Hey Little Z! I noticed youre having some issues with the controls for this game sometimes so heres a friendly tip: the direction you push the control stick is the direction your character will go! Hope this helps :P
A = Standard Attack B = Special Attack ZR/ZL= Shield R/L + Tilt Direction: Shield Slide B while you have a rainbow glow: Final Smash B in the air: Air Special A in the air: Air Normal Hope this also helps!
I love how every time Zack complains about Sonics only using side-b, they’re actually using down-b. But hey, at least it’s not his fault they didn’t bother to give Sonic a more different special-move…
It's sound based. I'm not a Sonic player but I know that you need to mash down b to charge it while you just hold side b to charge it. Also, down b is multihit while side b isn't
The mayflash stick is honestly hard to play with since it’s impossible to tilts, would love to one day see you use a smash box though, those actually let you play the game as fully intended
The Boxx, smashbox and frame1 are all different brands of all-button fightsticks made specifically for smash. They all work on GameCube, switch and pc so you can use to them for melee (OG + slippy) or ultimate. They are all also quite pricey ($200 give or take) and usually sold out (I was thinking of trying one not long back but no such luck yet ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
Here’s why I think you struggled so much with Pyra and Mythra: You’re playing them backwards. You’re using Pyra to rack up damage when you should be using Mythra, and using Mythra to finish despite Pyra’s attacks having much, much stronger knockback. Think of it like Joker and Arsine, except instead of strong attacks being on a meter, you can switch to them whenever you want/need. Mythra (white) is VERY fast, with strong combo options and mixups, and is GREAT for racking up damage. Hard to detail the combos here due to the amount of options, but fthrow is a good place to start with a lot of them. dair comes out quickly, paired with accurate short hops it can be devastating. Side B is good against melee-only characters but is easily shut down by projectile users. Pyra (red) uses strong, but MUCH slower attacks. She’s much better for finishing, her fsmash has potential to kill as low as 65% (maybe lower) and her sideb is excellent for denying ledge grabs and recovering, but it leaves you vulnerable. Her best out of shield option is dsmash in my testing. Seems to come out the fastest and can punish both sides of her. Their greatest weakness is recovery. All of their recovery options are easily exploitable. Hope this helps in the future!
It amuses me that the slime controller has, every time it's appeared, been "surprisingly good"...surely by now the surprise factor's worn off? It's just a decent controller apparently.
Can we just appreciate 2:05 the impossible recovery with Ness and in the same stock gets the perfect zero to death... I'd be so pissed if I was the other guy 😂
Would be interested to see what controls you (and all the underdogs) use for Smash. Sounds like you and Hop are similar? But Cogger uses maybe default?
I'm pretty sure Hopcats and Little Z's are GameCube controllers based on smash bros for the 3ds, same thing with Cogger. Poppt one uses a pro controller but I'm not sure what controls he has
@@diegosuarez5943 I think Poppt uses default for the pro. I remember a video where LittleZ, Hop, and him each took one stock in online battles with Zack's GameCube controller and Poppt was complaining about not knowing what some of the buttons did. Could be they all have their own custom layouts as well though.
@@aeonblast6988 99% sure poppt jumps with a shoulder button and has tilt stick but other than that its pretty close to default (i imagine X and Y are some combo of shield and grab, maybe another jump just because its default)
I literally had a dream this morning about Little Z doing this challenge with the controllers. This world is literally a simulation. It's so scary *shuddering the entire day*
0:39 Why is the moon from Majora’s Mask sad about a godless world? They literally are just the moon dropped on a planet and given a face by Majora to look more menacing.
To be fair, that last controller was not made for games that use analog sticks. It was made for emulation on the go, so stuff like a SNES emulator on your phone so you don't need to use touchscreen buttons to play Super Mario World.
3:07 @Little Z those buttons are macros, they will do whatever you assign them. They essentially replace any of the face buttons you have (ABXY) or even stick clicks (LS or RS). Mostly helpful in FPS games but I've found with the PS4 back button attachment that I also use dpad directions for other games like Uncharted and Kingdom Hearts. Up to you on if you use them and what you use them for.
2:09 “oh I’m actually dead” *says after he could’ve used his god tier double jump to recover* yeah he would’ve gotten hit by roy’s recovery but he could’ve just tech’ed
I just wanted to say that the Mayflash stick and fight sticks in general don't suck. Because they have 8 directional inputs, they're great for traditional fighting games and other 2D games from arcades. Smash just requires a stick with 360° of movement and tilt.
Now I want to see you use that weird melee control that is all buttons, specifically designed for crackhead melee players who literally destroyed their hands, but they still want to keep playing.
As a Guilty Gear and Street Fighter player, it was a lot of fun to watch you having so much trouble with the fightstick x) Wich is obviously very mediocre for smash
Yo a fellow guilty gear player, bit late to the party but it’s good to see someone playing one of the greatest game series of all time, just recently got into guilty gear through a friend showing me strive but I’ve been playing xrd on my laptop and its great, now the real question is who is your main?
I’ve never had joy con drift ever with our joy cons, yet I’ve had the lights and sync button go out on one, an r stick button go out on another, and a few random disconnections. Another thing is me and my brothers have used them for like 3 yrs now. The best way to avoid drift, is to use a different controller when possible.
I feel like this was my video suggestion, when he made a community post for video ideas, this was pretty much exactly what I suggested, but that comment didn't get any attention, maybe he saw it anyways. It was: "I had this idea for a video, where you basically play controller gun game, and by that, I mean start out with a game cube controller, and play until you win, then once you win, you downgrade to something like a pro controller, then to two joycons, then one joycon, eventually ending when you can win a game with your drum set or something similarly stupid"
it is indeed better with it, but the rumble feels like your controller is about to fall apart because of the vibrations that is why I play without rumble :)
i was hoping to see a real version of the gamecube controller with just a giant b button like the memes 😂 overall an amazing video though wow has the editing improved greatly and become way more enjoyable!
Zach getting 3 wins in a row with the slime controller in the same video where he lost the first match with his main controller is a sight to behold

I love how every time Zack complains about Sonics only using side-b, they’re actually using down-b.

Cuz fightsticks are good for any fighting game but smash
@@mitzi3262 "because smash isnt a fighting game" - some nerd on reddit probably
@Sephion15 the smash box is the name of the controller he mentioned. It's compatible with switch via GameCube adapter.
@Sephion15 the boxx and the smash box are diff, the boxx is for melee primarily i think? but the smash box is for melee and ult

This editing is really good on this one. Respect to the editor.
But the gameplay itself looks awful, it's not even close to being 60fps, and constantly stuttering.
@@TheVideogamemaster9 Yeah, I was wondering why the gameplay footage is at 30 FPS. Reminds me of Poppt1’s earlier videos.

I’ve also played the game with a fightstick and I can confidently say Little Z was certainly twiggling the stick the entire time
This video features the return of the controller Little Z casually put in his mouth.
I know Little Z keeps dunking on the Beboncool controller but it holds a place in my heart as the first controller my mom got me for my birthday
