@Retro Aspects I loathe Sonix’s play style. It looks so obnoxious to play against. And not in the good way. Steve is obnoxious but is a bit more fun to watch because of how creative you can get. sonix is just boring to watch. I get why he plays that way tho because he wants to win. I still want him to lose though.
You really just have to treat kazuya like a dark souls boss and wait out his cycles. Idc who you main and Idc what you prefer, I feel that’s the only way to beat a kazuya player ong

You’ve had incredible talent since day one and Marss’s best videos are defined by the ones you edited. Thank you for all the entertainment you have brought us we are all fortunate to have such a talented editor producing these videos
It's kinda sad to see the kaz/riddles hate. Like I get the frustration at getting combo'd out of a game but the amount of effort and skill riddles has put into the character is insane. Learning all the tech and perfecting the 2-frame god fist to use it as well as learning all the strings is crazy. Plus a lot of the long ones you see him do aren't actually true. He's juet following the DI line and picking the option that matches it. Theres actual counter play to it and theres matches where it's stopped a lot of his stuff.
I mean yeah, there's a lot of hate. But do you see the amount of people that get hyped whenever Riddles is playing Kazuya? I've seen so many elite smash Kazuya's now its crazy. Nobody really asked for him and was probably the least hyped for smash players but now he's considered one of the most hype characters for many. He's dog shit to fight though if you're really trying to win, especially if you're aggressive.
Players who use close range characters often think Kazuya is broken. The real truth though is just that since Kazuya wants you close by, it just makes it really really hard for close range characters.
@@kurokaien18 you don't mean a swordie, you mean a spacer like byleth or corrin. Kazuya is a cringe ass character. If he doesn't lose a matchup it's +2 his favour
Tbh if ur playing a combo heavy character then kazuya Also kinda gets fked up since he needs to be on the ground. Like I think fox does good against him even tho i think fox is a rush down character
I do kinda think part of the reason Light went so hard was bc he smelt blood. Lack of people who have taken him out in this tourney so he knew he had an amazing chance.
I’ve never heard of Cosmos before Smash 4’s DLC pack 2 (Cloud Bayo Corn). After a peculiar drop in results, Cosmos is getting back to his former glory with Pythra from Ult’s DLC pack 2
The funny part is Kola’s from Georgia, so the WHOLE crowd wanted to see him win. It was hilarious being there watching everyone groan or gasp off a single Kazuya hit. Edit: I had a typo that said “grown” instead of “groan”, so these replies are hilarious with that context :).
@@jasonlobo2350 the funny thing is, before Leo, everyone thought Joker was mid with Arsene boosting him to high. Leo showed the true potential of Joker. Byleth is still mid even with Leo because his mobility and moves are slow. That is basically Leo being Leo
@@nachot6592 he’s talking a about winners. The winners use broken shit. Leo and spargo don’t win(not in this new meta) Ur opinion is the one that’s invalid

bro they made a bit at an event out of fighting a level 9 kazuya cpu. there is no character that can do what he does anywhere near his level, it’s unjustifiable
@@fishwoz17 I feel Kazuya's mostly fine but yeah, his damage is absolutely stupid. He has no right to hit *that* hard when he's a combo centered character.
@@Virtual_Rays it’s because you have to be good. It’s not the character. Plus, nobody knows how to fight against him yet. Riddles himself says kaz loses most matchups.
@@skylerharris3914 That's what I'm saying too. People are acting like Kazuya is this easy mode braindead character and are ignoring all the actual skill needed to play him and the actual downsides with him, along with the actual results showing that Kazuya isn't dominating the game at all. People need to admit that Riddles is just amazing at playing Kazuya and properly learn the match-up, or even learn the character themselves if he is so called easy mode broken.
