- Who would win in a fight between Meta Knight from the Kirby franchise and Marth from Super Smash Bros Melee... also technically Fire Emblem, but let's be real, you know him from Smash, yeah? Today, we have an animated battle to determine the answer. Smash Bracket is an animated vs. battle series created by InkThinks dedicated to answering the question... Who is canonically the strongest character in Super Smash Bros. History?

WHY DID THE WINNER WIN? (See community tab for analysis. It wont fit here lol)
Alrighty! Hold the pitchforks! Let's break down this result because there were a lot of surprising factors at play that tipped the match in Marth's favor.
This match was incredibly tough to call because so many things relied on interpretation. For example, what is the size of the planet that Meta Knight cracks: Popstar? The planet changes size in just about every single iteration, which is frustrating when Meta Knight's greatest direct strength feat comes from that. In all though, we decided that the size doesn't matter as much as the given number of the power required to break it. 201 Megatons of force. By using this number, and accounting for the surface area of Meta Knight's fist, that brings us in at about 42.52 petajoules per cm^2.
This is sizably less than Marth's best feat of strength, destroying Grima (either through scaling with the goddess Naga's power or directly in Fire Emblem Heroes). Grima is so massive that the power required to destroy him would be equal to 21 Zettajoules per cm^2. It feels unintuitive, but when you do the math, Marth is hitting 493,885 times harder than Meta Knight. This applies to both of their durability as well. There are many legitimate interpretations of the Popstar feat that would give different numbers, but when going off of the only in-game, unchanging metric we are given, this is what comes out on the other end.
Speed is also a big factor here. While the size of the Kirby galaxy is unknown, potentially much smaller than our own, Meta Knight's flight across it is almost certainly FAR faster than Marth's top speed of Mach 9,700.
That being said, this is Meta Knight's Travel speed, not neceessarily the speed at which he can attack and maneuver. When we look at Meta Knight best direct feat of tight maneuvering (attacking Kirby repeatedly before he falls a single cm) he is only moving at about Mach 2. Now, while he can boost this with multipliers, those same buffs can also be immediately turned against him with Panic Smoke. Not to mention that even with modifiers he would be moving nowhere close to Marth's top speed.
It IS possible that Meta Knight could just hold out his sword and tackle Marth out of the solar system before he could blink. Given his elite strategic ability almost certainly surpasses Marth, he could assuredly think of this. The issue comes when Marth's Dark Sphere and Falchion's sealing come into play. The Darksphere would render Marth nearly invincible unless his max durability is blown past. However, in the manga this seems to function off of some sort of mind control. While likely not totally immune to it, Meta Knight has shown an ability to power through mind control before. What he has NOT shown is an immunity to divine sealing, which the Falchion has and would prevent Meta Knight from engaging with any physical attacks, including those that do not deal damage like presumably disarming, tackling, lifting, etc...
This would leave Meta Knight needing to engage with projectile attacks. These do not have impressive displays of speed or strength comparable to what Meta Knight physically puts out. Because of this, it is extremely unlikely that they would be fast or strong enough to deal damage to Marth. Even if he did, he would need to kill Marth in a single shot as the lifestone would automatically restore Marth to full health. This is an incredibly powerful ability when combined with miracle/prayer crests which allow Marth to survive one otherwise lethal attack.
This all comes together to paint a very grim picture for Meta Knight, and that is without considering the fact that Marth could kill him in a single shot. Even if it took repeated strikes though, Marth's abilites would prevent Meta Knight from healing. When that is coupled with Marth's counter abilities (which turn damage back on his attacker) and Marth's miracle/prayer crest abilities, Meta Knight is at serious risk of taking himself out, even if Marth weren't able to land an attack.
This leaves Meta Knight with a serious power, durability, and speed advantage. Even if he had a more widely-accepted strength and speed (being *far* faster and stronger than we found viable in our research) these advantages would still be largely negated. The Falchion would STILL prevent Meta Knight from making physical contact, his counter abilities would still turn back damage (which do not require Marth to physically hit them back. The damage is automatic), and the falchion would still be healing him back to full health each turn.
