@@las4gna84 Well, Villagers always spam that darn tree and stand around camping and then shoot rockets at you when you come close. That's pretty dang annoying. Luckily I know how to punish them.

This is really a note for myself, but other people passing by can use this comment too. 18:26 Combos 7:16 Dat Reverse Neutral B trick 9:27 Fishing rod Ranges
I felt like the fishing rod section was missing incredibly important information. Sure, the fishing rod is good, but it can be shielded, which majorly reduces its usefulness in many situations and technically makes the move not a grab. It can also be used as a recovery, which would’ve also been good information to include.
This guide is great. Comprehensive, in-depth, and I think that most of what you're saying is true as an Isabelle player. However I think you might want to make a part 2 that addresses some of her flaws and disadvantage state. You mention at the beginning that Isabelle gets exploited a lot, but you didn't exactly specify any examples or talk about that in the video at all. If you followed through with making a continuation addressing her problems, players who want to pick up Isabelle will be able to learn what issues she has and find ways to work around them.
Its hard to find examples of weaknesses since that would be analysis of matches and matchups that are pretty random and different people's natural playstyles will make the breakdown inconsistent
@@brennanhaake Also what the guy said about her being ungimpable is lie every and any character can be gimped. Actually, it's fairly simple to gimp her if you pop her two balloons she will literally die her recovery just like villager, also has a mechanic if they keep getting edgeguarded for too long the recovery will keep getting weaker and weaker to the point where they can't recover high enough anymore.
I'd like to see an updated version once ultimate gets its final patch, since they pretty much just buffed her and made her tools more reliable. Examples include: Fishing Rod's tether actually reaching the ledge, Lloid Rocket not being something to just run over, Jab having more hitstun and less knockback (Wobelle), lots of combo moves having less lag, and some kill moves being made stronger
Let's say you pocket someone's Special Item, they can't use that move again until you get rid of it by using it or dying. Examples: Link's Remote Bomb, Wario's Bike, King K. Rool's Crown, Rob's spinner.
Tips from a fellow Isabelle player! 1.) When you plant a rocket and throw a fishing rod over it to grab an opponent, sometimes they will trip the rocket. Which you can follow up by throwing them in. 2.) When the rocket explodes on an enemy, there is a small window to up-air them before they get blasted away. Easy 30%.
I remember when I pocketed an axe from Richter and waited to roll behind him and yeet his own axe against him, finishing the game. Nothing big, but I lost it because we both me and my were at kill percent
Thanks. Very helpful. Just having a bit trouble keeping the opponents in the air. But I found that the fishing rod works well for edge-guarding in many cases as well.
I personally like fishing rod into lloyd. You camp the lloyd and as soon as the enemy triggers it, you can dodge roll back into fishing rod, which then throws the character back into the lloyd explosion. It's super difficult and doesn't do much damage, but it's clutch af!
Online Clouds that spam neutral b can be countered by Isabelle Just spam neutral B back, your return shot will overpower theirs and they will take damage :)
Great guide! Just tried this character yesterday and fell in love. Still quite a beginner player but I can already tell smash is going to be one of my favorite games.
I love battling against characters like Lucario, Samus, mewtoo, ect. Because I love when they build up some huge projectile and I just pocket and send it back 10/10 character
I love when you play in final destinstion stage you grab the opponent while falling down grab him with fishing rod and throw him at the wall and he will bounce to death zone
been picking up isabel as a possible new main. have noticed few things while playing. loid traps are super fun to use. I know spamming them might be bad cause it takes a while but might as well have one to try and cover a upward recovery. best feeling ever is to hook them into a loid. not easy to pull off but when it does its amazing.
Great video, thanks a lot! One thing I felt was missing was edge guarding. The side smash pot drop is actually pretty good for edge guarding I've noticed, you have to time it well but at high percentage and just the right angle it even has spiking capabilities. Also, the rod can sometimes to ridiciolous edge guarding if the opponent hasn't got an idea how to recover as you can chain it a lot.
10:09 this is very hard, because if you try fishing roding someone off the edge of the map, you will most likely attach to the ledge, instead of the enemy.
Don't know if this was mentioned in the video, but apparently, Isabelle's weed attack does more damage than Villager's (atleast from what I've seen, since I tried the attack with both characters.)
I got a question about her turnips. Does it spike only near the center of the hitbox or does it have something to do with the middle or tip of the turnip
I’m not an expert and this is what I know, let’s say a opponent is on the top platform, you do a semi large jump into them, the tips do less damage if it like barley hits them, but if they like fall into it like from a juggle or them just falling into it, it does more damage
im so good at getting people to percents where they can get ko’d super easily, yet i never get to hit the heavy attack and only manage to kill ever at like 200 percent or just screwing up people recovering, any tips on kills?
Strangely, Isabelle is my best character but not my main so uhh... What notes I would give is uhh... -Neutral air to up tilt is definitely a good spammable low level combo starter. -Uhh, down special is something I use to get stage control. I would bait someone to jump in order to dodge a fishing rod, but I detonate the down B and it kills them. -135% at all characters, if at the top platform of battlefield, fishing rod up would kill 100%. -I confirmed that neutral B has some invincibility, and I confirmed that I use it as a spotdodge like the smash 4 air dodge. -Her out of shield options are lowkey garbage, I could only list down: Grab, Down Tilt, Jab, Up Tilt, Forward Smash, Down Smash. -Side B, the fishing rod I use it a lot for recovery, so uhh, if you could reach the ledge then use it. -Fishing rod has better knockback if the line of the fishing rod is longer. -Fishing rod forward air is my most consistent kill option. Or just you know, Forward Air. -Balloons are garbage, not overpowered like the guide says. The distance is good tho, so if your opponent sucks, then you're good. -Don't roll in from ledge, you don't have many options for it, maybe it's just my inexperience. -Dash attack is a funny gimp option on ledge, which I follow up with a run off down air. -Isabelle's Jab, has an infinite on a ledge of a stage or platform. I suggest looking up a guide for them. -Backthrow, it's uhh, you yeet an opponent if their high percent, it's prolly a kill throw. I need to know more, this info is not enough for me. Or maybe, it is and I just need to learn how to read better. Or maybe, pick up villager. I didn't know back air had more knockback and damage but the more you know I guess.
I think most things you say, are true, but you make her look better than she is. The range on all her smashes is just ridiculously bad and they don't really have more knockback than other characters'. At least not the ones I've played intensively yet.
I'm just here to see if neutral B works as a spotdodge for non projectile attacks even in air. Because it works against my friend, I need my confirmation.
I really want to be good at Isabelle. I watched the whole video and liked it too! Thanks a lot for the help, and I’ll let you know if any of the combos and neutral sling shot airs work like you said in the vid.

