No be honest, It’s not that complicated. I mean, it doesn’t move unless put on something else moving, only way to kill is pow and crush. Can crush any enemy. Is affected by gravity. Has defeating clear condition. Done
@@gabrielgiaogomes1338 it’s been a while since I made the level, but I believe I had a bunch of bill blasters stacked on a rail, and when spaced correctly they will shoot out at set intervals. I used a similar design to the buzzy helmet train concept
@@micaelgarcia1576 He always says, "A [item] in a Koopa Clown Car will pilot the vehicle towards Mario, and one in a Lakitu's Cloud will pilot the vehicle on a horizontal plane." Until now, that is.
9:06 this reminds me of "bumper balls" from mario party & could be used for a level where you ride a snowball to the goal, similar to the same concept used with bullet bills
From start to finish, this video was just so perfect! The metaphores/puns were actually not as bad as puns usually are, there were plenty of cool ideas, and it was super informative! Instant thumbs-up + sub!
Amazing video as always! Really happy I found this channel. Surprised how much stuff I didn’t even know about this game considering I’ve played it since day 1!
I know I'm kinda late to they party, but I subbed to you because I recently just started making Mario Levels and wanted to know how everything worked. I probably wouldn't have subbed so quickly but since you asked nicely and you put a lot of work into your videos, I'm more than happy to. I can't wait to watch the rest and build more levels! Thanks you!
You can get the Spike Ball from a Spike to roll immediately in SMB1 and SMB3 styles (just like in SMW and SMB3) by putting the Spike on a Muncher and any ground in front of the spike. Also you can kill a Chain Chomp and leave the stake behind by putting 2 Spike Balls directly above it.
Is there a chart of visual priority anywhere. eg, when two objects occupy the same area, which one is shown. I know firebars, banzai bills, twister particles, and koopaling projectiles are very high while doors and oneways are pretty low.
Here’s a use for snowballs in more open world levels. Have snowballs through out the level that can be used to hit ? blocks to go up vines to go to new areas.
One cool thing I learned while making my level “Lemmy’s Spikeball Spectacu-liar” Is that when you place a parachute on a spike ball and put it in an upward facing pipe, it will shoot out before the parachute activates. I use this as a sort of shooting platform that you have to spin jump off of. (if anyone is interested the level code is: ST2-GBV-QLF)
When people say something like "The spike ball destroys itself when the job is done lll leaving nothing to collect behind, unlike the shell" I always think "but what about the dry bones shell?" Its faster and the only other main difference is that it requires a spring to start moving. The spike ball is amazing, but in most general cases, the dry bones shell gets the job done better. Lets take a moment to give the dry bones shell the love it deserves! (And no, I'm not asking for a dry bones shell breakdown)
Another discovery I made recently: when a Spike Ball or Snowball is destroyed by the Moon, it does not award points to the player, while the Spike enemy does.
Today I learned that if you put a cannon on any piranha plant that faces you and turns when you're on a different direction, you can have a rotating turret. Now I'm building a level around this
3:32 Don’t you mean ‘brick-blocks’ here? ‘Block-blocks’ are those solid ones that can only be destroyed by a bomb or a Spiny shellmet. If I recall correctly, according to the Ceave lingo that I happily adhere to.
Commenting because I didn't see this anywhere, but a spike ball from a spike in the SMB1 or SMB3 gamestyle will also become affected by gravity by coming into contact with a sloped surface

I sure like using Spike’s Balls
Mario likes scratching his dick on them.
Why didn’t you say and resumes it’s basic behavior when it lands
I used a combination of Spike Balls and Clear Pipes to create a Donkey Kong-like segment in one of my courses.
I was gonna use it when luigi has to avoid it by going into clear pipes, but i gave up halfway through
Currently thinking about the fact that Alpharad himself recommended this channel in his Super Alpharad World 2 videos
Pretty hype.
I agree
Hi Chris.
Currently thinking about the fact that you have your own megalovaina cover

The fact that you spent 20 minutes talking about a Spike Ball makes me concerned for how long the Muncher video will be

