      Don’t worry, Greninja was never actually banned and the top tier contenders were quoted as being “very stupid”. While yes, people wanted Gren banned in the early months, after learning about the meta, it was discovered that the ninja frog had clear faults and the patches made him drop further, but it was too late to turn back. If you don’t believe me on how the contenders are stupid at times, look up the discussion on the Wii U Mii characters and why they were banned. It was a mess

    • @bigbangbot-SuperSqank
      @bigbangbot-SuperSqank Před 11 měsíci +1

      Greninja being “busted” was very much an early meta misconception which wasn’t actually the case. He did get a few notable nerfs early on but even before the nerfs, Greninja was a very flawed character and his high perception came from the fact the character and the game was new, so people didn’t know the matchup or even how to play the game very well for that matter. While there were notable nerfs, they weren’t drastic changes which pushed him from top tier to mid tier. I get why some people hyped him up early on but it was something that just wasn’t the case in hindsight and you will find that with the early history of literally any competitive game.
      And “Greninja was continuously nerfed” is just flat out not true at all. It is a blatantly false misconception. In the game’s first major balance patch (3DS to Wii U), Greninja did get a few notable nerfs but in later patches, Greninja almost exclusively got buffs in many future updates and some of his buffs were actually really good changes which aided his gameplan and ironed out certain weaknesses. He got a few initial nerfs but then he got continuous buffs.

    Actually melee has a lot of banned tech (usually stalling related so fair) but there’s actually an even more broken set up for ice climbers that was never legal
    It’s preformed by having nana grab an opponent and either pun king, forward throwing or uo thrusting the opponent and then having popo preform squal hammer during the pre release hit
    Doing this permanently freezes your opponent so you can rack up basically infinite damage as they are completely locked into that position
    There are exactly 2 ways to cancel the freeze grabbing (something that actually makes sense) and getting hit by the screw attack item (fir some reason)
    Now this is because of some hitlag mungo jumbo where the squal hammer interrupts the grabs hitlag that’s supposed to cancel the animation and as such puts them in perpetual hitlag and consequently completely unable to move
    This was patched by the PAL release but no one plays PAL for a number of reasons

      Idk, I wouldn’t call it more broken. It’s 10x harder to pull off and literally the only real difference between it and wobbling is that you can rack up damage faster with freeze, and if stalling is allowed, you can just use the bathroom while you’re waiting for time to run out.
      I always thought it was stupid that the freeze glitch was banned but wobbling wasn’t since they’re essentially the same thing. If anything, it should’ve been the other way around since the freeze glitch is way harder to get.

    Greninja was never an OP/broken character in Smash 4, not even close. As someone who has played and heavily researched early Smash 4 3DS, I can very confidently say that Greninja’s hype back then was simply early meta syndrome (similar to how some people thought K Rool was OP in early Ultimate but he really wasn’t. Greninja was a mid tier in the later stages in Smash 4 and in vanilla, I’d say he was high tier at the most.
    Greninja’s Up Smash was really good back then and the main highlight vanilla Greninja had over later versions of Smash 4. Definitely one of the best up smashes in the game back then. However, it wasn’t perfect. The move was mainly strong when the opponent was above you (being a nasty anti-air) but it wasn’t quite as strong if the opponent was in front. It had good range and decent power but it did come out fairly slowly, so it wasn’t particularly hard to shield. It was hard to punish due to the move’s low ending lag but it could still potentially be punished depending on how Greninja used it, especially with a powershield. Even if you couldn’t punish the move, you still had a decent frame advantage against Greninja which you could utilise. Additionally, early 3DS had a different DI system and you could utilise it to reduce the combo and KO potential of Greninja’s up smash, which could otherwise be really nasty. The nerfs to up smash were significant but not quite tippy top tier to mid tier significant. It was still a really good anti-air, it just lost its combo potential and became easier to punish.
    Greninja’s landing lag cancel with Shadow Sneak wasn’t actually very good. It could be used as a landing mixup at best. The main limitation which the landing lag cancel had is that it had a whole 16 frames of startup where Greninja was completely vulnerable. This meant that it was easily punishable and it didn’t even reduce the landing lag of a majority of Greninja’s aerials. The opponent had consistent punishes for Greninja’s aerials whether he performed the cancel or not. It also had almost no combo potential as Shadow Sneak was so slow and the Shadow Sneak itself was extremely risky. Even when used as a landing lag cancel, Shadow Sneak came out extremely slowly and it had extremely high ending lag (even higher than in later versions of Smash 4). The move was a death sentence on shield and if the opponent predicted you were going for the landing lag cancel, they could very easily shield the Shadow Sneak and get a monumental punish (a much bigger punish compared to if they didn’t shield at all). The Shadow Sneak also didn’t hit as hard as later versions as a sidenote. It wasn’t useless as you could use it as a landing mixup but it was purely a landing mixup, and an extremely risky one at that. It is a shame that Greninja lost it but losing it wasn’t s game changer or anything.
    And those are the main things I wanted to mention. Greninja did get some other notable nerfs such as to fair and uair but nothing that was too significant. Greninja also ended up getting some pretty significant buffs later on, such as his grab and Shuriken becoming much faster, noticeably improving his punish game and his camping potential. Greninja wasn’t a bad character in early 3DS but he wasn’t a super top tier either, and his changes weren’t as harmful as often perceived. I understand why he was hyped up in early Smash 4 but I can guarantee you that if Smash 4 didn’t get balance patches, he still would have fallen off as the meta progressed. Early Smash 4 3DS had much nastier characters than Greninja. Sheik and Rosalina in particular were absolutely insane in early 3DS and they got some pretty significant nerfs in later versions (while still remaining top tier after all of their nerfs). Those two characters in the original 3DS form were probably the strongest characters Smash 4 saw outside of DLC. Sorry this comment was so long, I just have so much to say about this topic (I even made a whole video on the topic).