At the end of the day, Meta Knight is left with only a vast skill advantage due to beating the most powerful warrior in the galaxy rather than simply the planet.
Despite what would seem initially like a completely one-sided match, impressions can be deceiving. Marth brought everything he needed to the table to take the victory.
@@blackhole527 thanks! And yeah we are finally going through our backlog we have been building up. All of our remaining episodes but one will be released weekly. Then it will be a month or two until our final episode. And I am doing really well actually! Thank you!
@@nightskyblackx7422 definitely just our chosen method of research, which aligns well with what I personally view to be accurate. That said, there are dozens of totally valid interpretations for just about everything; we just do things the way that fits my mentality
What about his dimensional cape?
Meta knight beat galacta knight, the strongest warrior in the galaxy, in space. Marth's Falchion is indestructible and kills dragons, but MK's Galaxia is sentient and can control the entire universe if it were to fall to nightmare. Kirby is literally canonically infinitely powerful, beat the creator of matter and the entire universe, infinitely power crown, a machine that can bend reality and create matter, and Morpho knight, a fused galacta knight. And you can play as meta knight to do half those things.
MK has lots of other equipment featured in smash, like his down-B the dimensional cape, which allows him to manipulate space and leave and return to reality. It's also the first thing on any of his wiki pages and part of his design? Probably important to include.
@@flareos5152fire emblem heroes Marth can get to complex multiversal so shut it there neutering Marth more
@gameuniverse5973 FE Heroes isn't canon, and kirby was the only one to escape world of light. Sakurai said there were "only three" candidates that would be strong enough to survive; Bayonetta's enemies and Hades were spirits so it "wouldn't make sense" for her or Palutena to have survived. Only Kirby.
So the creator of both franchises literally said Kirby is canonically the most powerful with a clear 2nd and 3rd place within the franchise.
I am the biggest fire emblem supporter around.
Constantly defending it.
Marth does not beat meta knight, not even heroes Marth.
The Falchion DOES seal physical attacks yes. But that wouldn’t matter to someone as experienced as meta knight
Let’s break it down.
1. Marth isn’t faster than meta knight. Not even close. I shouldn’t need to elaborate there. Heroes scaling does even the playing field, but overall meta knight is consistently faster.
2. Grima gets HUMBLED by galacta knight. Grima is multi continental at most. Galacta knight? Is a casual planet buster. That’s been confirmed by a super computer. Even if we assume pop star is smaller than an average planet. Remmeber. Casual. Planet. Buster.
3. I will say. The physical attack seal is a thing. I’ve researched it. That checks out.
4. Darksphere doesn’t make the foe invincible. It weakens the person attacking the person wielding it. That’s blatantly incorrect information.
Edit: I forgot something else. The darksphere wouldn’t even work on meta knight. The darksphere works as a sorta passive hypnosis.
….meta knight resisted Fecto Elfilis’s mind control for a prolonged period of time. The darksphere ain’t doing shit.
5. Lifesphere to my knowledge doesn’t heal back to full(might be wrong on that) edit: I just looked it up. It heals 20 hp each turn. Another blatantly incorrect piece of info. It’s basically an infinite vulnerary, not a full heal.
6. galaxia directly attacks the soul, so even if darksphere makes him invincible, it wouldn’t matter, galaxia bypasses it
TLDR. Meta knight even fighting heroes Marth, should win.
I REALLY HOPE this doesn’t ruin fe’s legacy in the vs community. A really flawed research team SHOULDNT be the deciding factor.
Dimitri had PERFECT scaling so what the hell happened here?
Also. As a fe fan. I feel obligated to point this out. You have Marth win, but you don’t have the finisher be Lodestar Rush? His most iconic move? Kinda Cringe ngl fam.
I think heroes could maybe do it just from how much stronger characters are but normal marth vs meta knight is just not debatable
@@ezkling4525 here’s the funny part. Heroes Marth DOES beat meta knight
But by their own rules, Heroes Marth wouldn’t scale that high cuz no direct feats
What were they cooking fam.
Is heroes that insane? At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if either of them can one shot Sephiroth or Bayonetta or hell they make Kirby look like a sitting duck
Falchion comes from a god more powerful than Lilith who can “create star realms” so even is Meta Knight is planet Marth would at least be dwarf star
@@no_0riginality937 100%. Heroes scaling gets crazy.
