+ferreroman Yeah, dude; Leffen, Mango, SFAT, Silent Wolf, etc. are just cheap scrubs who want to win for free. It's not like they're dedicated to playing the most technically demanding character in the entire game or anything.
What I love about Fox compared to other best characters in Smash games is his difficulty, Just picking him up won't make you good at the game, Fox is fucking hard to play as he requires so many inputs and combos to play well. And that's why he's my favorite "best smash character"
When I was a kid playing Fox, he was my main for just the silly reasons of 1. Fast laser pistol 2. Kung Fu moves 3. His "Gadgets" (Shine, Fox Fire, and Dash) 4. Badass taunt 5. British accent
+SSBM Tutorials I think for videos like these u should keep them out! It adds more professionalism and just all around great INFO vid without many inside jokes if ya know wat i mean! xdf
You'd be crazy to tell a fox main he's being carried by the character until you're at least a ranked player. In a lot of smaller less skilled regions the top characters are often Marths, Peaches and Shieks. Foxes get bodied until they're consistent with tech and are generally good players at the game.
+Benjamin Shields I've played much more Falcon than Fox but all of Fox's tech seems easier/smoother. Especially his wavedash but even things like stage teching seems easier.
TurbinationE So your argument is... you disagree because you have a contrary opinion? Ok cool story bro. Virtually everyone who plays the game disagrees with you.
2015-"Fox is not disadvantaged against any character" 2021- fox is ok but he prob loses to falco, gets shreked by marth and leffen makes fun of him on twitter and pick up sheik.
I think at a high level honestly, so many people are used to playing against Fox that it's a cliche and they know how to beat them so they pick other characters
@@gingerqueer22 I'd say Fox is still the best character in the game by far. It's just the fact that Marth can space him out and Falco has good hitboxes. Falco also has functional zoning. Problem with Fox for me is he's so dang hard to control
Fox is for you if: -You bitched out of your old main because you couldn't optimize anymore. -You're a try-hard. -You're ready to use the excuse that Marth is better, even though you know he isn't.
MultishineGod Based on your name I can tell my comment triggered you. Tell me, what was your old main? Sheik? Peach? When did you switch? I know you didn't start out as a space animal.
"...and if you never give up and trust your instincts." I think everyone knows what Slippy would say to this: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *five years later* ooooo...
another great video Kira! thanks! I just moved to Spain and blew out my Wii power supply lol so I'm spending more time in study and mental practice than anything. really enjoying (and already enjoyed) the vids. I post them for my scene back home all the time.
I look forward to many more of these. I've come to realize that I like characters with good (defensive) grabs more than anything else, which leads me to playing characters like marth a lot. Disjoint helps a lot
hardy ever. It puts them in so much lag, that it's at least twice as good to powersheild or use other options, such as avoiding or crouching the projectile.
You're a Fox Player if: You want to play against Mang0's Falco. You want to get chaingrabbed by M2K. You want to rape Hungrybox. You want to JV∞ a Kirby Player.
i think it should be mentioned that shine does aid in fox'es defense since it can turn pressure with a 1 frame lapse unless your opponent spaces well enough to avoid it, which is not always possible in the heat of battle.
I knew Fox was up there in the best characters list lmao i always mained him as a kid because of how fast he is and how nifty his attacks are, his basic attacks are already very impressive.
Wow this was really good (though I feel like you glossed over why shine is so powerfull with set knocknabck allowing kills at any percent and waveshining being ridiculous). I know it's not in the planned videos doc but can you do one of these for the the top 8?
more of these pls. i want to go to my first tourny and a friend is teaching me the game at the next lvl. but those videos do help a lot knowledege and char picking wise
hey man, no joke can you make a video on how to play a good Kirby? I'm really interested in what Kirby can do but there isn't much out in the internet as in how to to play Kirby and when it's best to use certain attacks. I play kirby, but knowing more about the character would be great!
Fox was a better character in Smash Bros 64 as it was before they added those annoying B + Left/Right moves in. You could be moving towards your opponents while firing the laser at them on the 64 version without having to let go of the control stick to fire. Also, you could keep the reflect shield on for as long as you want without it auto-deactivating.
+SA3Future He probably won't for a while because Ganondorf is an unpopular character and if you haven't noticed already majority of the videos uploaded have been top tier character videos.
Fox's Shine hits on frame 1, right? Therefore, its startup is 0. His jab would actually be the move that comes out in 1/60 of a second, as it takes just a frame to start up and hits on frame 2. Frame data semantics. :P
+Miles Law well, if we're gonna get this technical, then the truth is it actually comes out between 0-1 frames, because your button press will be sometime between when the game cycles frames, and shine will come out the very next cycle. but since that's ridiculously inefficient to say, it becomes a matter of public opinion whether to call it "1 frame startup" or "0 frame startup"
0:00-0:15 so in melee fox is a star but bayonetta and cloud get hate for being to broken even though all three of those characters are almost equally broken bit then again fox is hard to master unlike cloud and bayonetta
"Fox News: Fair & Balanced" had me cracking up.
more like nair and balanced
"Fox is heavily advantaged against Jigglypuff..."
Unless you're Hungrybox. :3c
Or a lunchbox ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
w8 that makes no sense
The match ups he got against Fox is actually the reason why Hungrybox had so much tought time getting to win major.
@@Pedrosa2541 not for nothing fox is the only soft counter (and the only character that has ventage in her) of jigglypuff
@@giyokon yes it does
Your a fox main if:
1: HIYAA
2: TOHA!
3: *blip blip blip blip*
4: HAAA!
5: _The winner is... Fox!_
6: mission compurete!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!
7. Hup.... FAIYAH! (sploosh) Buuuwaaaaah!
Fox is for you if:
-You want to win
Fox is for you if: TOYAH *shine noise*
*If you are willing to sacrifice your own wrists to win
you play fox if you essentially feel like its your character!
which happens to be the best , if you play fox because he is op, you are a piece of shit....

