People just underestimate Little Mac. I mean his aerial attacks are really good if used properly for disgusting combo setups. Never let your guard down on a Little Mac or you'll regret it...
You can say his aerials are useful, but it's undeniably awfully designed for the game he is in. The amount of knowledge, technique and skill the character requieres is huge compared to most. Thank you for the video, I subscribed after this :D
his aerials are awful cus they have no range and no dmg. Most of the situations here aren't using aerials to fight in the air, just to enhance his ground game.
I love mac. Is a true tock paper sissors character. He have all needed tools, the recovery enought(even with side b). I think all mac mains that know all from him, even aerials combos, deserve fear and respecr
Little mac the under dog of his own tier list. Those who main him find enjoyment in always having to give it a 110% to win a match. Now that being said nothing is more frustrating then being gimped on a new stock, or spam projectile from across the stage. I'm not saying make him the lord of the sky, I am saying if this man cant fly make him a Lord of the lands. Make his Ground game the best. Balancing Little Mac Steps 1. Give his Side B super armor so he can recover and not be gypped. That or allow him to use it again if he is hit. Followed up with up B sooner would help greatly. 2. Change his neutral B into something that can be charged and held. Giving him the ability to recover. 3. Less ending lag on his moves so that when he attacks a player and they simply shield they are not able to grab him so easily. That or make it so his moves push him farther away from his opponent. 4. Give him a special mechanic when he spot dodges, perfect shields that he gets something special that follows more with his game. ( Examples) Spot dodges= temporary faster smash attack Spot dodges= strong tilt Spot dodges= charges up for a KO punch. Perfect Shields= stronger Smash attack Perfect shields= charges up KO punch Perfect shields = more knockback Perfect shields projectile = able to shrug off one project Perfect shields multi attacks= temp gains browsers big boy perk. These are all just ideas that could be worked around or even better ideas. 5. Better frames in his dodges (Getting grabbed in mid dodge sucks....) 6. Being able to get on a platform without using two jumps. 7. A better counter that's not going to kill you if it's used in the air. Maybe make it so Little Mac automatically counters back towards the stage other then flinging him into the abyss. 8. Redoing his Up B would be amazing so he does not go into free fall when used would allow him to use his Side B and Up B to recover in different ways. 9. Less end lag when landing back on stage would allows him shield projectile better or dodge faster.

You realize he was playing against basically only mid tier or lower right and nair chains sometimes arent true and spotdodge or anything else for ko punch
I started playing little mac yesterday and I just felt like using his aerials. It worked out well any I won most of the matches I was in, to the point I got kicked from my friends arena
my guy had to be so careful with how he explained that theyre somewhat useful they may have some niche use in his kit but you cannot approach with fair or use bair to kill or literally anything concievable that an aerial is meant to do
2:15 a Little Mac move to get away from your opponent. I don't think you as Little Mac want to get distance between you and your oppnent. Would you want a move to get close when you play with Min Min? I really don't see how that's not more counter productive than it is helpful good vid, it's nice to see people trying to get more perspective even if in the end it's not true or we don't agree
@@davidarruda8400 nah, he beats some characters, like ganon and incin. He's actually even with a lot of characters, too. I see you don't know his matchups
This Nair really does suck. :( Let's use it anyway, cause let's be real no one is ever ready for it. :) This video is pretty good at letting me do that. Thank you for this content. 👌
@@desmondcoppin591 I watched the video. I'll just reword what I said. *Relative to other nairs in the game*. It's uses are more niche and less consistent than just about every other option. Just about every other nair in the game combos and pressures more effectively, kills or edgeguards more or some combination of that, while being bigger, more active, punishable on hit in less cases, or some combination of that. I guess there's DHD and Olimar's nairs that have the same kind of niches but those moves suck too.
Most moves in the game are positive on hit, meaning you can act out of endlag before your opponent can react out of hitstun. Negative on hit just means the opposite, where your opponent can act out before you finish the move’s animation.
I’m not gonna watch this video, but I have a question for the people that did. Is this a meme video? Or does this guy actually talk about how to use little Mac nair for 13 minutes straight.
im sorry brother but i must leave the covenant, im drifting away... i think mac is really shit and not fun anymore, ive moved on to greener pastures goodbye mac, hello every other character
The thing is his nair is has suchhh a small hitbox that its basically impossible to hit someone with it but side airs are good if u know how to use them
Everyone thinks I'm joking when I say he's got an amazing nair for utility! Thanks for all your work on this and every other video!
little mac a beast with super armor hint down tilt and foward smash faceing downwards will break there shield if they get sheild happy its really good
Amazing in the context of his kit
Just because his Nair has some uses Dosent mean it's good all his aerials are the worst aerials in the game
@Thonk I never said he did
@Thonk I never said that
“You ain’t no air fighter Mac”

