But you forget! In Milky Way wishes, you can't get abilities by eating your foes. You HAVE to use the Copy ability. Besides, it looks cool that Kirby makes a scouter suddenly appear.
Copy IS really useful. You can get the Crash ability from Scarfy, it's the only way to get abilities from enemies in Milky Way Wishes (and it's even found on a really easy secret level, so you can have it as soon as you start the game), and it creates the TAC helper, which functions pretty much as a second Kirby BUT with a much better defense and a stronger attack.
Actually, copy is incredibly useful in Milky Way Wishes, and makes it significantly easier. Copy abilities like hammer can be achieved before collecting the copy ability statue thing.
ChaosKey4013 That would be so AWESOME! Plus, Kirby is pretty much Sakurai's baby and it would be weird to not see another Kirby representative... But if not, we'll probably see Palutena as a newcomer since Pit is also Sakurai's baby... Also, you just earned another subscriber!
I'm still skeptical about Palutena getting in even though I want her in (mainly for her potential Final Smash), but now that we have characters like Greninja and Wii Fit Trainer in, anyone can pretty much get in at this point.
Well to be precise, not every time Kirby sucks up something will be actually copy it's ability, because some of the enemies just don't come with it for the game would have too much transforming, but the copy power had used every scanned enemy's power.
Yes, people. I know that the Ultra Sword is Kirby's new Final Smash. Like I said in My Thoughts on the April Smash Bros. Direct, when I saw Ultra Sword as his Final Smash, I literally jumped out of my chair and hopped in sheer excitement!
ChaosKey4013 hey! chaoskey4013 COPY isn't THAT useless...it's pretty useful to me...you know why? i got the copy ability which you call stupid. I inhaled a SCARFY{an orange ball with two years}and got the CRASH ABILITY! You know i love crash kirby.it is so good...so please don't call copy ability a useless ability
Wait how is Archer bad? You can be invisible most of the time, your full charged arrows are fast, and do a lot of damage. It's my favorite, so I don't know why people hate it.
IMO, Copy isn't the worst copy ability. In Kirby SS(U), in Milky Way Wishes, it's the only way to get a copy ability without getting the essence first, as you can't get abilities from inhaling - and it's available at the start of the mode, making it an incredible ability. Although... only in that game.
Bubble is one of my favourites, it's pretty good for boss battles. Turn their projectiles into stars, combine them into big stars, then spit the big stars at them for massive damage. Makes quick work of most of the bosses, even Meta Knight.
Trees Aprentice,i have a story for you. A long,long time ago,a now famous green minion made a really shitty youtube video.He sent it to a very famous youtuber who ended up liking the video afterall.With one click of the subscribe button,people flocked towards this now famous youtuber. And so,with you being a popular youtuber among the countdown comunity,one subscribe and you may work with this genius
well the copy copy ability may not be useful in regular kirby but hey its pretty damn useful in milky way wishes but i wish they made the ability ONLY for milky way wishes
+random fan That and two other things why I think it is overrated. It is bland, it is just a sword. That doesn't mean it is bad, but it is boring. Also, the reason why sword is the most iconic ability IS BECAUSE IT IS A ZELDA REFERENCE! There is two ways this works. If you like the legend of Zelda it is one of your favorites if not favorite. Then if don't like it you like the sword ability but if you think about the reference and how popular it is, UUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH.
LOL!!! On your number 1 pick for your favorites, when you were going, "I want I want I want!" Your sounded JUST like Timmy Turner's derp teacher in Fairy Odd Parents. And, Squeak Squad, is unfortunately the only Kirby game I've played (I need to play more... -_- ) and I was absolutely ECSTATIC whenever I got the bubble ability. So, point and case, I~ loved the bubble ability. I found it absolutely adorable, and a complete joy and fun to play as. ^.^ But as I always say in a countdown video, your list, not mine.
There are two situations where the Copy ability has a point:1: Scarfies, which give Crash when hit with Copy, and can't be inhaled,2: Milky Way Wishes, where you can't get copy abilities by inhaling foes.
The spinning beam move in the air makes me think of bosses in some games, where the player has to move between damaging beams or blades until the attack pattern ends.
If it weren't for the copy ability we might not have known that Scarfy, the apple version of Scarfy, those blobs that Heavy Lobster spits out of his claws, the blobs that Chamilio Arm spits out of his mouth, Chef Kawasaki, those microphone enemies, and Mr tick tock give us abilities. Also you and your girlfriend way over rated the spring mushroom and way under rated the boomarang flower.
I don't know if you've seen Planet Robobot yet, but they actually updated Water to be Poison. Now there's a Poison Cloud attack for long-pressing B and you can fire poison blobs above water at enemies in the water to attack them, because Poison lingers.
