When the commentators said something along the lines of “he’s not just little mac and a dream anymore, all of his characters have done something” I hope that was validating for you. I’ll always follow you for your little mac play, but it’s really nice to hear you respected as a player in general instead of just “the mac guy”
I was on the edge of my seat, I don't remember the last time I was so deeply invested in a smash bros match. Peanut's so fun to watch and it's awesome to see that he isn't just "haha Mac meme," he's a threat
Hey man, just wanted to let you know how much your editing has improved in your videos. Your progress as a player and a content creator is very noticeable. Keep up the good work, love the style your videos are made as!
Didn't know you had a pocket Incineroar; I find it ironic you use two very speedy characters next to the big Heel but still great to see more Incineroar representation regardless :)
Man I can't believe they called your team grimey lol. I know why they did but honestly I'd always rather fight a Mac or Incin rather than the basic ass Fox or Wolf. They're just a lot more fun to face in my opponent
Always feels good watching mac and incinaroar beat fox and wolf. Gives off. "Haha but im.playing high teirs and your playing low tiers" "I missed the part where that was my problem" Vibes. Gg. I can literally feel the effort radiating
This is why I love smash bro is my favorite fighting game it don't matter what character you use against a high tier or low they sometimes can be even and make it intense.
I started maining mac cause I do boxing and saw a boxing character, started watching your videos and mimicking certain things you do, went from an easily killable mac to a decent threat atleast against other non-pros/sweats
I feel like Roy is basically Little Mac if he lived in the middle ages, so I think it works for you. "Just give me a sword and let me hit it a bunch." Btw when do these squad strike brackets happen? Is it earlier on Tuesday? I'd love to watch em' live.
Isn't the point of a tournament to try hard to win? Yes, people can take video games too seriously in casual settings, but this is literally a competitive event.
They always say it'll be even once he has ko punch. Are they even watching the same game? My man peanut Is a technical fighter not just bashing his head on the wall my boi
Great stuff man. I wanna know though. In your final game against Beast in losers side, why did you throw out a random haymaker while Beast was sitting on plat? You had the life lead and KO punch, wouldn't it have been better to make him come to you?
Probably too soon to find the comfort and muscle memory to apply it for some. But I get the feeling that Squad Strike isn't something people take as serious anyways.
I was coming from the losers side of the bracket since I lost to ZD in winners side Since the bracket is double elimination, I had to beat MPG twice to win the tournament since MPG was in winners side of the bracket since he had not lost a set yet
From what I understand it is because Peanut was in the loser's bracket and MPG was from the winner's bracket. In grand finals, it ends with a standoff between the victor of winners bracket (MPG) and the victor of losers bracket (Peanut). If the challenger from loser's bracket beats their opponent from winner's bracket, there's this thing called a reset. It basically means that they get out of the loser's bracket and get into the winner's bracket and therefore have to beat their opponent again to win the entire tournament.
@@matthewphillips1890 LM has been limiting Peanut's really good motor skills by only limiting it to the ground, with an also horrible recovery. I want to see him main a mid tier or at least anything that's not low tier. Been a LM fan for months but it really lowers his potential of being an actually top tier player. If he can go this far with Little Mac then I wonder how further he can go with characters that aren't low tier.
@@junkyyard2273 I actually do partially agree with you. Peanut does seem to have very good reflexes and intuition, which (like you said) is held back by LM’s lacking recovery in a platformer fighting game. Although I don’t think there is any use telling him this when I’m sure Peanut is already well aware of it. He knows the struggle that is playing LM, but he really enjoys certain aspects of his play style. I also don’t think he has it in him to just give up on his “main” that he’s been grinding with for years, his struggle with LM is what’s made so popular among pro players. Peanut’s bold choice of playing what can be considered the worst character in the game gives him this very compelling under dog aura that he otherwise wouldn’t have playing some random mid/high-tier. Even still like you’d said I would be very interested in seeing him play an (objectively) better character considering how far he’s gotten with LM. In the end I think we shouldn’t try and tell him not to play a certain character over others, what matters is that he keeps his passion for the game, and if that passion comes from playing LM I’d rather sit back and pray that he wins a Major opposed to telling him he’s wrong for playing a character.

