This is a really cool concept that core a gaming when over a few years ago about how certain character archetypes emit certain emotions like zoners correlating to anger and grapplers relating to fear. This video is a perfect example of a break down of the latter and maybe you can do one on other players like sonix and how they win the mental game.
Skyjay might be THE most badass player I've ever seen on this game. Never heard of him until Collision but good GOD I was NOT ready to watch him wreak havoc in the way he did. The sheer power this man emanates is terrifying even when you aren't the one fighting him.
@@nathanlevesque7812 SpongeBoy me Bob! I have been grabbed by Luigi at 3.2% because I whiffed a Nair, and now I'm going to take 90% and will soon need an ambulance!! Argh Argh Argh Argh
What I find most impressive about Skyjay is his ability to learn from his losses. Getting the runback on Riddles at Summit showed how much he learned from those Collision sets. Kurama is one of the only players I've seen 3-0 him twice in a row.
Not sure if he's the strongest mentally but after his summit participation it is clear that his gameplay is extremely good, he analizes his opponent by limiting his plays and testing the waters, often giving a game away in the process and then proceeds to adapt to what he learned and curbstomp his opponents for the rest of the match, its crazy
discovered Skyjay legit like 2 days ago when I watfched random video of him playing nairo against his ganondorf, So I wanted to see what this incineroar player was about. Go find his video, the dude is smiling the whole time, headbanging to music, chillin, talking shit, and doing his homework between stocks/matches. very genuine dude
Could you please make a video discussing mentality in more detail, and more specifically, ways to train a better mentality for competitive Smash? It's such a huge part of the game, but almost nobody discusses it, and I'm really struggling with my own, due to getting run over at every tournament I go to
@@nathanlevesque7812 It's not exactly that easy- I don't always know when I'm in the right mindset to begin with, and then, any little thing that happens unexpectedly in the game is enough to set me off- I feel like I have no control over myself
@@wildmonkeycar It's almost like mindsets are bullshit and instead about how good you objectively are. There are no "bad mindsets" unless you're literally playing to lose.
@@Sh1v3rIZAE On the contrary, if your mind isn't in the right spot, your gameplay will suffer immensely. Did you not watch the video, which literally discussed how Skyjay abuses people's fear and mindset to manipulate them to do what he wants?
This vid is airtight dude, reminds me of Thinking Basketball. Really makes me feel like I understand what’s going on even though I just play melee. Great video
I also know a pretty good incin player, BigPapa;Bloogi, he was a high school player who graduated last year, he’s genuinely one of my best friends and such a chill guy, maybe look out for him in college smash next year!
Skyjay's play is amazing, but no player will make me like Incineroar as he's designed in Smash. His Side-B is a pretty bog-standard command grab, Down-B is a counter with extra steps and besides those moves 90% of his game plan is just mashing down-throw and down-tilt because they give you the most free, brainless follow-ups in the game besides bury throws from 0% to kill %.
Incineroar does small mini taunts after completing any of his moves successfully. Frequently these get canceled out by player movement but its a legit built in thing to the character.
@@TheFurrLord No I mean like, there is a player who he himself taunts along with incineroar after every mini-taunt, I was just asking if that player was also Skyjay
@@cgillis3989 Oh no. I think I know who you are talking about I think. There's an incineroar player known as 6:00am who i've seen do the taunts while playing. He also wears a big clock around his neck
I think it’s a matchup thing. Once top players learn the incenroar matchup and all the zoners and fast characters don’t need to learn the matchup due to their advantage it’s going to be tough for skyjay to stay on top. He needs to pickup a character to cover incenroar’s worst matchups and mixup his gameplay.
Very interesting and well thought-out. I'd suggest you consider work in games journalism, but your writing skills are obviously too good for that line of work.
Matthew 22 KJV 1-14 1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
Hope you all enjoyed the breakdown!
Who should I do an analysis on next??
Light
Buddy you gotta get into some tourneys. You’re way too good not to
VENIA!!
@@swaggyswindler6243 do you miss greninja at top level
Smub!
So basically: Incineroar is comptetively viable, thanks to Intimidate
Yes, he's viable. He's the slowest on the ground and his recovery is too risky but it's all just to balance his amazing tools
LOOOOOOLLLL
Yeah, shouldn't have let him access his hidden ability.
I keep forgetting that the name of his down b is revenge. I've been so Wolfy Pilled that I've been calling it Intimidate for months
DEEP LORE

Skyjay is so incredible, it's been a treat watching him recently :D
Wish people played more characters that instill fear into people, they're cool.
okay more Kazuya and Luigi

Also got the win on apollokage jus a day (or 2) later!
And now he man-handled Kurama at the LMBM Crew Battle

Everytime NotBae uploads I put down everything to watch the videos
Thank You For Making Me Learn Something New Today!
Really enjoyed this analysis. Love the unique approach you took.

stay neutral whether you're ahead or behind, so that reversals don't throw you off
@@nathanlevesque7812 It's not exactly that easy- I don't always know when I'm in the right mindset to begin with, and then, any little thing that happens unexpectedly in the game is enough to set me off- I feel like I have no control over myself
A better mentality for Smash is don't play this game competitively.

I think for general nomenclature, it might feel better if this video was titled
“Player Analysis: Skyjay, the power of fear”
Beautiful analysis, thank you for stitching this together.
Just got on smash again for the first time in 1 year and a half and picked up incin again, saw your guide and then this video. I enjoyed both!
This vid is airtight dude, reminds me of Thinking Basketball. Really makes me feel like I understand what’s going on even though I just play melee. Great video
your player Analysis' are so good
Nah but the opening monologue was like a modern soliloquy,
Had me hooked
Thanks so much for the analysis. Really great content!
0:23 It’s funny how Nintendo wanted to make sure Ult wasn’t a down throw to win fest like Smash 4, and yet here we are.
Nice video man❤
nice explanation, thanks for the video
Great video! love the commentary ones!
Love the analysis vids
i’d like to see a kameme breakdown since he’s like the only sora making big results
great video as always
I think we're about to see one of the most crazy times in smash. I agree with everyrhing you said. I honestly wanna see him face Leo
love your vids botnae 💪💪
goated video
You gotta do more videos likes these! Reminds me sort of like how Core-A Gaming does videos too.
_slide into the screen_ "Incineroar's Intimidate"
"The enemy [insert fighter] Attack fell!"
9:29
Did he just do a taunt irl
Is he, like, the only Incineroar player? He’s the only one I’ve ever seen
There are a couple of others, like Mystery Sol and 6AM, but nobody remotely on his level in terms of tournament results
I also know a pretty good incin player, BigPapa;Bloogi, he was a high school player who graduated last year, he’s genuinely one of my best friends and such a chill guy, maybe look out for him in college smash next year!
Would you ever do a video about peanut the little mac player?
This is what the FGC likes to call grappler brain
7:43 his what!???
mistake
These are great
Who's better inceneror or bowser
Can you breakdown master or luugi

do riddles next
Which player is the one who taunts with Incineroar when landing hits? Is it also this guy?
Incineroar does small mini taunts after completing any of his moves successfully. Frequently these get canceled out by player movement but its a legit built in thing to the character.