I really liked Smash Kirby from Amazing Mirror, especially cause I'm a big Smash fan haha. It was probably the most versatile ability in the game (combining a ton of other abilities together to make Kirby's smash moveset)
Two things about Copy. 1. You can use it to get Crash from Scarfies. Yes, Crash, the nuke, from Scarfies. 2. Tac has Tac Hide as a guard, something you can use to hide from any attack in Helper to Hero to save yourself. Good lists otherwise, still don't get why people don't save the best for last though.
The copy ability was made for annoyance it's only there so that it can steal ur ability and you have to go and chase it! I used the bubble ability to make fire swords and ice swords and electric swords. It was very useful!
The copy ability is super useful in superstar and superstar ultra because in milky way wishes it gives you a copy ability when you don't have one normally as kirby
Water has one major flaw that keeps me from liking it. Air attacks. It immediately falls so you have to be close to an enemy, but because it takes so long to come out you’re going to get hit. My favorite abilities are Suplex and Staff.
Actually, copy can be pretty useful for a little while when playing Milky Way Wishes in KSS/KSSU, since you can't inhale enemies and take their powers in the campaign. But other than that, I seriously don't see why it is accessible anywhere else than there.
The bubble ability was useful in the sense that you can carry your abilities to other places where that enemy may not spawn, or to a place that doesn't drop that ability in particular. I personally used the bubble ability to stockpile my favorite ability, so if I ever got hit and wasn't able to recover the ability, I would have a backup. Not to mention if you had a sword ability or a bomb ability, you could look for flame, ice, or electric enemies to create the combo without having to search too far. Regarding the copy ability, I think it's purpose was for helpers. In pretty much all the games the copy ability is present, you were able to create helpers by sacrificing your current ability. But since the copy ability doesn't actually kill enemies with powers in one hit, you could copy the enemy, take it's power, summon a helper, and then inhale that same enemy if you really wanted the same power as your helper. Although it may not be the best ability, it's not 100% useless.
I've always been partial to Bomb Kirby.. but there are some good newer ones like Archer (OP for any Arena though truthfully) and some bad new ones (like Circus) but there also seem to be a lot of one and done abilities.. Bell, Water, Spear and such. I loved the ability to combine elements with sword/tornado in squeek squad, I wish that would make a come back. I also wish they would have a bit more consistency with abilities.. Fire for example, got some great upgrades in Return to Dreamland, but then got removed later. Maybe too OP or something. Best surprise ability though? Smash Bros Kirby. I was stunned to find out it was a hidden ability in Robobot along with UFO which is unlockable.
Has anyone else pointed out that Copy only existed so that you could make the TAC helper and your friend could copy any enemy he wanted, just like Kirby? It was awesome, and I'm almost positive that's the single reason they put it in Superstar.
Don't forget that copy can also be used to get abilities from certain enemies that can't be swallowed, like scarfy, who gives you crash when scanned with copy. That was the only reason I ever used it; getting crash from scarfy.
The Copy power can at least be used for challenge runs of Milky Way Wishes, or if you get it first, you can use it to get abilities you haven't found the essences for yet.
Water has been dead for seven long years Lying in his underwater tomb for seven long years Being missed, endless waiting for seven years But ITS BACK IN STAR ALLIES AND YOUR SO HAPPY CHAOSKEY4013
What if they changed the Copy ability in further games to give you a AI helper instead of the ability? I'd like to be running around with a Chilly and a Bang-Bang. (Ice and Missle are my favorite abilities)
My favorite ability always was the cupid ability. I used it whenever possible in amazing mirror. You can fly so smoothly, the attacks are not the strongest, but you are pretty save while attacking and Kirby just looks super adorable with the angel wings and the green colour~ But people always seem to forget about that copy ability..
I find the "Copy" ability like the Marigold in PVZ1, it's only really useful in one situation. In Copy's case, it's Milkyway Wishes (Becuase Kirby can't copy abilities in that mode). Also, It gives you a decent partner, so there's that. In any other Kirby Game, it would be extremely useless though.
I'm sure you heard this since you made the list but... The Copy ability was used for Milky Way Galaxy as a way to copy abilities since in said sub-game Kirby lacked his trademark copy ability. If you got the Copy Essence Deluxe at the stage ??? in Milky Way Wishes first, you would be able to use Copy to obtain the standard copy abilities while collecting the other Copy Essence Deluxe(s) as well as copy Crash from Scarfy.
Light is similar to fireworks, which we use to celebrate our country's freedom from England. Which is why it is also a contender for my Favorite Copy Ability.
Okay, I'm confused. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the reason copy ability existed was because in Milky Way Wishes, you can't inhale enemies to get their abilities?
