Piston Hondo who races a bullet train and is more skilled in his footwork, boxing footwork is regarded as among the best, if not the best in combat sports which which also would boost his movement to step in and swarm her, Effectively overwhelming Min Min to the point she'd be knocked out. So Min Min could hurt Little Mac when Little Mac can't, but so can Little Mac when shes all up in her face with hand combinations lmao Its how you use your own physicality to your advantage that actually matters and makes a difference, Mike Tyson is evidence of that. There's holes in this wincon and physicality won't make much of a difference unless its about weight
To be fair, the weaponry he's dealt with was a horse shoe on a string, not lasers, electrifying wrecking balls or combustible boomerangs. Not to mention the missiles, grenades, nunchucks, whips hammers, ancient poisonous tribal weaponry, the mini version of a mind controlling ki blast shooting super weapon etc that she could equip if they didn't just limit her to her default 3. Mac's faced a LOT of loons but it's... Relatively grounded looney lol.
Ty!!! Also love the fact they said “he fought donkey Kong!!! But we are gonna lowball this n say he’s not the moon punching monke with many adventures in its belt but instead we are dropping him to being at the same level of a simple gorilla!!!”
@@yunariumlovania4470 Yeah that bugged me too. For a VS series known for how literal it takes all information presented to it, I found it very weird they pulled back on this specifically.
It was really wholesome how after the fight, Min-Min served Little Mac some Ramen and a ticket to Mario and Megaman's tournament. I have a feeling that these 2 will be great friends.
Really appreciate the respect Little Mac is given. Would be too easy to be like "He's just a regular human who boxes, how boring", but no. Little Mac is an underdog who takes hits, dishes them back out, and nabs titles.
You really oversimplified the "Star Punch" mechanic. It's not as simple as "land three punches in a row without getting hit". If that were the case, there would be star punches every 20 seconds. You have to find the exact right moment to strike in order to get a star. Find a moment of vulnerability, or interrupt an attack at just the right time.
"You can speak english" might be my favorite joke in all of Smash Bracket, that's fucking gold. Great episode as usual, super excited for the next time!
i think little mac shouldve won. Stars are given when you attack in a specific opening or when you interrupt your opponents attack. Seeing how Min Min"s arms are disabled by punching them, that means that little mac could've just stayed back and gathered stars, and then make his way to punch the hell out of her. This guy also completely ignores the fact that little mac would just stay back and dodge since he is good at forming a strategy to be able to defeat min min. So what if she could kick or grab him, it doesnt mean that he can just punch her once really hard, instead of performing a combo. I think this guy has just underestimated little mac.
@@3clisp315 Thats because you are in the perspective of little Mac, who can perceive him better than we can. For example you basically said someone like the flash did not look like he was moving at lightspeed so hes not fast when they used a bullet time slo mo camera effect when he has screentime.
I don't think some people understand how busted DK is even without the moon feat. He is still considered relative in power to Bowser in every game they appear together in.
Awesome fight. I would like to say though, the “concrete breaking” maybe shouldn’t have qualified, at least from what I saw. It is already highly cracked, and it is in a competitive fighting arena *with a safety trampoline beneath* so it could easily be considered practical effects.
This was such a fun fight! Mac is a neat character in that he's the closest equivalent to a normal human in the Smash Ring. I'm kinda surprised he didn't power up using Giga Mac though.
Giga Mac's less of a power up then you'd think. While it certainly beefs up power, it provides no additional defense and makes you a sitting target. Mac's advantage in this matchup is his speed to close the gap, Giga Mac would get absolutely tossed...perhaps literally, which in turn powers up whatever Arm MinMin has on her left.
@@maxspecs Besides MinMin fights the likes of Master Mummy and Max Brass, Giga Mac wouldn't be much different, if anything just a disadvantage. Though to be fair i didnt take the actual power scaling aspect of the video seriously anyway. But it was still good fun
After several fights decided by obscenely massive feats, brutal hax and skills, or plain insta-win options, this was a much appreciated break! Little Mac and Min-Min were never going to get far in this tournament but they've delivered an extremely satisfying fight! Cheers to the Bracket's Underdogs!
First of all, sick animation with very emotional Doc Luis lines. Second of all (SPOILERS) I'm very excited to see Mario vs Mega Man be remade And lastly, it makes me quite happy to see the Versus Fighter team come back, with Mac and Min Min possibly enjoying. Now I want more drunk Terry and Ken
I feel like Mac wasn't really done that well. Notably no Giga Mac and I feel like DK scaling could be possible as there has been many Mario cameos in the Punch-Out games (Characters in the crowd arcade, Mario Ref in Nes, and well, DK) there has also been Punch-Out references in Mario games (Luigi's Mansion 3 poster, and if I wanna be *THAT* guy, the Mario Movie restaurant) Call it my Punch-Out bias but I really thought Mac could've done it. But still, I feel like Mac was good on the personality side of things, the underdog that never gives up. Great job to everyone who worked on this and excited for the matches to come!
Bro literally almost all Nintendo Big Games have references And Cameos to other Games. Literally on Final Fantasy 1 you can Find Link's Tomb. Does that Makes TLOZ and Final Fantasy 1 the same World? They don’t count at all.
Isn’t giga mac not canon. I only played the first punch out game. As for donkey Kong yeah that’s fair seeing as you literally fight him as a boss. Sure they wouldn’t count the moon punch with their rules but it could still provide better calculations for his strength using Donkey Kongs durability.
@@casualgamer3900(espero que youtube te traduzca esto) giga mac si aparece en el punch out de wii. Sin embargo solo en el modo enfrentamiento (2 jugadores) asi que podria decirse que si es canon ya que asomo fuera de smash. Pero parece algo muy surrealista para el mundo de punch out pues es como algun tipo de transformación. Gana mucha fuerza sin embargo pierde movilidad
I have to strongly disagree especially when mac himself defeated Donkey Kong. Remember that DK punched out moon of orbit into earth surface, defeated Karate, Ninja, Sumo Kong, and Ghastly Kong. Do note that Dk himself can punch rapidly when fighting these enemies. So let us not forget that DK was not KO when was blasted to moon's orbit when show Mac strength to KO DK himself to be impressive. MIN MIN in the other may need few seconds to recover whenever throwing physical attack and further they are, longer require to be ready to use again. So strength, defense, reflex, goes to mac while MIN MIN gets range and weapons edge.
They mention Donkey Kong punching moon out of orbit is questionable for not displaying this feat with Mac. However, even if did DK use about half his strength during fight with Mac is still impressive compare what Min-Min had endured. Do note that Nintendo tend to be flexible about Mario and DK games when come to story telling such as current Dk kidnap Pauline several times despite being good guy, DK was kidnap by King KROOL despite DK should be able break free from cage, and so forth. Heck Mario is even in punch out game which he has history of various job careers (soldier in Vietnam, demolition, plumber, carpenter, and etc). So Mac still should of won.
Another awesome episode as usual. I love the animation, Could really see both fighters giving it their all Even when theey were exhausted. Excellent as alwaays. And I'm excitted for pikmin vs Piranha plant. Although II''m not sure with how canonically small olimar is How much off a fight itt will end up being. Still looking forward to it
Yeah I’m curious to see how they’ll handle Olimar’s size, and if Pirahna Plant even has an official height set by Nintendo. The next episode is gonna be pretty goofy and interesting! #TeamPikmin!
Olimar is 0.75 inches tall, and pirhrana plant is as tall as Mario; 5 foot 1. Most pikmin bosses are around 1-2 feet tall. Sorry pikmin fans, but plant is too big.
This animation is absolutely fire. As a martial enthusiast this is actually incredible. The segments add realism which makes this battle so much more amazing!
