I main Rosie everywhere she’s in. In Mario Party, in Smash, in Mario Kart, just anywhere she’s an option. But smash takes some skill, so I want to get good with her so I can main her better! I will start practicing
Out of all the characters, I have the most fun playing with Rosalina and Luma. Yes, she has her flaws, but it's so satisfying getting kills with Luma or outplaying your opponents. Thanks for the guide.
Exactly. Her flaws are that some of her attacks are slow, she’s light and tall, she isn’t really fast, and Luma is fragile, but she’s so fun to play, and not that as hard to play either (definitely not as hard as Bayo.)
Yes ikr! For some reason I’m really good with rosalina. Plus Rosie has always been my favorite Mario franchise character, (and fav character in smash too)
You have to be very focused cause if you get sloppy or quit thinking your screwed I learnt how to do this with sheik because even 1 slip up can mean a stock
gotten interested with picking up rosalina and luma . She’s a fun yet menacing character once you master her neutral game and tech with luma. Also, having luma is too cute to pass up. Thks for the guide. Its informative of which moves to utilize in certain circumstances along with an introduction to one of her exclusive tech. I’ll look up to these as references for labbing
Bluefire Lost Rosa is insanely fun when you get the hang of her! Glad you enjoyed the video, if you want to learn more advanced tech be sure to check out my other Rosa guides, they may save you some time in the lab! ruclips.net/p/PLy-9QHWvXsGMuzxlRY0aUnoj8XK_k98mA
I got Rosa in a random only battle session with my friend, I had way more fun than I thought I would have with her, and am now trying to main her, thanks for the guide! It's helping me get on the right track :)
I would like to thank you very much for making these series of videos. For too long have I had to deal with people saying that Rosalina sucks in this game. Thanks to these tips and tricks, I can prove them wrong. Thank you.
I like playing pretty much every character from the roster, but Rosalina is one of the characters I never understood. This video (and your others) helped me understand how she works more. Great video and thank you.
I really like your guide! As someone who has taken smash seriously for the first time with ultimate, I found it kind of difficult to really know what to do with Rosalina since most people didn't really know how to explain it but you've done a great job so far!
I'd just really like to thank you for these guides man! Started maining Rosalina a while ago and I am finally winning games with her thanks to you, Keep up the great work!
I started playing Rosalina since I realized that very melee oriented characters made my brain stop thinking. And I juat ended up rushing in and hitting buttona. Rosa actually seems to force you to use your brain a lot and thats what I need in my life~
I’ve seen the lunar landing tech in action, but I’ve never seen just how useful it can be. Also thanks for this guide. I find Rosalina really fun and I would like to learn to play her well, but I just can’t find any good guides.
YaBoiCosmo she a TON of fun if you learn all of her mechanics. Part 2 will be out really soon (before the end of the weekend) which will have all of the more advanced strategies in it!
Was playing randoms in my 4pFFA arena and got R&L for the second time in the night. Something suddenly clicked; I started seeing/feeling so many options. I setup what felt like an impenetrable fortress underneath the Battlefield plats and 3 stocked the room. I have been totally sleeping on this deadly duo. Thanks for the mechanics assistance @NickLeo Smash!
Thanks, first time learn about Luna landing, this definitely help. I used to main rozetta (now secondary still) love the stage control with chiko. Great video
I find Rosalina & Luma to be a "Johnny" type of character, which means that I care more about doing some cool tricks than actually winning the match (as long as I don't get three-stocked, lol).
You’re totally right, they become way more fun when you actually start using them correctly. If you get the basics down with this video make sure to check out part 2 which will be out either Saturday or Sunday!
Respect plus.... I look for guides that are not lead by zero.... And this was well edited and the audio was Balanced. Reminds me of izaw. Great worked. I give like now
hey just a question, I'm getting into smash, and I noticed that Its kind of hard to make all of the specific moves with the angles of the joysticks, do you think it is easier to play with a game cube controller because of the divots? in all of the directions of the moves that you can make it seems like it would be easier with a game cube controller. thoughts? thanks!
Good question! Neither controller is really better than the other but here’s my take: Gamecube controllers are more comfy for me in button layout and the divots do make it slightly easier to get the angles you want since the game registers those same angles with its attacks. It also has 1 frame less of input lag I believe. The biggest advantage of pro controllers imo is the extra L trigger, which can make it easier to do some very high level Rosa tech with Lunar specials and DJAC
@@Nick_Leo Hey, thanks for getting back to me! I will keep that In mind, and I actually found a boxed metal Mario Game cube controller from my Wii u, and I think that that will work great. Also thanks for the help! Its always good when a content creator is nice to his fans!
I currently main Peach and Zero-Suit Samus. I have always loved Rosalina ever since I saw a play through of Mario Galaxy. I know she might not be the best main, but I would love to know how to play her well.
What are those letters and symbols in the upper left corner. I can guess that they are abbreviations of some sort, but I would like some help understanding them and/or getting a list of commonly used abbriviations. Thank you
In the aerials section, there was a weird rendering error and it came out as gibberish lol, It’s supposed to read “lunar landing” Unfortunately I didn’t catch it until after I uploaded it 😆
gizmo 370 there is no special trick other than to mash ‘A’ four times quickly then hold it. You just need to mash VERY fast when you aren’t hitting anyone
hey nickleo I have a question. look man I just got into online smash and I don't know how GSP works, and I want to get into elite smash , but every Time I win I am always only gaining 10k GSP. do you have any tips on how to gain more GSP? or how to do It faster? thanks! also IDK if you know but rosa is a dead main VS mythra and pyra due to the fact that mythras side B kills luma INSTANTLY if all the slashes connect, so your better off playing corrin against a Mythra and Pyra
Hey James! I don’t really know how the algorithm works for GSP but it seems like it moves a ton when you first start using a character and slows down a little as you play more matches, but I think the GSP of your opponent also plays a part. As for how to build it up faster, I have no idea other than to just win more often haha. But I try to not care as much about GSP and focus more on how I can play the matchup better. Also, fun fact: Rosa’s gravitational pull affects Pyra’s side B, so you don’t even need to worry about dealing with it if you’re able to react! Plus Rosa can gimp Pyra really easily by throwing her offstage and going for a low forward air.
@@jamestravaglia3510 mythras side b is really annoying for us, but shielding it can give you a free punish and if they use it offstage you can still spike them with dair 🤷🏻♂️ But you may be right that Corrin could be preferable
i love this vid a lot its very helpful but i really dont get the cancelation of her dash attack its not working for me i dont get it im jumping after doing the input but it wont work
Eric Yang yes, you just need to make sure that you input the grab at the very beginning of the dash attack for it to cancel. Once you get used to the timing you can use it every time you go for a grab!
Mayates its a bit difficult at first. Try dashing, then roll your thumb to really quickly hit A then Y, while releasing the control stick right in between the two. And when I say quickly I mean almost instantly. If you can’t get the timing at all, you could try it at 1/4 speed in training
Poulbleu Therian They still work, they just have very tight timing! (Almost at the same time) If you need extra help with canceling dash attack into Neutral air check out part 3 here: ruclips.net/video/QDabwJ5L2-Q/видео.html
Don’t be embarrassed This is by far the most frequent question I get lol. There’s no secret, they just made it so you need mash ‘A’ VERY quickly to trigger it without hitting an opponent
Wizards N' Dragons it takes a lot of practice to get consistently. The closer you get the ground the better, but if you end of buffering a ground attack you know you went too late. If you get it perfectly (2 frame window) Rosa gets 0 landing lag and you can Lunar land back air into grab at ANY %
that was just neutral air (done by pressing A in the air without a direction), but to show the side-by-side with Luma, I used the super leaf item to float
I main Rosie everywhere she’s in. In Mario Party, in Smash, in Mario Kart, just anywhere she’s an option. But smash takes some skill, so I want to get good with her so I can main her better! I will start practicing