You had to earn a few abilities, but other than that... NO FRIGGIN POINT!!111 You had nearly EVERY ability you'll need for the ENTIRE GAME if you bothered to GO IN A DOOR on the FIRST LEVEL
Exactly. That was the one I used the most in MWW. Because fuck having abilities handed to me. Also, Tac is basically Gooey from DL3, so if I had to be a Helper I'd go with Tac.
The Copy Ability does have ONE use... Copying abilities over treacherous areas (namely, bottomless pits). Seeing as Kirby cannot float while he has an enemy swallowed, and there's a delay before swallowing, inhaling an enemy while in midair over a bottomless pit is practically suicide. The Copy Ability, by bypassing the inhaling, circumvents this. Also, Tac is a lot better a partner than you give him credit for. Not only is he an all-in-one partner (he can switch at will in two-player mode), his guard is the equivalent of Leaf Kirby's.
Actually, I play the second player on superstar ultra, and if a person controls tac, it is amazing. You are essentially kirby in helper form. And did I mention that you can HEAL
19:45 No, there aren't. Tac is literally the best helper in the game. He fully heals every time he obtains an ability, making him practically invincible in the hands of a second player. And in the original Super Star, a controller with a turbo button can mash his attack so quickly it kills many bosses almost instantly, though this exploit was fixed in Ultra. Just look at the sheer insanity in parts of this video: ruclips.net/video/vWwdnFBohfE/видео.html Let's also not forget that his guard protects him against literally every attack. He's less broken in Helper to Hero due to his inability to copy combined with Ultra's nerf of his attack, but still one of the easier helpers regardless thanks to his uberguard and great range. The idea behind him was probably just to give the second player the option to play just like Kirby, but he ended up being a much better Kirby instead. With more recent multiplayer-supporting installments in the series allowing you to literally play as multiple Kirbys, Tac no longer serves his intended purpose, so I don't think we'll be seeing him again. Copy itself was probably just created for the purpose of Tac, but Kirby does still have a use for it in some situations. Others have already mentioned getting Crash from Scarfys, but it also works on mid bosses before they're killed and can deal a tiny amount of damage to bosses without the need for something to inhale and spit at them. But most notably, it's actually very useful in Milky Way Wishes, since it allows you to break the rules and obtain abilities without the need for their copy essences deluxe. Which is probably why it's hidden in a secret level. I still agree that Copy is a bad ability, but for completely different reasons. It's a seriously exploitable ability in certain situations whose intended purpose is better fulfilled by simply allowing multiple Kirbys to be played. But I really don't think it deserves to be ranked below Sleep and Light. The former is deliberately useless in almost all of its appearances while the latter is an extremely simple gimmick whose sole purpose is to make one door visible.
Pichu Kirby in Melee is the best copy ability, what could make Kirby buff Kirby more in Melee than he already was apart from copying a move that damages himself?
putting copy ability at 1 wasn't really justified. copy only stayed in 1 game, and it was made for a game mode exclusive to that game. and tac isn't bad if you have a friend that plays along with you.
Copy is my 2nd favorite ability, wanna know why. Multi player, you can kill bosses in the matter of seconds, (im talking specificaly about tac), infinite health and your friend has the freedom to choose their ability without you having to give up yours.
The copy ability has only one use. Two player mode. If Player 2 wants to play as Kirby? Let them play as TAC. As TAC, they can discard a copy ability like Kirby can.
My personal favorite is the smash ability. It turns kirby into a living bomb that you can charge up to create a bigger explosion. What more could you ask for? Maybe after that the mike abilty
The point of the copy ability is for a second player so instead of being a single ability the second player is basically Kirby where you can get rid of let's say sword you scan it but if you mind for ice you press the throw away button turn back to tax and recive ice you get it
Ahhh... I remember when i was 5 and was running around outside playing and having fun when I found a copy of Squeak Squad on the ground. This isin't any creepypasta because that game had a 100% save a 50% one and a new file. We still have that 100% save today.
In true arena, stone might make you invincible, but if you are the tac you can hide away from any and ALL attacks, especially having the power to charge your attack makes it a lil over powered. Even though it's weak, its great for hiding from all attacks.
About the "copy" ability, the n°1 of the worst, it is useful in Kirby Superstar Ultra in the level:Milky Way Wishes. At this level you couldn't use the copy ability inhaling the enemies, only using the ability "copy".Maybe it was created for this level, making it less borely. BUT WHY IN THE WORLD NINTENDO DIDN'T REMOVED BEFORE??!!
Since it's the main topic of discussion in the comment section here, I figure I'll put my two cents in too. The Copy ability basically lets player 2 play as Kirby. That's why it exists - to let the person who has no control over how they get to play the game gain the freedom Kirby has. You can even toss away the ability you steal with TAC with the A button, just like Kirby. It exists because of the helper system, and because you couldn't play as Korby. (The yellow Kirby, that is.) In later games, they fixed this issue in varying ways - the GBA games had multiplayer, Kirby Super Star Ultra was a remake, so it had a fair excuse, the other DS games (excluding Mass Attack, but I haven't played that one) were simply single player, Return to Dreamland has it so that players 2-4 are actually MORE powerful than player 1, since they can switch to Hammer, Spear, or Meta Knight at any time they wish, and Triple Deluxe is just single player again.
