@TreyMM-qz4wg Playing ultimate after playing melee is like driving your car to work, however you're on the other side of the world using a busted madcats wireless controller from 2002 with a video feed streaming from nintendo's wifi servers, also your car is in a country where you drive on the opposite side of the road and all the signs are in a language you don't understand.

This reminds me of watching a modern SF pro play an old SF game, and just how well fundamentals translated throughout the SF series. Now I'm starting to think that knowing the game is more important than carrying over really good fundamentals in Smash lol
No shit, there's 80 characters all with unique gimmicks. Just with Incineroar you have to be aware of the power of his command grab in disadvantage, a 2 frame counter breaker in advantage, and an invincible special move. Add to it that the games don't even share the same mechanics (ie watching them near the ledge, wavedashing, dash dancing, and buffering) and you get some hilarious gameplay like this.
the neutral in street fighter doesn't shift much because the movement speed and frame data is consistent across series. All of the smash bro's games vary wildly in that regard. knowing the game is a prerequisite for even being able to use fundamentals in smash bros.
@TreyMM-qz4wg if every character is influenced by those factors, how does it make the game easier? you're not yielding an advantage of any kind thanks to it. maybe you find smash bros hard because of recovering, buddy.
I think Tekken is a great example. A Tekken pro could skip all of 7 but played the shit out of 6 and TTT2 and still be able to hang in 7 with awareness, fundamentals and spacing. Even with the new mechanics, added moves and new characters. Tekken is after all is a legacy game
Destruction aside it must've felt very awkward not having to double jump after 0.2 secconds while offstage or having to angle their up b's at exactly 56.78 degrees to snap the ledge.
um actually you're wrong the angle is 56.7723 degrees sir. This is also after you fast fall for two frames, make sure your ECB is flat enough after doing the up B, and you're also in ICG. Also don't forget to remember which port you're plugged into.
Skyjay prob worst case scenario for melee players lol, incineroar is such a weird character that really punished lack of knowledge and ESPECIALLY imprecise movement
@@SSJPENGUIN bowser has a similar command grab that gives him tons of value but he's a shit irrelevant character so ur technically wrong but you're actually right
@TreyMM-qz4wg doesnt have to do with the tier of the character, there's no character that comes even close to incineroar in melee. they would have done way better against proto or sparg0 than skyjay, and would have gotten stomped even harder by riddles or acola
the real killer looks like the shorter hitstun, skyjay gets away with far longer strings than he should cuz the melee players dont buffer defensive options and cant time them with the completely different length
I mean they are used to combos basically being free form to being super strict. Fox can hit so much of a shine in melee but in ultimate you have to know his specific combos that will work in the small hitstun window.
I say it's melee players are not used to buffering, the slightly more forgiving recoveries and the air time diffrence between falling and fast falling(since most melee cast falls so fast anyways while stalling in the air is a good option in ultimate).It's like telling a jet fighter pilot to fly a civilian airplane.
@@ahmadkazan5473 I'm not saying those aren't factors.

Lol even the Melee commentators were shitting on the top Melee playerbase for lack of variety in their skillset, or just casual talk for other games.
@@rossstrickland1722 I don't actually think so. Ultimate fundamentals can work well enough in Melee to at least net them a few stocks. Which isn't an insult to melee, actually, it's a benefit for that game that players can back track from the new game back to Melee, probably another reason why it's lasted so long. The only thing required is to build off those fundamentals and implement melee's tech and movement options with them.
@@queuedjar4578 Melees tech and movement is incredibly specialized as they’d said in the video. The game is broken in so many ways that the tech is just too unique almost.
@@rossstrickland1722 melee is definitely unique, however not impossible to figure out. For one, it's much more comfortable and noticeably better for someone to go from ultimate's seventeen centuries of input lag to melee's near instant responsiveness. If you're good at ultimate's fundamentals then that itself is a good base for building melee fundamentals. Simple yet effective stuff like spacing a marth f smash or chaining sheik's many moves that combo into each other requires basically zero tech skill, and is something an ultimate player can pick up on quite easily, then just build from there. The only immediate hurdle I could see is getting over the near complete lack of buffer, though in my honest opinion it's much easier to understand how the buttons you press = the input you get in that time as compared to the buttons you press = the first immediate input and also the next three inputs in the future.