      Firstly, the video literally explained right at the start that it was nigh impossible to enforce, as EVERY tournament would have to pour hours into reviewing the footage of every Steve match just to see if he used the tech during it or not. Secondly, Steve is 100% on par with B4yo and 🅱️etaknight in his own unique way. B4yo made every interaction a death trap, as a single stray hit could lead to a 0 to death and Witch Time made it far too dangerous to attack as she could get a free 0 to death. 🅱️era knight was overpowered because he could completely circumvent the game’s clumsy mechanics (chaingrabbing, tripping) while excelling at every facet of regular gameplay, such as a perfect recovery, massive amount of jumps, a sword that outranged MARTH, etc. etc. Steve just doesn’t play the game. He can create new platforms to gain the high ground, build nooks to turtle, hit the opponent with a lighting fast hitgrab/tatsu that can take them straight to the blast zone, deal massive amounts of damage with the right tools, perform setplay with TNT that ALSO covers nearly all ledge options BY ITSELF, gain combo extensions using blocks, combo other people across the stage, has a recovery that makes 🅱️etaknight look like Little Mac, and to top it all off he violates the two sacred rules of Keepaway characters;
      1. Do not have a limitless supply of the resource that allows Keepaways to retreat safely (blocks, minecarts, etc.)
      2. Do not give them a passive win condition (diamonds). Steve 100% deserved to be banned even without his glitches, as every match would devolve into horrid Steve mirror matches, where at least B4yo and 🅱️etaknight are entertaining, Steve is downright mind numbing.

      "Recovery that makes Meta Knight look like Little Mac"
      The recovery in question: Side-B into Up-B. Maybe some fancy gliding.
      Meanwhile, Meta Knight can recover from anywhere with each of his four special moves, and his gliding makes Steve's look more like falling with style. He can literally glide from blastzone to blastzone three times over.
      Steve's zero to deaths and defensive options are a fraction of what Sm4sh Bayonetta are. Bayonetta could turn literally every neutral interaction into a stock, and it was braindead easy.
      And comparing Steve to Meta Knight in any aspect? Laughable.
      Meta Knight has a brutally overpowering neutral, unparalleled shield pressure, the safest and most effective camping in Smash history, out of the charts mobility, incredible edgeguarding, ledge trapping, reversals. You name it, Meta Knight has it.
      He singlehandedly got over half of the stages in the game banned. He makes a character that can kill you at 0 off of one grab look like a low tier. He can literally become *completely invincible* by just mashing one of his specials. He has *better framedata* than Steve's Golden tools, with the same kill power as Diamond. He singlehandedly made any character that doesn't *hard counter* him *unviable.*

    I can totally knew how the Ice Climbers were broken because they couldn’t make it to Smash 4 due to the 3DS not allowing to controllers to fighters in 1 player. The Wii U was doing fine but the 3DS couldn’t handle it due to being a limited to software like only allowing 4 Fighters on screen and it could not do 8 fighters on screen with 2 characters being 1 Player each. It was just too much for Nintendo they were going to add it to Wii U and 3DS as DLC but ended up being cancelled because the 3DS couldn’t handle 2 same size characters with the exact same moves for 4 Players which makes it 8 in total.