Antitypical it has so many uses in contraptions and a ton of other types of levels
@@goldenspade5812 its a spike block but it can be defeated. Thats it
@@gabriellaedwards9yearoldwi255 Spike block that can be defeated AND is affected by gravity, that last part is pretty important lol
@@SoluKissin and can also blow up bob-ombs
When the world needed him most, he vanished, but when he returned, he resumed basic behavior when he landed
HE VANISHED AGAIN
i love how he calls bricks “block blocks”
I stand by my decision.
@@TobiasBergdorf BLOK
They're never called bricks. And if they are please tell me because I'm looking for one.
I think he goes with block blocks bcuz while smb1 has a brick block, in other game styles like Mario World blocks aren't exactly bricks.
@@BrokenG-String they all say "block"
I recently hit 1000 hours on this game yet your videos still manage to teach me something I didn’t know
never thought I'd be so early for one of these. whew, twenty minutes, too? you're a saint man these videos are hella inspiring for my courses
3 hours =)
Yea
The drought is finally *OVER* , good to see you uploading again man
Rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin'
Please do more of these videos, they are really interesting and have helped me with so many levels that I’ve made
Happy to hear that.
STOP FEEDING HIM COMPLIMENRS HIS SELF ESTEEM WILL BE TOO MUCHHH
@@gabriellaedwards9yearoldwi255 _Good)_
Keep up the good work rolling, Tobias, you rock!)
14:30 20:15 “Look, Gary! There’s my level!”
Can I have the ID?
this series is perfect
14:26 happy to see my level get featured in your video! Thanks!
How did you do that? For me it's impresive.
@@gabrielgiaogomes1338 it’s been a while since I made the level, but I believe I had a bunch of bill blasters stacked on a rail, and when spaced correctly they will shoot out at set intervals. I used a similar design to the buzzy helmet train concept
@@CelloGamerMatt oh! Thank you
Every other video: *clown car, then Lakitu's cloud*
Tobias: 10:21
Everyone: _Wait. That's illegal._
I don't get it, person of knowledge I summon you!
@@micaelgarcia1576 He always says, "A [item] in a Koopa Clown Car will pilot the vehicle towards Mario, and one in a Lakitu's Cloud will pilot the vehicle on a horizontal plane."
Until now, that is.

Thanks for the clarification!
@@micaelgarcia1576 De nada. Y, si, yo hablo un poco de español.
@@DrRank
Wait no that was autocorrect, sometimes it just decides to change misspelled words for their spanish counterparts xD
*Most information heavy IB to date* “it’s not gonna be that lo- TWENTY MINUTES!!!?? HOW DO YOU SQUEEZE ALL THAT OUT OF SOMETHING COVERED IN SPIKES!?
10:29 "A snowball in a Koopa Clown Car can be jumped off of and destroyed" proceeds to show the snowball not getting destroyed
This video was a boulder of a time.
A spike in entertainment
Oh hello Psycrow!
9:06 this reminds me of "bumper balls" from mario party & could be used for a level where you ride a snowball to the goal, similar to the same concept used with bullet bills
Yayy I've been waiting for another one of these. There's so many things you can do with the spike ball
Been looking forward to this one! The second level I ever made was a level based on Snow Pokies and I’m quite proud of it
i made one too
Definitely the best and most useful enemy we got in the Mario Maker 2 updates.
every time i come back to this channel i’m surprised at how small it is, you deserved way more attention, keep it up
I can't believe it...
The mad man actually did it
My Dude what do you mean?
13:06 thats a castanet? It sounds more like a drum then the clapping type sound castanets make
i was going to comment something like this. that's definitely not a castanetl.
From start to finish, this video was just so perfect! The metaphores/puns were actually not as bad as puns usually are, there were plenty of cool ideas, and it was super informative! Instant thumbs-up + sub!
A 20 minute item breakdown! What a treat
I only write comments for UA-camrs I need UA-cam to know that I'm engaged to their videos.
I only respond to comments that deserve the engagement. ❤️
@@TobiasBergdorf makes sense
Im always amazed at how well this series is created!
8:28
Boswer Jr.: Breathes fire
Snowball: *YOU FOOL!*
Some times I’m feeling down, but then your videos hype me up to start making a Mario level
I almost started to sleep before the video comes out
Amazing video as always! Really happy I found this channel. Surprised how much stuff I didn’t even know about this game considering I’ve played it since day 1!
Very well put together. I haven't played the game in months but this video gives me some ideas if I were to return.
I guess this video was going to happen and finally we did this.
I loved the 5 seconds of the level where my level was being played
I cannot explain to you how much you help me with this game. Please, I beg, do NOT change.
16:16 and 17:15. You put my level! Although it was for another contest but still, thank you.
2:00 smooth transition
Spike balls are literally the only thing in Mario Maker 2 with slope physics. That’s so awesome! I learnt this from Ceave Gaming’s video.
Another awesome episode as always! And thanks for adding my little troll at the end. A nice surprise that made my day! 👌
Masterpiece of a video. Great job!
I know I'm kinda late to they party, but I subbed to you because I recently just started making Mario Levels and wanted to know how everything worked.

