The reason for that is simple: It WAS :D

Never thought I'd get emotionally attached to a C-stick, but here we are.

It's hard to describe how emotionally invested I get in the possibility of beating a game with a pointless handicap, but it happens everytime this channel uploads.

About the C-stick: I know this is true in Smash 4 and it Ultimate, so I'm sure a similar thing is going on in Brawl, but the macro thing is true. In 4 and Ult, if you assign special moves to the C-stick, and then hold down the B button, it'll register your C-stick inputs as if you'd inputted a direction for one frame. This allowed you to pull off some pretty specific tech (known as Bidou) but for the purposes of this challenge, it'd probably make entering doors a lot easier. Again, assuming it works the same as in Smash 4 and Ultimate.

Brawl has some really weird unique stuff in it that make it perfect for this sort of challenge, too. SDI is the strongest (in terms of total effective distance) of any smash game, though part of that comes from being able to do SDI inputs with both the control stick and C-stick separately, unlike Melee where only one of the two can give an SDI input each frame iirc, or the later games where SDI is just massively weaker in general. With twin-sticking you can actually go from one side of a grounded DK up-B to the other, and back, and over and back again, before the move ends. If you wanna see what I mean, look for "Mr Doom's SDI sucks" and you'll see some examples from competitive play back when Brawl was the current game. Honestly single-stick SDI might still have been enough to use Link instead of Yoshi->Mario for the cave level, but with how low the hitlag on bombs are I'm not sure. Honestly, even with the amount of hours I spent on vanilla Brawl as a kid and on Project M in middle and high school, I'm still amazed seeing new things in both teleporting ZSS and the C-stick door access.

36:55 Kirby's forward air pushes you a tiny bit because of the C-stick macro. The control stick input part of the macro moves you a tiny bit forward if you're in the air

Bruh, that ending was more satisfying than any anime ending I've ever seen. Also, props to you for having the patience and sheer force of will to sit through ALL of this!

This was honestly one of the best challenges I’ve ever seen. I went into this knowing full well that Kirby would not make it past subspace, but I was proven super wrong. Also that finale with the platform was honestly insane.

Hey just wanna say your editing is simply amazing. It genuinely feels like this channel is a secret project from a much bigger channel. You rule.

The amount of time and effort Sample puts into these videos is unreal, and it always pays off in droves!

So many things in this run worked out so perfectly, I almost want to believe that Sakurai planned this all out

You're a legend. Not just for trying to complete this challenge (especially the final hurdle), but the entertaining commentary mixed with clearly explaining the techniques you used makes for a really interesting video. Editing is also on point, especially with the little sound effects. Great video!

Holy shit you're one of the only people on youtube who could make a 10 minute section about one damn plataform and still make it the most entertaining thing I've seen this entire week

I'm not gonna lie, as a Brawl/Melee player, I already knew you could shield drop with the C stick sometimes, but the editing was still excellent. And the OMORI music goes crazy!

I’m getting so much nostalgia from both the music and the gameplay. Somehow I’m familiar with most/all of it, including the Undertale music, Ace Attorney music, Omori music, Celeste music, etc. Thank you for bringing back so many memories.

I can confirm that your theory about the C Stick being a macro input is in fact true; it's that way in SSBU, and it's a part of the reason the input system is one of the things people dislike the most when comparing it to Melee

@papersonic9941

Жыл бұрын

I'm fairly certain it's always been a macro (sam for the grab button), it's just that Ultimate makes you reset the stick to neutral to throw another move (but on the other hand, you can charge Smash attacks with the C-Stick)

Subspace Emissary is the only reason why I come back to Brawl every once in a while. I liked the structure of the commentary and the tier list for the no move roster. This was fun to watch!

NEVER in my life have I cheered at a character moving through platform. Sample has a phenomenal sense of story telling in these challenges.

A successful challenge with assorted reality breaks and an epic ending? Neat. Also, it somehow made a very tense finale out of a platform. A PLATFORM.

12:30 "yoshi side-b is clearly quite useful" words first uttered in the history of mankind

C-stick movement with the B button held has been a known tech for a long time, even having applications in competitive play such as c-stick shield dropping in Melee and Bidou (a set of tech using this that includes sliding spotdodge, easier perfect pivoting, and more) in Smash 4. I feel bad for you that you had to take all this time to figure it out for yourself, but it's also cool to see people discover tech on their own. Overall, I really enjoyed this video.

“Yoshi’s side B is clearly quite useful” is something I never thought I would ever hear.

Dude, I live for challenges like this. The problem solving involved in all facets of the run (but especially the ending) is so entertaining. Loved this video!

There's so many challenge videos that would've given up at that last platform, but I'm happy how hard you tried to figure it out and succeeded. Even if you hadn't, I'd have been impressed with all the tech you learned about in the process, but it's so satisfying to see it pay off in the end letting you beat this ridiculous challenge

My guess for the reason the B input is lost to go in doors is simply landing lag. Incase you didn't know there is a window of a few frames after landing from certain actions that stops most inputs from registering. Since doors are not part of the "main game" I'm guessing they either have something missing or added to the code, allowing them to be entered during landing lag.