This confirms it. You guys are never beating the Fire Emblem Allegations.
I hate that this is true though. The past 4 animations besides Silver vs Lucina have made a Fire Emblem character win. Silver vs Lucina doesnt even count cause it’s technically not even part of the actual bracket
NOOOOOOOOOO

Fr tho
They really thought a sorcerer could beat the Mario universe’s version of a goddess, two sword fighters beating two princesses who both proved to scale to Mario and Luigi (whom are fucking insane let’s be real) now this.
@@JugularJohn That sorcerer shared a soul with, and the powers of, a literal god. A continent-sized being at his full strength who wrought a worldwide apocalypse, and unlike Rosalina, both were extremely seasoned fighters and aren't almost feat-less.
And the princes vs princess fight has a clear disclaimer at the beginning that it isn't fully researched; the verdict was just for fun as the team managed to scrape together enough resources to finish the animation but not the research behind it.
Right? I'm so glad their channel is ending anyways
How can Marth trust a man named "Ganondorf Dragmire"? That's like the most evil name someone could have.
I mean, Isabelle managed to befriend him in this series.
@@rodrickgoldberg2324It was funny
To be fair half of Marth’s army has evil sounding names.
Because...'rule of funny' I guess?
Well...both are leaders of nations. That's all Marth knows.
OK, in reality Meta Knight stomps.
maybe without rules

@@Bayonettasnumber1fan Meta knight does win Smash Bracket themselves stated that meta knight could just push him out of the galaxy before he could blink. They countered this with the darksphere, which wouldn’t matter because he’s still stuck in space while meta knight can teleport back home, and his sealing abilities, which also wouldn’t matter because he can’t react to meta knight in time. They straight up admitted that meta knight would win and didn’t use counters that work, so by their own statements, meta knight still wins even if he’s weaker and has less hax than marth.
@@treehouseoffun1242 even though he isn’t weaker and has even more hax lmfao. MK obliterates idk why this is even a discussion
"Turn back while you can." proceeds to keep attacking Marth so he can't escape.

I read the explanation for the verdict and…
I’m still not letting go of my pitch fork.
Agreed.
@@Aaa-vp6ug I'm with ya too folks
Especially after their video from three years ago, saying that Meta Knight easily won, and that Marth's items were only strong enough to make him not get completely steamrolled...
Fun fight, but I highly disagree with the outcome.
Same
Me damn too!
Really unfortunate this series is ending, gonna need an explanation on all the FE glazing. Is it just how your rule set works?
Heroes gives FE in general a massive buff. And Smash Bracket allows Heroes to be used for the FE Cast, as controversial as it is in the Vs Community outside of Heroes' original characters.
@@GmNdWtchr96 death battle should have done multiversal Dimitri but it whatever
Bros never beating the bias allegations
@@gameuniverse5973WHY DO THAT TO GUTS😭😭 he already loses most of his matchups (unless you composite guts which gets him SMT scaling)
I mean, they're taking gameplay mechanics as literal as they can (Link using the deku mask to beat Ridley, Pokémon poison taking HP% instead of a set number, Mr Game & Watch ability to shape shift...) so it's no wonder FE, being a series in which negating the opponent's stats or damage altogether and turning their buffs to penalties that needs VERY specific skills to counteract, is doing so well against opponents that main strength is raw superiority in said stats
LMAO I'M SORRY BUT THIS IS SOOOOO INCREDIBLY FUNNY MARTH IS NEVER, IN A MILLION YEARS, GETTING NOWHERE NEAR META KNIGHT'S LEVEL AND I SAY THIS AS A FIRE EMBLEM FAN. NEVER HAVE I SEEN A FICTIONAL CHARACTER GET GLAZED SOOOOO FUCKING HARD LIKE YOU DID HERE OMFG
Heroes is canon...
@@Spyder-Marth which doesn't mean much since heroes doesn't even follow a "canon" storytelling outside of the dialogues during the chapters. You can say marth can defeat hel, but it's very much to the player interpretation.
