Everything said here is true. I respect the creativity and thinking that goes into snake unlike the way some people play other campers, zoners, or whatever but also sometimes it just sucks to play against him.
12:38 I think the reason Sparg0 has been doing high back airs is to avoid nades that are on the floor (esp when Snake does shield nade). he might’ve thought it’s more consistent to always space bairs high in this MU to avoid nades regardless of if they were actually present (could help take a little off of his mental stack) but that left him open to crouch/dtilts going under bair.
It's interesting that we haven't really seen this archetype of snake at all and the way we're introduced is hurt top 8'ing every tournament he goes to. How long will it take for people to figure him out? Also sidenote just thought this was funny but I forgot that I opened hitman before clicking the video, and the music kicked in right when the set started it fit perfectly with the snake gameplay, but I was so confused like why did the editor make this set sound so serious 😭
not a top player obviously, but i feel like we've seen plenty of this archetype of snake with the likes of dio and shogun. hurt just happens to be way better lol
Watching TG this tourney DEFINITELY felt like he and Hurt were playing a somehow extremely similar way with two totally different characters. Had to be the grenades lol. Busted mechanic.
I feel like Leo's Pythra isn't as good as his other characters, but would've still been the best pick against Banjo. Way better matchup, especially when he doesn't have experience.
And Yoshidora choked against Sparg0, in my opinion. Felt like a full circle of choking between those two matches 😂😂 I was in shambles after the down b lol.
well yeah, he's denying space with slightly differing timings to ensure hurt can't encroach on that space safely, while also maintaining a threatening presence to set up his own aggression if he sees an opening in hurt's response to the bair wall.

definitely... but ngl even tho Leo is my goat and all of that, the loss is definitely Leo's fault... like bro, one of your greatest rival and now teammate Tweak has one of the best, maybe even the best, Banjo in the western hemisphere and you don't know the matchup??? Are you for real???
idk man if you see a player as good as spargo losing to a character that throws 8k projectiles and bombs and you go "oh sick gameplay" i dont want to be anywhere near you

Snake is both very cool and one of the lamest characters in the game
Playing as snake is extremely fun. Watching snake or playing against him is terrible
Yes. Tbh he's only lame because every single move does 20-30% and kills.
If it was all toned down, he'd be pretty cool
Everything said here is true. I respect the creativity and thinking that goes into snake unlike the way some people play other campers, zoners, or whatever but also sometimes it just sucks to play against him.
If it weren’t for grenades he’d be infinitely more fun to play against imo
Sephiroth effect, except actually a good character
I did not know that banjo has i frames on upb

I never thought I’d ever see both a Snake AND a Banjo player fight a top player in the same tournament
yup Leo’s back on his break
Nope he (TG) would've beaten Spargo to
Dude, TG snapped at this tournament, absolutely. Not a slouch by any means.

I wonder how much snake knowledge translates to Toon Snake (banjo)

15:05 we need more banjo sfx 😂
Really solid analysis and breakdowns of specific interactions, enjoyed this a lot!

u might be the only guy out here seeing Leo play the Joker and say, “i don’t think he should be playing the Joker.” so grats for that 🫱🏼🫲🏽
For me, this Banjo was equally as surprising as Snake winning the tourney.
Imo Torguri choked against Yoshidora
And Yoshidora choked against Sparg0, in my opinion. Felt like a full circle of choking between those two matches 😂😂 I was in shambles after the down b lol.
GA-HUH
lol. that's what I thought when marss mentioned banjo sfx
1:19-1:25 I love that this is considered “top level play” 😂
*back-air* “fuck”
*back-air* “surely this time”
*back-airs/whiffs 3 more times*
I mean it's a good backair lol.

@@nathanm6372And what tournament results do you have?
The sound effects for the banjo match was goated lol.
Banjo hit Joker with the Markiplier Forward Aerial.
Whatever sound that was at 7:37 made me think I was having auditory hallucinations on weed lmao lowkey gave me a panic attack
thats snakes down b detonate 😭 he says "there" i think
13:40 Sparg0 could've done cross slash on the 1st nakita and charged limit for limit climb hazard for the second one. I think.
Acola about to start practicing snake
Hawaii must be nice this time of year
Why you no talk about Yoshidora?
Your content is the best ❤
Marss joker also lost to a banjo, tough MU 🤔
Joker definitely wins against Banjo
definitely... but ngl even tho Leo is my goat and all of that, the loss is definitely Leo's fault... like bro, one of your greatest rival and now teammate Tweak has one of the best, maybe even the best, Banjo in the western hemisphere and you don't know the matchup??? Are you for real???
Mickeyleo!!!!!
Yeah Leo just kinda needs to hold that L. Although the Banjo matchup is unexpected and random so I don't blame him for getting 3-0'd.
Hurt is so raw
Hey @Marss can you do a video of you playing snake in elite smash without using explosive's?
I would pay to watch mars money match that banjo😂
Who was seeded first
Sparg0 played... kinda bad? Hurt went crazy ofc and really pressured him, but my GOAT will bounce back.
sparg0's decision making was definitely off this tournament. Showed a LOT during the Yoshidora sets and obviously carried into both Hurt sets
@@BladeVoltz Agreed he seemed a little off. Japan came out super strong though GGs
still insane to me people think snake is top 5
You can down throw f-tilt on a lot of characters. Theres a chart somewhere out there
Both interesting fights! Neat to see Snake take the cup 🏆
I’m sad you didn’t go! I wanted the money match.
Hello
Hi daddy
Idc how many b reverses snake players do, that character is corny af
He actually takes skill to get a lot out of him. That banjo match was cancer though.
havent seen this game in a while and damn has it gotten boring
Watching Snake camp corner is no different than watching Steve camp corner to me, I’d rather shut the stream off 🤷🏻♂️
Nah the difference is that snake is a lot harder to play and isn’t brain dead otherwise there would be. A lot more snakes
Insane take. Snake is maybe the coolest zoner in any game.
@@jimmycreighton4344 just because it’s hard doesn’t make it interesting to watch. shit is worse than a sonic camp out
Different strokes for different folks I guess.
@@jimmycreighton4344Apollokage, MVD, and Hurt isn’t enough snakes? What other Steves are there other than Acola, Ddee, and Onin?