But if you learn them youre a serial killer...

1. Fast laser pistol
2. Kung Fu moves
3. His "Gadgets" (Shine, Fox Fire, and Dash)
4. Badass taunt

This series is a fantastic idea. The analysis is fairly simple, but goes deep enough to explain the character in an accurate way.
i know it's a different kind of video but c'mon kira, you still gotta include the "hey guys, you already know" :P
True
+Yeongy But noobs won't already know!
+SSBM Tutorials I think for videos like these u should keep them out! It adds more professionalism and just all around great INFO vid without many inside jokes if ya know wat i mean! xdf
I wholeheartedly agree
+Yeongy without it I didn't even know it was a Kira video till the end!

Thank god someone finally said this
I'd like to believe that but when I play Fox, everything just seems easier.
TurbinationE
Because you got used to fox maybe? Fox felt natural compared to all others imo
+Benjamin Shields I've played much more Falcon than Fox but all of Fox's tech seems easier/smoother. Especially his wavedash but even things like stage teching seems easier.
TurbinationE So your argument is... you disagree because you have a contrary opinion?
Ok cool story bro. Virtually everyone who plays the game disagrees with you.
2015-"Fox is not disadvantaged against any character" 2021- fox is ok but he prob loses to falco, gets shreked by marth and leffen makes fun of him on twitter and pick up sheik.
Since when has anyone said Fox loses to Falco? I agree he's probably slightly disadvantaged against Marth though.
I think at a high level honestly, so many people are used to playing against Fox that it's a cliche and they know how to beat them so they pick other characters
@@gingerqueer22 I'd say Fox is still the best character in the game by far. It's just the fact that Marth can space him out and Falco has good hitboxes. Falco also has functional zoning.
Problem with Fox for me is he's so dang hard to control
Fox is for you if:
-HIYAAAH
TOYAHHH
HAH
*shine sound*
-If it's common that your hands break
Seriously though, this was such a huge step up in production quality. Definitely keep up the good work!
fox is for you if:
you like memes
and if you like mishun compreet
Sick. I love it. Can't wait to see the others.
Fox is for you if:
-You bitched out of your old main because you couldn't optimize anymore.
-You're a try-hard.
-You're ready to use the excuse that Marth is better, even though you know he isn't.