How do you consistently do her broom up tilt move? Whenever I do it, the stop sign appears or I jump and do a move. Please help, someone.
Paradox I recommend changing the c stick to tilt attack, more easier to do tilt attacks

you can also pocket link’s bomb and never throw it he will not have his bomb until you die it’s so funny and actually good to do

The Rod is a bit of a tether grab substitute that doesn’t let you grab attack them and leads straight into throw.

Don't know if this was mentioned in the video, but apparently, Isabelle's weed attack does more damage than Villager's (atleast from what I've seen, since I tried the attack with both characters.)
should I change the buttons on my controller to be better with Isabelle and/or use a GameCube controller or something.
Character guides provide more insight on how to beat a character than "how to beat (insert character)" videos do.
What should you do if u go up against a character that can deflect ur projectiles like Mario
Use more the tilts and the up air and down air (that's what I do)
Isabelle is the funnest main I've ever had ngl
How are you firing the slingshot twice.
I got a question about her turnips. Does it spike only near the center of the hitbox or does it have something to do with the middle or tip of the turnip
I’m not an expert and this is what I know, let’s say a opponent is on the top platform, you do a semi large jump into them, the tips do less damage if it like barley hits them, but if they like fall into it like from a juggle or them just falling into it, it does more damage
Isabelle jab will also jab lock opponents for two hits and can let you lead into free side smash.
Unless they dodge.
Isabelle looks fun. I probably won't main her, but this guide will help if I want to use her.

How Did He Use The Stop Sign Attack?
Up smash
Strangely, Isabelle is my best character but not my main so uhh...
What notes I would give is uhh...
-Neutral air to up tilt is definitely a good spammable low level combo starter.
-Uhh, down special is something I use to get stage control. I would bait someone to jump in order to dodge a fishing rod, but I detonate the down B and it kills them.
-135% at all characters, if at the top platform of battlefield, fishing rod up would kill 100%.
-I confirmed that neutral B has some invincibility, and I confirmed that I use it as a spotdodge like the smash 4 air dodge.
-Her out of shield options are lowkey garbage, I could only list down: Grab, Down Tilt, Jab, Up Tilt, Forward Smash, Down Smash.
-Side B, the fishing rod I use it a lot for recovery, so uhh, if you could reach the ledge then use it.
-Fishing rod has better knockback if the line of the fishing rod is longer.
-Fishing rod forward air is my most consistent kill option. Or just you know, Forward Air.
-Balloons are garbage, not overpowered like the guide says. The distance is good tho, so if your opponent sucks, then you're good.
-Don't roll in from ledge, you don't have many options for it, maybe it's just my inexperience.
-Dash attack is a funny gimp option on ledge, which I follow up with a run off down air.
-Isabelle's Jab, has an infinite on a ledge of a stage or platform. I suggest looking up a guide for them.
-Backthrow, it's uhh, you yeet an opponent if their high percent, it's prolly a kill throw.
I need to know more, this info is not enough for me. Or maybe, it is and I just need to learn how to read better. Or maybe, pick up villager.
I didn't know back air had more knockback and damage but the more you know I guess.
Hey, are you still maining Isabelle in 2021. Is this guide still viable. Thanks.
I haven't played in over a year. The basics should still apply
I think most things you say, are true, but you make her look better than she is. The range on all her smashes is just ridiculously bad and they don't really have more knockback than other characters'. At least not the ones I've played intensively yet.
Her smash attacks are not needed. She has 4 other kill moves.
I'm just here to see if neutral B works as a spotdodge for non projectile attacks even in air. Because it works against my friend, I need my confirmation.
You didn't give me any advice, you just gave me her moveset
I have an issabelle amibo. The amibo shall be the most dangerous thing on the Internet
Thank you for the video! All of you friends are super awesome!