It kinda ruins the underdog story tho
@@DustyPazner the whole point of an underdog story is that they grow out of it though
@@DustyPazner mac continuing to suck isnt an underdog story at all lmfao that just means he sucks
@@PeptoAbismol Oh yeah??!! - *YOUR MOM*
@@spider-man8222 you know who else is my mom? MY MOM!
"Would you like to main this one?"
Peanut: Does it have an expoitable recovery?
"Yeah"
Peanut: Ayt
Peanut: Can they kill at 60%?
"Yeah"
Peanut: Ayt
Peanut: Does it have smash attack super armor and neutral B super armor.
“Yeah”
Peanut: Ayt
...
Peanut: Ayt
Ayt: Peanut

Peanut's Roy is just blazing and I love it. He plays it so well, counting with the mindgame skills, which makes roy scarier than he already is
Hey man, just wanted to let you know how much your editing has improved in your videos. Your progress as a player and a content creator is very noticeable. Keep up the good work, love the style your videos are made as!
3:16 *Me and my homie playing Neutral*
I know Roy is one of the more common characters in tournament but holy shit Peanut's Roy goes hard.
Just hilarious seein top tiers sweating and here comes a Mac fuckin up their whole day lmao
18:34 ZD's reaction is so funny
Didn't know you had a pocket Incineroar; I find it ironic you use two very speedy characters next to the big Heel but still great to see more Incineroar representation regardless :)
16:31 that was just like, ok he took 60 moving on
commentator 1: "It's very even tho-"
* beast dies *
commentator 2: "It was even.. until he got hit by the down tilt"
U were great in this! Keep at it
Man I can't believe they called your team grimey lol. I know why they did but honestly I'd always rather fight a Mac or Incin rather than the basic ass Fox or Wolf. They're just a lot more fun to face in my opponent
Especially when the other teams are just fox, Wolf and PT. Casters were wack this tourney I had it muted watching live
They're all hands-on fighting, tough characters. They're not sayin his team cheats or is cheap or anything like that. Just close up brawlers.
in my opponent, nice one
Always feels good watching mac and incinaroar beat fox and wolf. Gives off.
"Haha but im.playing high teirs and your playing low tiers"
"I missed the part where that was my problem"
Vibes. Gg. I can literally feel the effort radiating
Bro Peanut u should do videos like this more often so I don't have to go to VBGC all the time to see ur tournament runs
The ZD upset was nice!
he did seem upset yeah
If this is grimy, I don't wanna be clean 😤
This is why I love smash bro is my favorite fighting game it don't matter what character you use against a high tier or low they sometimes can be even and make it intense.
The Peanut Roy is on the rise
Yea he definitely suits you, Mac with more air options and more fire
They're talking about mac, brawler, and incen saying it's grimy but I love to see it.
I thought it was pretty dope
@@TheManeMan420 I'm a fan of grime
It is grimey but who doesn’t love it?
I started maining mac cause I do boxing and saw a boxing character, started watching your videos and mimicking certain things you do, went from an easily killable mac to a decent threat atleast against other non-pros/sweats
Always good seeing your gameplay mate!
I've been waiting for this for a while. Favourite content creator and so fun seeing you play with different styles
Dude you're amazing to watch Penaut!
I feel like Roy is basically Little Mac if he lived in the middle ages, so I think it works for you.
"Just give me a sword and let me hit it a bunch."
Btw when do these squad strike brackets happen? Is it earlier on Tuesday? I'd love to watch em' live.
Love both your Roy and Incin games! Can't wait to see them in tourneys
Idk why the the commentators exchange at 3:12 is funny to me
"Its okay, you can just spot dodge it"
*Peanut dies*
"Are you sure?"