You didn't show a clip of what happens to foes in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror when you get a direct hit on them with Hammer Flip. They go flying straight diagonally up. If they hit a wall or ceiling, they follow along the wall/ceiling. If they then hit a corner, they go right through either the ceiling or the wall.
There is one thing Copy is excellent at. Inhale does not work on Scarfys and Mad Apples. However Copy does and you get Crash out of the deal. And in Milky Way Wishes Copy is suddenly your new best friend.
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
But you forget! In Milky Way wishes, you can't get abilities by eating your foes. You HAVE to use the Copy ability. Besides, it looks cool that Kirby makes a scouter suddenly appear.
That's what copy ability deluxe is for, copy can be useful for before you get an ability and most people that play it first time don't get it
I know sleep is bad, but Kirby looks so CUTE when he's sleeping
Fun fact. Beam is Sakurai's favorite copy ability.
Copy IS really useful. You can get the Crash ability from Scarfy, it's the only way to get abilities from enemies in Milky Way Wishes (and it's even found on a really easy secret level, so you can have it as soon as you start the game), and it creates the TAC helper, which functions pretty much as a second Kirby BUT with a much better defense and a stronger attack.
Actually, copy is incredibly useful in Milky Way Wishes, and makes it significantly easier. Copy abilities like hammer can be achieved before collecting the copy ability statue thing.
9:30 Your wish has come true!
YEP! And I'm so happy! Now they just need to put in Magolor as a playable character, and I will be satisfied!
ChaosKey4013 LOL! But we need to see Meta Knight before we have anymore Kirby fighters!
Which is why I feel they should do one more trailer before E3 that shows Meta Knight and then a new Kirby newcomer.
ChaosKey4013 That would be so AWESOME! Plus, Kirby is pretty much Sakurai's baby and it would be weird to not see another Kirby representative... But if not, we'll probably see Palutena as a newcomer since Pit is also Sakurai's baby... Also, you just earned another subscriber!
I'm still skeptical about Palutena getting in even though I want her in (mainly for her potential Final Smash), but now that we have characters like Greninja and Wii Fit Trainer in, anyone can pretty much get in at this point.
Well to be precise, not every time Kirby sucks up something will be actually copy it's ability, because some of the enemies just don't come with it for the game would have too much transforming, but the copy power had used every scanned enemy's power.
This is my first Chaoskey video, I always come here every once in a while
copy can actually get crash from scarfys. you can't inhale scarfys now can you?!
Brad Stover exactly
also how many times have you died when inhaling over pits of doom
But still it's not good
Yes, people. I know that the Ultra Sword is Kirby's new Final Smash. Like I said in My Thoughts on the April Smash Bros. Direct, when I saw Ultra Sword as his Final Smash, I literally jumped out of my chair and hopped in sheer excitement!
It is , ? Thanks!!!
Yeah! Ultra Sword is awesome! And so destructive at times.
ChaosKey4013 hey! chaoskey4013 COPY isn't THAT useless...it's pretty useful to me...you know why? i got the copy ability which you call stupid. I inhaled a SCARFY{an orange ball with two years}and got the CRASH ABILITY! You know i love crash kirby.it is so good...so please don't call copy ability a useless ability
+Suniti Hukeri but that's pretty much it.There is nothing else.SOOOOO......*cough,cough*Pretty lame*cough*
Viri Garcia and getting all the abilities is a little hard
"please be Kirby's new final smash"
Got your wish mang
Yeah, Water was the best new ability in Kirby's Return to Dreamland and it was the only one not to make it for Triple Deluxe -.-
Sleep is better >:o
I KNOW, RIGHT?
+Kurobii Smasher :D
They must've used all of the water copy abilities to water the beanstalk in Triple Deluxe!
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW.
xDDDDD
Give a cookie to this guy xD
Some asked why Archer wasn't on this list. The answer is simple: Kirby Triple Deluxe wasn't released when I did this list.
Wait how is Archer bad? You can be invisible most of the time, your full charged arrows are fast, and do a lot of damage. It's my favorite, so I don't know why people hate it.
I don't hate Archer, I just prefer Bell more because it's such a creative idea for a Copy Ability!
ChaosKey4013 My favorite copy ability introduced in Triple Deluxe is Archer, but Bell is nice, too
As ewwsdsf a w
What about smash from Amazing Mirror?
