I'm so happy you've decided to give Corrin a try (or rather, the chat did =). They are so underrated, and in spite of the harsh nerfs from Sm4sh to Ultimate, they are still very strong. I understand the whole "not another Fire Emblem Character" thing, but i've never felt like they're unnecessarily added more so than (insert example). I really appreciate it!
I honestly think that the commonly held thought that “Corrin is boring” just really goes to show how pea-brained the average Smash player is. Corrin is incredibly cool, fun, and technical, with exciting combos you have to actually think about rather than just memorize. She’s way cooler than “hype” characters like Ganon or Falcon.
I love this video series! Really enjoying the additional information you added in this video. Hope your future videos in this series also has more commentary like this
We have come so far… from ‘who is Corrin? What is corrin? *sad violin noises’ in 12mil gsp episode to this… Thank you Sillintor for doing god work with my main
Having played and mended Corrin since day 1, makes me happy to see you explained her basics so well and tried making her work to the best of your ability in only 3 days :) I still play Corrin to this day but I'm more-so on the techy side of things. Corrin might not have much tech but her planking if used correctly has really good potential. She's top tier at edgeguarding, scary as hell at the ledge, top 3 set of aerials in the game (yes, I think her aerial kit is better than Mythra's), and overall just still has tools to be a really really good character. Also, Corrin loses bad to Samus, don't feel bad about your R1 XD
In regards to Dark Samus, I believe 'it' would be correct. While not being just the suit, Dark Samus is an entity of phazon, which is essentially a sentient mineral that is both very radioactive and very evil. At the end of Metroid Prime 1, we see Samus' phazon suit being pulled off of her by the dying Metroid Prime. Later, we see a hand emerge from a bubbling pool of phazon, which we can assume is Dark Samus even though the colors are different.
Correct, the hand that emerges from the puddle was where Metroid Prime laid, so it's believed to be Metroid Prime in the phazon suit which makes up Dark Samus. Prime 2 Echoes also confirms this when you see the body in the suit.
12:00 Dark Samus isnt quite just a suit, but it is an "it". Like with the SA-X from metroid fusion, dark samus is a singular creature so where samus has a suit around her body, the body of dark samus just happens to be in the shape of a suit. Still wish she and other echo fighters had unique movesets of their own but at least dark samus got a lot of custom flair on her moves unlike daisy. And you know what, while im commenting, i would like to recommend Ridley for the 3 day challenge. Love watching that character and he is very interesting to play as well.
Dark Samus is the reborn form of Metroid Prime. After it was defeated by Samus in the first game it absorbed her phazon suit and became Dark Samus, first appearing in Metroid Prime 2 Echos.
I’m trying to pick up corrin and this video helped me a lot. I don’t play the game a lot, I love the smash franchise. t it’s so fun and i love watching videos about it.
Love this video series so much! Love how u play these characters and show people things they might not now or things they can improve if it’s their main (my main is joker from last 3 day challenge). I personally would love to see cloud, he is very fun, Bair is broken and I’d be interested to see how u do.
I really loved how you analytically breaked down the character before the tournament, it was very insightful and interesting to hear with the gameplay making a visual representation of what you were talking about! Great video as always! Would be very interesting for you to learn Incin and do a tournament with him.
As a Diddy main with a Corrin secondary I did not realize the ledge trapping potential that neutral b has in combination with side b. I always thought the best way to cover options was to space back air and try to read their option. Thanks for showing me some great options that I can use :)
I feel like Corrin, although having a decent neutral, bad disadvantage, and good advantage, struggles to find "explosive openings" or momentum. You just kind of need to consistently outgrind/outplay your opponent. Feels like a huge hill to climb when your opponent has a lead. Also, all those tech roll in's vs ZSS were rough to watch 😢 MU knowledge check there: her biggest rewards always come from punishing that roll in with downsmash. Good Corrin showing though!!!
I'd love to see one of these onMeta Knight. I've recently been determined to main him, and once you get the hang of it, he's so fun! (And in my opinion, slightly underrated)
