Ranking All 42 Gizmos In Super Mario Maker 2!

- There are a lot of stage elements to help players build levels in super mario maker 2. These include terrain, items, and enemies but there is also a fourth and very important group gizmos. This section basically acts as the "other" section for super mario maker 2's stage elements menu. Many of these gizmos range from being near useless like banzai bills to being nearly essential like on off blocks and checkpoints. So today I thought it would be fun to rank all 42 gizmos in super mario maker 2 from the worst to the best along with putting them into a tier list!

Keep in mind that anything I say here is speaking relatively to the other gizmos. If I say a certain gizmo is more niche or not as helpful I mean in comparison to the other gizmos and most are still helpful in certain scenarios! Hope you all enjoy my first real video of the new year!
Ok
ok
Sure
I don't understand... crates aren't hard to place.
Hey the snake block is global ground. Just throwing that out there. I think it should have been higher
Imagine how many more possibilities there would be if ON/OFF switches had yellow and green variants that turned on and off independently of the red and blue variant.
I dont get how this works. Do you mind explaining more?
@@c0rruption775 So there would be green and yellow on/off switches and blocks that would change between each other, as well as the blue and red ones that switch between each other. Hope this helps but Im not the best at explaining things! :)
@@blackcat_064 Cool
Ceave mentioned that a while back
(By a while I mean about a year)
Do you mean there would be a green/yellow variant of the on/off (that switches between red and blue) switch that would cycle between green/yellow blocks which would be a variant of the on off blocks. That would be cool. The game would have to keep track of the red/blue state and the green/yellow state.

“It has on/off block functionality which is always a plus”
Says the on/off mushroom trampoline is useless
In itself, the on/off mushroom trampoline is a gizmo as its own, and it can easily be replaced, since as he said, you could just put some on/off blocks on it
3DW would be worse off without any real semi solids

The worst part about lifts not being in 3D world style is that THEY WERE IN 3D WORLD! WHY!
Even worse is that they’re even ON THE TITLE SCREEN
This goes to tracs as well we see some lifts that are attached to tracs...
Plus other games didnt had tracks too
And they didn't include enemy stacking
Honestly the restrictions just start feeling more like "you cannot place this specific power-up on an ? block if it's touching this specific tile and it's adjacent to this specific block unless your camera is on this specific spot" rather than actual restrictions that make sense
@@trollsansofficial yes

Peak transition 👌👌👌
The snake block is actually useful for something it provides global ground and in addition to that I've seen a lot of creative uses with It in troll levels
But _"troll level"_ almost always means _"bad design",_ because an objective & fundamental must for a Mario level is that even if it's kaizo-style difficult, it's still fair at the level of play/player for which it's designed. A "troll level" in this series is either *(1)* one of the 0.001% exceptions so side-splittingly funny it's worth it, or *(2)* shouldn't have been made. And *(2)* is the safe assumption if you're not a global-top-10 designer and/or working at Nintendo
@@MegaZeta Just saying there ARE some good uses for snake blocks out there!
@@MegaZetatroll levels when done right can be similar to puzzle levels only you die alot (when i mean done right i mean creative trols and NOT pick a paths)
Key word: troll
@@MegaZeta I don't get why with other forms of levels if people dislike them they just don't play them, or say they don't like that style, but with -troll- slapstick levels (because let's be honest, the purpose of those levels is participative slapstick comedy rather than to just enrage people) when people don't like them they actively proclaim those levels should not exist or that they're inherently bad design. Citing kaizo-style here is even more ridiculous, since the reason most people don't like troll levels is they break the 100-Mario/endless runs (which kaizo also does for 99.9% of players), kaizo levels are far more likely to be boring and repetitive (kaizo trick consistency levels) and kaizo romhacks also tend to feature a lot of trolls.
I always like using keys as trying to recreate Zelda dungeons l love keys
*S A M E*
I JUST wanted to write in the comments that I would rank everything with keys to best
Keys are the best
@@abol6906 ikr