IMO, Copy isn't the worst copy ability. In Kirby SS(U), in Milky Way Wishes, it's the only way to get a copy ability without getting the essence first, as you can't get abilities from inhaling - and it's available at the start of the mode, making it an incredible ability. Although... only in that game.
Think about it. We could have had water Kirby all the way back in 64. But no, we get a FUCKING MELTING ICE BLOCK INSTEAD!
Bubble is one of my favourites, it's pretty good for boss battles. Turn their projectiles into stars, combine them into big stars, then spit the big stars at them for massive damage. Makes quick work of most of the bosses, even Meta Knight.
Well...at the same time, there was a mix of cutter and spark which resulted in LIGHTSABER!?
WHY HAVEN'T I HEARD OF YOU BEFORE, YOU'RE SO GOOD O_o
lol. same here.
Trees Aprentice,i have a story for you.
A long,long time ago,a now famous green minion made a really shitty youtube video.He sent it to a very famous youtuber who ended up liking the video afterall.With one click of the subscribe button,people flocked towards this now famous youtuber.
And so,with you being a popular youtuber among the countdown comunity,one subscribe and you may work with this genius
Tree's Apprentice YOU JUST NOTICED HE IS AWESOME? Plus I like your utube channel
Hey, at least Copy can copy Crash from Scarfy :3
at least Copy can copy abilities during Milky Way Wishes so one will not be helpless while one has no other copy essence deluxe
I knew that! Is it because Scarfies explode?
Or you could just eat a Bomber
well the copy copy ability may not be useful in regular kirby
but hey its pretty damn useful in milky way wishes
but i wish they made the ability ONLY for milky way wishes
i meant i wish the ability was only obtainable in milky way wishes
+Adventuregamer32 I understand that. I used it a lot to get mike and chef for milky ways
People have been saying that the Copy Ability is in Triple Deluxe. I haven't seen it in the game, but I haven't beaten it yet.
I checked to see if there was a list of abilities, and I did find one. Copy is not a part of it.
***** Water is one of my favourites!
Piercerson
mine too
Water isn't in triple deluxe...
Also Kirby can hold his sword up to the sky in triple deluxe
Totally not a LoZ reference.
Improve idea: what if the copy copy ability gave you a choice of 2? Like scanning a Sir Kibble would give you a choice of Cutter or Sword?
I think the sword ability is extremely overrated.
ikr
its good but I like other abilities better
+random fan That and two other things why I think it is overrated. It is bland, it is just a sword. That doesn't mean it is bad, but it is boring. Also, the reason why sword is the most iconic ability IS BECAUSE IT IS A ZELDA REFERENCE! There is two ways this works. If you like the legend of Zelda it is one of your favorites if not favorite.

Bigbrobird 11 finally someone agrees with me.
The eletrisity is the best
And the rock/stone
LOL!!! On your number 1 pick for your favorites, when you were going, "I want I want I want!" Your sounded JUST like Timmy Turner's derp teacher in Fairy Odd Parents.
And, Squeak Squad, is unfortunately the only Kirby game I've played (I need to play more... -_- ) and I was absolutely ECSTATIC whenever I got the bubble ability. So, point and case, I~ loved the bubble ability. I found it absolutely adorable, and a complete joy and fun to play as. ^.^
But as I always say in a countdown video, your list, not mine.
tornado reminds me of the spinjitzu from ninjago
Ninja... GO!!!
Heath Hemmer
why is the spinjitzu almost never used by now :(
There are two situations where the Copy ability has a point:1: Scarfies, which give Crash when hit with Copy, and can't be inhaled,2: Milky Way Wishes, where you can't get copy abilities by inhaling foes.
9:29 it actually happened
lol
Silver X
I liked the Ghost ability from Squeaker Squad, although it lacks in use. I just like the fun of it.
copy's helper is OP, though. TAC is great for a second players.
The spinning beam move in the air makes me think of bosses in some games, where the player has to move between damaging beams or blades until the attack pattern ends.
If it weren't for the copy ability we might not have known that Scarfy, the apple version of Scarfy, those blobs that Heavy Lobster spits out of his claws, the blobs that Chamilio Arm spits out of his mouth, Chef Kawasaki, those microphone enemies, and Mr tick tock give us abilities. Also you and your girlfriend way over rated the spring mushroom and way under rated the boomarang flower.
theLuffi nater Why people can't accept opinions anymore?
Anime Baloon Opinions need logical reasons. His were shit.
I sincerely hope that now you actually have a brain and are not throwing around your opinion with crappy reasoning
TemporaLeafeon What?
Just eat them, idiot. (Yes I know you can't eat Scarfys or Mad Apples, but you can eat all the others.)
I don't know if you've seen Planet Robobot yet, but they actually updated Water to be Poison. Now there's a Poison Cloud attack for long-pressing B and you can fire poison blobs above water at enemies in the water to attack them, because Poison lingers.