You should try implementing a fast wavedash into your gameplay, it depends on the character but its great for positioning and mixups. Do it with grab button instead of shield to get an actual melee like wavedash and remember: maximum is 2 after each other, after that you have to wait for at least 2 seconds (1 second for each wavedash so they'll refresh, otherwise they will become slow). It really is worth it so please try it Edit: Great under platforms to reposition and also dashes towards your opponent and then wavedashing back to make them whiff a potential attack
One thing I'll say is that Counter Surge is a useful but unique counter. It's not meant for edgegaurding like all the others. Counter Surge is for stopping a juggle from the opponent or starting a juggle yourself. Treating it like how it was in 4 Wii U/3Ds should be rare and in high percentage or from a strong move at mid percentage. In Free for All/Doubles it has good crowd control. Hopefully this gives a better understanding of the move.
Great matches! I always enjoy watching Sillin's tournament play! I always appreciate the amount of thought that goes into each players' moves to capitalize on an opponent's disadvantage. Sillin ran into a lot of Samuses (Sami?) 😅 I don't remember much from Smash 4, but was Corrin better in Smash 4 than Ultimate? I vaguely recall Corrin's counter in Smash 4 being a bit ridiculous, but I might be misremembering.
Dark Samus is the Phazon Queen parasite from an intersected Impact Crater, she took the Phazon suit from the real Samus and turns into Dark Samus in the next game of that series. Dark Samus has feminine qualities but is animalistic at best, she takes the female like appearance do to the female suit she absorbs. However, she is just Phazon in a suit, so classifying her as an "it" is not that big of a deal.
Using counter as an edgeguard tool is still viable to rack up damage (or taking early stocks on someone recovering high) and it will still kill some recoveries like ness'
To answer the question about Dark Samus: Dark Samus is essentially the combination of Metroid Prime (extremely corrupted Metroid) and Samus’s Phazon Suit. Regardless, We don’t know its sex, so keep on calling it, “it.”
Dark Samus is not just a suit Dark samus first appeared in Metroid Prime 2 as a real character and is a pure thing living with Phazon which is better explained in Metroid prime 2 and Prime 3
I noticed you mentioned how good Corin is with her dash frames and how defensive she can be but I didn't see much of that in the later half of the video. Maybe you focused too much on training with her combo/ juggle game and neglected her mildly unique defense game? Who knows. Great vid as always
I'm not sure, but I think Dark Samus is a being, something comparable to mewtwo. Most people in that case would refer to it as she, since I'm pretty sure it's related to Samus.
Honestly, I liked the character better before, when she was heavier and her strategy consisted mostly of some simple combos and timing long range attacks to maximize her damage. Then they made the character faster and nerfed some of her launch (especially NAir and FAir) and she became another "Fire Emblem swordsman clone" but with minor tweeks...
Hi Sillintor; one of my friends plays Terry and Kazuya, and more often than not just shield + jabs or spot dodge + jabs into victory... (He's also 12.9m GSP to my ~11 mill) How do I deal with this? He complains if I run and gun, which is the only mildly effective option (as in I win 1 match out of 30) I've found... any other tips to beating these stupid auto-turn characters? (Doesn't help that my characters tend to be slower in neutral / slow grabs [Yoshi/Samus/etc.])
My favorite is when my opponent is at kill percent, kills me and I respawn and yell HOLD SHIELD COWARD and almost half the time they actually do and I just get a free f smash kill for the win
Dark Samus is technically genderless as it is the Metroid Prime. They are referred to by feminine pronouns most of the time due to being a mixture of Samus's DNA and Phazon. Although later in the series they become a fully Phazon being. Basically. She/It pronouns would technically work for Dark Samus.
It's such a nice gesture of him to address his opponents by their tag. It just shows some kind of appreciation for his enemys
These 3 days challenges are really cool. It’s very fun seeing you figure out corrin, especially because they have some underrated sauce
i love those 3 days training plus entering tourney videos
edit: its helping me a lot learing new characters
I’m not a Corrin main but I want to say thank you on their behalf for this breakdown. The Corrin mains I’m sure are both very pleased with this