What is the name of the song around 6:00. Sounds so good. Also, I too have a sort of gripe with dlc pack 2. Likely a skill issue on my side but steve, kazuya, pythra...mannnnnn
Never heard of that, probably because sora was hyped up for years and when he’s finally in the game, no one cares. Definitely a smash curse if anything
Never heard of that, probably because sora was hyped up for years and when he’s finally in the game, no one cares. Definitely a smash curse if anything
Actually both of their recoveries aren’t the greatest. I would say kazuya’s is better because kazuya without a jump can actually make it back to stage decently, however I think Luigi’s is less gimp-able than kazuyas considering kazuya is slowly moving through the air most the time if he’s not near ledge, and he may occasionally do a laser for a mixup. Luigi is doing several green missiles which can be hard to edguard considering the Luigi player does have the ability to mix up the timings (hence countering could backfire like in the Light Elegant set at MainStage game three), green missile does always have the chance to misfire, and green missile is a hit box and does have some frames of intangibility. Sorry this is so long I sound like a nerd 🤓
But Kazuya isnt that easy to play. Electrics aren't easy to even do like props to Riddles for learning the character. I'm tryna see Mars play Kazuya like that
I used to think Kazuya was broken but then I used Corrin... all it takes is to not only outrange Kazuya, but HEAVY punish him. Like, bait out a slow move and then hit him with a mean combo or a strong attack in general. Thing is, you have to keep doing it until you win, or gimp him offstage for the W.
Good try. Kazuya is still broken and a trash carry character. Kazuya only weakness is range and ground speed which means some keep away characters like Min Min, Belmonts, Sephiroth, Byleth or even Megaman can keep him at distance. However all Kazuya needs is just 1 interaction and that is it. It is like Fighting King Of Fighter's 94 Rugal. You can beat him, you can exploit his moves. He touches you once and you die or at least have 95% of your health gone. Sounds like a certain character we know right? -wink wink-
I'm personally not a big fan of playing the "Fighting Game Characters", but man I respect the Hell out of Riddles for making Terry and Kazuya look awesome
Kinda just feels like unnecessary Riddles hate from Marss, there's ways to play the kazuya mu correctly and Kola was absolutely not doing that. Kola might have god tier reactions and advantage state but he died to his own mashing, man needs to learn the matchup. Riddles has been grinding and making Kazuya work at top level, no one else is doing that (just like no one is learning the kazuya matchup properly.) EWGF spamming? Literally just down tilt with practically any character
@@rohanshah7559 Him not liking the character does not detract from the accomplishments of Riddles. The character exists, he played the character well. Anyone can still say they do not like how the character operates.
Bruh riddles be getting mad flamed for playing Kazuya. Mans doesn’t deserve it honestly. No matter what people say that character is not brain dead and if the character was truly that easy and that broken, we would see more kazuya’s. You don’t even need to camp him, you just cant mumnkey forward into zap punch.
I will say this is far from the end of this rivalry. Kola is constantly finding ways to adapt to Kazuya and starting to go Cloud for the matchup is something he knew he'd have to dom he likely would have won if he practiced his Cloud earlier in bracket to prepare for Riddles and Roy's bad matchups
But to make up for it he has really bad disadvantage state, very linear recovery, and as Roy you have way better frame data that you should just swarm him with. Just gotta approach him carefully.
"Nah dude its totally on you for getting hit by 1 of the only 3 moves Kazuya needs to end your stock that is safe on shield and has fucking intangibility"- every scrub in these comments. People need to get off of elite smash i swear
@@Mono-ni7yu when you have better frame data on almost every single move you have, I don't think you should get 0 to death'd for it, but I feel like it is definitely on you for not taking him careful enough.
Kazuya in Smash is like Akuma in Tekken. They are difficult to play, the combo's hard, but if you fight against those who can play them well, it's really frustrating.
Because it feels like everyone playing against him is fighting for their lives, it’s hilarious. I main him and I never root for the Kazuya because everyone feels like an underdog against him
Bro Kazuya honestly is not that bad, lmao. Nobody is ready to accept camping as a strategy, nobody is ready to accept actual smart play. The reason Kola lost is because the mans is a fucking masher 😂 Just stop mindlessly approaching Kazuya and put him in disadvantage, use ranged tools like a Z-air, properly spaced, disjointed, aerials, use ALL your tools that you can. Kazuya is not a fucking game breaker, jesus.
@@evanmiddlekauff5439 Also, I haven't complained about him. You're inferring my entire stance on Kazuya, a character I don't have much of a problem with, based on a single sentence.
Fundies,Combos.... this is what fundamentals and Combos actually look like. As a Smash player until Steve was released. Smash players are all random an play with luck on their side. Kazuya an the fighting game characters actually punish yall for being goofy. How about play Smash like a fighting game instead of trying to run away from Kazuya, gamble with him or go for gimmicks when he can just 1 combo you to death. Play a strike throw game and try not to whiff buttons in neutral or the EWGF will blow you up into death combo.