STOP HAMMER TIME!
the copy ability was meant for milky way wishes. it still allows you to copy ability normally until you acquire all the statues.
I really liked Smash Kirby from Amazing Mirror, especially cause I'm a big Smash fan haha. It was probably the most versatile ability in the game (combining a ton of other abilities together to make Kirby's smash moveset)
Two things about Copy.
1. You can use it to get Crash from Scarfies. Yes, Crash, the nuke, from Scarfies.
2. Tac has Tac Hide as a guard, something you can use to hide from any attack in Helper to Hero to save yourself.
Good lists otherwise, still don't get why people don't save the best for last though.
20:20
Exactly what I think when I use Crash
The copy ability was given a better use in Milky Way Wishes because you couldn't swallow the enemies so it is not as useless as anybody thinks.
Everyone sorry I did not put light or metal......I never played squeak squad and...... im not at the level with LIGHT ability
Long (but cool) intro: check.
Decent mic: check.
Interesting idea for a countdown: check.
Well, I'm subscribing, and hopefully others will as well.
also the copy ability exist because in milky way wishes your inhale doesn't give you enemies powers and tac can change abilities when he wants
The copy ability was made for annoyance it's only there so that it can steal ur ability and you have to go and chase it!
I used the bubble ability to make fire swords and ice swords and electric swords. It was very useful!
To be fair, in Milky Way wishes, if you found the copy copy ability deluxe, player 2 would be like a second Kirby.
The copy ability is super useful in superstar and superstar ultra because in milky way wishes it gives you a copy ability when you don't have one normally as kirby
Water has one major flaw that keeps me from liking it. Air attacks. It immediately falls so you have to be close to an enemy, but because it takes so long to come out you’re going to get hit. My favorite abilities are Suplex and Staff.
The hammer is awesome
Finally, someone who appreciates Hammer!
18:26 good choice of music
Actually, copy can be pretty useful for a little while when playing Milky Way Wishes in KSS/KSSU, since you can't inhale enemies and take their powers in the campaign. But other than that, I seriously don't see why it is accessible anywhere else than there.
The bubble ability was useful in the sense that you can carry your abilities to other places where that enemy may not spawn, or to a place that doesn't drop that ability in particular. I personally used the bubble ability to stockpile my favorite ability, so if I ever got hit and wasn't able to recover the ability, I would have a backup. Not to mention if you had a sword ability or a bomb ability, you could look for flame, ice, or electric enemies to create the combo without having to search too far.
Regarding the copy ability, I think it's purpose was for helpers. In pretty much all the games the copy ability is present, you were able to create helpers by sacrificing your current ability. But since the copy ability doesn't actually kill enemies with powers in one hit, you could copy the enemy, take it's power, summon a helper, and then inhale that same enemy if you really wanted the same power as your helper.

I loved the ability to combine elements with sword/tornado in squeek squad, I wish that would make a come back. I also wish they would have a bit more consistency with abilities.. Fire for example, got some great upgrades in Return to Dreamland, but then got removed later. Maybe too OP or something.
Best surprise ability though? Smash Bros Kirby. I was stunned to find out it was a hidden ability in Robobot along with UFO which is unlockable.
9:29
*Genie goes in front of ChaosKey4013* Wish Granted!
*Kirby's Final Smash in smash 4 is ultra sword*
*Fan community gushes at that decision*
Has anyone else pointed out that Copy only existed so that you could make the TAC helper and your friend could copy any enemy he wanted, just like Kirby? It was awesome, and I'm almost positive that's the single reason they put it in Superstar.
Don't forget that copy can also be used to get abilities from certain enemies that can't be swallowed, like scarfy, who gives you crash when scanned with copy. That was the only reason I ever used it; getting crash from scarfy.
Colin McRae Yeah I did forget that :) good point.
+Colin McRae (Pokeguy946) It can also attack bosses like Marx
Star Warrior Kirby Good point. Now that you pointed that out, Copy can attack any non-ability granting bosses/enemies/objects too.
The thing about the copy ability is that it's main use is to let player 2 have a choice of what it wants to be, plus some other things in the meantime
It's worthless for Kirby himself,he never mentioned the Super Star (Ultra) partners in this video.
Copy was created so that player 2 could have copy powers as well, basically functioning as a second kirby.
The Copy power can at least be used for challenge runs of Milky Way Wishes, or if you get it first, you can use it to get abilities you haven't found the essences for yet.
Water has been dead for seven long years
Lying in his underwater tomb for seven long years
Being missed, endless waiting for seven years
But
ITS BACK IN STAR ALLIES AND YOUR SO HAPPY CHAOSKEY4013
I love how you got your wish for kirbys new final smash! XD
What if they changed the Copy ability in further games to give you a AI helper instead of the ability?