Cool analysis and animation i was so happy hearing about one of my favorite games ever: Punch- out for the Wii. I expected little Mac to lose but damn he got a raw deal. No giga mac, no speed scaling to Piston hondo because its not comparable, no ability to potentially one-shot anyone, no self and inbetween round healing, no power assumptions and no Donkey Kong scaling. Also pretty sure star-punches work differently in the nes and arcade versions of punch-out. He would probably still lose but damn they took most of his best potential feats away from him.
If they gave little mac the donkey kong scaling (durability as in tanking hits from donkey kong) and strength wise (hurting and knocking out donkey kong) then he would scale higher than minmin in almost all departments and just had to get up close to minmin and land a few blows and win. Little mac got no feats in this and lost because of it.
Didn’t Mac fight Aran Ryan who used a “weapon” and fought unconventionally, also didn’t he fight someone who kicked in another game or was it a different character.
@thedodgeviperacr5935 Yeah, Aran ryan put horse shoes inside his gloves, and i remember that someone in the snes punch out game would jump off the rope and kick you
The most impressive feat mac actually did was being able to knock out bear hugger who was 440 pounds in a single hit that would require over a thousand pounds of force to achieve since he was only 107 pounds
Plus, he managed to stay in the ring despite being under-age for professional boxing and wearing a shirt in World Championship rings. Being allowed to be a participant in matches despite his very presence being an infraction even if he dressed properly for the occasion, which he never does, meaning his presence is two infractions, has to count for _something._
As a punchout enjoyer, this was such a fun episode to watch! Love the voices, the actors here clearly gave it their all, same to the animators and the music composition.
I am heavily disappointed at the blatant bias in favor of Min Min was here. The final trade was really breaking character for Mac. He is known for dodging attacks, why would he try to outpower a clearly powerful attack? Not to mention the feats that were discounted, misinformation, outright pulling the "Not Canon lol" card on both the DK fight AND Giga Mac, and even leaving feats out. This REEKS of bias like Death Battle.
Ok explain how Giga-Mac, a Charather that only appears on a non-story mode by the use of a cheatcode and DK, whose Punch takes Moons into the Orbit but Somehow little mac can survive when he Gets greatly hurt by friggin Building-level punchs of Sandman , are Canon???😂😂😂 And Honestly don’t know where did you even pull the missinformation thing off. If you’re so expert then why don’t you Make your own "fair" analysis?lol.
@@jesusmen6308 we can also make the argument he’s gotten a lot stronger by that point but I haven’t played punch out wii in a while so I wouldn’t remember that tbh.
I got hit with a wave of nostalgia with that “where’s my water” reference, I liked both analyses. The fight felt very natural considering the people Mac has fought before. And the next time seems like it will be a joke fight because like how do you scale a piranha plant, or it will be like a pikmin boss. I enjoyed the episode
Little Mac wouldnt make it past round 2, but yall really didnt even want him to win. He scales to Donkey Kong. Take any feat you have of DK's strength and give it to Mac. Also Giga Mac is canon. Also he would do much better fighting the arms than you would think. He has fought matches against profesional kickboxers, and people using arm like weapons. Meanwhile MinMin has 0 experience against a little guy who gets in close to beat the shit out of you
I'm not sure I agree with this outcome. Fighting and defeating opponents who are faster and stronger than Little Mac through strategy is his entire modus operandi. He even defeats boxers who do things that are otherwise cheating, such as Great Tiger teleporting or King Hippo using a manhole to cover himself. This isn't to say he'd get far in the tournament or anything, but I still think he was cut short.
While I’m trying not to be salty, I feel like this was a little odd of a fight. Min Min can really only attack in one direction, just from different angles. Half of Mac’s entire thing is the fact that he can see you do a move once and then he’ll find a way around it every time on top of smothering you with unorthodox rushes. It just feels like half the time he kind of stood there after he punches and lets an attack hit him. It just doesn’t properly feel like Little Mac. Especially a bit at the end, Mac has literally no reason to challenge the megawatt and his style is based almost exclusively around weaving strikes and punishing bad decisions.
We need a Rematch!!! Little Mac has taken on people with weird gimmicks from other fighters before with kicks and weapons. E.g Dragon Chan had kicks, Hit Quarlow had a staff and Aran Ryan used a flail against him. And Little Mac beat them all! How does this make any sense?
Aran Ryan also did clinches in his Super Punch Out fight, that may not have been very advanced grappling but he still understands the concept of it and how to defend it
Little Mac went against Soda Popinski who was able to pull a truck with his teeth. And Mr Sandman who broke down an entire building block. And beat Hondo Piston, who at top speed kept up with a a Japanese bullet train. Also his star punch may be able to reach up to mach 4.
I gotta say the story aspect really makes me smile, bc its them just hanging out or maybe working together while the smash bracket rallies on. I can't wait to see how this develops, good show guys, much love
I will also say, Little Mac has fought the unpredictable from people who utilize magic to create more versions of themselves, to people who kick, to people who use a flail, to people who even grapple. He's fought people that are as fast as a bullet train and has fought people who can punch apart brick buildings and launch bulls up into the clouds. I dunno, the analysis for this episode just felt lazy.
Not to mention the fact that they completely forgot about giga Mac. It's really weird because if they implemented giga Mac it wouldn't have even been close imo
You literally didn’t put attention to the analysis then, as it was literally specified that Min-Min also had to deal with tricky opponents one of those also teleports,also break concrete with a Single punch and Use actual potencially LETHAL weaponry and also have all kinds of gimmicks in their fighting styles. It’s all layed out and perfectly understood. Min-Min simply had Little Mac out-classed here fair and square. For me,I said It was Impressive enough how much of a Fight despite it that Humougous difference in Range and versatility.
@@jesusmen6308 I'm aware but there's been instances where they implement stuff into characters even tho it doesn't make sense like adding all links abilities into one but they still do it anyways so I don't think that's the reason.
@@elitendo226 well I don't know about that one admitely but if all those skills still are things Link Canonically did then I aaid it’s still more valid. No to mention Giga Mac is literally Featless as he doesn't appear in the story. For all we know he os just a More strong but sluggish form of Little Mac that would actually just be more of a hidrance. There's nothing to scale Giga Mac to.
I would have thought that Mac scaled to piston Honda, who is fast enough to run along side a bullet train, therefore react to Min Mins attacks, and assuming on the scaling, he can take on the likes of DK and Sandman, one was a champion, the other knocked the moon out of or orbit, and he is capable of taking down every fighter in punch out in 1 punch of you can meet the requirements, and with the likes of giga Mac, I would have thought Mac took this dub
Mac doesn't, in fact, scale To Honda in MOVEMENT speed. At least not OUTSIDE the Ring. He neither can Scale to Dokey Kong Country DK for to simple Facts: 1. The DK On punch out never shows a similar feat on Strength 2.by the Time DK appears on Punch out, he...still hadnt peformed said Moon feat. Giga Mac also isn’t Canon because he doesn't appear anywhere on the Story and doesn't even have feats to speak of anyways. Lastly the Conditions are a Gameplay Feature and Challenge. Nothing indicates that little Mac Canonically use them to One-shot his opponents in the story of the Game.
@@jesusmen6308 Mac still beats Donkey Kong who scales relatively to Bowser according to every game in existence where they are both playable with Bowser barely edging him out in strength. Even if you completely ignore the moon feat or anything after Punch Out Wii, there's not a single character in Arms that could beat DK or Bowser. Newer feats just make Mac look more impressive because there's never been any sort of improvement implied with these other characters like Bowser and DK. Mario isn't Dragon Ball where everybody just magically moves up a tier in strength every arc/game lol.