"n o"
"ok."
The first games commentary was clearly homies of beast
Both beast and peanut are my favourite smash players it’s cool to see them fight each other
I loved the first set!!! Your Little Mac was just too beautiful ❤︎🥹
13:37 this matchup shows so much skill
we don't love the peanut, We love the Nut Supremacy!
Why was there so many wolfs and foxes
11:32
*FNAF 1 tune starts playing*
1:07 that is such a good kill confirm, I don't like up-bing alot because it might stale when I need it to kill
You ever consider picking up Roy or Incin as a secondary to cover mac's worst matchups? Cause you did some serious work with them.
Peanut playing his first high tier! And it's roy.
I loved the matches Peanut! Keep it up! :D
Why are there only tryhard Foxes everywhere in this tournament, sheesh.
Punch them into oblivion, Peanut, thank you.
Isn't the point of a tournament to try hard to win? Yes, people can take video games too seriously in casual settings, but this is literally a competitive event.
@@BBB-pe3ip There was literally a Fox paired with a Wolf on all of the matches shown. Have some variety, sheesh.
This maybe can have some point middle and anchor strategy when you choose your team
11:31 lmao
seeing ZD rage is one of the purest joys
damn Pean. Damn
Gotta be honest, I find Squad Smash way more interesting than normal smash.
They always say it'll be even once he has ko punch. Are they even watching the same game? My man peanut Is a technical fighter not just bashing his head on the wall my boi
no fact for today, i overslept too much after not sleeping at all
The three thumbnail guys are from my region. Philly represent
Great stuff man. I wanna know though. In your final game against Beast in losers side, why did you throw out a random haymaker while Beast was sitting on plat? You had the life lead and KO punch, wouldn't it have been better to make him come to you?
The Roy is looking great. A little bit of work on your ledge trapping and I feel like you could be a top Roy player.
Nice
Peanut is main recovery
Gawd mac
I was not expecting ZD to play Pit. Left field and a half.
Love seeing zd get mad at better players
Gimmick players*
D:
22:25 if it's not true don't let it be you.
Little Mac is the only human in smash😂 (ryu Ken terry sora Pokémon trainer kazuya samus zss and all the swordies go brr)
lol also Maria and Luigi peach and daisy
Wii fit
A. They *did* say "normal human no magic", which excludes most of those
B. Kazuya isn't a human anyway
Edit - Samus isn't really either
nut roy lets goo!
Little Mac is a meme character.
Why isn't anyone using the new slingshot tech, this is such a great tech and very practical too!
Probably too soon to find the comfort and muscle memory to apply it for some. But I get the feeling that Squad Strike isn't something people take as serious anyways.
Me thinks you shoulda brought your Ganon.
losers beats is a great set
Waiting till the day peanut plays a character that takes skill
please elaborate on the tag Peanut. please
it’s what berd calls me so I put my tag down as ponuts
@@Peanut_SSBU have you ever Googled that term young man
Deez
Don't cut the hair you look majestic
Imagine playing fox and wolf and throwing out random garbage air spam and then losing to the gigachad f teir?
12:08
Why did peanut have to go against MPG again after winning the best of 3? Can someone help me understand?
I was coming from the losers side of the bracket since I lost to ZD in winners side
Since the bracket is double elimination, I had to beat MPG twice to win the tournament since MPG was in winners side of the bracket since he had not lost a set yet

Ahh, I see. Thanks for clearing that up guys!
Please use incineroar neutral-B
Why is he fighting the same player over and over?
Because sadly those were the only matches that were recorded
These commentators are so bad lmao
star fox characters are cringe
wtf is this format??? ZD won 2 0
squad strike, best of 3, double elimination bracket
Practice more Roy. Don't let Shittle Mac limit your skill bro
Objectively little goblin is cooler than Roy
Boy roy okay but God Mac is better
Peanut just likes playing Mac