Awesome! I don't buy a game if she's not there (So I don't have many, lol)

I did not know you could do rosa up b straight up. I feel embarrassed about a lot of losses right about now.

she have a skill like orianna my main in league of legend gotta main her too!
Yeah, she’s definitely similar to Orianna in a lot of ways!
Good guide! I finally get how Luma's AI works (real)
I have always been a main of rosa she is the best character inside out she is amazig

I'm a little late but this is incredibly in depth and super helpful, onto the next part :)
When I beat her and she joined my team. I love her luma buddy
Lunar Landing seems powerful as fuck
Need to investigate this character more
Respect plus.... I look for guides that are not lead by zero.... And this was well edited and the audio was Balanced. Reminds me of izaw. Great worked. I give like now
Great vid dude, keep it up!

Rosie is my favorite so I wanna learn her and use her as my main I don’t care what anyone says
I like using dash then jumping and then do forward air to start a combo or just kill
Rosalina’s down tilt and set up a jablock with luma if it’s not tethered and can lead up with forward smash nicely
Thnx so much. This helped me so much
Glad I could help! I'll have a video on even more advanced tech hopefully before the end of tomorrow!
You're the best!😍
@@Nick_Leo 🙏🏼
Back when I had super smash bros on my 3ds I mained Peach, Rosalina, Palutena, Lucina, and Robin
Joe Mama jeeesus, other than Lucina, you and I were a perfect match
What are the odds
Rosalina mains: these Luna outplays are sick!
Popo: hold my nana
Nice video. Thanks
Haven't watched it yet but fuck yes
Solid video
This one is so hard to play but i love love love Rosa! I want her to be my main but way too complicated and my peach and bayo still need work 😭
Rosa is definitely complicated, but super fun and satisfying when you finally get the hang of her gameplan and fancy tech.
You really shouldve showed Thoron gravitational pull.
I currently main Peach and Zero-Suit Samus. I have always loved Rosalina ever since I saw a play through of Mario Galaxy. I know she might not be the best main, but I would love to know how to play her well.
She’s a really fun and dynamic character and great to have as a co-main/secondary! I have a playlist for just Rosa guides which may help you

