Some may call Sephiroth a sword character, but I see him as more of a snap character.
Sephiroth is the thanos of smash
Sephiroth Challenge : Play a match only snapping your opponent.
@@planetary-rendez-vous I will call Little Z
Wayne: finally a worthy opponent
Sephiros is almost a zoner lmao
Sephiroth was the only DLC character that I actually wanted since Banjo and Kazooie. And we all know how Banjo and Kazooie turned out.
I wanted Byleth actually
Yea banjo is my favorite in this DLC
Man they really fucked Banjo up. My favorite to play as is Hero (casually) and Joker (when I try to win).
Sometimes it’s no good to be too literal
Yes, Banjo turned out to be one of the most fun DLC to play. I like playing him. You don't need to play like a zoner with him ;) .
Sephiroth is literally Nintendo being thirsty. Not 1 but *2* shirtless skins
make it double!
They say he can be shirtless in the second sentence of his dlc in the Nintendo e-shop. So yeah they know what they are doing
Banjo had 8 shirtless alts if you think about it

@@KishinAubrey Meta Knight...really? He doesn't even have a torso!
Beside that, since the name Pokemon Trainer indicates that we don't care about the 3 little monsters he has, we could say it can't really be considered has *his* shortless skins. So you could say he has 0.
Never pressed a YT notification faster. I beat and loved FF7 as a child, Ultimate is my first real Smash game that I’ve put energy into getting good at (I played N64 version as a kid) and my main has been bottom-tier Ganondorf since launch. Sephiroth feels like he was built for my exact playstyle and this guide just became my bible for the next few weeks. Thanks so much for putting this together! Committing to Sephiroth as my new main has revitalized my interest in the game 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Did you get better?
Next smash game, you will be able to naturally know how to counter act most characters.
You forgot he’s a pro at bullying Cloud
I swear every Izaw guide I see makes me want to main the character that is being presented.
Great job again!
Ikr
Every single time
He literally went over everything
even the small things
FINNALY A REAL GUIDE. everyone is just doing a move and then saying OHohOHOoooHhh SEPTH OP!?!?
Just can’t seem to catch my groove with him. But I’m gonna keep trying. Sephiroth haunted me as a kid. So I’m gonna master him.
Same here. His fall speed is throwing me off but he looks so goddamn cool that I'll keep playing him.
Hows the journy so far
@@mranxiety9995 I can't speak for Viago but this is like the hardest character I've tried to learn. Especially online.
We need a follow-up!
@@brianreynoso6269 definitely the hardest char ive played

Merry Christmas IzAw, have a great one. Clicked as soon as I saw. 🎄
Merry Christmas!
You too man!
The percents his wing appear are exact. Training mode isn't reliable.
The counter seems to act like a projectile, I blocked it with young link’s shield
I've also noticed in a few random matches against AI that if Sephiroth uses a fully-charged Shadow Flare against someone who can reflect, he gets his with *five* flares instead of three.
On Christmas eve izaw gives us a guide on giving despair.
*dis pear
@@TheEmperorHyperion haven't gotten any pears my dude
@@nkirmath9573 lol
He taught me how to make cultured barbecue
This was one of two characters who I always wanted to see in smash but never thought it would happen. Also I found this guide incredibly helpful so thanks.
Who’s the other?
@@theblackbasketball joker
@@nkirmath9573 What's,"Always" mean to you? Because Joker excited for like 2 years before he was put into Smash. Lol
@@Serralas Ok smartass you know what I mean
Me after watching other day one guides:
yeahhhh still not quite getting the hang of this character yet , better wait for Izaw
Sephiroth plays like: *tough guy finger snapping*
I'm so happy your Sephiroth guide is finally here! You're legendary as always! :)

*Sees GameCube controller buttons*
*Sweats heavily due to using a pro controller*
nah don't worry, both are great
Or Joy Con... The Pro controller is soo expensive!
@@gelofgc Btw bongiornio Narancia
Great vid, thanks so much for making it! One small note on Sephiroth's Shadow Flares, only the last orb hit will always send your opponent away. The earlier orb hits work different. They send the opponent in the opposite direction of where they were facing when hit with the original application of the move. At low percents it doesn't matter because they don't have much knockback, but at high percents it can make the difference between a kill or not. Niche info but could come in handy at high percents.
