HONESTLY. I picked up Bowser just a few days ago and he's already one of my highest GSP, almost at Elite - never really bothered to play him before. He's just such a no BS fighter. No fancy set-ups required with him. Just outsmart your opponent, switch up your strategies, and position yourself well - then just hit your opponent and they die lol.
That's why I play him. I'm trash at smash, but his simple kit is easy to pick up and the best part is you can win without fancy combos which I have no hope of pulling off. That and he's fast as fuck. Never thought I'd find myself maining a heavy in Smash when I usually drift towards mid rangers.
Bowser is perfect in this game. He's my favourite nintendo character and is perfect for me, because I never think to shield or dodge, so you can be really reckless with Bowser. He's so tough that he can take hit after hit while other characters can't.
I completely agree, I just got a switch and I bought smash since that is one of the nintendo games I have always wanted to tried, and for a noob like me bowser is perfect
As a lightweight, Bowser is the devil. He's faster than you (depending on your character), and he can kill you at 60%. Not to mention your attacks don't even phase him, while you rapid jab him for whole seconds, he's charging up that infamous side smash. Before you know it, you've been obliterated.
Glad to see good Bowser mains(as a Bowser main this makes me happy), unlike those who always use air down A and side B, and who can’t forget always using side smash.
*BOWSER* +Top 20 in run speed. +Heaviest in the game; Jabs can get you killed. +Attacks equal to that or better than *GANONDORF* +Combo Nair +Neutral special great for gimps and stopping approaches. +Bowsercide. Opponent too low to recover. +Annoying F-air +Up Smash melts lightweights +Whirling Fortress(GROUNDED) excellent punisher +Down air and down special great for catching people off guard
Yes, but there are two things you need to keep in mind: 1) if the opponent has more percentage than you, they have greater control of you directional input and will usually keep you from bowserciding. 2) the bowser will die before the opponent (hard coded into the game) and so it's not wise to do if you dont have a stock advantage.
I don’t know if it’s just me. all I see is side special kills because he can’t really kill with anything else aside from smashes. This is why I can’t play bowser, every kill is relying on side special to kill. bowser’s back air is too slow to land often and forward air isn’t a kill move. I wanted to play him because He got buffs to make him very strong but they need to nerf side special and buff other things. I also see zero combos for bowser it’s just any air you can land, neutral special if possible then side special. Make Bowser Strong not spammy.
Ecchi Bot I gottta disagree with you there. As a Bowser main: Bair is one of his quickest aerials and can even auto cancel if you buffer it when you short hop. Fair is a great kill move and is very good catching opponent a little above or a little below you due to its swinging hitbox that starts above and slightly behind him and ends below and slightly behind him. F-tilt is a pretty decent kill move as well that can 2-frame and opponent trying to grab ledge. And considering the small distance between ledge and the blast zone compared to onstage and the knockback the move does, you can net a nice kill off the side or a gimp. U-tilt isn’t the best kill move, but it’s a decent option considering its large hitbox and the fact it hits through and above platforms. D-tilt is a decent 2-frame option as well, but it lacks the kill power that f-tilt has. Jab can actually kill very well for a jab surprisingly, and both hits connect pretty consistently no matter the percent unlike Samus and D. Samus. Uair is a good albeit slightly slower aerial to challenge your opponent from below and catch their landing option to net a good kill, and it’s a good kill move as well. Nair is a pretty versatile tool. If you watch the video again, one of the Bowsers landed with Nair and followed up with a Bair to net a kill and win the game. That landing Nair to Bair is actually a true combo. And depending on which part of the hitbox the opponent gets hit off of and their percent, Nair can combo into other moves from low to mid percents. Down B and Dair are good tools to catch an opponent getting too aggressive with trying to chase you and kill you off the top. Down B is also great for if your opponent likes to sit in shield a lot. Break their shield and boom, free kill. I don’t really need to explain Bowser’s Smash attacks in terms of kill power. A thing to note though is Tough Guy giving each move a percent per hit (any move below 8% won’t break Bowser out of his attack animation for example). And his shell in invulnerable during Up Smash. And the fact it reach above platforms is nice too. Overall, Bowser has a lot of kill power in more than just his Side B and Smash attacks. If it was just those moves, he wouldn’t do as well as he does in this game. If you want to try playing Bowser again, look up some video guides of how to play him and see if he fits your playstyle. If he doesn’t, that’s okay. But there’s more to him then just Side B and yolo Smash attacks for kills.
Adrian Steven Din This comment is clearly by the type of guy who plays with items on so this shouldn't count. But to be honest, it's not exactly a nerf but I want them to fix donkey kong side b so it doesn't hit when the arm doesn't connect.
Light character : Exists
Bowser : *I'm about to end this man's whole career*
lol
WHAT CAREER
@@HanSoloTheScoundrel Exactly
Light Character: wins the game
Bowser: Those are some tough words for someone at kill percent...
Anyone else want a Dry Dones Bowser skin?
*bones
YES
that would actually be sick
Or as an echo
Dark bowser skin from bowsers inside story game

