welcome to the third and final part of discussing every single Smash Bros character's worst match up in the game today we will be covering the DLC characters worst matchups first of all thank you all so much for all the likes and support on these matchup videos I appreciate it a lot and if you have any other suggestions on other videos you would like me to do covering Super Smash Bros stuff then let me know in the comments but let's get into it with our first character being piranha plant it is no secret that plant is not one of the better characters in Super Smash Bros ultimate they get comboed they get juggled and they get Edge guarded all pretty easily and there's no other character in the game that takes advantage of this more than miss the game and watch the juggling Edge guarding and combo machine the only other match-up specific thing other than Mr game watch just taking complete advantage of all of piranha plant's disadvantages is the fact that for whatever reason Mr Game watches neutral B when he Chucks out all the bacon and sausages as piranha plant is recovering to the stage and trying to get off the ledge it works incredibly well against piranha plant for whatever reason it catches plan every time easily lands into a forward till it knocks Prana playing off stage again comes back and either gets Edge guarded or just straight back into the neutral beads all over again up next is Joker jokey is a character that likes to use his movement to kind of bait and punish opponents or jump in and be speedy and just overwhelm them however there is a character that out speeds Joker and kind of shuts this whole game down and that is Sonic Sonic is obviously the fastest character in the game and with spin dash it's not really a move that you can kind of ouch base and then punish that's not how spin dash works so Joker's best aspect of him being a good character is taken away in this matchup combine this with the fact that no other character in the game punishes Joker for getting our sen more than Sonic I said it's supposed to power Joker up make him make him kill opponents earlier make him do more damage with his combos but Sonic actually kind of likes this in a weird way because when Sonic hits Joker off stage when he's got our sin then it's actually incredibly difficult for Joker to get back on the stage Sonic is fantastic at getting edge cards or using the spring to catch Joker going low or if he's going low and he's at a bit higher percent say 70 or 80 Sonic just rips that forward smash to the legend as Joker is trying to come back it's very very easy to hit him with Sonic's forward smash so he actually kind of doesn't like getting Arsen in this matchup Hiro has a little bit of a Renita phobia which is the intense fear of frogs and toads and that is because Hero's worst match up is Greninja Greninja small shuriken that kind of has no charge whatsoever kind of shoots out very quickly does two percent doesn't do much against a lot of characters however against hero it actually is huge because it completely prevents Hero's ability to kind of go through and use the menu because as soon as you get hit by a sure could it cancels the menu out this helps Greninja apply its safe pressure from a distance without hero powering up and becoming Super Saiyan and also once Greninja does decide to get in and mix things up then when Greninja hits hero off stage Greninja gets out there very very quick and is able to go far out to get the edge guards on hero before he's able to look through that menu and get zoom and fly back to Stage so greninja's speed with the projectile of shuriken and the speed of being able to go deep for Edge guards run around hero completely in neutral as well really helps Greninja out in this matchup Banjo and Kazooie is another character that really struggles with Allama olama's Pikmin is an absolute Menace for banjo they kind of destroy banjo's ability to use projectiles in neutral Pikmin kind of take the hits for olama and render a lot of banjo's moves completely useless however Banjo and Kazooie have their side B which is the burst option that kind of makes up for the fact that they're a slow projectile character oh you're trying to count me out well guess what I'm just gonna side B straight through that through your boomerangs and arrows or whatever projectiles you have and hit you in the face for it well that actually doesn't work verse Olimar as well it can't the side B from banjo kind of Trades with the Pikmin and slows banjo down and it leads to an easy easy punish for Olimar so banjo can't Camp he can't be aggressive but he should probably just give up and pick another character because Olimar it's not good maybe maybe look back in the other videos and see which characters alabar loses to Terry likes to keep it old school he uses his fists he uses his kicks to kind of defeat enemies so what better way to lose than a kid who has a freaking lightsaber and is is from the future or some I don't know I haven't played Xenoblade but all I know is Terry hates dealing with a shulk the range is just pretty much absolutely atrocious Terry also very often dies before 100 where he gets to be super powerful and have his stupid moves because I mean not Greninja sorry shulk is fantastic at getting edge guards going deep and stuffing out Terry's recovery have you kind of think of how Terry has to recover he uses his side B he uses he comes in horizontal and then if he needs to he goes straight up but that part where he's coming in directly horizontal he's coming directly in to shulk's Forward Air it's so easy for shulk to attack this recovery every single time you put a bit of Smash monado on that thing and Bob's your uncle Terry's dead at 50. and there you go this matchup sucks bileth is a character that was piloted by MK Leo for a very long time as he was reigning as the number one Super Smash Bros ultimate player in the world however he did