@@RobbertRobbert12345 Nope,you got it all wrong. When Feats directly contradict themselves they're rendered invalid. By your Logic Mr. Sandman is relative to DK since he can dish out Similar damage to Mac,even when his best shown feat he is only building level. Worse yet,Glass Joe would be at bare Minimum multi-continental since he can Damage and KO Mac who by your logic can take and survive DK's Moon-level punches. You do realize how utterly nonsensical that sounds right? You’re embarrassing yourself dude.
So what is this DK just some fraud he’s the real DK and other Mario references have been in punch out here’s what I think is wrong with this yes DK hasn’t shown much feats in the punch out games but it’s still DK and Mac can beat him even without getting hit even if he’s not the real DK h still has scaling like him and it’s never been said outright that it’s not the real DK so even if it isn’t all Min Min has shown is destroying some damaged ground made out of some stone even someone like the final boss for the Wii U game has destroyed buildings with his boxing gloves Mac is also able to take on so many tactics just look at all his opponents across games and if we scale him to even DK because he beats him than strength and speed go to Mac even maybe one shots Min Min but even without that scale Mac has been in way more media and games and likely has more feats to go off and so,e we don’t even know about who knows he could possibly of fought someone stronger than Min Min by a landslide just with a lower scale Mac beats people who can destroy buildings because of some anger and can dodge attacks from people who can run at speeds as fast as a bullet train and if you don’t think that they would go at that speed why wouldn’t they fighting against someone as powerful as Little Mac one of Nintendo’s major characters what I think and you can disagree is that Min Min is a bit over scaled here she has such little feats in her game that it took like a minute to say compared to Macs like rest of the video so even with little scale for Mac and high scale for Min Min Mac would have trouble but if we scale them both fairly than Min Min is just beat in every category except reach and that’s not enough to give her a win also even with such a low scale for Mac he has Giga Mac which should be cannon being in a cannon game and is able to be used against friends in matches so it’s a real thing that’s pretty stupid not to believe in so don’t be rude to other people about this stuff when literally Min Min has one video game to go off and Mac has for sure more than like 15 games and has fought so many opponents including the literal DK
Yooo this was my first time watching this channel and I’ve gotta say. This was pretty awesome. I love the true analysis of the feats of the characters. Also the animation was awesome. It was like something genuinely out of a game and I loved that. Not to mention the music. I’m a guy that really loves music and it’s core concepts and I absolutely LOVED how Skye T. combined the Punch Out Wii Title Theme, Ramen Bowl and the classic Punch Out Theme. It really made this entire video incredible. I’ll definitely be sticking around after seeing this.
Severely underrated channel, I just found it and I did NOT expect it to be so in depth, not only talking about both characters' stats and stories, but giving a whole animation for the fight, love it!
Plus, he has beaten dudes who as they said, can punch bulls into space, and turned an entire brick building into a bunch of rubble and dust with only his FISTS, moreover, he's beaten Bald Bull who was revealed to be able to shrug off a hit from a bull like it was nothing, and Piston Hondo who is no doubt the fastest human alive in the Punch Out universe. Honorable mentions go to Soda Popinski who was drinking experimental soda which made him so strong he could pull a truck with his teeth, and Bear Hugger who is 400+ pounds, proving that Mac can succeed at punching miles outside of his weight class. Sorry for the lengthy comment, I'm a little mad at just how much they downplayed Mac's feats here
@@artcade9701 I heard that Luigi vs Simon Belmont is gonna be Luigi’s match on Smash Bracket. How about you? What rumors have you heard about Luigi or any Mario characters match ups are gonna be on Smash Bracket.
I'd like to argue that Little Mac specializes in any adversity where he's at a disadvantage, it's a huge part of who he is. Although every match up he plays in his games seems to have the advantage he always finds a way to prevail in the end. Reach might be an advantage for Min Min from a distance, but if Little Mac was up in her face, Min Min's arms would be too long to defend herself.
Mac would certainly be at his best up close but that isn't a lopsided advantage against a mixed martial fighter like Min-Min, seeing as Mac has little-to no experience dealing with kicks or grapples. Though regrettably, it wouldn't even matter since he can't meaningfully damage Min-Min or survive any good hits from her.
ARMS characters can retract them to normal length whenever they want as long as they got the mask, which helps them control the ability. No loss of strength either, plus she's a martial artist, them legs can deflect lasers lol. Getting close wouldn't help
@@finaldusk1821he fought a kickboxer before, and min-Min can only do that in the air. He's also dealt with clinchers before. He knows how to counter both kicks and grapples.
Doc Louis is and forever will be the best hype man, and you *CANNOT* change my mind. I love how he also makes comments DURING the second round. It shows how much he sees that in or out of the ring, Mac will always be his student, and will always support him. In fact, they share a father and son relationship in my opinion.
Man. I thought Mac would win his first fight even when I thought his first match was gonna be Wii-Fit. Well, great match either way. Also me and Mac were both surprised by the fact that Min Min spoke English. I love Mac's reaction. Can't wait for the next fight. PS: I generally didn’t know Seyonara is Japenese and even looked it up to my surprise. Don't know why I feel like someone told me this already.
There's this little things called "Telegraphing"... the Dragon lasers are not instant, they need to charge up, which undermines the idea of them being as fast light.
This fight was blatantly rigged, from the discounts to the conveniently left out feats, to the post fight reasoning for Min Min's win. Even ignoring a feat that was literally mentioned! It's like the creator was told to say that he wanted Min Min to win without saying it.
Ok I don’t agree with this for 2 reasons 1. Mac Scales to DK who can punch the moon out of orbit 2. He’s fought characters with reach before and similar abilities to min min like title defense Aron Ryan who is literally whipping a boxing glove in macs face Also 3rd reason I thought I bring up is Mac is used to being at a disadvantage and would probably figure out min mins weakness with her arms going limp after a few good punches and leave her open
i don't disagree with the outcome i just personally think what you don't consider as feats for mac is kinda dumb you have to consider those as feats since they happened and you don't even need to consider donkey kong if you want he still fought and beat mr sand man who destroyed a building with his bare hands he also fought people that have both used weapons and kicks and just comparing great tiger's speed feat but not piston hondo's is lazy in my opinion if piston hundo can keep up with a bullet train and mac can stand toe to toe with him he should have a automatically better speed feat than 30 miles the thing is i don't disagree i feel like both have a good shot i do think mac can't really get in for a good punch but if he does i mean if you count the dk feats then he should destroy her in strength and endurance but if you don't use that then yeah min min probably wins. anyways this was a great battle i just think the research could have been done a bit better. keep up the great work guys
What’s the source for Min Min’s attacks being 14mph and 70mph in rush mode? I might just not be as familiar with ARMS, but I’m pretty sure they don’t have like definite stats like that unless you’re using pixel measurements
He probably calculated how many frames it takes for min min to throw a punch, and then translated it to how many punches she can hit per 1 second and then multiplied it to get the final number or something.
@@smugmcgbug usually from 5’10 to 6’6, though one has a height of ?’?? Though he does tape a manhole to his stomach at one point, showing he’s just over 3 manholes tall By taking the diameter of an American manhole by going outside and doing exactly that, he looks to also be about 6’6
I feel like little mac beating donkey kong provides untouches potential, like donkey kong was able to punch so fast it ignited the air and caused it to explode, so you could technically take all of donkey kongs feat, and since little mac can beat him, but make little mac at least relative, though idk exactly how strong donkey kong is, and if he'd be able to beat min min
@@gameuniverse5973he was able to pull it after only using one of his doped sodas which he drank multiple of in there fight, also it was no ordinary truck it was an armored truck.
Huh, so looking at the “next time on the smash bracket” part, it looks like Olimar & Alph won’t be fighting to see which named costume represents their character slot?
