jazaniac lol I thought you meant Andrew Yang at first

One thing I found interesting getting into melee, was that at first I was sure I was gonna be a fox main. I knew I wanted to get in peoples face. I wanted to put people on the back foot. I wanted to be aggressively dominant. But it didn't click. I decided maybe I wanted to focus on spacing and punish game, so I tried marth. Nope. Sure Falco will be that sweet spot then. I love grinding tech skill, and I loved seeing how top players used laser. Nope. Then one day I tried out samus. Turns out, my brain is better on the back foot. Turns out I am far better at reading my enemies approach than I am at reading their defense. After 2 and a half years of playing fox, I was getting better results with samus after 2 weeks. Sometimes you never really know which style is meant for you, until you experience it for yourself, rather than trying to replicate what you think you should be.

the complexity was about ideas psure sheik is incredibly complex but her game plan is relatively the same each match, inverse for palu who has a simple set of options that string together but can switch up her game plan easily

@dddmemaybe

The complexity I think he means, is about how many different types of gameplay can they use. Shulk has no projectile game and he only has rushdown when in speed- and maybe jump monados. other than that he is _only_ a spacing character who has bursts of high threat. Lucina being more complex doesn't make any sense because she also doesn't have a projectile nor many special gameplans outside of effectiveness of her spacing game being strong. I think his list is very rushed.

What a well made video. This is some seriously good content. Your ability to articulate the complex concepts that you hold is amazing.

I'm going to sub with the expectation of more videos like this. Really interesting stuff

This video really helped reaffirm who I main across the platform fighters I play, so big thanks. Been in & out of a character crisis that started in Smash 4, but I’ve finally settled on who I play/what exactly it is I want out of the characters I play in terms of options & personal expression (Sheik in Ultimate, Maypul/Sylvanos in Rivals, Lucario in PM/P+, & while I don’t play Melee much I’ve been trying to get into it with Fox/Sheik). The complexity/implementation chart for the Ult cast is also super helpful, and does a great job of putting into perspective exactly what it is a player may want to get out of their characters. Everyone’s exact needs/wants are different, but speaking for myself I need good movement and combo/reset potential with most characters I play

Man. This is such an in-depth video and attention grabbing video, that when I went to check the time stamp for the first time, the video only needed 20 seconds to finish. Your voice is superb for analyzing/in-depth type videos and you had my attention the whole way. This video really puts maining a character into perspective, and now has me second-guessing my main. Thanks for this video, you got yourself a subscriber!

I'm literally watching this on a break from writing and it's making me want to go back to my book. Very motivating!

Wow! What a great video I’ve never seen smash compared to an art form before but it makes sense and I feel like I have a better understanding of the game in general now thanks!

I like this idea, I genuinely think this would be cool to see other smash content creators use a template like this to show their opinions on where the meta stands. Change my mind recommended in 2020 btw

I didn't expect to get an art lesson from a video about melee characters lmfao. Incredible work dude, this is amazing

the trumpet in the background music is right between annoying and perfect, thank you!

This needs more views. This was fantastic

Wow. This is one of the most thoughtful and intelligent pieces of smash content I have ever seen. Incredible. Thank you SmashG0D

Really wonderful video. I respect the effort and execution. I used to be a samus main for 3 years in melee. I picked up samus because I thought she was unique and cool, but I later learned that fox fits me better. I would always try to move forward and be aggressive as samus, which wouldn't work as much and would be frustrating, but ever since I started playing fox, I feel much more free to express my ideas in the game. Your video helped me realize why I love fox and not samus.

great video man!

Way to make A+ tier content Rishi you earned a sub

My friend in Colorado told me to say that he appreciates this video sooo much!

The tier grid shoukd be stabdardized, it's genius. This video was so much more than I expected, I enjoyed it very much and made me rethink things about my personal playstyle

This is a beautifully made video

I main Fox, and like to utilize his movement and threat zones to force my way to center stage, and once I have positional advantage, I like to approach with a mixture of full hops, running grab/waveshine into grab, and short hop nairs/drill. I also love my up-air>up-air>up-air chains. Oh, and I enjoy calling out my opponents movement and/or approaches with running up smashes or pivot up-tilt, but not too consistent with the latter.

I’m a wolf main in brawl and as much as I’ve been able to play it, in ultimate too. I absolutely 100% agree with his spot on your chart. Extremely strong implementation with a somewhat simple concept. Thank you king.

Lmao, I was kind of doubting whether you could recognise players just by their playstyle and only realised there wasn’t a playercam of Mang0 when it came up. You win this round, Rishi

The Ultimate tier list comparison felt so right. It feels so awkward looking at the characters in a normal tier list because there's so many and there's so many divided opinions. That graph you put up could work nicely

This was really great

That chart you made for Ultimate is super accurate

dude holy shit, you make melee sound even cooler than it already is. thiws game is so dope

This was some high quality stuff

Great video Rishi

that brother combat made my heart happy

I would love to see a similar breakdown on Axe.