I'd like to be running around with a Chilly and a Bang-Bang. (Ice and Missle are my favorite abilities)
Copy abilty is used so in Milky Way wishes because you can't gain abiltys by inhaling. It's used to replace it inhale.
My favorite ability always was the cupid ability. I used it whenever possible in amazing mirror. You can fly so smoothly, the attacks are not the strongest, but you are pretty save while attacking and Kirby just looks super adorable with the angel wings and the green colour~
But people always seem to forget about that copy ability..
Grey-ish Silver is a very slow color, so it makes sense that Metal Kirby would be quite sluggish.
9:29 Look who predicted the future!
-Ultra Sword- "PLEASE BE KIRBY'S NEW FINAL SMASH!!!" It is.
I find the "Copy" ability like the Marigold in PVZ1, it's only really useful in one situation. In Copy's case, it's Milkyway Wishes (Becuase Kirby can't copy abilities in that mode). Also, It gives you a decent partner, so there's that. In any other Kirby Game, it would be extremely useless though.
I'm sure you heard this since you made the list but...
The Copy ability was used for Milky Way Galaxy as a way to copy abilities since in said sub-game Kirby lacked his trademark copy ability. If you got the Copy Essence Deluxe at the stage ??? in Milky Way Wishes first, you would be able to use Copy to obtain the standard copy abilities while collecting the other Copy Essence Deluxe(s) as well as copy Crash from Scarfy.
With the super ability grand hammer I just feel like grand was the right word to use
Light is similar to fireworks, which we use to celebrate our country's freedom from England. Which is why it is also a contender for my Favorite Copy Ability.
Okay, I'm confused. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the reason copy ability existed was because in Milky Way Wishes, you can't inhale enemies to get their abilities?
You had to earn a few abilities, but other than that...
NO FRIGGIN POINT!!111
You had nearly EVERY ability you'll need for the ENTIRE GAME if you bothered to GO IN A DOOR on the FIRST LEVEL
Exactly. That was the one I used the most in MWW. Because fuck having abilities handed to me. Also, Tac is basically Gooey from DL3, so if I had to be a Helper I'd go with Tac.
The Copy Ability does have ONE use... Copying abilities over treacherous areas (namely, bottomless pits). Seeing as Kirby cannot float while he has an enemy swallowed, and there's a delay before swallowing, inhaling an enemy while in midair over a bottomless pit is practically suicide. The Copy Ability, by bypassing the inhaling, circumvents this. Also, Tac is a lot better a partner than you give him credit for. Not only is he an all-in-one partner (he can switch at will in two-player mode), his guard is the equivalent of Leaf Kirby's.
copy is an abilaty because in milkyway wishes you cannot copy abilitys by inhaling enemys so use the copy .
My favorite combo for sword:
Dash+B/1, Up+B/1, then Down B/1 in quick succession. Sure to kill any enemy, or take a large chunk of their health.
0:53 To think that he made the list about TWO YEARS after you said that.
Copy is for 2 player so you get Tac as P2 and they get to choose a copy abilty without it being over complicated.
Man, the number one worst was quite a "copyout"
Actually, I play the second player on superstar ultra, and if a person controls tac, it is amazing. You are essentially kirby in helper form. And did I mention that you can HEAL
1. usually copy abilities that were removed stay removed.
2. usually copy abilities that have alot of abilities stay
19:32 calm down bro! just think happy thoughts! think about water Kirby! that will cheer you up!
03:00 And during that, you can set fire to the ground
19:45 No, there aren't. Tac is literally the best helper in the game. He fully heals every time he obtains an ability, making him practically invincible in the hands of a second player. And in the original Super Star, a controller with a turbo button can mash his attack so quickly it kills many bosses almost instantly, though this exploit was fixed in Ultra. Just look at the sheer insanity in parts of this video: ruclips.net/video/vWwdnFBohfE/видео.html Let's also not forget that his guard protects him against literally every attack.
He's less broken in Helper to Hero due to his inability to copy combined with Ultra's nerf of his attack, but still one of the easier helpers regardless thanks to his uberguard and great range.
The idea behind him was probably just to give the second player the option to play just like Kirby, but he ended up being a much better Kirby instead. With more recent multiplayer-supporting installments in the series allowing you to literally play as multiple Kirbys, Tac no longer serves his intended purpose, so I don't think we'll be seeing him again.
Copy itself was probably just created for the purpose of Tac, but Kirby does still have a use for it in some situations. Others have already mentioned getting Crash from Scarfys, but it also works on mid bosses before they're killed and can deal a tiny amount of damage to bosses without the need for something to inhale and spit at them. But most notably, it's actually very useful in Milky Way Wishes, since it allows you to break the rules and obtain abilities without the need for their copy essences deluxe. Which is probably why it's hidden in a secret level.