@@defianthound407 I mean that's why Melee is the better fighting game between the two from an objective mechanical point of view. It's mechanics don't encourage play like this.
@@biledox5576 Of course. Roy has a better matchup spread. It's just not fun to watch a 40/60 turn into a 100/0 for Kazuya mid-game because of one move. Only way you beat it is by camping effectively which is never fun to watch unless it's some goofy ass Steve. Fun to watch for all the wrong reasons.
@@Brotlov not true, come on, kaz has so much lag, you can just wait for a miss and punish for over 100% Just need to stop crying about a not even top 15 character when characters like Roy are just way more broken
@@biledox5576 Kaz is way more broken, but Roy's better. Also I'm talking about Riddles, the best Kazuya, being unfun to watch, not crying about some local Kazuya I can't beat. I mean it's not his fault, just like Little Macs don't ask to be camped the whole game. That's just how you have to play against them. Also, you just perfectly described my point. Bait and punish against a character as extreme as Kazuya ends up being boring to watch when the other player is playing well. When they're not playing well, they just get EWGF'd over and over into death. And there are no real amazing aggressive spacing mechanics in this game, so opponents will just platform camp and hope Kaz whiffs something because that's how you play the matchup. If you get bored and play aggressively, you die.
"broken" doesn't have to mean the best character in the game. Kazuya has very obvious flaws, but he also has some of the most mind-numbing, ludicrous strengths in the game that unless you play a certain way or play a certain character type, you're just gonna get destroyed by him
it’s also that he’s so hard to play like riddles. like getting all those inputs and everything is mindless, but first you have to be able to do them super fast and consistently, which is something riddles has been known for throughout his entire career
I would say this character is being used as much as bayo. I literally see kazuya non stop, like goddamn give the other 88 characters in the game a chance
@@MVRacer227 I feel like top players should start trying to learn different character types, specifically for problems like kazuya. Yes it would lower their amount of practise on a certain character but it’s a sacrifice well worth if it can help you out when your main doesn’t win against a certain character
@@Daniel-uy1sv its not exactly a cringe take. Marss and his fanbase are undeniably toxic. People named daniel and having bad opinions, they go hand in hand.
As someone that does not go to tournament, I love watchin kazuya. Something about it is just funny in a way that makes it ok when otherwise I wouldn't be. Just like snake camping is funny so I don't care, but sonic camping is cringe and I hate it.
There's no point in having rage or high percentages if Kazuya will do the same no matter the percentages and will always work, so boring to play against and with him lmao
People saying sh*t about Kaz but they dont realize the Kaz's skill required to do that. He sure is strong but by no mean an easy character. Riddles used to miss quite alot of conversion from enemies DI-ing his EWGF. He got better with it this time

@@juniperrodley9843 Everyone want’s to complain about touch of death Kazuya, but no one ever had a problem with Peach/Rob/Falcon, etc 😂😂
@@evanmiddlekauff5439 Kazuya's a lot more touch-of-death than any of them, though yes, combo characters are all capable of 0-death combos.
@@evanmiddlekauff5439 Also, I haven't complained about him. You're inferring my entire stance on Kazuya, a character I don't have much of a problem with, based on a single sentence.
the same as bayonetta!?!? marss.... please
00:59 Welcome to Tekken. Sakurai made Kazuya so perfectly.
Zap punch? Electric Wind God Fist the name is bad ass
Fundies,Combos.... this is what fundamentals and Combos actually look like. As a Smash player until Steve was released. Smash players are all random an play with luck on their side. Kazuya an the fighting game characters actually punish yall for being goofy. How about play Smash like a fighting game instead of trying to run away from Kazuya, gamble with him or go for gimmicks when he can just 1 combo you to death. Play a strike throw game and try not to whiff buttons in neutral or the EWGF will blow you up into death combo.
Perfectly *accurate,* but not perfect in general
@@defianthound407 I mean that's why Melee is the better fighting game between the two from an objective mechanical point of view. It's mechanics don't encourage play like this.
Marss i love your videos but your volume on the videos are hella low i gotta be blasting my volume to hear anything pls make them higher🙏😂
Marss talking about middle schoolers being cringe after beating leo
Also Marss:
I love leo, we all do, but now I so desperately want to live in a timeline where leo gets 3-0'd by Stevemain84 and gets fortnite danced on.