MultishineGod
Based on your name I can tell my comment triggered you. Tell me, what was your old main? Sheik? Peach? When did you switch? I know you didn't start out as a space animal.
hardnewstakenharder I did wtf
hardnewstakenharder fox was my first main
i like fox and falco because they have the best moves. also sheik since I learned that you can just hold A.
I'd love to see Falco
That feel when a 2015 tutorial for a 2001 game is better than most tutorials made in 2018-2019 for current games.
Tires don't exist? If that's true then how do I drive my car?
I was looking for this
+Riley Sheehy tires don exits*
Checkmate, atheists
My goodness, this video is amazing! I haven't seen the SW multishine from DYFWI. 0:12. That's dope. Also, I love the input display at 1:40 too haha
”You never give up and trust your instincts.” Star Fox 64 reference?
I love this! I wish I had these videos when I was starting out and picking a main.
Holy shit this production value, Im so glad this channel is doing well.
5TH reason:You love star fox series
Yup! Your right 'bout dat!
im pretty sure not many melee players go for that one
I know it will take some time and all, but damn we need this overview for pretty much all characters XD
Incredible work on this one!
Awesome video! This kind of content will help a ton of new people entering the scene
"...and if you never give up and trust your instincts."
I think everyone knows what Slippy would say to this:
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO *five years later* ooooo...
Sick. Would like to see one on Falco, Sheik, or Marth next!
another great video Kira! thanks! I just moved to Spain and blew out my Wii power supply lol so I'm spending more time in study and mental practice than anything. really enjoying (and already enjoyed) the vids. I post them for my scene back home all the time.
this is a great addition to the already great tutorials, really looking forward to seeing some more of the cast. keep up the good work guys!
i would love to see more character overviews with the stats that you have at the end that shit is dope
This is so good. Falco needs to be next
I look forward to many more of these.
I've come to realize that I like characters with good (defensive) grabs more than anything else, which leads me to playing characters like marth a lot. Disjoint helps a lot
This is a really good video. I'd like to see more of these in the future.
Best video so far, I love the edition on this one!
+McRareBurger same.
Vote for the next Character Overview here!
facebook.com/ssbmtutorials
I don't have Facebook so do sheik please!
Please do falco
Do foxes and falcos actually use the shine to reflect?
hardy ever. It puts them in so much lag, that it's at least twice as good to powersheild or use other options, such as avoiding or crouching the projectile.
Dang this video series is great! Please make more! Also do Captain Falcon next!
been playing fox main since n64. hes a beast
Keep doing these! there's always a "who do i main" post in smashboards, and these help a bunch!!
!!
Are you going to do one for every character in the future?
+Q tip I hope but maybe only top 8 or 12.
+Deer Park Can't wait
+Deer Park that'd make sense
"(Fox) he is not disadvantaged against any character in the entire game."
Marth mains on FD: "Hold my Falchion"
great new series! can't wait to peep the other characters.
Fox is for you if:
You want arthritis
People on r/smashbros ridicule fox players for not knowing any better, great video explaining how fox actually works!
This is a great video, keep it up and I'd love to see more character overviews as well!
You're a Fox Player if:
You want to play against Mang0's Falco.
You want to get chaingrabbed by M2K.
You want to rape Hungrybox.
You want to JV∞ a Kirby Player.