Thanks you!
Love this series
I did not know that Giant Spike balls extended exclamation blocks from above! Thats cool! Also great bio video as always
Love it! Spike ball, will be next element focus in my next traditional world
I now know why this video took so long. Great job!
8:27 show destroys fire... Seems legit
It was worth the waiting. Lots of cool trivia that can be used!
I feel like I'm watching an interesting documentary when I watch item breakdown!
I really like the momentum physics of spike balls. It reminds me of Minecraft water: an infinite source yet still limited
You can get the Spike Ball from a Spike to roll immediately in SMB1 and SMB3 styles (just like in SMW and SMB3) by putting the Spike on a Muncher and any ground in front of the spike.
Also you can kill a Chain Chomp and leave the stake behind by putting 2 Spike Balls directly above it.
Spikeballs are honestly so useful, I use them all the time!
13:45 I love these transitions
"Is a boulder of a time" at least you attempted the pun
Is there a chart of visual priority anywhere. eg, when two objects occupy the same area, which one is shown. I know firebars, banzai bills, twister particles, and koopaling projectiles are very high while doors and oneways are pretty low.
Keep up the great work man can't wait for the ground tile episode
Spike balls are very versatile items with a lot of uses. Probably the best item in the game.
That was a very comprehensive video, great video!
Here’s a use for snowballs in more open world levels. Have snowballs through out the level that can be used to hit ? blocks to go up vines to go to new areas.
I'm happy you do what you want to do, I'll always have my notifications on for you.
you can also make spike ball launchers using fast sloped conveyor belts and an on/off block

You know when they're good when they not only get 5 Fuzzies, but 5 _big_ *rainbow* Fuzzies.
12:24 In combination with Twisters you could create River Piranha Plants!
Excellent work on this one!

OMG ANOTHER ITEM BREAKDOWN MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE
RETURN OF THE KING
Hard to believe that this series is already a year old
Nice work that video must have taken a long time
The spike ball is such a game changer, SMM wouldn't look the same if it was to be removed in a later patch or game
Another discovery I made recently: when a Spike Ball or Snowball is destroyed by the Moon, it does not award points to the player, while the Spike enemy does.
I Love your editing
new to troll levels and was looking for something to answer my questions about spike balls, thanks. i think this will inspire a new bean burrito level
Is it possible for someone to make a game inside of a game using Spike Balls? Just a question.
17:58 it's 2020. Tobias couldn't think of a pun for the spike ball. The world is falling apart.
You deserve so more subscribers for what you do, and why an upload at 1am ?
Edit: oh nevermind I'm in France son that's normal
Today I learned that if you put a cannon on any piranha plant that faces you and turns when you're on a different direction, you can have a rotating turret. Now I'm building a level around this
welcome back, item breakdown.
14:26 anyone have that level’s ID
2:00 le epic transition
3:32 ah the famous "block blocks"
Were you hired by Nintendo or something?!?
This is so good!!!
Wasn't the spikeball added in V2.0? Thanks
Wow, Spike ball is complicated. I don't think I've seen some of its properties before
Doesn't the snowball have a clear condition to beat the stage while holding one, or am I misremembering?
How do you manage to get the sound effects without the background music of the game?
Finally the spikeball is so versatile
Imagine how long it takes to make these AWSOME vids...
3:32 Don’t you mean ‘brick-blocks’ here? ‘Block-blocks’ are those solid ones that can only be destroyed by a bomb or a Spiny shellmet. If I recall correctly, according to the Ceave lingo that I happily adhere to.
Correct me if I'm wrong but you can also get snowballs from crouching and hitting Y on a mushroom platform
6:52 So...these aren't considered naked pipes?
Shhhh...
This one i was excited for
Commenting because I didn't see this anywhere, but a spike ball from a spike in the SMB1 or SMB3 gamestyle will also become affected by gravity by coming into contact with a sloped surface
I watched this with my grandma. She doesn't understand English but she likes it 👍
Can you do Fire Flower next?
Is that the Lakilester/Spike theme i hear in the background? Nice.