I had to double back when you said “shit box” lmao

@@joyconbro to dash attack/side B..or as I like to call it SHOULDN'T HAVE BURNED THAT JUMP BIIIIIIIIIIITCH
When little mac attacks with aerials I always panicked because I'm like: wtf what was that !?! Will I die...?
People just underestimate Little Mac. I mean his aerial attacks are really good if used properly for disgusting combo setups.
Never let your guard down on a Little Mac or you'll regret it...
I mean he is an underdog
@Estrogen Fury fax
@Estrogen Fury this is equivalent to saying others are spamming aerial attacks, that's his way to play
It’s all “never let your guard down against a little mac” until he breaks your shield
@Estrogen Fury im making this a copypasta because of that last sentence
A move called “bad” doesn’t mean it’s useless
The way that I use his N-Air: _I don’t_
The way I use it: accidentally inputted fair.
When i first saw this video, i had to make sure it wasn't uploaded on April 1
You ever just open UA-cam and find 13 minutes on little mac's nair of all things
yes
You can say his aerials are useful, but it's undeniably awfully designed for the game he is in. The amount of knowledge, technique and skill the character requieres is huge compared to most.

Yeah no it isnt
Literally one of the easiest technical characters even at top level
his aerials are awful cus they have no range and no dmg. Most of the situations here aren't using aerials to fight in the air, just to enhance his ground game.
when joyconbro says the little mac discord is a great place :sodalul:
jk i love it
Your name is joyconbro but you're showing gamecube inputs
I love mac. Is a true tock paper sissors character. He have all needed tools, the recovery enought(even with side b). I think all mac mains that know all from him, even aerials combos, deserve fear and respecr
No they don’t
Everyone: (Says that Little Mac in the air is useless)
*Meanwhile Little Mac's side B:*
Awesome video!! Definitely taking notes, even as a Greninja main :)
Yo holup what are you doing here?
Ayo, it's appolotion. Keep up the great stuff, you are an inspiration for greninjas everywhere 🤌🔥
Im glad someone's talking about Mac's nair I always used it but im a trash little mac so I hope I see actual good little mac's using it

So much of this is wrong
this video is incredible
This is a surprisingly great video, keep it up
Finally, someone said it
"if your opponent mashes an option out of shield"
*shows Greninja who has literally no viable move out of shield*
Me: doubt
an entire video for an ariel
A few years late to this video but unlike smash 4 you get your double jump back when you get two-framed in ultimate
Mac’s ariels suck” say as gets nair dragged into a k.o. Punch
You realize he was playing against basically only mid tier or lower right and nair chains sometimes arent true and spotdodge or anything else for ko punch
I feel like I'm not supposed to be here.
I dont even play smash but i sat thru whole video learning
Dont trust the vid pls
finally a mac player who knows what hes doing we shall bring this charecter the respect he deserves
Mac deserves no respect
@@brandonmorehouse7507 why?
Ever check out Peanut? guy is by far one of the best Mac mains out there
I started playing little mac yesterday and I just felt like using his aerials. It worked out well any I won most of the matches I was in, to the point I got kicked from my friends arena
Yeah it was cause u were playing with friend of course. His aerials aren’t as good as one like this person makes them potentially out to be.
Genuinely never thought this move was bad i love using it
It is bad
@@brandonmorehouse7507 it’s bad depending on how you use it
"All airials are super usefull"
Soo, even back air?
Yes
Yeah. You can give your opponent emotional trauma by back throw them offstage and kill him at 30% with a bair.

I don't think the Mac Nation DIscord link works well.
Nice video man!
Great video, keep it up !!
I have started playing Mac few days ago
I once versed a little Mac online as puff
I just wanna note how messed up that is
I approve of this video
After watching Peanut so much suddenly this is in my recommended.

whos got the bad arieals now people :/ little mac good
His aerials are all trash wdym
Are you gonna make another little mac matchup chart
No point. He loses to everyone

What i understamd about this video
-Guys use Nair
What controllee you using
I used a pro controller when I started playing Mac, but now I've been using a gamecube controller since february.
@@joyconbro why does the thing look like that ? Like its a pad
Omg, I didnt know the move was that bad, yall should play wolf
LMAOOOO
Little Mac and air does not go together lol
Cool video, do you want to do some 1v1s
I honestly doubt anyone uses any of these tips. The aerials aren't really that useful nor does anyone hold their shield for that long
lol thank you
Lol, you couldn't be farther from the truth.
No.1 the Sh*t box🤣
What's a Negative hit?
Nice
Most of these things look great in a vacuum, but not in competitive imo
i hope peanut sees this
But its no nair november
Man when I tried out Mac I was like "dude I can drag with nair and do grab combos kinda" what a fine character indeed
If you can do that the people you were playing with werent very good
Why is there a 13 minute video on a fucking NAIR. WORSE ITS LITTLE MACS NAIR
Wait he has aerials?
Guide for the neutral air? Bro just jump and beat the sh-t out of you opponent lmao
Did you just say little Mac has a good ariel
This Nair really does suck. :(
Let's use it anyway, cause let's be real no one is ever ready for it. :)
This video is pretty good at letting me do that.