I've always played Smash casually. Competitively I'm more into your standard 2D fighters. So Smash always seemed alien to me. This video was a big help in getting me to see and understand how to apply fighting game terms into smash. These videos are appreciated! Thank you!
Sephiroth: Guardian of the ledge
Let’s go early Christmas gift. Thank you so much Izaw
Thank you SO much for this video! 🙏 It is SO appreciated. I was instantly drawn to Sephiroth's playstyle in Smash, and he just stuck with me. I have been maining Sephiroth in Smash for about a year now. Recently, I made it into my high school's Smash Bros. team. So, I've been starting to get really serious about it. There's a lot of pressure on me for being the only female on my team, and my scores have been fluctuating a lot. These tips are really going to up my gameplay, but I still need to train and study more. No matter what kind of score I end up with, I'll just be glad I made it that far with Sephiroth. 🙌🖤 I am going to use a LOT more of my neutrals now since seeing this video. 😆 Can't rely on those specials TOO much. Glory to God I found this video when I did. Again, this video is appreciated... Thank you. ⚔🤺 I wish you all the best for your channel.
An "angelic being" who uses an oversized sword from somewhere to be a god of destruction.
Sepiroth: *"i will never be a memory"*
Cloud: *"Just wait two weeks and come back to me"*
Ah yes, my favorite character: Meta Cloud. Or, Cloud Knight if you prefer.
After playing him for like several days, I wanted to see this just to make sure I was correct in my playstyle, Almost got the homie to elite smash, lets go bois. I also wanted to see the aerial combos because i have only used fair as a spacer and not a combo tool
i dont even play smash really but i still watch your videos. unlike most smash yters, you actually put care into your videos
This was so good and informative that it makes me realize how behind in practice I am.
The best guide ever on this charecter. Other channels dont even upload guides its just hype
Always looking forward to your guides. The cleanest guides around instead of random thoughts all over the place. Thank you!
in a seph ditto, you can just use side-b to easily get rid of flare (neutral-B)
Like in mu's with characters that have projectiles, shadow flare can get rid of those pesky projectiles
It can even clang with normal attacks so it may save you
Izaw's new character guides are always so worth the wait. Quality takes time dawg
Just finished the beginner art of series. I'm glad to see Sephiroth has a tutorial from IzA
The true thanos in smash
I figured out early on octoslash was op and that if you b-reverse it while recovering, you send them to the other side
You can do edgeguards the same way too since it just covers so much space
The way you pronounced "Scintilla" hurt me deeply
Lol “skin-tilla” it’s even worse when u type it out. Like a tortilla made of human flesh
@@chidionoh Even the automated subtitles caught Skin Tilla
Is “sin-tilla” the correct pronunciation?
@@ightimmaheadout3776 Yep
@@ightimmaheadout3776 fitting
I love sephiroth
This is your best guide IMO. A ton of content covered going over all of the basics through to the intricacies of gameplay. 10/10
"you'll wanna learn how to jump"
me: presses the Y button
First character since joker that everyone seems to like
Cloud: ;-;
Yeah it been forever. Fr I like Byleth and Hero.
But I agree this has been a character almost everyone can agree and be happy with
But Cloud ;-;
I see Sephiroth as a math character
Such a good guide keep the good work i also sub. Sepiroth was hard for me to use because of his sword and other players knock me easily because of the sword but ur video helpes me thank you.
*he's literally designed to have a phase 2 like a final boss*
Edit: thanks for heart Izaw
*ha*
damn he took it back
@@willberezin9471 rip me, won't change the comment though
yeah if u edit the comment the heart dissappears i believe
@@bepe4279 so I can't thank him for the heart? D:
Dude you changed my mind about sephiroth being low tier.
I was surprised how many people were so quick to call low tier given his toolset
My opinion on mains of this guy:
"Other sword fighters are too weak, so he used the guy with the big sword and can snap a bunch of times to kill you.
Can u make a guide on Sheik?