I really loved this fight voice acting and animation and analysis overall 9/10 for me.I just wished that there was a better explanation on why the donkey kong fight doesn't count as a feat for Little Mac when it honestly could have been a Major advantage to Little Mac.
Really excited to see my MAN Olimar next time. Kinda thinking he may be, murdered, since, size, but still. Also not sure if it's the best idea to do the matchup quite yet considering Pikmin 4 is on the horizon
Remember that they count stuff from gameplay too, and in Pikmin 2 Olimar can be crushed by boulders and still survive (confirming that the space suit is also very resistant) And in the Pikmin shorts the white Pikmin being able to melt metal with their acid seems very helpfull too Also ik Pikmin 1 Olimar was able to punch through boulders and break them but that was due to a glitch but it would be funny if they counted that lol
@@McRoni51 True... and some good use of bomb rocks and Olimar's adaptability could give them a leg up Just Not sure if Olimar could do much if the Piranha Plant just, y'know, ate him, removing most of his ability to fight and making the plant win.
The charactisation for Mac and Min Min honestly felt really weird imo, especially Mac. I kind of get wanting to give him a more accurate accent but it feels so strange, and he sounds 10 years older than he should. Also why does Mac care that Min Min isn't speaking English? Almost all of his opponents speak a different language, this is nothing new for him
Disagree. You cannot beat a man who runs miles everyday, in a pink jumpsuit, in any weather. He is the Mac! AND THATS WHY HES THE MPV THATS WHY HES THE GOAT!
Min-Min has wrecking ball arms with electricity, Sharp (frisbee things I forgot the name of), and dragon arms that can shoot beams. Little Mac can punch hard. I wonder who wins?
Ok, I think Mac should have won. He has dodged Piston Honda's punches, who can outrun a bullet train (as seen in his intro scene.) He has taken Mr. Sandman's punches, who destroyed a small building (as seen in his intro scene.) He has gone up against Aran Ryan, Great Tiger, Bear Hugger, King Hippo, Super Macho Man, all completely different fighters, and beat them. Min Min has no major speed feats, broken concrete (which he can take) and is yet another unorthodox style of fighting in kicks, grabs and punches on string.
Congrats on 30k subs and 100 videos! You guys totally deserve more subs than you have, and this episode is one reason why. I would love to say this was one of my favorite episodes in recent history. But the last two sb episodes managed to usurp my number 1 favorite TWICE In a row. You guys have really been on a roll recently. Cant wait for plant vs olimar. One of my most hyped for matches in this round.
All telegraphed, and Mac is known for his capability of dodging. And that's not everything that was left out either, wrong or discounted. This fight was blatantly rigged out of bias in favor of Min Min.
Min Min cant just switch out her arms when ever she wants. In the game they can only do it between rounds. it's not like the people in ARMS have access to a hammerspace. She didn't need another advantage over Mac.

This kinda sucks because I main both Mac and min min, so I don’t want either of them to lose
I dislike this one aspect of the the post analysis of win cons but its not the power scaling stuff.
Its the point of physicality
Having more range can be a benefit, and a liability. Sure Min Min can pepper him long range, but once Little Mac gets past the point of the punch, Min Min is basically tangled in her own arms and unable to defend.
Little Mac is FAST, as shown from facing Piston Hondo who races a bullet train and is more skilled in his footwork, boxing footwork is regarded as among the best, if not the best in combat sports which which also would boost his movement to step in and swarm her, Effectively overwhelming Min Min to the point she'd be knocked out.
So Min Min could hurt Little Mac when Little Mac can't, but so can Little Mac when shes all up in her face with hand combinations lmao
Its how you use your own physicality to your advantage that actually matters and makes a difference, Mike Tyson is evidence of that.
There's holes in this wincon and physicality won't make much of a difference unless its about weight
I feel like it’s impossible not to root for Mac. He’s just got that protagonist energy.
He could’ve been fighting against a full on god with no chance of winning and I’d still cheer him on

@@BabySeal84 I love ARMS too! Just wish it were Spring Man that got in, though.
Min Min: "He's so much faster than me!"
Also Min Min: gets put at 70 mph while Mac's at 33.
But that's only when Min Min is in Rush Mode, which takes a long time to charge. At Min Min's base speed, she is about half as fast as Little Mac.
Mac is really around 186mph so she got that right
i mean its not like he massively downplayed little mac in his analysis
"not only was she mixing it up with grabs, kicks, and lethal weaponry" Sir, Little Mac has gone up against all of that and more in the WVBA
To be fair, the weaponry he's dealt with was a horse shoe on a string, not lasers, electrifying wrecking balls or combustible boomerangs. Not to mention the missiles, grenades, nunchucks, whips hammers, ancient poisonous tribal weaponry, the mini version of a mind controlling ki blast shooting super weapon etc that she could equip if they didn't just limit her to her default 3.

Really appreciate the respect Little Mac is given.
Would be too easy to be like "He's just a regular human who boxes, how boring", but no. Little Mac is an underdog who takes hits, dishes them back out, and nabs titles.
thought that title said something else for a second
He beat Donkey Kong who can destroy meteors, tank meteors and punch the moon
If Donkey Kong were set at that standard and Little Mac and STILL beat him, then yeah, he should have beat the living tar out of Min Min.
@@benlundberg3811 exactly
@@benlundberg3811Thank you I am happy to know others think the same.
You really oversimplified the "Star Punch" mechanic. It's not as simple as "land three punches in a row without getting hit". If that were the case, there would be star punches every 20 seconds. You have to find the exact right moment to strike in order to get a star. Find a moment of vulnerability, or interrupt an attack at just the right time.
Given the stat gap, any punch mac would land would have to be star worthy by it's very nature
They probably just streamlined it for the animation.
i think they just did that for dramatic effect
11:22 Hey who’s that weirdo lol
Such an honor to appear in an official episode. Here’s to many more great fights!

@@parkerdarnell2913 heh
@@parkerdarnell2913 9:22 right 😏
i think little mac shouldve won. Stars are given when you attack in a specific opening or when you interrupt your opponents attack. Seeing how Min Min"s arms are disabled by punching them, that means that little mac could've just stayed back and gathered stars, and then make his way to punch the hell out of her. This guy also completely ignores the fact that little mac would just stay back and dodge since he is good at forming a strategy to be able to defeat min min. So what if she could kick or grab him, it doesnt mean that he can just punch her once really hard, instead of performing a combo. I think this guy has just underestimated little mac.
Min min has a gun. Just a straight up gun. What was mac meant to do? Who let my boy fight someone who has actual lethal weaponry?
@@Cheese_man539 outrun bullet lol
Pisto hondo can outrun bullet train while Mac still can compete with him
@@khamzic2890 as far as I can tell, he wasn’t moving at the speed of a bullet when he was fighting Mac
@@3clisp315 Thats because you are in the perspective of little Mac, who can perceive him better than we can.
For example you basically said someone like the flash did not look like he was moving at lightspeed so hes not fast when they used a bullet time slo mo camera effect when he has screentime.
my favorite part was when Min Min said “it’s Ramen time” and proceeded to lay out Little Mac
ramened all over the place
My favorite part was when Min Min said "Its ramening time" and Ramened all over the place
dang you weren’t joking
You know, if it wasn’t for the buildup it wouldn’t have been my least favorite part 😑
I THOUGHT YOU WERE JOKING
Why does he say that Min Min can break the stone slab with one punch when in game she can't even do that without rush or knocking someone into it?
Honesty, I do think Mac wins due to the DK fight alone. Hes got one hell of a punch and durability to beat DK.
I don't think some people understand how busted DK is even without the moon feat. He is still considered relative in power to Bowser in every game they appear together in.