If M2K and HBox were in the mix it'd probably be a lot more interesting, mainly since M2K played inciniroar back in the beginning of Ultimate and HBox still plays Ultimate and is decent. But that might defeat the purpose of this.
Nah melee players are able to do both well. Back when wobbling was legal and even in certain matchups, melee players have top tier discipline about when to approach
@@reenans2860 you say that but there's literally an entire documentary made on how rare it is for top melee pros to camp. E.g. westballz refusing to platform camp armada even when he could have won a set against him for the first and only time ever. ruclips.net/video/z8llYT7KGdI/видео.html
@TreyMM-qz4wg lol imagine playing a game without any movement options like dash dancing, footsies, wave dashing/wavelanding, shield drops. I play both games, but ultimate players are literally playing a dumbed down game for children since Sakurai hates competitive smash.
im a cs player, i dont play fighting games, but i like watching them. melee seems like a lot more of an actual esport while a lot of other fighting games are just games. its tricky for me to call something a sport when you add characters all the time and by extension, change the rules constantly. They adding new shit to football and basketball i dont know about? nah, they facilitate an environment that rewards mastery. I feel the same way about mobas. that shit is not an esport lmao
that's a very interesting way to look at it. i think the constantly evolving meta plays a part in the mental part of the sport, the adaptation, you know? but it can also feel a little cheesy sometimes. there have been sports that have changed rules and such over time that i'm sure made a lot of competitors feel a little shafted. i know racing is one that has had plenty of rule updates, mainly for safety. i also recently learned that the pole jump didn't used to have foam on the other side of the pole, so competitors would have to go over it in a way that they could land on their feet. now, they can go backwards over it and reach higher distances.
Yeah they had no idea what was going on. Even ult players hate fighting Incin hes got so much cheese to look out for. This was still fun to watch but it would have been cool to see them fight a melee char and at least get their footing.
@@shottss5471 that wouldn't have been fun to watch tho lol the point of this type of side event is to put top players in a spot where they don't know shit
@@rexthereptile2492 Yeah. I think it's partially because the input lag and buffer are so different. But there's a lot of stuff that causes bad habits both ways.
@@colinhay1666The input lag and buffer system are insanely hard for me to adjust to going back and forth. I have so much respect for those who can be top players across multiple Smash games.
I think melee is such a unique game that you have to really change how you actually think about fighting games in general to be good at it All the other smash games (including 64) teach the importance of neutral and maintaining advantage. In Melee you can (until super high level) really just ignore that and focus almost exclusively on technical execution strings and that can just overwhelm a lot of people and get you way farther than almost any other fighting game out there.
just to start a conversation my list would be Skyjay, Acola, Riddles if he played Kazuya and it was a good day, if not Spargoat. MKLeo would be on here but bro lost a stock to EE 💀. That's unforgivable
this was painful to watch, they put it nicely, whiffing feels so bad and having to "string" together moves that cover many options and choosing them preemptively is the name of the game rather than reaction edit: im not even a melee fan or player

@@rossstrickland1722 I don't actually think so. Ultimate fundamentals can work well enough in Melee to at least net them a few stocks. Which isn't an insult to melee, actually, it's a benefit for that game that players can back track from the new game back to Melee, probably another reason why it's lasted so long. The only thing required is to build off those fundamentals and implement melee's tech and movement options with them.
@@queuedjar4578 Melees tech and movement is incredibly specialized as they’d said in the video. The game is broken in so many ways that the tech is just too unique almost.
@@queuedjar4578this is so beyond incorrect btw
@@rossstrickland1722 melee is definitely unique, however not impossible to figure out. For one, it's much more comfortable and noticeably better for someone to go from ultimate's seventeen centuries of input lag to melee's near instant responsiveness. If you're good at ultimate's fundamentals then that itself is a good base for building melee fundamentals. Simple yet effective stuff like spacing a marth f smash or chaining sheik's many moves that combo into each other requires basically zero tech skill, and is something an ultimate player can pick up on quite easily, then just build from there. The only immediate hurdle I could see is getting over the near complete lack of buffer, though in my honest opinion it's much easier to understand how the buttons you press = the input you get in that time as compared to the buttons you press = the first immediate input and also the next three inputs in the future.