Marss hating my main, kazuya, hurts different
God dang it....WHY CANT I LIKE TWICE!!!!!!
Yea if you don't think Kazuya is extremely overturned at best and completely broken at worst after watching this, nothing will ever change your mind
Kazuya damage is overtuned as hell
And yet, Roy is still a way better character
@@biledox5576 Of course. Roy has a better matchup spread. It's just not fun to watch a 40/60 turn into a 100/0 for Kazuya mid-game because of one move. Only way you beat it is by camping effectively which is never fun to watch unless it's some goofy ass Steve. Fun to watch for all the wrong reasons.
@@Brotlov not true, come on, kaz has so much lag, you can just wait for a miss and punish for over 100%
Just need to stop crying about a not even top 15 character when characters like Roy are just way more broken
@@biledox5576 Kaz is way more broken, but Roy's better. Also I'm talking about Riddles, the best Kazuya, being unfun to watch, not crying about some local Kazuya I can't beat. I mean it's not his fault, just like Little Macs don't ask to be camped the whole game. That's just how you have to play against them. Also, you just perfectly described my point. Bait and punish against a character as extreme as Kazuya ends up being boring to watch when the other player is playing well. When they're not playing well, they just get EWGF'd over and over into death. And there are no real amazing aggressive spacing mechanics in this game, so opponents will just platform camp and hope Kaz whiffs something because that's how you play the matchup. If you get bored and play aggressively, you die.
Biggest rivalry? Heck no.
Kola had a meltdown
light is amazing!
If he's so broken, people would use him as much as bayo. He's very good but counter play exists
"broken" doesn't have to mean the best character in the game. Kazuya has very obvious flaws, but he also has some of the most mind-numbing, ludicrous strengths in the game that unless you play a certain way or play a certain character type, you're just gonna get destroyed by him
it’s also that he’s so hard to play like riddles. like getting all those inputs and everything is mindless, but first you have to be able to do them super fast and consistently, which is something riddles has been known for throughout his entire career
@@shepardice3775 this is why ultimate is a game of counterpicks. (Which imo is gonna get worst through the years)
I would say this character is being used as much as bayo. I literally see kazuya non stop, like goddamn give the other 88 characters in the game a chance
@@MVRacer227 I feel like top players should start trying to learn different character types, specifically for problems like kazuya. Yes it would lower their amount of practise on a certain character but it’s a sacrifice well worth if it can help you out when your main doesn’t win against a certain character
feel like everybody knows how to play against roy. oversaturation
My banjo could stop any kazuya
8:36 Marss is sounding like a real hater
Last time he won a tournament with a top player in attendance was 2 years ago at G7. He’s acting like he’s been washing the competition lol
Puff pfp and shit takes go hand in hand huh
@@Daniel-uy1sv its not exactly a cringe take. Marss and his fanbase are undeniably toxic. People named daniel and having bad opinions, they go hand in hand.
@@Wienerdog5 whatever you say Mario pfp rando
I'm bias ngl.
If it's a sword fighter winning I'm watching it
As someone that does not go to tournament, I love watchin kazuya. Something about it is just funny in a way that makes it ok when otherwise I wouldn't be. Just like snake camping is funny so I don't care, but sonic camping is cringe and I hate it.
I say we make smash fun again by banning all DLC other than Plant. Plant is cool.
Both Roy players got wrecked at this tournament
Slaty marss kinda enjoyable. Maybe nintendo should buff kazuya
Dabuz threw with that backthrow, upthrow would have killed 😔😔
Bring me back to when ike could win a major
There's no point in having rage or high percentages if Kazuya will do the same no matter the percentages and will always work, so boring to play against and with him lmao
nah he is hype and cool
He's hype, u probably like aegis and min min lmao
People saying sh*t about Kaz but they dont realize the Kaz's skill required to do that. He sure is strong but by no mean an easy character. Riddles used to miss quite alot of conversion from enemies DI-ing his EWGF. He got better with it this time
There is also literally one relevant Kazuya. When top 8 gets flooded with Kazuya mains, come back to me with the complaints.
oh come on, riddles is fucking awesome. yeah he kills at 0 but you don't see him winning majors