I would agree, if that wasn’t a huge outlier compared to his other feats, also the question of whether or nots that’s canon is still very much there.
Okay, that ending scene was precious. Everyone hanging out at the ramen shop and just enjoying themselves.
Awesome fight. I would like to say though, the “concrete breaking” maybe shouldn’t have qualified, at least from what I saw. It is already highly cracked, and it is in a competitive fighting arena *with a safety trampoline beneath* so it could easily be considered practical effects.
Not only that, it doesn't break from being punched. It breaks when somebody falls on it. So, her strength feat was basically entirely misinformed.
Little Mac was able to take punches from Sandman, who literally punches so hard he is able to take out entire buildings with his swings.
You don't have to use your "noodle" to much to realize that this fight its a to "punch it out" of the park
Are You Secretely Boomstick?
I've spent a whole year trying to comprehend this comment
Still no luck
This was such a fun fight! Mac is a neat character in that he's the closest equivalent to a normal human in the Smash Ring. I'm kinda surprised he didn't power up using Giga Mac though.
Giga Mac's less of a power up then you'd think. While it certainly beefs up power, it provides no additional defense and makes you a sitting target. Mac's advantage in this matchup is his speed to close the gap, Giga Mac would get absolutely tossed...perhaps literally, which in turn powers up whatever Arm MinMin has on her left.
@@maxspecs Besides MinMin fights the likes of Master Mummy and Max Brass, Giga Mac wouldn't be much different, if anything just a disadvantage. Though to be fair i didnt take the actual power scaling aspect of the video seriously anyway. But it was still good fun
@@maxspecs after 3 hits minmin is open to hits, in that moment Giga Mac it's letal
“You’re taking homefield and steeling it like it’s homeplate.” This analogy is so good. What an excellent watch this was.
After several fights decided by obscenely massive feats, brutal hax and skills, or plain insta-win options, this was a much appreciated break!
Little Mac and Min-Min were never going to get far in this tournament but they've delivered an extremely satisfying fight!
Cheers to the Bracket's Underdogs!
At least its not Death Battle with shitty research and biased fights.
Little Mac is ironically one of the strongest smash bros characters only because of punch out wii
Min min seriously cheated SHE HAD LONG ARMS WHO COULD YOU BEAT THAT
Yeah neither of them we’re getting far.
First of all, sick animation with very emotional Doc Luis lines.
Second of all (SPOILERS) I'm very excited to see Mario vs Mega Man be remade
And lastly, it makes me quite happy to see the Versus Fighter team come back, with Mac and Min Min possibly enjoying. Now I want more drunk Terry and Ken
Please. PLEASE. Let Jumpman win. The last fight did him so damn dirty.
We'll see. It depends on how they interpret other versions of the character, like Mario and Luigi Mario and the different Megamans
@@JugularJohn agree
And Lucario just not having it with drunk Terry and Ken!
This was absolutely incredible! I love the animations and the analysis! Amazing video guys!!!
I feel like Mac wasn't really done that well. Notably no Giga Mac and I feel like DK scaling could be possible as there has been many Mario cameos in the Punch-Out games (Characters in the crowd arcade, Mario Ref in Nes, and well, DK) there has also been Punch-Out references in Mario games (Luigi's Mansion 3 poster, and if I wanna be *THAT* guy, the Mario Movie restaurant) Call it my Punch-Out bias but I really thought Mac could've done it. But still, I feel like Mac was good on the personality side of things, the underdog that never gives up. Great job to everyone who worked on this and excited for the matches to come!
Bros really *THAT* guy
Bro literally almost all Nintendo Big Games have references And Cameos to other Games. Literally on Final Fantasy 1 you can Find Link's Tomb. Does that Makes TLOZ and Final Fantasy 1 the same World? They don’t count at all.
Isn’t giga mac not canon.
I only played the first punch out game.
As for donkey Kong yeah that’s fair seeing as you literally fight him as a boss. Sure they wouldn’t count the moon punch with their rules but it could still provide better calculations for his strength using Donkey Kongs durability.
@@casualgamer3900(espero que youtube te traduzca esto) giga mac si aparece en el punch out de wii. Sin embargo solo en el modo enfrentamiento (2 jugadores) asi que podria decirse que si es canon ya que asomo fuera de smash. Pero parece algo muy surrealista para el mundo de punch out pues es como algun tipo de transformación. Gana mucha fuerza sin embargo pierde movilidad
@@chaosoulBLUE Why is the youtube translator so much better than google translate lol
I have to strongly disagree especially when mac himself defeated Donkey Kong. Remember that DK punched out moon of orbit into earth surface, defeated Karate, Ninja, Sumo Kong, and Ghastly Kong. Do note that Dk himself can punch rapidly when fighting these enemies. So let us not forget that DK was not KO when was blasted to moon's orbit when show Mac strength to KO DK himself to be impressive.
MIN MIN in the other may need few seconds to recover whenever throwing physical attack and further they are, longer require to be ready to use again.
So strength, defense, reflex, goes to mac while MIN MIN gets range and weapons edge.
They explained in Mac’s analysis that Punch Out-canon DK isn’t the same as Mario-canon DK. That’s why Mac didn’t scale to the moon punch.
They mention Donkey Kong punching moon out of orbit is questionable for not displaying this feat with Mac. However, even if did DK use about half his strength during fight with Mac is still impressive compare what Min-Min had endured. Do note that Nintendo tend to be flexible about Mario and DK games when come to story telling such as current Dk kidnap Pauline several times despite being good guy, DK was kidnap by King KROOL despite DK should be able break free from cage, and so forth. Heck Mario is even in punch out game which he has history of various job careers (soldier in Vietnam, demolition, plumber, carpenter, and etc).
So Mac still should of won.
@@jazzjackson9817 Punch Out DK isn’t half as strong as Mario DK, or even a quarter. Mac doesn’t scale to any fraction of the moon punch
Another awesome episode as usual.
I love the animation, Could really see both fighters giving it their all Even when theey were exhausted. Excellent as alwaays.
And I'm excitted for pikmin vs Piranha plant. Although II''m not sure with how canonically small olimar is How much off a fight itt will end up being. Still looking forward to it
Glad to see you stopping by
I always love the battlefield to see a fight and facts it's really fun if you win or lose.
Yeah I’m curious to see how they’ll handle Olimar’s size, and if Pirahna Plant even has an official height set by Nintendo.
The next episode is gonna be pretty goofy and interesting!
#TeamPikmin!
@@FredChuck64 doesn't Mario have a canon height? They could probably scale Piranha Plant's height off Mario.
Olimar is 0.75 inches tall, and pirhrana plant is as tall as Mario; 5 foot 1. Most pikmin bosses are around 1-2 feet tall. Sorry pikmin fans, but plant is too big.
Having the Chinese-speaking actress for Min Min was so cool!! Great choreography and fight dialogue as well
Doc: “Show ‘em what’cha got Mac!”
Mac: Immediately gets BODIED by a piece of ramen 😂
Another great episode of the Smash Bracket Ink!
See now if Doc called him "Mac Baby" instead of just Mac it would be unfair due to the hype of Doc Louis buffing him.
This animation is absolutely fire. As a martial enthusiast this is actually incredible. The segments add realism which makes this battle so much more amazing!
Cool analysis and animation i was so happy hearing about one of my favorite games ever: Punch- out for the Wii.
I expected little Mac to lose but damn he got a raw deal.
No giga mac, no speed scaling to Piston hondo because its not comparable, no ability to potentially one-shot anyone, no self and inbetween round healing, no power assumptions and no Donkey Kong scaling. Also pretty sure star-punches work differently in the nes and arcade versions of punch-out. He would probably still lose but damn they took most of his best potential feats away from him.