I swear that last section was amazing. Not just in completing it but also the editing was top notch too! I love it.

got this video recommended to me and decided to watch it. not disappointed in the slightest, you're genuinely funny and the video was incredibly entertaining. not every day I watch through a whole 50 minute video without disengaging midway. new sub now :)

An absolute BANGER, your challenge videos are a joy to watch

We have come full circle. Going from no movement to moving in our immobility. Truly, Sample has graced us with the content we many not have wanted but certainly needed. God bless you sir and I hope your sanity comes back after what appears to be an actual teeth pulling experience.

I absolutely LOVE your animation style!! Keep up the amazing content, I’ve loved every single video of yours I’ve watched so far!!!

Genuinely the best game challenge video I have seen, very entertaining, lots of cool tricks, a ton of passion and effort, and an amazing choice of game to boot! Great job man!

That ending was absolutely superb. Also ZSS is the absolute queen of the Smash world

HELL YEAH! More Sample is always welcome, and one of my favourite games of all time.

This was the most entertaining challenge video I have watched to date. Well done. Also it was Subspace Emissary, so like amazing in every right. You got yourself a new subscriber

After hard bingeing the rest of your challenges when I found you after Halloween, Shovel Knight was without a doubt my favorite. You showcased what makes these dull after a while in the kirby: everything edition but this, this blew everything I've seen so far out of the water. I love the tier list idea, I love learning new things about my old favorite games, and the way you managed to turn something so simple as dropping through a platform into an emotional final boss is simply wild to me. It makes me that much more excited for what you have planned for the future. (Hopefully Shovel Knight DLC cause cause of course I'm waiting patiently for the sequel to my former favorite)

This taught me so much about the inner mechanics of Brawl that I'd never really know. Not just an entertaining video but quite the informative one.

I was really invested in this and I genuinely felt relief at the end when it was possible to go down the platform. Also its funny how in this and challenger Andy's video peach had to resort to down b bombs

respect for this challenge this 50 min flow by really quick i was so invested at the end

there are different cooldowns for a B input and a directional input, so spamming the c-stick fast enough in some situations will cause a directional input before the B button cooldown finishes

This was a ton of fun to watch! Thanks for the Audible trial and suggestion as well!

I found your channel yesterday, and I am loving the videos, please don't stop making content

Subspace without joystick, huh? Looking forward to seeing how things go. Will be fun to see that tierlist fill out. Cursed C-stick mvp Thinking about later on, I know there's that one level near the end where your only option is Kirby, so that one won't work. Didn't expect to get past the Porky statue, honestly, didn't think there would be enough speed. The psi magnet adding extra movement past the PK fire is neat. Marth can be heard, incredible. Meta Knight is still decent, of course. Even if they aren't the best, the guy has no real weak points. Link with the bomb, I assume a similar ranking will occur with snake, same idea. Uh oh, ladders. Poor main gang, none being super great. Bunch of quick levels, there. Ike's pretty decent. Based on C-stick stuff, I'm guessing a well timed C-stick while falling to go through the semi solid is the solution. Guess not. Shield tech. Well, that's cool, a true success, those are rare in challenge runs, usually it's just getting the least amount. Nice work!

When the world needed him most he returned

This is genuinely one of the most impressive challenge videos I’ve ever seen. Like it’s a platforming story mode that relies so much on moving how in the world could it be possible? Fortunately I was proven wrong. Amazing video keep up the great work!!

First video I saw of yours and it was so fun to watch Also seeing these cutscenes in such high quality was so great

I love seeing sample pop up, and making a challange in my favorite franchise ever. Thanks for making this, it made my day so much better.

Honestly the only reason I prefer sample’s runs over every other challenge video is that in all of them there is some form of obstacle that he gets through by the most weird and obscure thing which makes these feel so much more fun then just finding one really good thing to help with the challenge and then winning it because it’s op or giving up entirely

Absolutely amazing video! The jokes were great, the commentary awesome and the overall challenge very unique. Loved it!!!

Thank you for your dedication! It truly feels like nothing can stop you, I love it!

Why does this man play every game I'm nostalgic for 😭

Hey great video, also good job explaining some of the most common concepts in the competitive space, that neither the game nor other videos tend to explain.

amazing video, forgot how awesome subspace's story is and your humor is very on point

I like how he's discovered moves professionals didn't even know of on his desperation near the end.

One of the best videos by far, I loved it. Can't even imagine how much time and effort this must have taken, but I feel it made the challenge a great story

Great video, the commentary was entertaining and you explained very well every mechanic you used! Keep it up!

I love how the final boss isn’t the actual final boss Taboo but a platform

Damn the C stick does a lot more than I remember

This is actually such a god tier video. It’s hard to make a 50 minute video entertaining the whole way through, especially since I’ve played brawl half my life, and yet I’ve rewatched this things without skipping a second like 6 times and I’m ready to watch it again. Golf clap sir

Found you through the commentated tas kirby vid getting recommended and stayed ever since. You make some wonderfully stupid things happen in these games with great editing and humor with it, keep up the great work!

Can we all just appreciate the chapter names. They're great

The macro theory is spot on. If I had to guess, you pressed up during landing lag after the special, which prevented it from being used again for a few frames but still let you go through the door.

Man I've been waiting for a new vid for so long, love your content, keep it up

Awesome video! My favorite challenge vid to date. Keep up the good work!

The C Stick is indeed a Macro. Grab is also a Macro of Shield and A

ironic that kirby of all characters is unusable for most of the run 6:55 as it should it's clearly her hip people can be so annoying about it