Yeah honestly that is my type of playing
@@phatyoshi7006 so is pacman.
Oh snake using Nikita while you're offstage?
Might as well use my super armored *SIDE SPECIAL.*
Bowser is a great rushdown character killing your opponents before they can think
He's also great to punish any mistakes and take full advantage of them.
That's why I play him. I'm trash at smash, but his simple kit is easy to pick up and the best part is you can win without fancy combos which I have no hope of pulling off. That and he's fast as fuck. Never thought I'd find myself maining a heavy in Smash when I usually drift towards mid rangers.
As a Bowser main, I’m proud
me too

We all agree with no drawbacks

Smash Bros: all characters are the same level of power.
Bowser: that's not how I roll.
Bowser is very fun to play. 👍
High Calibur X side special combo is my favorite
My favourite heavy character. I don’t often play heavies but if i am it would be bowser
shut the fuck up idot bich my mom died to bowser

LeoN is the best bowser player in smash ultimate.
Go check him out
That was juice
Honestly
No I am
@@skweebly no
Literally just picked up bowser a bit ago and I love him.
DAMN. bowsers taking down top players!!!!
Bowser is so good in this game, I love it
Bruh bowser might be the best heavy in the game :D
Your profile pic is fire
@Kirbyex7 hes ass bowser is way better and ganon is second incineror is next ect..
@@irwin997 i shipped your profile picture
*loud doryah in the distance*
Goku Dbz there's no way incineroar is better than ddd and donkey kong.
Insert me screaming “DI DOWN” every side b

*Sweats nervously*
Bowser is my favorite nintendo character i mean he is the best video game villain
Im so glad he is viable,fast and better in ultimate the heavies need more love.
Bowser players after completing destroying a light character:🥱

Isn't he amazing?!
bowser in the very first smb: he is creepy
in all ssb series: he is cool
I'm so close to getting bowser into elite smash. This video both inspires me and give me hope.
Dry Bowser as an echo fighter. Please make it happen, Nintendo! :)
3:22 we all know why bowser keeps sode b'ing a lot in this match
Its peach he is against XD
Another excellent video, bravo
Love Bowser and Samus
Nobody:
Not even the greatest Mario mains:
Bowser with a Side-B: *Bold of you to assume that I’d make this bullshit easy for you*
Getting in elite smash with bowser is one of my proudest achievements
5:46 today just wasn’t rubsteady’s day
Bruh they upgraded my boy bowser to beast so well man 🤙🏽
Man, bowser improved so much I'll always be a bowser player even if I haven't played for a while.
Is amazing how Leon is the only recognized Bowser main in Ultimate! I'm gonna main Bowser myself too!
i thought this was going to be clips of best bowser plays... not whole matches
the whole matches are the best browser plays!!!
It really hurts when people say: BoWsEr PlAyErS aRe BrAiNdEaD
Dunno about that. Have you ever played Bowser against ZSS, Luigi and Pikachu?
Very rage inducing.
Can you do a Greninja montage next
You should look at the Fahrenheit vs Shoe set on COSmash if you make another one of these.
Bowser kicks
Bruh samsora had AirPods in
I find that Palutena matchup so hard. How are you supposed to deal with the n-airs from 0% ?
You don't :/ just escape it when possible and retaliate. Bowser is so heavy and strong, he can eat combos then hit hard
2:49-2:53 Are we just ignore that entire interaction?
Perfect time to taunt! ;)
I find Bowser for imposing than Ganondorf in this game.
All my main Bowser players, where you at?
Yo, you called fam? Bowser mains!
@@departed2022 Ey, here too!
And to think in smash 4 nairo was the one playing bowser hahaha
God damn it Mario what did I tell you about your foot fetishes
As much as I’d like to learn GaW, I know Im a Bowser main at heart.
Just know that the only reason anyone loses to Bowser is *FEAR*
Bowser is a beast
Why this hour you up the video?
i think he has been editing videos late at night trying to upload this video
@@DjSoSmooveMINTY124 no problem he Is of Australia and me of México
*leon has entered the chat*
In México Is a 3:00 a.m
It's 6:15 p.m in Australia :)
12 AM in America ;p
I don't know anything about competitive smash, so I'm just asking a question, can't Bowser players side B into the smash zone?
Yes, but there are two things you need to keep in mind: 1) if the opponent has more percentage than you, they have greater control of you directional input and will usually keep you from bowserciding. 2) the bowser will die before the opponent (hard coded into the game) and so it's not wise to do if you dont have a stock advantage.
@@CardboardBones No its the lower the percentage the less control bowser has. The higher the percentage the more control bowser has.
Just goes to show that it doesn't matter what tier of character you play.
I feel like a lot of bowser mains are from New Jersey
LeoN by far the best Bowser
Ike = Heavy slayer
Bowser is high tier don't @me
Goku Dbz
He is
I just spam Side-B with Bowser, it's so OP!
+1
Best Cloud player pls Kappa
Like
All heavy weights will be (nerfed change my mind)
Well why should they be nerfed
Check the channel Bitmastermty a player named "pollo" he plays bowser
Bowser kills peach 2:40
OWO

Dude forward air kills super early whatre you talking about bud
This is the most idiotic thing I've read in days.
I dont understand why people need nerfs especially on heavies.