AWESOME! Kee these vids coming. Loved it, great work.
Awesome video Kira! It'd be awesome to see these for Sheik marth and falco too.
I loved the stat chart part! I can't wait to see the others
3:49
When you're so strong that one of your three weaknesses is yourself
Incredible overview. I'd love to see something just like this for each of the top 8 (and beyond) :D
I cant wait to see more! Hoping for Falcon and Marth next!
Nice I like this style of video :) do one for Samus now!
+HydreigonMaster635 Seriously, do a Samus one!
+HydreigonMaster635 Pick Samus if you want to beat leffen
They did do a samus video
falco overview, please !
This series is going to be fucking awesome, that was so well edited. I watched it twice and i dont even play fox
Awesome! I'd love to see Falco next!
do falco next :)
I am a strong believer that Fox's speed and ability to exploit openings makes his range not concrete, but almost as good as Falco in that respect.
This NEEDS to be a series!
"Are you a fo-"
Hah! Toyah! *Laser noise .*Shine noise FIAAAHHHHH!!!1!
pretty accurate
Falco overview please
Awesome video, can't wait to see other characters, esp falco
holy hell this video is great, please make more of these for the other characters!
this was incredibly well made holy cow
Wow this was really good (though I feel like you glossed over why shine is so powerfull with set knocknabck allowing kills at any percent and waveshining being ridiculous). I know it's not in the planned videos doc but can you do one of these for the the top 8?
Please do a tutorial about simple and advanced uses of Fox's shine and how to perform it, would be awesome 💜
2:24 - Toph getting wrecked by someone who doesn't main Fox lol. Well, I mean, it is Armada though.
Dude you gotta do Dr. Mario been hunting all over your playlist for that which Character are you
Sweet Overview. Please do more overviews. Also maybe you should do some low tier videos...
more of these pls. i want to go to my first tourny and a friend is teaching me the game at the next lvl. but those videos do help a lot knowledege and char picking wise
hey man, no joke can you make a video on how to play a good Kirby? I'm really interested in what Kirby can do but there isn't much out in the internet as in how to to play Kirby and when it's best to use certain attacks.
I play kirby, but knowing more about the character would be great!
watch triple R
SSBM Tutorials will do, thanks
do these for every top tier! do falco next please
Great video! Hope to see Marth next!
I stopped playing fox when i never won games with him, good thing theres falco
+teeman9266 Yep, Falco is for people without the tech skill to play Fox.
It really had nothing to do with tech, I was just sloppy overall with Fox
+TurbinationE this is not true
cope Found the Falco player
+TurbinationE You haven't seen westballz then Lol
"Silent Wolf I'm so sorry" lmfaooo
Which category would edgeguards fit into?
Fox was a better character in Smash Bros 64 as it was before they added those annoying B + Left/Right moves in. You could be moving towards your opponents while firing the laser at them on the 64 version without having to let go of the control stick to fire. Also, you could keep the reflect shield on for as long as you want without it auto-deactivating.
Imo Fox is way stronger defensively than that, but solid video either way!
You should do a Ganon overview like this one
+SA3Future He probably won't for a while because Ganondorf is an unpopular character and if you haven't noticed already majority of the videos uploaded have been top tier character videos.
+Orbrun Ganon is popularise he is hype af
+Orbrun There will be a character review for the whole cast, it was confirmed.
Thumbs up for doing this. I think people will find it very helpful
*"Hiya, ha, C'mon, HWOAAAAH, Mission Complete!"*
I need that GIF of the fox double lasering
Don't forget being tech-chased by sheik to all hell.
Are you a real FOX PLAYER?
Well, technically, **blip**
3:13
TIRES DONT EXIST?
cars will never be the same
Tires don exits
I'm excited for the rest if this series continues :)
Yoshi is a petty good character too, because that powerful headbud 💯
What's up with the fox players that run left and right everytime?
great vid kira, keep it up
1:28 - What's with the 5?
Fox's Shine hits on frame 1, right?
Therefore, its startup is 0. His jab would actually be the move that comes out in 1/60 of a second, as it takes just a frame to start up and hits on frame 2. Frame data semantics. :P

Wow, great video! Are you gonna do more for the other characters?
3:21 could I get dat in HD pls. Pretty plsssssss!!!
great video, could you do falcon next. keep up the good work. :^)
0:00-0:15 so in melee fox is a star but bayonetta and cloud get hate for being to broken even though all three of those characters are almost equally broken bit then again fox is hard to master unlike cloud and bayonetta
This videos should be called "Why Fox McCloud is Bullshit!"
+Arson Bjork Ok.
+Royal Fenikkusu On fd only
R. Fen sike I'm Fox
I luv you daddy
Nice series! I want a second one already.
What an awesome series. Make more!
Can fox multi shine or is that just a falco thing?
