@@skellysniperyt3210 honesty it really is. A one match without losing is hard, but chalking a win with every character would be a MUCH more accurate display of skill.
Can’t believe Poppt would play such a broken character, especially when he’s top 2 at Ganon in the world. Honestly just unfair for the other competitors
I like how Ganondorf is completely different in the competitive and casual viewpoint. In competitive, he's probably the worst character, but in casual, he's a complete monster.
He still kinda mid in casuals tho XD, like it’s harder for him to get items due to his slow speed and bad disadvantage state, while his moves can’t combo well with half the items in the game
The worst thing I do as Ganondorf is instinctively use utilt ... I'm so used to using it as other characters but then I'm like WAIT I CAN'T DO THAT AS GANON
You know you are confident when you are willing to play a character, who many considers low tier, in a tournament. Epic gamer, Poppt1 is. The man won lol
doing these challenges are making him a better player overall. understanding the game from different advantage/disadvantage states beyond character matchup. Awesome work Poppt!!
Ganon puts the fear of Losing to Ganon in their head. Once you won a set I could see Jarr visually out of the zone and more frustrated. Ness/Lucina can't do that! :)
I feel like Ganon being bottom three doesn’t carry the same weight as in other games. He’s still very much able to do well in tournaments, even able to get decent results in big tournaments.
Ultimate's worst characters are above and away better than any other game's worst character's, definitely including Ganon himself in Brawl. I think a great indicator is looking at the crazy difference in matchup spreads between the worst characters of every game. Ganon and the top three worst in this game can.. do something, which isn't as easy to say with the other Smash games.
Honestly this video is my fave that you've put out. Incredible balance of game tips, exciting tournament progression, and obviously hype gameplay!! Good stuff!!
It's super dope to watch these and hear you say your thought process, and then hear the commentator basically repeat you. It's kind of beautiful in a way
I mean, you can become a master with Luigi and still be bamboozled by a rare matchup. It's really about the ability to adapt and come up with entirely new strategies mid-tournament, which is waaaay more difficult than Jordan makes it look. I think that's really one of his strengths.
Yo Poppt! I was watching yeet smash, and I saw you on their latest video! It’s called some of the sickest edge guards you’ve ever seen. It is on one of the sets where you face Jarr with Ganondorf. You should check it out! Also, just wanted to say thank you so much for making good content. Your videos all always good, and they help me get through the school day. Hope you see this to further more compliment your work!
I think your adaptation is the main reason you did so well against Jarr. Lots of people just get frustrated and focus on their offense rather than changing their plans to win neutral. You playing so many games against Jarr let you get in his head lol. That's what makes you the world's second best ganon ;)
Tbh this is amazing inspiration, if i got plungered as much as you did i would have lost my marbles. but you kept chill and got the kill, i NEED to accept that as a ganon player. thank you for this :)
@@dent5672 I used to main Ganon ik. It’s hard to time though and leaves you in such ridiculous lag that a miss is always a punish. It’s only ever used by two kinds of players. It’s either the bad players who don’t know better, or the crazy good ones who can time it/know when to go for it (very rarely). If you wanna 2 frame just reverse downsmash. Way better
I love Ganondorf, and also liked who you didn't heavily edit some of those amazing matches, so we could just watch the crazyness! Thank you Poppit for playing Ganon, now its not just Hopcat I'll watch just for Ganon in the thumbnail!
It was probably mental stamina. Ganon is scary, especially when the things that were working against him suddenly stop working and Ganon is supposed to be a bad character. Also he's probably not used to tournament level ganon and you had momentum to get a reverse 3-0 round, then 3stocked two more games. That would make anyone switch to a different character. Great job figuring out how to bully people with Ganon, I think that's what makes the character so hype; finally figuring out how to get in and wreck others after getting punted around at the start.
I was waiting for this video, AND it lived up to the hypeee!!!! This types of videos where you take a character and then use it in tournament is soooo cool
My first time leaving a comment because that was amazing. That up B last stock kill on Luigi was hype af. No one can say you aren’t the most hype underdog
You know it's smash bros when some random villager armed with a slingshot, some firecrackers and a watering can along with some other random shit he found in his shed is higher on the tier list than a dark magic wielding tyrant who possesses the triforce of power and has spread terror and fear across hyrule.
@@MrSpeltinator I think you can add an extra Nair loop to the combo on super heavies to rack up more percentage and get the kill. Plunger > dair > nair > dair > nair > dair > upair > dash > upspecial