@@Nick_Leo ah that makes sense. I could only do it when hitting an opponent. Thanks for responding!
I can not cancel my dash attack for some reason

i love this vid a lot its very helpful but i really dont get the cancelation of her dash attack its not working for me i dont get it im jumping after doing the input but it wont work
Check out part 3 of the Rosa guide (@2:28), it goes over it in more depth!
ruclips.net/video/QDabwJ5L2-Q/видео.html
thank u soo much
What would be a good Rosalina secondary?
@@Mozzarellapumpkin any character who does well against projectiles or long disjoints would complement her well since those are potential weaknesses.
Question: for Rosa's dash grab, you perform a dash attack and cancel during the attack by pressing the grab button?
Eric Yang yes, you just need to make sure that you input the grab at the very beginning of the dash attack for it to cancel.
Once you get used to the timing you can use it every time you go for a grab!
@@Nick_Leo yea, I need more practice. I started to do her nair dancing more and it's very good at poking. Thank you for your tutorials :)
for some reasons she really reminds me of orianna from league of legends
The roach in your bed haha I 100% agree. I love that character concept tbh
How do I cancel Rosalina’s dash attack with an aireal I keep trying but it’s not working for me..
Did they patch the dash attack cancel?? I cant seem to pull it off
tip top exelent
Idk if it still works but I just can't get the hang of her dash cancel
it does still work, but you need to input the actions within 2 frames of each other (as super close to at the same time)
2 frames is 1/30 of a second
@@Nick_Leo ok ty that sounds very difficult I'll try it
Confused abit. The dash attack cancel is pretty difficult. Or it's been patched
Mayates its a bit difficult at first. Try dashing, then roll your thumb to really quickly hit A then Y, while releasing the control stick right in between the two.
And when I say quickly I mean almost instantly.
If you can’t get the timing at all, you could try it at 1/4 speed in training
Its probably not gonna get patched, 3.1.0 specifically buffed Luma dash attack because of the attack cancel tech.
RJ D definitely! I’m gonna mention that in my video tonight
I'm 10 months too late, but it's important to note that both rosa and luma d smash is stronger on the second hit
Am I doing it wrong or the jump and grab just after dash attack don't work anymore?
Poulbleu Therian They still work, they just have very tight timing! (Almost at the same time)
If you need extra help with canceling dash attack into Neutral air check out part 3 here: ruclips.net/video/QDabwJ5L2-Q/видео.html
Does she teleport? and if yes then where is it?
I feel so embarrassed for asking but how did tou rapid jab without luma being beside you and hitting an opponent? 😭😭😭
Don’t be embarrassed
This is by far the most frequent question I get lol.
There’s no secret, they just made it so you need mash ‘A’ VERY quickly to trigger it without hitting an opponent
The only thing that I'm having trouble with is lunar landing. I can't seem to manage to get the timing right.
Wizards N' Dragons it takes a lot of practice to get consistently.
The closer you get the ground the better, but if you end of buffering a ground attack you know you went too late.
If you get it perfectly (2 frame window) Rosa gets 0 landing lag and you can Lunar land back air into grab at ANY %
@@Nick_Leo Oh, that makes sense. Thank you very much for replying. I shall try and get the timing down
Its good and all but its the wrong instructions for intendo switch
I may be be a bit late for the video but at 5:45 how does she have the ears and tail?
Tempting Winner that’s an item that I used to make sure she could float in place to show her aerials more accurately. (Just for video purposes)
@@Nick_Leo Thanks for answering lol. And damn I was hoping there were little accessories you can use that I didn't know about.
Just killed my friend at 0 with no luma spike level with the stage lol (he was playing joker)
I actually don't know how to rabid jab and i would appreciate if someone helps me
Amdreed UwU you need to mash ‘A’ VERY quickly, no other tricks or gimmicks!
How do I perform the move at 5:53?
that was just neutral air (done by pressing A in the air without a direction), but to show the side-by-side with Luma, I used the super leaf item to float
NickLeo Smash Oh, okay. I think I just realized that this move only works in Smash Bros Ultimate and not Super Smash Bros.
Why am i watching this I don’t even play smash
Because you’re going to eventually? 🤷♂️ 😆

you miss it, I study lot about my "mother" Rosalina... and Luma is little devil than your miss very secret itself.......... /_|_Omar_|_\