have a bit of a struggle with esam the best Pikachu player in the world and that is no surprise because Pikachu is bileth's worst match up Bartles has a tough time dealing with Pikachu's small height it's very specific how bileth has to throw a low angled area with four there are back here if the ballast player is gonna hit Pikachu then when the Pikachus also start using a bunch of Thunder jolt if you if you're trying to space if you're trying to play it slow as the bileth as you often do then it's got to become even more difficult because you try to hit a little rat and there's a little bits of electricity coming down at you on the floor and it's really tough to deal with so all right I can't camp this character out I guess I better go in and attack with my neutral air and set up up into combos well if Pikachu ever Shields one of Wireless neutral airs which is pretty much Wireless best move in neutral Pikachu can actually attack out of shield with with a back air and Lead this into our combo the get Pilots off stage as all of Pikachu's combos do Pikachu always combos people horizontally off the stage and Pikachu then can easily just Land one more hit and get an edge guard on bileth before battles can get close enough to use the tether recovery so Pikachu is getting early kills and is winning neutral and this is why it's a terrible matchup for buyless speaking of getting early kills off the side on a tether recovery minmin has a tough tough time dealing with Chic for the exact same reason minmin's tether recovery and Recovery in general is a bit worse than buyless which means it's more guaranteed when you're horizontally hit mimming off the stage you're gonna get a kill with an edge guard and Sheikh is the character that absolutely loves this the most Chic the character it's classic ah shake Can't Kill ah ah she does no damage it's never gonna land a kill option it guess what against min-min she does a Sheik only needs like two hits in neutral to start a combo to get women off stage and get the kill almost every time and if you think about Chic as a as a character in terms of how could she use it just winning neutral she is very very good at this but usually her week if she can't kill her Advantage day isn't that crazy but now with mid-min it is she becomes an absolutely devastating character with an unbeatable neutral and unbeatable offensive combo Advantage State killing game and Min up against Sheikh it's like you got no chance I'm sorry bro Steve Steve Stevenson this is a character I'm sure you have all been waiting for to figure out what is his worst matchup well don't worry I figured it out for you and that is Sonic Steve plays all around the world have said Sonic is one of if not the worst matchup in the game for Steve this is because of a few reasons starting off with Sonic's speed Sonic is obviously super fast and is one of the few characters in the game that has a great time baiting and punishing Steve's options in neutral Sonic's burst range is also extremely large probably the largest in the game because of spin dash if you don't know what burst option is we I did explain this in an earlier video but it's essentially what is the range that you cannot react to this character if they decide to attack you and so Sonic is spinning up that spin dash there is a lot of range on the ground that you have to be like okay I can't really react if he lets go of the spin dash now it's just gonna hit me I have to respect all this and so Steve can't sit there mining if he is in this burst range of Sonic which is actually quite large now let's move on to the fact that when Sonic does get a hit in neutral against dif he actually does pretty good once he's in Sonic has good damage good Combos and the big thing is Sonic Edge guard Steve very well he's able to get out there once again fast before Steve is able to set up his whole BS thing where what's he gonna do he's gonna maybe mine car he's gonna jump up in the air he's gonna Anvil maybe he's gonna upbeat he has so many options to mix it up but none of those matter if you get out there and hit him first which Sonic is fantastic at doing let's say you do mess up though you can't get out there in time Sonic's back here is quite decent at dealing with Steve's Minecart and if Steve goes low for the upbeat while you're still on stage of Sonic well you can drop your spring on him over and over again or when you feel comfortable with the timing let that forward smash from Sonic rip which we have talked about many times with those characters that don't have a hitbox on their recovery and are trying trying to just grab the ledge Sonic forward smashes them every day of the week and Steve's upbeat guess what that's one of those moves that doesn't have a hitbox on it so Sonic has a fantastic time dealing with that as well so yeah a lot of people find Steve cringe and unfortunately Sonic another character that a lot a lot of people do find a bit annoying and a bit cringe is gonna be the best answer you got for defeating Steve all right is our next character and Chef Roth has a tough time with Sheikh sephiroth is a very long range but very slow startup character if you think of all Chef Roth moves none of them come out very quick in fact sephiroth other than using footstool is the slowest character out of Shield like Sephiroth's quickest move out of Shield is neutral air it is slower than any other character's option in the entire game and so Chic comes in and just absolutely overwhelmed sephiroth in neutral can kind of play the Speed game and get easy wins in neutral against sephiroth then when she could get sephiroth off stage she's able to actually Edge guard sephiroth very well because of the fact if she's got fully charged needles think about it sephiroth it's usually hard to Edge guard him because he swings out a massive sword absolutely every everywhere is helicoptering all about as he flies back with the