@@Spyder-Marth doesnt scale high
He's taking into account that Kirby and MK are 8 inches, then scaling popstar down in size to account for their possible "true" strength. I mean I guess it makes sense, trees are still accurate to their size too in Popstar, but we all know that just isn't enough to to just void all accomplishments because "the threats are just as tiny."
I'm sorry, but no.
Marth does not win, it's not even as close as you try to say it is.
True, Marth doesn't win this fight. This fight was already covered and Meta Knight won last time.
@@NicholasStein-jp9cn Exactly, unless it was Fire Emblem Heroes Marth, then yes he would win on this one, but main Marth, he wouldn't stand a chance against Meta Knight.
@@foxshock5571even then he wouldn’t win
@@gavinhoyt2445 How exactly?
Because if I remember correctly, Meta Knight is a solar system level as he and his friends survived from black hole.
@foxshock5571 fire emblem heroes Marth is mainline Marth. And the version of Marth in this video is mainline marth(including heroes)
I heavily disagree but that’s fairly common with this channel, all that matters is that the animation slapped
Fr
I'm pretty sure marth is over scaled by a lot
Just in strength and skill, they seem pretty even in combat speed (albeit MK takes it by a landslide in travel speed), Marth takes hax without issue (being able to negate or even turn MK's own hax against him), durability (Darksphere negating melee damage completely, not being able to be ko'd in a single hit and having two passive full heals after every action he takes) and equipment (Falchion and the Fire Emblem being canonically indestructible while MK Galaxia Sword being alive and sentient could prove it vulnerable to skills like lethality and his dimensional cape doesn't let him attack from that other dimension)
He actually super nerfed multiversal is easy to argue for Marth with heroes
@@marioalbertomoreno3819 I don't know man speed feels off as his max speed in his last cannon appearance was 25 plus 2 from the completed fire emblem being 27 speed that's pretty slow by FE standard and with light tomes not existing till FE 4 ( technically set in the same world cuz nagas connecting thread) marth would have no relevant feats for dodging or reacting to lightspeed attacks outside of spinoffs like warriors he would only be able to out speeds wind and thunder magics.
Then there is the dark sphere ability to negate damage seeing as the binding shield has both the dark and the light sphere on it and the light sphere disables the dark sphere in combat and that marth can still takes damage after I don't think the dark sphere is actually doing anything partly cuz I think that damage negation may have more to due with gharnefs ghost that the sphere it's self
@@blankblank6214 ok, that's MetaKnight's travel speed which in DB they would've taken it as the overall speed, here in SB travel and combat speed are taken as two separate stats, and in combat, his max speed that he has shown is comparable to Warriors Marth (which they count as canon, but that's another thing altogether)
For Marth's speed while it's true that in the games he gets the spotlight doesn't have any undoubtedly lightspeed feats, Heroes more than does (the developers consider it canon, and their word carries way more weight than the fans' or the vs community) seeing as there are ample variety of light based attacks, and while in gameplay there's no dodging mechanic, in the story bits we get in events is more than obvious that they do dodge these
And even then, skills like vantage ignore speed and gives Marth's attacks priority if the opponent attacks first.