This is literally the best Christmas present i could have asked for ! I absolutley adore Sephiroth he is a better "Marth with Magic" than anything Robin promised to be (i still think Robin is cool tho)
i still cant believe he is in smash. he is my fav character out of any video game
3:48 I'm slightly high, but if I recall correctly, I'm pretty sure Lucas can just go under it like most counters
Fun facts: megaflare's actual explosion bypasses reflectors. Haven't tested whether it bypasses absorbing moves.
Sephiroth's counter also can be reflected. So if he uses his counter on moves like Ness's fsmash, not only will it not hit Ness, but it'll end up backfiring on Sephiroth, ultimately killing him.
Edit: holy shit he got the explosion down
Hitting Reflector with Ness' Bat is so cruel
So much damage to that poor Sephiroth
@@dimenzio3612 believe it or not that's how I unlocked Sephiroth and I wish I had a capture card then
Oh lol
Ness just Best Boy
this video made my head hurt @_@ lol great tutorial
Lots of good info indeed. 😊
this video is perfect, i hope i can get this good with seph
Train well my friend.
I haven't said this in years, possibly ever... but Nice Intro, man!!
18:05 I’ve never seen a kill cam with the opponent already dead
Shadow flare is weird like that
Finally I can mark revenge on that incineroar main that stole my dignity and my winning streak
Great stuff, Can't wait for Art of Sephiroth
3:20 the "c" is silent
There's another flaw or two of Sephiroth, and that's the fact he is tall and a fast faller, so he's huge combo food for characters like Falcon, Greninja, Joker, etc. Combine that with his light weight and lack of good OOS options, and rushdown combo characters can keep him in disadvantage for a long time.
My friend that I play alot mains joker and greninja. I've been trying to learn sephiroth against that and it fucking suuuuuuuuucks. You nailed it on the head, I get combo'd from 0 to 45 every stock and have to work my way past a terrible start to win
His hitbox though
The way you say "throw" is like a gift
I honestly thought this was going to be a joke guide, especially when he said “a well balanced tool kit”
lolololololol so true 😂
@@yodaoncrack325 your name says it all
Wow Sephiroth is dope
So what do you do against people that rush you down and don't give you time to space yourself or allow you to do the approaching? I feel like I'm stuck shielding way too much as Sephiroth when someone rushes me down since he doesn't have good out of shield options.
I don't know how much it matters, but there IS a gap between the shield phase and attack phase of Scintilla that you can hit him through.
always spam side b and f tilt
Theres more to sephiroth then that..
Unless you were being sarcastic lol
PLEASE do Art of Ken!
He's especially complicated, and your particularly succinct and expert way of explaining a character would be especially helpful for him.
Thanks for sending the link for this video on your discord.
Thanks to your help and my knowledge I will be able to use it perfectly. Thanks Izaw
Quality stuff Izaw nicely done!
3:15
Danish Butter Cookie fans: it’s nice how he gave credit for that clip
everyone else: ah yes, stabbing people into explosions is classic danish tradition?
I might challenge the not being able to cancel flare with projectiles part. At least with Lucario I've noticed that aura sphere can cause normal flare to detonate early and it passes through to hit Sephiroth.
I've been waiting for this!! Thanks!!!!
Joker is like my personality
On sephs counter there is a window in which you can hit him right after the counter is active and right before the attack comes out
And for his neutral special he weilds a flare
Thank you for teaching me how to Sephiroth. I am…inevitable.
man he's tough but not tough enough
how is your game so much smoother im on the same console but i way worse frames
Footstool to dair is a great idea. I guess there’s buffered OoS z-airdodge into wavedash for distance, and something like fair or dtilt.
Holy shit this guide is amazing, GREAT JOB IZAW
Hello Izaw, I love your guides. Could you make one for my main, Diddy Kong? You made one for him in sm4sh, but diddy is quite a different character in Ult. I liked your infinite guide on him, while it lasted. Keep up the good videos.
awesome guide! do you plan on covering rob at some point?
he doesn't gain another double jump he just gains another jump
Man cloud needs buffs. Cloud doesn't even feel like a character anymore. Knock him offstage and he is dead. Nair can be challenged by almost any move so nair does not work, limit is so bad now, his grab is abyssmal, and you can SDI climhazard and punish him afterwards so up b out of shield is not a real OOS option. The best you have is upsmash cause nair won't protect you at all. Cloud limit is so bad you won't die at 80 to limit crosslash midstage and it only last 15 seconds. Playing cloud is depression in ultimate. :(
Spargo says hi. Cloud is solid, easy high tier. If you like the character, then focus more on how you can improve your play than on how "bad" your main is.