charge to update he can come back from anywhere and it's tough to deal with but with Sheiks and needles you kind of just Chuck them they deal with the whole sword situation as he's upping back to stage and then a true combos in to bouncing fish and it's very easy to set up these needles on a character that kind of pauses and goes in a direct straight line as they recover back to Stage so yeah Sheik has a very very easy surprisingly time Edge guarding sephiroth because of this uh match-up specific thing pirate and Mithra are another DLC character a lot of people have a bit of frustration in dealing with well there is no character in the game better at dealing with pirate and Mithra than Diddy Kong Diddy has historically been very good against sword characters and so guess what this is two sword characters so there's no character better Diddy Kong has the banana which is fantastic against a character that like pyra who is kind of using long-ranged sword attacks that have a bit of a lag but usually she's so far away you can't punish it well Diddy Kong just kind of Chucks that banana through the whole sword situation and could still get the punish and find the lag on the move through the range Mithra is usually a character that just wins neutral over and over and over again against a lot of characters however Diddy Kong with banana is probably still a better character in neutral than Mithra uh Diddy Kong's banana out of Shield game works very well against pyro and Mithra and they are able to punish a lot of their options and get them off stage where Diddy Kong is a character that can Edge guard power and Mithra extremely well either it be using the Forward Air or the down air to catch Mr side B back to Stage or going out there deep for afford it to hit them before they even have the mix up of using their side being upbeat or let's say the third option which is still fantastic that's how good Diddy Kong is at Edge guarding these characters when they are going low and recovering with their upbeat and you're still stuck on stage you couldn't get out there in time Diddy Kong doing that thing where he z-drops the banana it then hits them stops the hitbox and then Diddy Kong comes in with the down air spike it works amazing against this and I'm sure you've seen a lot of Diddy Kongs do this tweak was doing this fantastically against pirate and mithras with his Diddy Kong and yeah that is their worst matchup kazia another character that has been a bit of a Hot Topic in Super Smash Bros some people even calling for cassia to be banned just like Steve because of how good this character is but there is a character that does defeat kazia and that is Sonic Sonic is a character that is potentially the best character in the entire game at the neutral and so if you're playing against kazia guess what you want to win over and over and over again it's neutral Cassius neutral isn't that good but when he does get a hit he goes absolutely crazy Sonic is your best chance to avoid ever even getting hit in the first place against kazia and when you do get kazir off stage with Sonic you are fantastic at getting the edge guard on him as well because he is neutral game and disadvantage are not good and Sonic takes fantastic advantage of this and if you're playing well you can avoid kazu's Advantage State entirely making him a pretty bad character honestly and ladies and gentlemen we have our final character and that is Sora Sora has a tough time with a little monkey himself a Diddy Kong and for for some reason it's very similar to how Diddy Kong beats para and Mithra he beats Sora as well Sora is a character that has a bit of an annoying amount of range where he kind of hits your shield with his sword and could kind of safely land away from you with a bit of enlag but he's Landing so far away that he can't really get there in time for the punish well Diddy Kong just Chucks that banana and can catch Sora every single time Sora is also not a character that kind of overwhelms you in neutral it sort of does give you a fair bit of space so did he is able to get the banana over and over again and kind of just hang out and wait knowing that Sora is eventually gonna land on the ground at some point and that banana is gonna be absolutely deadly however a thing with Sora that is quite difficult to deal with is his recovery I'm sure a lot of you have had this feeling before where you've got Sora off stage perfect time to get the edge guards time to get the kill time to have some freaking fun in this game well guess what you're playing sure that's not gonna happen he upbees his side bees he's side B's he's side beat again he can come back from anywhere with it boxes the entire time it's so annoying to land a hit on this character unless you are Diddy Kong because Diddy Kong Edge guards are weird way a lot of the time where he doesn't have to go out there he doesn't have to go deep he can do the thing The Tweak has shown us over and over again where you hold your banana and you just z-drop it and down there boom you get the edge Guard from on stage still and this is very easy to time against Sora Sora you know exactly what he's doing which is kind of the thing that makes it so frustrating when you can't Edge guard him the timing is so obvious but it's tough to deal with well if the timing is obvious did Kong's banana is the man for the job I don't know banana isn't really a man but it's the it's it's the job and so early kills as well and as we've seen if you're getting good wins in neutral and you're getting early kills that is the sure way to have a fantastic matchup against a lot of the characters in Super Smash Bros ultimate and so there it is that is the worst matchup for every single Smash Bros character thank you thank you so much if you've made it this far and you've watched all the videos please drop a like please leave a comment and please subscribe if you haven't already for