Just started to pick up Corrin myself. Such a fun character. Glad you made this video!

Corrin is cool, people just don’t give her a chance, side b feels really good to use
I thought about picking her up for my bad inkling matchups.
Corrin main here, you got the theory down really well, especially the landing catching. great work :D
In regards to Dark Samus, I believe 'it' would be correct.

Last game was insane, love both ZSS and Corrin
Great content man ❤️

The intro was very useful to understand the char better cause ive never played her
this is actually teaching me a lot about Corrin! very nice video!
i love corrin, and i love the vid! i actually main her, and i think you should try another swordie like ike!
Corrin up air may just be the most satisfying move in the game to land.
For me it's her BAir... Up air is also satisfying, but her BAir is just chef kiss
Ggs for your run! Very nice video

bro you gotta do Isabelle
Hard agree
No
@@fabioortega449 buggin
@@tekirai_ naw you are
I don't like Isabelle personally but I won't argue lol
Dark Samus is metroid prime possessing Samus' suit
Holy cow it’s so satisfying to watch you play Corrin, your kill confirms are just beautiful
enjoyed the format of this video, clean explanation all the way through!

Let's goooo! He even played my Corrin skin.
I love the 3 days to tourney videos. the fox one was my favorite so far...I think ness would be a fun character to see you do this video format with!
I'd love to see one of these onMeta Knight. I've recently been determined to main him, and once you get the hang of it, he's so fun! (And in my opinion, slightly underrated)
Nice video As always my guy, just started watching u and it was definetly one of my best decisions this year
The 3 corrin players (me) seeing this pop up
I am another one of the three
make that 4
I also like to play corrin😁
And another one of our fellow brethrens
0:11 look here i am gary
i was kidding about olimar, i don't like that little astronaut
Love the vid ( : ( plant next? It would be cool to see how you take a mid charecter and make it good )
I've already done a plant video. You should find it in the "3 DAY TOURNAMENT" - playlist or by searching for it :)
Great video Sili, more 3 day Tourney videos please!

When he explains what he learned at the start of tge video sounded like "art of corrin" for like 2 minuts lmao😂

Diddy next! Your Diddy is hype
Im so glad he uses the pink female versions of corrin and robin
I recommend learning the sdi to luigi's down throw combos, so you can interact more at low % and not be worried as much
Might I recommend that you try out Ridley?
Your editing and script has gone better and better Sil!
Another fire 3 day challenge video! It would be interesting to see Falco next.
bro picked up a dlc like mkleo
Nice video dude!
I would love to see Hero for the next challenge !
Pokémon Trainer would be awesome!
Loool, yeah dark sam is just a sort of posonous radioactive blue blob inside the suit
Can we get a Robin next?

I have a idear for the next character of the 3 days i was thinking lucas , ness , robin and sora. That was a great video continue like this
To answer the question about Dark Samus: Dark Samus is essentially the combination of Metroid Prime (extremely corrupted Metroid) and Samus’s Phazon Suit. Regardless, We don’t know its sex, so keep on calling it, “it.”
These are great. Honestly, feel free to have more of the straight game footage, if you are allowed to.
Dark Samus is not just a suit
Dark samus first appeared in Metroid Prime 2 as a real character and is a pure thing living with Phazon which is better explained in Metroid prime 2 and Prime 3
“Can we talk about how much dmg down air did?!”
Yes, welcome to the dark side
Dark Samus is a Phazon being that took Samus' form so yes, calling it and "it" is all good.
Great run! You gotta go Ganon!
Oh man I would love to see you do a Diddy Kong video.
Dude, I’d love to see what you could do with Pichu. I think you could do really well and get some cool clips.
0:58 Kinda weird Sonic doesn’t have the fastest dash frames don’t you think?
It’s literally all he’s known for.
Thank you for teaching as you go too these are my favorite
Very informational video, thank you :)
Gotta do my boy, Luigi
I noticed you mentioned how good Corin is with her dash frames and how defensive she can be but I didn't see much of that in the later half of the video. Maybe you focused too much on training with her combo/ juggle game and neglected her mildly unique defense game? Who knows. Great vid as always
I wanna see this challenge with Ganon
I love these videos because I’ve mained corrin since i got the game and i never knew that “insta-pin” existed 😅
I'm not sure, but I think Dark Samus is a being, something comparable to mewtwo. Most people in that case would refer to it as she, since I'm pretty sure it's related to Samus.
I think you know what character I… I mean WE want next.
Duck hunt is really fun would love to see him in one of these videos
Bayonetta pls would be so cool to see you learn combos
Dark Samus is the reborn form of Metroid Prime. The main boss from the game also named Metroid Prime.
Edit: how about a Ridley 3 day run?
Pokémon Trainer !!! When you actually learn them it’s awesome
Rosalina and luma would be so sick
Try olimar:)
I stopped playing corrin for mario, but IG its time to get back on it.
This man is so cracked that he can sweep after 2 days of practice!
Honestly, I liked the character better before, when she was heavier and her strategy consisted mostly of some simple combos and timing long range attacks to maximize her damage.
Then they made the character faster and nerfed some of her launch (especially NAir and FAir) and she became another "Fire Emblem swordsman clone" but with minor tweeks...
Technically I don't think Dark Samus is even a suit - basically just dark matter
this video proves that I have a lot to learn if I wanna be a pro Corrin player
As a corrin main I appreciate this video

i have question guys where dou you find this online tournement inscription ? (excuse me if my senteces is wrong but i am not english) thanks
Do bayonetta
Do Lucas! He’s so good but no one plays him.
Do lucario
My favorite is when my opponent is at kill percent, kills me and I respawn and yell HOLD SHIELD COWARD and almost half the time they actually do and I just get a free f smash kill for the win
12:00 No you’re right. It’s a suit that was made from pure phazon. ^^

I always love watching these btw