If they gave little mac the donkey kong scaling (durability as in tanking hits from donkey kong) and strength wise (hurting and knocking out donkey kong) then he would scale higher than minmin in almost all departments and just had to get up close to minmin and land a few blows and win. Little mac got no feats in this and lost because of it.
Didn’t Mac fight Aran Ryan who used a “weapon” and fought unconventionally, also didn’t he fight someone who kicked in another game or was it a different character.
@@thedodgeviperacr5935 In the arcade version someone for sure kicked.
And yes Aran Ryan used a weapon.
@thedodgeviperacr5935 Yeah, Aran ryan put horse shoes inside his gloves, and i remember that someone in the snes punch out game would jump off the rope and kick you
@@eastonmurdock04 About that.
It happened, but Little Mac wasn't actually the character you control in Super Punch Out.
The most impressive feat mac actually did was being able to knock out bear hugger who was 440 pounds in a single hit that would require over a thousand pounds of force to achieve since he was only 107 pounds
Plus, he managed to stay in the ring despite being under-age for professional boxing and wearing a shirt in World Championship rings. Being allowed to be a participant in matches despite his very presence being an infraction even if he dressed properly for the occasion, which he never does, meaning his presence is two infractions, has to count for _something._
@@bubbykins4864 I think he might get a pass on the shirt as he is a minor and him being shirtless could be seen as underaged exposure
@@-rockmusiclover- Doesn't change the fact that he is a walking infraction.
Wait, sense when could Min-min break the concrete WITHOUT HITTING someone on to it?
I never knew how much I needed to see Ken and Terry drunkenly singing Judgement.
That was so cool! Great job to the Voice Actors AND the animators for making the whole animation feel alive : O!
That analysis was top-notch too!
As a punchout enjoyer, this was such a fun episode to watch! Love the voices, the actors here clearly gave it their all, same to the animators and the music composition.
I liked the part where she said "It's ramen time" and ramened all over the stage.
20:33 That’s a good reference to how Mario will fight mega man but also it’s cool that little Mac and min min will join Lucario, ryu, ken, and terry
I'm sorta hoping it's gonna be a massive event with multiple fighters rooting for either
@@Seddyhere That could be very cool but also who do you think sephiroth will face in round two.
@@KirbyStarAnimationit's been confirmed to be ganondorf
The second she said it’s ramen time and came all over I knew it was over
WHY YOU GOTTA WORD IT LIKE THAT?
I am heavily disappointed at the blatant bias in favor of Min Min was here. The final trade was really breaking character for Mac. He is known for dodging attacks, why would he try to outpower a clearly powerful attack? Not to mention the feats that were discounted, misinformation, outright pulling the "Not Canon lol" card on both the DK fight AND Giga Mac, and even leaving feats out. This REEKS of bias like Death Battle.
If the DK feat was counted, Min Min would stand no chance. Mac would be a moon buster.
Ok explain how Giga-Mac, a Charather that only appears on a non-story mode by the use of a cheatcode and DK, whose Punch takes Moons into the Orbit but Somehow little mac can survive when he Gets greatly hurt by friggin Building-level punchs of Sandman , are Canon???😂😂😂
And Honestly don’t know where did you even pull the missinformation thing off. If you’re so expert then why don’t you Make your own "fair" analysis?lol.
@@jesusmen6308that’s technically not cannon but DK is
@@PotatoWithALaptop if that is Canon then DK would get Debunked to Building Level as his punches are unable to Hurt Little Mac More than Sandman’s ☠️

Nice I got spoiled
I got hit with a wave of nostalgia with that “where’s my water” reference, I liked both analyses. The fight felt very natural considering the people Mac has fought before. And the next time seems like it will be a joke fight because like how do you scale a piranha plant, or it will be like a pikmin boss. I enjoyed the episode
Little Mac wouldnt make it past round 2, but yall really didnt even want him to win. He scales to Donkey Kong. Take any feat you have of DK's strength and give it to Mac. Also Giga Mac is canon.
Also he would do much better fighting the arms than you would think. He has fought matches against profesional kickboxers, and people using arm like weapons. Meanwhile MinMin has 0 experience against a little guy who gets in close to beat the shit out of you
Mac still was able to hurt Donkey Kong and proven to display power relative to his opponents.
this animation was fire, big W to the animators
I agree nice to see you here
I'm not sure I agree with this outcome. Fighting and defeating opponents who are faster and stronger than Little Mac through strategy is his entire modus operandi. He even defeats boxers who do things that are otherwise cheating, such as Great Tiger teleporting or King Hippo using a manhole to cover himself.
This isn't to say he'd get far in the tournament or anything, but I still think he was cut short.
While I’m trying not to be salty, I feel like this was a little odd of a fight. Min Min can really only attack in one direction, just from different angles. Half of Mac’s entire thing is the fact that he can see you do a move once and then he’ll find a way around it every time on top of smothering you with unorthodox rushes. It just feels like half the time he kind of stood there after he punches and lets an attack hit him. It just doesn’t properly feel like Little Mac. Especially a bit at the end, Mac has literally no reason to challenge the megawatt and his style is based almost exclusively around weaving strikes and punishing bad decisions.
Fr, Mac's entire style is defense and they just decided to throw that away
I knew this was the outcome but I was really rooting for mac
We need a Rematch!!! Little Mac has taken on people with weird gimmicks from other fighters before with kicks and weapons. E.g Dragon Chan had kicks, Hit Quarlow had a staff and Aran Ryan used a flail against him. And Little Mac beat them all! How does this make any sense?
Aran Ryan also did clinches in his Super Punch Out fight, that may not have been very advanced grappling but he still understands the concept of it and how to defend it
Little Mac went against Soda Popinski who was able to pull a truck with his teeth.
And Mr Sandman who broke down an entire building block.
And beat Hondo Piston, who at top speed kept up with a a Japanese bullet train.
Also his star punch may be able to reach up to mach 4.
Don't forget he punched hard enough to knock out Bald Bull, who was shown to be able to take a hit from an ACTUAL bull
The video turned out amazing!! Thank you so much for having me as Min Min!! ((o(^∇^)o))
Awesome work!!
You were great, friend! Good on ya for landing the role!
OH YEAH!!!
Great job, had me thinking they found actual unused voice files at first or something lol
How does the literal voice actor for this not have more likes? (Or a pin)
I gotta say the story aspect really makes me smile, bc its them just hanging out or maybe working together while the smash bracket rallies on. I can't wait to see how this develops, good show guys, much love
So glad you enjoy it!
I will also say, Little Mac has fought the unpredictable from people who utilize magic to create more versions of themselves, to people who kick, to people who use a flail, to people who even grapple. He's fought people that are as fast as a bullet train and has fought people who can punch apart brick buildings and launch bulls up into the clouds.
I dunno, the analysis for this episode just felt lazy.
Not to mention the fact that they completely forgot about giga Mac. It's really weird because if they implemented giga Mac it wouldn't have even been close imo
You literally didn’t put attention to the analysis then, as it was literally specified that Min-Min also had to deal with tricky opponents one of those also teleports,also break concrete with a Single punch and Use actual potencially LETHAL weaponry and also have all kinds of gimmicks in their fighting styles.
It’s all layed out and perfectly understood. Min-Min simply had Little Mac out-classed here fair and square.
For me,I said It was Impressive enough how much of a Fight despite it that Humougous difference in Range and versatility.
@@elitendo226giga Mac ain’t Canon tho.
@@jesusmen6308 I'm aware but there's been instances where they implement stuff into characters even tho it doesn't make sense like adding all links abilities into one but they still do it anyways so I don't think that's the reason.