Now the Lightsphere and Darksphere, what the Lightsphere does is protect the user from mind control and corruption while giving his attacks the capacity to surpass Invincibility statuses, while the Darksphere grants invincibility to melee damage to it's user in exchange of corrupting it's mind and soul (which considering the FE cast is able to harm ghosts and other incorporeal beings with literally sticks they found at the side of the road could also mean immunity to spiritual damage made by a melee weapon, maybe?) and a passive mind control spell to anyone who tries to attack the user to disrupt the attack, so while using them against each other, the Lightsphere nullifies the Darksphere, while using them in tandem it only prevents the Darksphere's corruption on the user
@@marioalbertomoreno3819 don't forget that the speed based damage reduction got called dodge once the status version was introduced so so the implication at least for hero's is probably they attempt to avoid the atk but still get hit But due to that they take less damage. But I've never heard anyone but sakuri say FEH is cannon and he is a Smash dev outside of the FE dev sphere for the most part and never heard anyone say warriors is cannon for any FE game mostly because how are they supposed to explain the disappearance of there militarily leader, top troops, enemy generals , advisors,and plot relevant characters and items if it's not a multi verse based game collecting non cannon versions of characters (brave Veronica as an example claims to be Veronica but not the one you know ) and it's not like fire emblem hasn't dipped into multi verses before fates eirs of fates DLC, lucinas whole plot with the outrealm gates , the fire emblem cphier card game plot, and the dragons gate of FE 7 that's cannon to 6 all imply a multi verse so I can only wonder when we say canonical marth what do we mean cuz not all Marths scale to each other as hero's demonstrated by being a gatch game with heavy power creep
I wanted the “Kirby universe is OP god slaying” allegations to be put to rest…
But not like this…
Fire Emblem has won literally every other fight besides this. I'm guessing they're gonna win again
they technically lost in marth vs meta knight 1 and silver vs lucina, but whether those truly count is dubious
@@davidgoldammer348Lucina won by the fact silver admitting it also now Marth won always bet fire emblem on smash bracket
Tbh it feels like there playing favorites to Fire Emblem
@@gameuniverse5973 No, Silver beat Lucina, he’s just a dummy.
@@The_Real_Breezy tbf this is the first time in FE’s 34 year history that it is finally getting tossed a bone.
Let us win for once in our franchises history
Okay, I'm having a hard time understanding why a spin-off mobile game keeps being used as decisive evidence for characters.
It's effectively like using feats from Smash for characters.
It is mainline canon now as of Engage, not a spinoff
Heroes is canon because Engage made it canon. So it became fair to use for the series.
Fire emblem heroes is definitely canon to the main canon people hate it but multiversal to complex are actually where fire emblem chars scale to
The difference is that Heroes is considered a mainline canon entry in the FE series.
Smash Bros is just a multi series crossover, for fun. Heroes is considered canon for the Fire Emblem universe and people and feats within it are the same.
That said, they didn’t really use Heroes as pivotal evidence in this, they determined Marth’s power through methods other than Heroes.
@@hayleighpruitt4202 good god, I'd hate to ever get into this fuckin' franchise's lore.

Finally! I’ve been waiting for this fight since the Subspace Emissary! Let’s GOOO 🔥🔥
That scene in subspace was *so* cool. It's always stuck with me. It was the inspiration for the opening of the combat in this fight :)
This duo was iconic since subspace!
I'm pretty sure since Meta Knight scales to Kirby he's going to win. Kirby feats are insane compared to Fire Emblem.

Remember in Greninja v. Diddy Kong where they dismissed feats for being outliers? Yeah. Feels like they forgot how to do that at some point.
Ngl it be funny if they omit Heroes as an outlier but the game is canon xD
So was the moon punch. Didn't stop them. Although I'm not entirely sure they made the wrong call here? It doesn't feel unreasonable to compare the Falchion to Grima since the same awakened falchion could seal him. Although if we're scaling Marth to Grima we really should be factoring in Meta Knight taking multiple blows from Kirby, which gives him just stupid durability. I don't think Marth could break that.@@no_0riginality937
None of marth's stuff they mention could've been outliers though. He has several feats on that level and he could do said feats multiple times.
Also Diddy kong didn't get the moon feat cause it was a gag feat in his case. Donkey kong would've gotten it if they made his episode
@@obeserob5027 Ink has a habit of cherry picking what is or isn't an outlier. If Marth gets this consistent scaling, then Sonic gets invincibility while in super. After all, Super has very blatant feats/statements of giving him complete invincibility
@chaoscrow27 sonic did get invincibility while in super though. It just had a cap like all invincibility under bracket has.
I'd also like to point out super sonic has just as many if not more anti-feats showing he doesn't become invincible in super form
Man when Meta Knight said "Come back, when you can put up a fight." in the first one, Marth took those words to heart
*WE SEALING THE FIRE EMBLEM ALLEGATIONS WITH THIS ONE* 🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣
Gotta disagree with this one, I'm not really into power scaling but I don't think MK's traveling speed should be separate to how fast he can fight considering regardless he has to react while traveling. And I don't know much Fire emblem lore but I don't think defeating Grima is as impressive as cracking planets. Like Grima is gigantic and terrifying but saying destroying him is more impressive than destroying a planet is crazy.