    Great video overall, although I do have a few corrections to make, especially regarding Cloud in doubles:
    Double Cloud was actually nowhere near the best team composition with the character, since both of them still had the exploitable weakness of their recovery. People generally agreed that Cloud was much better when paired with characters who had decent recoveries, cause were less likely to get gimped at low percents and could more easily save Cloud when he was recovering offstage (Pikachu, Sheik, Bayo, etc). In fact, if you look at the best doubles teams in Smash 4 (Mkleo/Javi, ZeRo/Nairo, Esam/MVD, Komorikiri/Ranai, etc) all of them used Cloud + another character instead of double Cloud - the only ones that did use double Cloud were Leo/Komo on the few occasions they teamed and Leo/Javi, but even then Javi used Sheik as much as, if not more than Cloud.
    It was for these reasons that GOML actually received a lot of criticism for only banning double Cloud - not because the ban went too far, but because people felt that it didn't go far enough to address the issue. The problem wasn't double Cloud - it was straight up just Cloud, period.
    Also, the Greninja tech you showed on screen at 9:19 was actually an unrelated tech called the shadow sneak slide, which never got patched out of the game. I imagine you probably showed it instead just cause there isn't much footage of the you were talking about, so I won't really particularly fault you for that. Just thought it was worth pointing out
    Again, not trying to be overly negative or anything, cause this is still a really well done video. Just wanted to correct a few of the mistakes I noticed

    Also it was way easier to tell if wobbling was happening than if Steve does the phantom dodge. Plus the Steve players could simply press it on accident and get banned for it. Would be great if it could be patched out, or even a fan mod would be nice. However I don’t think Nintendo will bother with a patch and they definitely won’t allow a mod in official tournaments in their current smash game.

    Bayo is either one of the best high tiers or one of the worst top tiers, similar to Terry imo. Her weaknesses technically exist but she has so many unique options that they don’t matter. Her landing lag is often a non issue since she can use her specials to retreat to ledge or witch time to cancel all lag and kill YOU for trying to punish her. Her kill power as you said is actually not bad, and even if she’s not killing you until 180%, she got most of that damage off of two combos. She’s tall and light but has one of the best disadvantage states in the game, so abusing that is not easy.

    Hero is not broken. His abilities are balanced by his slower frame data, and his fall speed is very slow. If you get him in the air he’s screwed.
    The randomness adds a chaotic factor which forces people to adapt on the fly. Smash autists don’t like him because it prevents them from being able to rely on autistically memorizing all the characters move sets so they can automatically counter each attack through muscle memory. They want everything to be clean and predictable so that the fight simply boils down to who has the fastest reaction time rather than actual strategy.

    I love Bayonetta so much, played all her games, I find it funny that people in smash hate her for being broken but she literally was a perfect representation of the series that she came from, people always complain about Zelda series not having enough representation despite having a lot of characters in smash but Bayonetta quite literally represents her game PERFECTLY and even she wasn't the smash ballot winner, she was most likely runner up considering Sakurai said she was the most voted in Europe and among the top 5 globally, so even though she didn't win, she was probably 2nd, 3rd, or 4th in the ballot

      @@dianamunoz4296 The 3 Links part answered your own question for me. It's the same guy with the same movepool with super minor differences. That's what people hate about the Zelda representation in Smash, not the quantity. Where's Vaati, a character who has appeared in multiple Zelda games as a separate villain from Ganondorf? Where's Impa, a character who is considered both fairly important and popular in the Zelda franchise and has fought before to represent the Sheikhan tribe better than Sheik, who is just Zelda in disguise? What about Revali, the most constantly wanted BotW Champion since the game was released? Do you not know that people were more upset that we haven't had a new Zelda rep since Brawl and Fire Emblem surpassed it? Too much Zelda representation is and was not something people have had a problem with. Most people are actually wanting it, especially over Fire Emblem.