If M2K and HBox were in the mix it'd probably be a lot more interesting, mainly since M2K played inciniroar back in the beginning of Ultimate and HBox still plays Ultimate and is decent. But that might defeat the purpose of this.
Leffen too. dont forget that he was area 51 on the first ult pgr
I think it’s funnier if it’s melee players who aren’t familiar with the game
yeah would be a closer game, but would defeat the purpose of seeing if melee skill carries over into ultimate skill I feel
doing this with the melee players who are actually decent at ultimate would have been fun
now im wondering what the best crew is that leffen, plup, hbox and wizzrobe could beat if properly warmed up
they could take on some combination of pgr players forsure
Seriously skilled put put golfer absolutely destroys these PGA Tour veterans when they try their hand at it 💀
The fact that it technically was a JV6 just makes this even more hilarious for me LMAOOOOO
14:02 "only big left can save us"
*Calls therapist*
When you're too melee brained to camp
Nah melee players are able to do both well. Back when wobbling was legal and even in certain matchups, melee players have top tier discipline about when to approach
@@reenans2860 you say that but there's literally an entire documentary made on how rare it is for top melee pros to camp. E.g. westballz refusing to platform camp armada even when he could have won a set against him for the first and only time ever. ruclips.net/video/z8llYT7KGdI/видео.html
@@reenans2860 if only we saw any semblance of that top tier discipline in this play, at all.
@TreyMM-qz4wg lol imagine playing a game without any movement options like dash dancing, footsies, wave dashing/wavelanding, shield drops. I play both games, but ultimate players are literally playing a dumbed down game for children since Sakurai hates competitive smash.
@@juliansanderson839 of course they're not gonna camp, they're playing in a side event that's mostly just for fun
im a cs player, i dont play fighting games, but i like watching them. melee seems like a lot more of an actual esport while a lot of other fighting games are just games. its tricky for me to call something a sport when you add characters all the time and by extension, change the rules constantly. They adding new shit to football and basketball i dont know about? nah, they facilitate an environment that rewards mastery. I feel the same way about mobas. that shit is not an esport lmao
that's a very interesting way to look at it. i think the constantly evolving meta plays a part in the mental part of the sport, the adaptation, you know? but it can also feel a little cheesy sometimes.
there have been sports that have changed rules and such over time that i'm sure made a lot of competitors feel a little shafted. i know racing is one that has had plenty of rule updates, mainly for safety. i also recently learned that the pole jump didn't used to have foam on the other side of the pole, so competitors would have to go over it in a way that they could land on their feet. now, they can go backwards over it and reach higher distances.
Btw they do change rules in sports, and in baseball they actually still invent new throws people have to learn how to hit
@@bahaman19901 Baseball is a game bro
now this is content.
i didnt even know lud was throwing a tourney!?!? is the whole thing finished im off this weekend lol this is dope
It's being streamed on his YT channel all weekend! LACS5 is going strong and swiss stage starts in less than an hour.
Why did it have to be against Incineroar
Yeah they had no idea what was going on. Even ult players hate fighting Incin hes got so much cheese to look out for. This was still fun to watch but it would have been cool to see them fight a melee char and at least get their footing.
idk but Luminosity Gaming owns like a lot of the top Ultimate players. they could have sent any one really
Incineroar is a hard matchup check character, if you don’t know how to deal with him he’ll bully you hard.
Fighter Number 69
@@shottss5471 that wouldn't have been fun to watch tho lol the point of this type of side event is to put top players in a spot where they don't know shit
Woah a top player beats top players is a completely different game, WOW! /s
Skyjay played the most online Inceneroar I've ever seen him play
This is so fun omg the skills are so specialized
Melee makes me worse at ultimate and ultimate makes me worse at Melee
real
@@rexthereptile2492 Yeah. I think it's partially because the input lag and buffer are so different. But there's a lot of stuff that causes bad habits both ways.
@@colinhay1666The input lag and buffer system are insanely hard for me to adjust to going back and forth. I have so much respect for those who can be top players across multiple Smash games.