Bro at this point I think a Fire Emblem character was going to win the whole thing. Like not even Joker, Sora or Sephiroth could stop them
Those rules makes them literaly inmortal is like the mario of mario vs sonic of the remake death battle

In the original fight
Your explanation for why Marth beats Meta Knight was pretty good but forgot one thing, the black hole in Magolors boss fight,
Meta Knight was able to outrun the black hole which means Meta Knights top combat speed is at least two times faster than the speed of light, and he can also survive the black hole, so his durability is also much better than you gave him credit for
He doesn’t beat meta knight tho

Funny how the gap between between fox and sonic is bigger than marth and meta knight yet this got more backlash.
Because people hate FE no matter what
The gap in speed and power between meta knight and marth is much bigger than the gap between fox and sonic.
Both in Smash and Lore, shouldn't MetaKnight win? Metaknight beat Galactica Knight in space...
Okay, while I'd like to say how Meta Knight would actually win for reasons this, reasons that, surviving a collapsing dimension, blah blah blah, I see that everyone else is already having at it, so instead, I'll say this.....
The Princess Bride reference was a welcome and well-used surprise! I commend you for it!
I feel like Meta Knights wings got shafted hard here. Hes able to make gusts of wind strong enough to catapults tens of giant boulders just by flapping them. Like he could just lift Marth if hes desperate lmao
I care not for the results of this fight this time, even if I heavily disagree. The animation was too notch, and Gabriel outdid himself. Amazing job!
"You have fought well, but you have much yet to learn"
"We all do"
That line goes WAY too hard
So does the research team.
This is the craziest FE glazing this channel has done.
Ikr
Next they're gonna do like Gatekeeper vs Superman and Gatekeeper is gonna win because in Fire Emblem Heroes he can fight death itself and beat her or some bullshit like that
Ight this is SOLID EVIDENCE they glaze fire emblem cause ain't no way Marth wins
Bro, I freakin' love y'all's take on lawful evil Ganondorf, it just suits him. And these were some exciting as Hell combos and chivalry on display!
Thank you!
This was an epic fight in Subspace, I’m glad to see it here.
These analysis and battles are both so great! One question, since this series is stated to be ending and only the backlog being worked through, will we ever receive the answer to who *would* canonically be the strongest fighter?
If everyone would be at their strongest, it would be very much likely that Bowser with the Dream Stone and Ganondorf with the Full Triforce will have the upper hand.
Both the Triforce and the Dream Stone are capable of Granting any wish - Therefore both Relics grand them Potentially Omnipotence, though both Items seemed to have Limits, the Dream Stone was able to be destroyed by Peach and Starlow trying to prevent Bowser's Wish to destroy Mario and Luigi with their Powers of Positive Feelings.
And The Triforce can be only countered by the Master Sword since it is able to repell any evil, even Evil Entities who posess the Full Triforce.
So Link has one weapon which can potentially kill Evil Allmighty Entities, so he can kill both with his Holy Weapon despite both overpowering him by far, but only he can wield the sword, meaning if someone kills him first, this means everything would in the end end in Ganon's Favor probably.
And despite the Master Sword being able to kill any evil, it is literally only Overpowered against evil. Facing off other entities that are not evil it will basically be just a regular sword with some extra magical abilities, meaning in order to defeat the others Link has to rely on his entire Arsenal which is already Godlike on its own.
It’s either Kirby, Mario, or Sonic. But because of Smash Brackets rules it would probably be someone like Bowser

It’s the bendy hakai giy
Why do my favourite characters never win :(
"Your skill is impressive. I would hate to kill you."
"Your skill is impressive. I would hate to die."
I understood that reference!
P.S. (Thanks for having me onboard as your guest at the end! It has been way too long since I played him.😎👍)
I was hoping someone would catch that reference!! It was a pleasure to have you!
@@SmashBracketI’m glad you’re sick
meta knight is 8 inchs tall, remember that
Meta knight is not 8 inches tall.