I still agree that Copy is a bad ability, but for completely different reasons. It's a seriously exploitable ability in certain situations whose intended purpose is better fulfilled by simply allowing multiple Kirbys to be played. But I really don't think it deserves to be ranked below Sleep and Light. The former is deliberately useless in almost all of its appearances while the latter is an extremely simple gimmick whose sole purpose is to make one door visible.
Wow you sure know alot 😱👍
Pichu Kirby in Melee is the best copy ability, what could make Kirby buff Kirby more in Melee than he already was apart from copying a move that damages himself?
It makes me happy Magolor appeared when he said characters.
That's all I want to say.
putting copy ability at 1 wasn't really justified. copy only stayed in 1 game, and it was made for a game mode exclusive to that game. and tac isn't bad if you have a friend that plays along with you.
Well, the copy ability does do some laser damage in the range, and the only boss you can inhale/copy is that wimp known as Waddle Dee
You should do more videos like this :) its awesome!
Copy is my 2nd favorite ability, wanna know why. Multi player, you can kill bosses in the matter of seconds, (im talking specificaly about tac), infinite health and your friend has the freedom to choose their ability without you having to give up yours.
The copy ability has only one use. Two player mode. If Player 2 wants to play as Kirby? Let them play as TAC. As TAC, they can discard a copy ability like Kirby can.
My personal favorite is the smash ability. It turns kirby into a living bomb that you can charge up to create a bigger explosion. What more could you ask for? Maybe after that the mike abilty
That's Crash
The point of the copy ability is for a second player so instead of being a single ability the second player is basically Kirby where you can get rid of let's say sword you scan it but if you mind for ice you press the throw away button turn back to tax and recive ice you get it
Tacs not tax
Actually, the Copy Ability partner is awesome. Copy any ability you want if your a partner. Your just another Kirby basically.
so a hammer can kill mario but flying through space at speeds of sound doesnt? sounds like an accurate representation
Fun fact When first saw the beam in return to Dreamland I mistakenly called it Bean
Ahhh... I remember when i was 5 and was running around outside playing and having fun when I found a copy of Squeak Squad on the ground. This isin't any creepypasta because that game had a 100% save a 50% one and a new file. We still have that 100% save today.
"PLEASE BE KIRBY'S NEW FINAL SMASH"
Well fuck you predicted it.
In Kirby Super Star Ultra, I tackled the True Arena using the ability STONE! And let me say that was a very good idea.
in Super Star uUtra the only ability I was able to use to beat the true arena we stone, making it my favorite Kirby ability
In true arena, stone might make you invincible, but if you are the tac you can hide away from any and ALL attacks, especially having the power to charge your attack makes it a lil over powered. Even though it's weak, its great for hiding from all attacks.
I beat the True Arena in SSU with hammer and the True Arena in Planet Robobot with ESP.
Did you know, in RPGs Mario and Luigi collect hammer moves at one point of the game?
About the "copy" ability, the n°1 of the worst, it is useful in Kirby Superstar Ultra in the level:Milky Way Wishes.
At this level you couldn't use the copy ability inhaling the enemies, only using the ability "copy".Maybe it was created for this level, making it less borely. BUT WHY IN THE WORLD NINTENDO DIDN'T REMOVED BEFORE??!!
After, I mean.
He wrote about that at the end of the video
Since it's the main topic of discussion in the comment section here, I figure I'll put my two cents in too.
The Copy ability basically lets player 2 play as Kirby. That's why it exists - to let the person who has no control over how they get to play the game gain the freedom Kirby has. You can even toss away the ability you steal with TAC with the A button, just like Kirby.
It exists because of the helper system, and because you couldn't play as Korby. (The yellow Kirby, that is.) In later games, they fixed this issue in varying ways - the GBA games had multiplayer, Kirby Super Star Ultra was a remake, so it had a fair excuse, the other DS games (excluding Mass Attack, but I haven't played that one) were simply single player, Return to Dreamland has it so that players 2-4 are actually MORE powerful than player 1, since they can switch to Hammer, Spear, or Meta Knight at any time they wish, and Triple Deluxe is just single player again.
You didn't show a clip of what happens to foes in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror when you get a direct hit on them with Hammer Flip. They go flying straight diagonally up. If they hit a wall or ceiling, they follow along the wall/ceiling. If they then hit a corner, they go right through either the ceiling or the wall.
I really like spear for this reason: Hold B for a tid bit and BOOM! You are now a helicopter
I see the Copy Ability as nothing but a joke, which is why I laugh it off, and use it anyways. I also feel kinda bad for it.
There is one thing Copy is excellent at. Inhale does not work on Scarfys and Mad Apples. However Copy does and you get Crash out of the deal. And in Milky Way Wishes Copy is suddenly your new best friend.