I play ult on a pro controller so I can differentiate the two games, works like a charm and my melee techskill isn't being diluted
@@rexthereptile2492the games feel so different
I shneed more of this. Melee vs. Ultimate is tight
lmao melee players in the comments are sooooo mad wtf. Of course it's a different fucking game but they're just having fun
How is it fun to watch a pro beat unranked players? Leo vs Spargo or Hbox vs Mango, now that's fun. But not this.
@@BakingSoda4Ucope
@@chewbacachunks8644 Thanks for showcasing the average IQ of those who find this "funny" with that well developed and thought-provoking rebuttal.

@@chewbacachunks8644 Oops, I knew you were fragile but I didn't think you'd become a broken record so easily! My bad, sorry.
I wish we got to see AMSA’s Greninja
"Byleth is probably the best fire emblem character, right?" Really forgot about Roy and Lucina, huh? 😅
Lucina > Byleth > Roy
@@jaidsalgadoroy is better than byleth lmao
Literally Mkleo bias, after seeing him win so much with Byleth
what is this list 💀Roy is the best and Byleth is the worst
it should be Roy > Lucina > Byleth
@@AshenDemon this is the correct order
This shows how the mindset and skills of ult are completely different.
Cheers to all the competitors.
I think melee is such a unique game that you have to really change how you actually think about fighting games in general to be good at it
All the other smash games (including 64) teach the importance of neutral and maintaining advantage. In Melee you can (until super high level) really just ignore that and focus almost exclusively on technical execution strings and that can just overwhelm a lot of people and get you way farther than almost any other fighting game out there.
theres only like 3 players in the top 50 that wouldve been a bad option for melee players to face and skyjay was one of them
just to start a conversation my list would be Skyjay, Acola, Riddles if he played Kazuya and it was a good day, if not Spargoat.
MKLeo would be on here but bro lost a stock to EE 💀. That's unforgivable
actually Bloom could fit in here or Mute
Wouldve loved to se more melee players thrown in there
I wanted to see KoDoRiN so bad
It’s almost like they’re two diff games or something 🤔
One is a dead game and the other is full of players with dlcs, not the same
bro commentary was great
this was painful to watch, they put it nicely, whiffing feels so bad and having to "string" together moves that cover many options and choosing them preemptively is the name of the game rather than reaction
edit: im not even a melee fan or player
11:48 pls someone tell me how you unlock this song for the animal crossing stages. Having this song play would be better than some of the other ones that normally play lmao
I play forza melee and dance dance revolution when they said melee is just different thats bein real
If Leffen and Mango were in the lineup they would actually stand a chance.
Can we see the reverse now?
ludwig talking about himself while theres shit to commentate is classic lud lmao
Ooh pretty colors in the thumbnail NOW I guess I'll watch it 😉
damn zain is actually playing lucina like hes at 100,000 gsp
Wow, such a surprise that someone who spends their time grinding one specific game isn't amazing at other games that are similar but VERY DIFFERENT. Incredible, I'm so blown away that their game-specific-tech doesn't translate to a DIFFERENT game........
I'm honestly surprised no one from Melee played Chrom
4:51 LMAOOOOOOOOOOO THAT IS SO ZAIN
Amsa as ROY ..... WOW
Thats insane how all Melee Pro Player Transition to someone else
He went from Yoshi Island to Fire Emblem
Thats amazing
the first thing Zain does not even starting the game, is a wavedash on plat.
hahahahaha 4:33
Y'all don't remember the project m vs melee crew battle?
How about the project M Dennys vs IHOP crew battle
Jsus is looking at you 3:24
Shouldve thrown Leffen, Hbox, Wizzy, and Plup at him.
now I need to see this with other top Ultimate players. Specifically AK, cause imagining these players having to deal with Snake sounds hilarious,
So much fun to watch
Ultimate is a different beast but melee is always gonna be a classic and why don’t those guys play melee against the same people
This was a cool side event
Exactly the content I want to see
what channel is this streaming on youtube right?
Ludwig’s RUclips channel @Ludwig
Literally if they just didn’t hold forward their chances of taking a stock eventually would go up sm
Fuck ultimate
Was there an opposite? Ult players vs melee?
Its not that serious yall. Idk if you can tell but all the players are SMILING and you should too. Enjoy the content, its for fun