You’re literally using that from melee which isn’t canon and was a long time ago
In Kirby and the forgotten land, they’re in a human environment
Meta knight is like 2ft or 3ft tall
And size doesn’t matter as long as you have op feats
Yikes.
I love the princess bride reference in the beginning lol
SB trying not to use FE Heroes for all the scaling challenge: level impossible
How nice of them to return each other blades
Normally I would try and stay on your side but I can’t for this one 😭
Get the fire emblem characters out of the way first, that makes sense
They reached that decision by putting a vote on the community poll.
The resounding result was: "Finish the last Fire Emblem fight".
Ike: Guys we’re supposed to be a team
900 comments?!
Holy shit! That’s a lot people
I guess smash bracket really did fuck up here…
Ain’t no way
Hoo boy, I've been waiting for this one, and also dreading it a bit 😅. But either way, can't wait to see it!
Edit: Oh boy I sure do hope the ending does not cause a war 😅... Good episode, can't wait for Jr vs Pichu, have a good day
Pichu’s about to fucking die
Research on this one was NOT it unfortunately ☠
@@krazki7785 oh heya Kraz, nice to see ya around these parts 👋
@@necrostar0248 Oh wsp
@@krazki7785 nothing much, hbu?
So is there gonna be a winner/loser bracket? If so, who's moving on to the winners bracket in the fights that got remastered with different results?
Meta knight solos fire emblem
It's part of the Kirby universe and also defeated morpho knight XD
Sometimes I feel like you make the fire emblem character win out of spite. Great animation regardless
Nah FE characters are just cracked.
Heroes being canon with its whack ass scaling definitely doesn't help either
It's just wank really, only channel I've seen them wank FE by a huge margin
I mean, Lucina lost against Silver, which makes her the first FE character to win and lose a match respectively
@@RushWheelerFE is cracked, but they're not *that* cracked compared to Kirby, Xenoblade, Sonic, Zelda, and the side Super Mario games, Heroes scaling or not. I feel that this channel is overrating how powerful the Fire Emblem universe actually is, and I have played Gaiden, Blazing Blade, Awakening, Fates, Warriors, Three Houses/Hopes, Sacred Stones, the Gaiden remake, and Engage.
@@yoder6162 then you have not played heroes it has multiversal to arguable complex multiversal scaling they whoop Zelda at best universal calcs
Metaknight? The one who bested the greatest warrior in the galaxy who was sealed away because of how many planets he blew up?
That metaknight?
I’ll admit, seeing my favorite fire emblem characters win make me happy
Though the ending with Ganondorf make me worry
“Fire Emblem bias shows with this one” it really doesn’t because Meta Knight won the first time, they just came to a different result than most people.
I swear I've seen these two fight somewhere before, but i can't put my finger on it. Either way, what a brawl!
Joke aside, good work once again.
Marth didn't say "it's time to engage in this smash bracket" 0/10 episode.
But seriously well done as usual
After seeing the analysis, I have to say that Marth is way more OP than I thought and has a good amount of counters to Meta Knight's options, like being able to hit Meta Knight's ghost and blocking physical damage. So this battle will entirely depend on if Meta Knight is fast enough and strong enough to one shot Marth a few times because of Miracle with a projectile. Can't wait to see the animation, I feel like Meta Knight is going to die somewhere in the fight and the ending will be a ghost versus man battle.
Ok so basically every rematch is basically the one that had lost actually wins.
So i guess by that logic megaman is losing huh...
Dont worry my boy, you will get your chance
No, link won both iirc
I mean Mario very much clearly wins against Megaman.
The good: As always, the animation is fantastic. I particularly enjoyed Marth launching Meta Knight into his own crashing ship. That was cool as shit. Also, Princess Bride references are always a pro.
The "bad": Grrr, I don't agree with the outcome of this fight. Lowkey, this feels like one of those alternate endings you did in the past where the loser wins instead lol. I admit I don't know the most about these characters, but based on the comments I read and your past version, I think Meta Knight would take it.
I think part of the discourse is driven by how many Fire Emblem fights we had and how many they won, especially in recent history (this is the 4th Fire Emblem fight in a row and they took 0 Ls in them). Probably doesn't help that Fire Emblem is taking out fighters that many casual fans see as very powerful such as Rosalina, Palutena, and now Meta Knight.