@@elitendo226 well I don't know about that one admitely but if all those skills still are things Link Canonically did then I aaid it’s still more valid. No to mention Giga Mac is literally Featless as he doesn't appear in the story. For all we know he os just a More strong but sluggish form of Little Mac that would actually just be more of a hidrance. There's nothing to scale Giga Mac to.
Liking the non-lethal battle finishes. Just feels much more Smash Bros-y.
I would have thought that Mac scaled to piston Honda, who is fast enough to run along side a bullet train, therefore react to Min Mins attacks, and assuming on the scaling, he can take on the likes of DK and Sandman, one was a champion, the other knocked the moon out of or orbit, and he is capable of taking down every fighter in punch out in 1 punch of you can meet the requirements, and with the likes of giga Mac, I would have thought Mac took this dub
Mac doesn't, in fact, scale To Honda in MOVEMENT speed. At least not OUTSIDE the Ring. He neither can Scale to Dokey Kong Country DK for to simple Facts:
1. The DK On punch out never shows a similar feat on Strength
2.by the Time DK appears on Punch out, he...still hadnt peformed said Moon feat.
Giga Mac also isn’t Canon because he doesn't appear anywhere on the Story and doesn't even have feats to speak of anyways.
Lastly the Conditions are a Gameplay Feature and Challenge. Nothing indicates that little Mac Canonically use them to One-shot his opponents in the story of the Game.
@@jesusmen6308 fair point
@@jesusmen6308 Mac still beats Donkey Kong who scales relatively to Bowser according to every game in existence where they are both playable with Bowser barely edging him out in strength. Even if you completely ignore the moon feat or anything after Punch Out Wii, there's not a single character in Arms that could beat DK or Bowser. Newer feats just make Mac look more impressive because there's never been any sort of improvement implied with these other characters like Bowser and DK. Mario isn't Dragon Ball where everybody just magically moves up a tier in strength every arc/game lol.
@@RobbertRobbert12345 Nope,you got it all wrong. When Feats directly contradict themselves they're rendered invalid.
By your Logic Mr. Sandman is relative to DK since he can dish out Similar damage to Mac,even when his best shown feat he is only building level. Worse yet,Glass Joe would be at bare Minimum multi-continental since he can Damage and KO Mac who by your logic can take and survive DK's Moon-level punches.
You do realize how utterly nonsensical that sounds right? You’re embarrassing yourself dude.
So what is this DK just some fraud he’s the real DK and other Mario references have been in punch out here’s what I think is wrong with this yes DK hasn’t shown much feats in the punch out games but it’s still DK and Mac can beat him even without getting hit even if he’s not the real DK h still has scaling like him and it’s never been said outright that it’s not the real DK so even if it isn’t all Min Min has shown is destroying some damaged ground made out of some stone even someone like the final boss for the Wii U game has destroyed buildings with his boxing gloves Mac is also able to take on so many tactics just look at all his opponents across games and if we scale him to even DK because he beats him than strength and speed go to Mac even maybe one shots Min Min but even without that scale Mac has been in way more media and games and likely has more feats to go off and so,e we don’t even know about who knows he could possibly of fought someone stronger than Min Min by a landslide just with a lower scale Mac beats people who can destroy buildings because of some anger and can dodge attacks from people who can run at speeds as fast as a bullet train and if you don’t think that they would go at that speed why wouldn’t they fighting against someone as powerful as Little Mac one of Nintendo’s major characters what I think and you can disagree is that Min Min is a bit over scaled here she has such little feats in her game that it took like a minute to say compared to Macs like rest of the video so even with little scale for Mac and high scale for Min Min Mac would have trouble but if we scale them both fairly than Min Min is just beat in every category except reach and that’s not enough to give her a win also even with such a low scale for Mac he has Giga Mac which should be cannon being in a cannon game and is able to be used against friends in matches so it’s a real thing that’s pretty stupid not to believe in so don’t be rude to other people about this stuff when literally Min Min has one video game to go off and Mac has for sure more than like 15 games and has fought so many opponents including the literal DK
Yooo this was my first time watching this channel and I’ve gotta say. This was pretty awesome. I love the true analysis of the feats of the characters. Also the animation was awesome. It was like something genuinely out of a game and I loved that. Not to mention the music. I’m a guy that really loves music and it’s core concepts and I absolutely LOVED how Skye T. combined the Punch Out Wii Title Theme, Ramen Bowl and the classic Punch Out Theme. It really made this entire video incredible. I’ll definitely be sticking around after seeing this.

@@SmashBracket punch out wii mac solos
I just wanna take time to appreciate how much of a G Mac was. Man thought Min Min didn't speak English and still told her "May the best fighter win".
Severely underrated channel, I just found it and I did NOT expect it to be so in depth, not only talking about both characters' stats and stories, but giving a whole animation for the fight, love it!
I'm a little disappointed that my boi Mac lost, but all is forgiven because of that random duck king inclusion at the end
That was some good sluggin'. Feels slow in the middle, but the spritework is great and I was kinda rooting for both by the end of the fight.
16:35 "A single hit from Min Min would kill [Little Mac] almost immediately."
Also Little Mac: Tanks 21 hits from Min Min before losing.
Plus, he has beaten dudes who as they said, can punch bulls into space, and turned an entire brick building into a bunch of rubble and dust with only his FISTS, moreover, he's beaten Bald Bull who was revealed to be able to shrug off a hit from a bull like it was nothing, and Piston Hondo who is no doubt the fastest human alive in the Punch Out universe.
Honorable mentions go to Soda Popinski who was drinking experimental soda which made him so strong he could pull a truck with his teeth, and Bear Hugger who is 400+ pounds, proving that Mac can succeed at punching miles outside of his weight class.
Sorry for the lengthy comment, I'm a little mad at just how much they downplayed Mac's feats here

I do feel like they could give Mega Man some better feats, honestly-
I do.
This was… a surprisingly fun match up (couldn’t even tell who was the winner)
Am I the only one that has noticed that there has never been a bad versus animation that's boxing/wrestling themed?
I'd like to argue that Little Mac specializes in any adversity where he's at a disadvantage, it's a huge part of who he is. Although every match up he plays in his games seems to have the advantage he always finds a way to prevail in the end. Reach might be an advantage for Min Min from a distance, but if Little Mac was up in her face, Min Min's arms would be too long to defend herself.
Mac would certainly be at his best up close but that isn't a lopsided advantage against a mixed martial fighter like Min-Min, seeing as Mac has little-to no experience dealing with kicks or grapples.
Though regrettably, it wouldn't even matter since he can't meaningfully damage Min-Min or survive any good hits from her.
ARMS characters can retract them to normal length whenever they want as long as they got the mask, which helps them control the ability. No loss of strength either, plus she's a martial artist, them legs can deflect lasers lol. Getting close wouldn't help
@@finaldusk1821he fought a kickboxer before, and min-Min can only do that in the air. He's also dealt with clinchers before. He knows how to counter both kicks and grapples.
Doc Louis is and forever will be the best hype man, and you *CANNOT* change my mind. I love how he also makes comments DURING the second round. It shows how much he sees that in or out of the ring, Mac will always be his student, and will always support him. In fact, they share a father and son relationship in my opinion.
Man. I thought Mac would win his first fight even when I thought his first match was gonna be Wii-Fit. Well, great match either way. Also me and Mac were both surprised by the fact that Min Min spoke English. I love Mac's reaction. Can't wait for the next fight.
PS: I generally didn’t know Seyonara is Japenese and even looked it up to my surprise. Don't know why I feel like someone told me this already.

If the lasers in arms are seen as actual beams of light then rip mac that would make min min faster and have a good win con to just spam her dragons
The lasers have predictable shots, and in game, if the laser is already projecting out of the mouth and you're not out of it's way, it's hitting you.
