"Why Did That Work?" Moments in Super Smash Bros
Ойындар
Things so dumb/silly they really shouldn't have worked... but they did.
This is a Smash compilation dedicated to those golden moments where a crazy option that should NEVER work, actually does! Maybe it was due to how unexpected it was, or maybe it was just next level mindgames (or maybe their opponent just REALLY messed up), either way, the important thing is that it worked, and now we have a great moment because of it!
Thanks for watching!

zackolot Ya I meant DI, thanks for catching that mistake. AFAIK there’s only like 3 throws in the game you can SDI and it’s not even the throw itself you’re technically SDIing in those cases. The meteor cancel is implied since everyone knows what a meteor cancel is and the original comment says it’s a meteor.