Good to hear you're doing well :)
Really loved this animation, really cool to see a good representation of the goat Marth! But fellas stop the Kirby glazing in the comment section bruh
Not exactly a surprise.
Though Marth hitting Meta with the collapsing Halberd was.
So, Ganondorf went into a tent with a femboy swordsman? What a lucky guy
Fr fr
You need to stop watching porn
@@austinperezgk1real
What was the music used in the desert scene?
So does this mean that FE is going to win every single encounter, or is Corrin gonna flub (assuming that episode comes out)?
That episode unfortunately will not come out! Instead we are doing Bayonetta vs Sora. It’s a shame we weren’t able to go through with it. It would’ve been a great fight
@@SmashBrackety’all are NOT beating the fire emblem allegations
@@SmashBracketOoooooo looking forward to that
That is an interesting matchup
@@SmashBracketi AGREE i love bayo vs corrin so much i made a script and am now making a blog on it. thank you for this rollercoaster of researching.
@@SmashBracketI know you are busy but if you find the time could you tell whats left in your backlog so i know what to look forward to?
Overall a very nice fight. The Swordplay was exquisite.
I just wish a single fire emblem character would've lost in a researched battle. That's all I wanted. I don't even care who. Now that chance is lost with Corrin VS Bayonetta being scraped.
Not out of spite either, I just want to be convinced it's POSSIBLE for them to lose, lmfao
This was a better fight than most big budget fight scenes you'd see in things like modern-day Marvel. I feel like Meta Knight wins but then again I don't know too much about Marth but regardless this is still some insanely good animation.
I hope you're doing well and are healthy!
I had a big feeling that marth would win due to smash brackets rules. Their rules really downgraded a lot of these characters
For real
Those rules means that this isn't canonically accurate like they say
Like we all know how ridiculously broken Kirby characters are compared to fire emblem but their rules make them look weak asf
@@bedsidekhair3667 Mario characters downplay is way more insane, like, seriously.
Mario has a lot of speed feats and they make him look slow, weak and who relies in the power ups when Mario has fought against a lot of powerful enemies in BASE.
The Rosalina vs Robin and the Palutena vs Byleth are inaccurate and horrible.
Meta Knight is insanely underrated. Dude deadass speed blitzes most of the characters he’s matched up against (Zero, Marth, Riku, Shovel Knight, Link etc.)
A clash of epicness!! ^^
Plot twist: This is in SSBB
Really cool detail that you mentioned Marth holding Meta knight's blade. (It rejects and shocks people who arent worthy)
The fact that it shattered Galaxia which is literally impossible to do that-
Marth really did all that just for Ganon to send him to Brazil
That was actually a great fight, it’s also nice to see that both characters respect each other!
in the end, i expected to either see darkj meta knight, galacta knight or morpho knight (most likely) as an potentail teaser
I love this channel but man your scaling is really weird, the Sephiroth and FE Glazing is beyond ridiculous 💀
Fire Emblem is a pretty busted verse, I wouldn't be surprised if Lucina could actually beat Trunks now.
I can argue heroes Lucina can beat canon DBS trunks
DBS Trunks has the genkidama Sword that killed an undying Zamasu fusion.
Lucina would have Healing more other habilities,but she Isn't even Immortal.
Also,DBS Trunks can also Fight without His sword
A bit spiteful to make marth do a long combo after meta knight lost his sword.
Bro the second I think I’ll have more than 2 people to cheer for in the 2 round
This was a great episode! I greatly prefer it over the original even if I was rooting for Meta Knight but Marth taking it makes sense. Im also very hyped for Bowser Jr vs Pichu, its probably my second most anticipated one so im sure itll be good.
I told you guys he’s very biased to Fire Emblem
Oh my god, Marth got his wish in a rematch and it came true.
No bro, Run it back 😢
Marth is not beating Meta Knight XD, nice video though
I think they became friends.
No. Just no. I get you guys have different scaling than your usual versus debates but this is just wrong on every level. I could buy robin beating rosalina but this? Honestly