@@karapatotes Spargo hasn't really gotten noticable results offline. Cloud is overrated right now cause of online. He sucks. Improving play won't make these issues bearable. Cloud is that bad. So as a result i don't play him usually unless final smashes are on or its a free for all.
Wdym?! Cloud is really good, a solid high tier for sure. If you suck with cloud, thats your problem
Me: _Spam the Flares!!_ (to the tune of Sep-hir-oth!!) and keep up shield pressure in any which way. The end.
Wow that was an amazing guide
Ganondorf: has some of the most scary smash attacks in the game
Sephiroth: Haha up-smash go br...

No lie, I can *never* pull off that speedy, multi N-Air you're showcasing
I picture Izaw's videos like the character videos in Fantasy Strike.
I might play Ultimate as much anymore, but I'm really amazed by the balancing in this game compared to Smash 4. None of the DLC characters feel *blatantly* overpowered, despite having some incredible strengths. But all of them have specific weaknesses that can be exploited, such as Sephiroth's struggle with rushdown characters that manage to get in.
Great stuff as always, man!
Sonic is the 3rd party franchise to need another representative. There are 3 possible characters to become fighters: Shadow, Tails, Dr. Eggman. In my opinion it should be Shadow to break the (-) stigma on Sonic as campy & annoying playstyle. To also break the mold of having TWO spin dashes (just why did they do this?).
We see a patern in Fighters Pass 2, that the characters are from the same company from Fighter Pass 1. We have Nintendo with Byleth & Min Min. We have Microsoft with Banjo & Steve. We have Squire Enix with Hero & Sepiroth. Now we three slots left. So far the two other companies Altus & SNK & third slot for fan favorite.
Joker from Persona franchise which is owned by Altus franchise which is also owned by Sega. So Sega can add another Sonic representative in Smash.
Shadow can be added in a way that Sakurai tells us the Assist Trophy Shadow is a "Shadow Android" & gives the possibility for the real Shadow to be playable. I think Shadow should be the one to break the Assist Trophy "fan rule".
Shadow can be sort of a mix between Sonic & Mewtwo with a hint of EDGE to the hog. A character who is nearly as fast as Sonic with Chaos powers that can teleport, throw projectiles, can even create a huge explosion (Chaos Blast). This time Sakurai needs to bring moveset from SONIC BATTLE to Shadow's moveset. Make people appreciate the Sonic Franchise.
Not to mention that Sonic's 30th anniversary is right around the corner. What better way to celebrate than to bring in "The ULTIMATE LIFEFORM" in Smash Ultimate.
He's doing the seph of the roths
Even 2 years later this guide is fantastic
I only recently learned how to do nair and orb combos consistently
One thing that is really good (that does need practice) is octaslash offstage and living
Roll or full hop twice towards ledge and octaslash down. Most the time you'll live but that's why you should get used to it so you always live
sliding up tilt is something I'm using a lot more and it can be good because it's usually noncommittal. It is very difficult to master but I think it has potential to catch people off guard and kill at 70 if you hit the sweetspot
04:08 makes sense.... he gets thru with his leg. :-D
Izaw you’re actually scaring me with this clips. I’m shaking in my boots bro
I heard that Side Smash is safe if properly spaced: can anyone confirm?
b revers neutral b cancel stuff wins me almost all games with this character. He is crazy broken but only if u actually hit ur opponent lol. Many moves are avoidable and have long end lag. He relies on reads and especially on conditioning. I promise u... if u land with neutral b, charge to second projectile, cancel .... you will almost always be able to get a hard punish in cause people panic, mostly jumping. You need to have a very good neutral to be good and have fun with this character. I like him because u either completly destroy or get completly destroyed, thats how I like smash.
You forgot to mention Sephiroth's zero to death combo he gets when he breaks someone's shield
He did mention it
@@brandonmorehouse7507 oh.. I'm a dumbass
Amazing breakdown
Hey is it me or is he Sephiroth Hella laggy due to extra animations on most of his moves