"Is he really that bad?"
Yeah, he is, but the fact that youd ask that really shows how balanced ultimate is
Agreed, that’s why I love ultimate so much

And people say that Nintendo doesn’t care.
@@thewinstons-amenbrother1966 I agree, playing Lucario in Smash is really fun but he isn't a really good character at all

i hope five more people like ur comment so the like count matches ur pfp
rip it already passed 117 ✊😔
also poppt1 u should play halo on ur channel :)
Legend has it the second best Ganon can snap his fingers and make other players drop to their knees in fear.

Crazy that ganon counters Steve
I really love this series. In general, lots of Jordan’s series created this year are pretty hype, and I’m looking forward to the new year
I love this series too! it lets me live through him because there are no local tournamnents in my area haha

Thats why they never buffed him. He would be far to busted for casual players.
@@GreyVictory1510 nah that’s not the reason. Any reasonable buff to ganon would break him in some way

Ness/Lucina can't do that! :)
That's so true. When you realize you're about to lose to Ganon it can definitely shake you up a bit.
The fact that you didn’t even go to losers bracket, you just won your way to the top.
I feel like Ganon being bottom three doesn’t carry the same weight as in other games. He’s still very much able to do well in tournaments, even able to get decent results in big tournaments.
I feel like they really balanced the game well for once. Even Little Mac can do well despite his horrendous recovery, unlike in sm4sh
So true
Ultimate's worst characters are above and away better than any other game's worst character's, definitely including Ganon himself in Brawl. I think a great indicator is looking at the crazy difference in matchup spreads between the worst characters of every game.

That the last game you lost was 0-2 Winner Finals is absolutely nuts! What a way to dig deep and launch the comeback.
Poppt titled the previous video as "MY GANNONDORF IS GODLIKE" and this video proves that it wasn't clickbait, lol
Holy shit, that reverse 3-0 against Jarr was legendary
he got the download in the grand finals after the semis and crushed him. That´s what really makes a pro player imo, the adaption was insane
This tournament run was more useful than any Ganon tutorial I’ve seen
RONALDO is my favorite underdogs joke LMAO
We love ganon and we love poppt1 truly a gamer and a entertainer
Honestly the most entertaining smash series on youtube mate

*Plays Tweek* : "Okay yeah he's pretty bad."
5:55 you can see his face as he realizes what he said
Imagine playing Luigi for 6 consecutive years and losing to Ganondorf
Happens, no big deal

Easily the most hype Underdog

also Poppt1: forgets melee ganondorf
So glad this is actually becoming a series! I love how you can make the terrible low tiers actually seem broken.
Now Peter needs to win a tournament as Gannon to prove he’s as good as Jordan. This entire video is a big Anti-John to Peter xD
Amazing. :) Well played, and definitely worked for that win.
Good job man, great to see you having fun with it too. :D
"So dehdehbeh gets me off here, and -" that pause, though. He knows what he said and wisely tries to ignore it. 🤣🤣🤣
Honestly wasn’t expecting that, this man is hype! “Somebody get this man a ganon”
Also 10/10 5star video
I think part of the win goes to nobody being ready to fight gannon. 99% of the win goes to the perfect spacing.
I think your adaptation is the main reason you did so well against Jarr. Lots of people just get frustrated and focus on their offense rather than changing their plans to win neutral.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's basically impossible to the the 0 to death on Ganon for some reason
Probably just a perfect combination of weight, fall speed and size. Similar to how the Byleth 0 to death only works on DK
You can't do the 0 to death on super heavyweights from 0%. It works but they have to be at like 20%