There's this little things called "Telegraphing"... the Dragon lasers are not instant, they need to charge up, which undermines the idea of them being as fast light.

Gee I wonder who’s gonna win.
Feats* in plural.
This fight was blatantly rigged, from the discounts to the conveniently left out feats, to the post fight reasoning for Min Min's win. Even ignoring a feat that was literally mentioned! It's like the creator was told to say that he wanted Min Min to win without saying it.
Ok I don’t agree with this for 2 reasons
1. Mac Scales to DK who can punch the moon out of orbit
2. He’s fought characters with reach before and similar abilities to min min like title defense Aron Ryan who is literally whipping a boxing glove in macs face
Also 3rd reason I thought I bring up is Mac is used to being at a disadvantage and would probably figure out min mins weakness with her arms going limp after a few good punches and leave her open

Good ol sprite fight animation days of the internet of old. Great times.
I love it when Min-Min said "its ramen time" and then ramened all over Little Mac...
i don't disagree with the outcome i just personally think what you don't consider as feats for mac is kinda dumb you have to consider those as feats since they happened and you don't even need to consider donkey kong if you want he still fought and beat mr sand man who destroyed a building with his bare hands he also fought people that have both used weapons and kicks and just comparing great tiger's speed feat but not piston hondo's is lazy in my opinion if piston hundo can keep up with a bullet train and mac can stand toe to toe with him he should have a automatically better speed feat than 30 miles the thing is i don't disagree i feel like both have a good shot i do think mac can't really get in for a good punch but if he does i mean if you count the dk feats then he should destroy her in strength and endurance but if you don't use that then yeah min min probably wins. anyways this was a great battle i just think the research could have been done a bit better. keep up the great work guys
What’s the source for Min Min’s attacks being 14mph and 70mph in rush mode? I might just not be as familiar with ARMS, but I’m pretty sure they don’t have like definite stats like that unless you’re using pixel measurements
Quessing it probably by calcing how many punches they throw in the rush mode barrage attack
He probably calculated how many frames it takes for min min to throw a punch, and then translated it to how many punches she can hit per 1 second and then multiplied it to get the final number or something.
Please carry this series on its amazing.
0:20 Little Mac is 5’7”
Not 4’8”
Than how tall are Little Mac's opponents within the punch out series?
@@smugmcgbug usually from 5’10 to 6’6, though one has a height of ?’??
Though he does tape a manhole to his stomach at one point, showing he’s just over 3 manholes tall
By taking the diameter of an American manhole by going outside and doing exactly that, he looks to also be about 6’6
In Punch Out Wii Little Mac is 5’7”, but in Smash Bros he shrinks down to 4’8”
I feel like little mac beating donkey kong provides untouches potential, like donkey kong was able to punch so fast it ignited the air and caused it to explode, so you could technically take all of donkey kongs feat, and since little mac can beat him, but make little mac at least relative, though idk exactly how strong donkey kong is, and if he'd be able to beat min min
Let’s go, the ramen queen made the Mintendo noodle house proud.
They really just said "Let's just give it to Min Min anways"
You forgot soda popinski durability/straight scaling, and piston Hondo speed scaling.
I don't think pulling a truck is more impressive than sending a bull flying one punch
@@gameuniverse5973well he did use his teeth
@@gameuniverse5973he was able to pull it after only using one of his doped sodas which he drank multiple of in there fight, also it was no ordinary truck it was an armored truck.
@@RedMooshroom42 which makes it much more impressive..
Huh, so looking at the “next time on the smash bracket” part, it looks like Olimar & Alph won’t be fighting to see which named costume represents their character slot?
I really loved this fight voice acting and animation and analysis overall 9/10 for me.I just wished that there was a better explanation on why the donkey kong fight doesn't count as a feat for Little Mac when it honestly could have been a Major advantage to Little Mac.
Really excited to see my MAN Olimar next time.
Kinda thinking he may be, murdered, since, size, but still.
Also not sure if it's the best idea to do the matchup quite yet considering Pikmin 4 is on the horizon
Remember that they count stuff from gameplay too, and in Pikmin 2 Olimar can be crushed by boulders and still survive (confirming that the space suit is also very resistant)
And in the Pikmin shorts the white Pikmin being able to melt metal with their acid seems very helpfull too
Also ik Pikmin 1 Olimar was able to punch through boulders and break them but that was due to a glitch but it would be funny if they counted that lol
@@McRoni51 True... and some good use of bomb rocks and Olimar's adaptability could give them a leg up
Just Not sure if Olimar could do much if the Piranha Plant just, y'know, ate him, removing most of his ability to fight and making the plant win.
I didnt think i needed to see drunk terry but man do i love it
Ryu getting water without ice is pretty amusing
The charactisation for Mac and Min Min honestly felt really weird imo, especially Mac. I kind of get wanting to give him a more accurate accent but it feels so strange, and he sounds 10 years older than he should.
Also why does Mac care that Min Min isn't speaking English? Almost all of his opponents speak a different language, this is nothing new for him
Min min felt like a villain beating down Mac hard
@@gameuniverse5973but at least they give one good show
@coolgamerjaw8803 Giga Mac is not canon, it was only created for Smash.
@coolgamerjaw8803 Was the hulked out version in Wii? Because I don't remember him ever being in said game. Can you prove it?.
@@heyguysxd Min Min was speaking mandarin, not japanese
The "wait you can speak English" got me
Disagree. You cannot beat a man who runs miles everyday, in a pink jumpsuit, in any weather. He is the Mac! AND THATS WHY HES THE MPV THATS WHY HES THE GOAT!
Great job guys! This was a fun episode!
Min-Min has wrecking ball arms with electricity, Sharp (frisbee things I forgot the name of), and dragon arms that can shoot beams. Little Mac can punch hard. I wonder who wins?
Called it
@@Charafromthehitgameundertale99yes you did I thought little mac can win with giga mac
@coolgamerjaw8803 Giga Mac is not canon, it was only created for Smash.
@@toumabyakuya wrong. giga mac appeared in punch out’s multiplayer mode on Wii
@@mrinternet009 Can you prove it? Because I don't remember that in said game.
Now that was a fun fight with great animation, voice acting and bits of comedy. Great job!
Ok, I think Mac should have won.
He has dodged Piston Honda's punches, who can outrun a bullet train (as seen in his intro scene.)
He has taken Mr. Sandman's punches, who destroyed a small building (as seen in his intro scene.)
He has gone up against Aran Ryan, Great Tiger, Bear Hugger, King Hippo, Super Macho Man, all completely different fighters, and beat them.
Min Min has no major speed feats, broken concrete (which he can take) and is yet another unorthodox style of fighting in kicks, grabs and punches on string.
Mac is also confirmed to punch at least harder than a bull charge where it's revealed that Bald Bull shrugged off a bull charge like nothing
Congrats on 30k subs and 100 videos! You guys totally deserve more subs than you have, and this episode is one reason why. I would love to say this was one of my favorite episodes in recent history. But the last two sb episodes managed to usurp my number 1 favorite TWICE In a row. You guys have really been on a roll recently.
Cant wait for plant vs olimar. One of my most hyped for matches in this round.
I mean, she has a blade, gun, and a huge wrecking ball...
All telegraphed, and Mac is known for his capability of dodging. And that's not everything that was left out either, wrong or discounted. This fight was blatantly rigged out of bias in favor of Min Min.
@@brimfire7536 Agreed
Min Min cant just switch out her arms when ever she wants. In the game they can only do it between rounds. it's not like the people in ARMS have access to a hammerspace. She didn't need another advantage over Mac.
Cope