2:32 dream wants to know your location
Aslo a good use for snake blocks is moving items and a timer you activate manually.
Yeah he put down snake blocks but gave the benefit of the doubt to the 3D World moving blocks lol
Really, though, it isn't really that useful, though. Since there are other items you could use like on-off blocks, which you could also press. And if you don't want it to be reabled, then just place a dotted line block behind it.
7:40 Proof that Odyssey is a pro Mario Maker player
Very Pro Gamer skills right there
Yep
Me as soon as a press that timestamp: *Gets hit with an ad*
Me: Perfect.
For 3D world Spikes, I think it would've been cool if they had made them 1x1 tiles that connect.
That would be very cool I would use it
Snake blocks in tech levels? It's basically like a thwomp that detects players but you can decide exactly where it goes. Super useful. Same goes for seesaws, icicles and claws
Don’t thwomps already detect players?
@@taiscommentingaccountusedf1908Yeah, and snake blocks specifically _don't_ detect players, so the comment (and its 101 likes and counting) is doubly baffling
@@MegaZeta A bit late, but I was referring to the idea of an entity that triggers when the player touches a certain set of tiles. Obviously Thwomps have other major differences, I was just using it as an example since it's used in a lot of tech
Dont thwomps like...
Murder you
Fun fact:
There is no fun fact just enjoy odyssey's video
Ok, I will, ty (:

Well that’s easy. I was already doing that
There actually is one. In 0:40 when he says 42 gizmos he has exactly 42 coins.
@@mcchaos2137 oh nice
“Theres about a 1-7.5 trillion chance of me liking a level with the snake block” I see what you did there.
What?
Somewhere, dream stans are raging
What did he
9:55 The crates were another item that were very difficult to place.
*Places a crate*
He meant difficult to rank, not to actually place a crate
You don't say
so THIS is how he spends his weekends
And I’m ok with that
and im too
Make a “Ranking Clear Condition” video!
Ranking every block
Yes, both are cool
YES!
I love BLOCKS
Ranking every terrain!
For snake blocks, there was a cool speedrun level where you had to basically make it in time or miss the snake block
It's still more likely to find 10 good snake block levels in Super Expert than Dream's 1 in 7.5 trillion chances speedruns though
Oof
😡
@@superhappygamer1162 Thanks not hapy
Dream cheated.
thank you DanielTheCake for replying to my comment 10 months later
I wish you had mentioned that arrows can be used to light dark levels. You can even cover the arrow with ground blocks to make certain areas glow, which is much better than using fire or pickup-albe items. This is essential to know if you make a dark level (that isn’t in SMB1 because it doesn’t work there for some reason).
its cause all game styles have different glowing things, and they made smb1 the most realistic for whatever reason
The Phanto Key is upset that you didn't talk about him. He's so forgotten that i don't think even you remembered that they existed
I think he would have placed it in the Very Niche or Niche tiers.
They would just be with the key
@@2001CuisinartToasterr the phanto key have so much different with normal key
Mac_bomber still a variation of the key
They could include style specific variants of the icicle such as stalactites (cave) or drills (airship) for the other styles. Also the giant icicles that land, stick in the ground, then sometimes fall over from NSMB would be nice to have.
Thanks for the advice I’m gonna make an auto scroll level with snake blocks now :)
what have I done...

Lol

Dry bones for smash
@@Theeguyyyyy Smash for drybones
YEAH I WANT HIM IN SMASH! ( Although I’m pretty happy Steve is in! )
@@2001CuisinartToasterr odyssey smashing drybones
One ways are also global items, which means they can be used for ELB contraptions without counting towards the entity limit, and they don’t have to be loaded for it to work. (I also think they are global ground but haven’t tested, snake block is global ground tho)
The twister is actually unique. You can make cool illusions with them if you stack a lot on eachother
I'm glad that you put the banzai bill in the main 4 themes where it deserves to be
Kamek has been snuffed from Mario Kart.
Dry Bones has been snuffed from Smash.
But nobody is talkin about my boy, Goomba, who was snuffed from both!
12:30 a dash block next to a pipe/clear pipe will make mario go in it automatically
Chemical plant zone from Sonic 2 playing in the background welcome to behind the scenes details
It’s funny how in the video he said he is going to rank all 42 gizmos, and at 0:35 the clip ends and he has 42 coins
Snake blocks are like hidden blocks, they are fine, *UNLESS they fall into the wrong hands*
also, Banzai Bills are a big hitbox that moves in a specific direction, so they are actually quite good
Love your vids they are very entertaining but useful
29:30 yeah, sending the player to cp1 in a troll level is always fun.
* SMB 1 Jungle night starts playing and also CarlSagan's 42 laugh *
I think I would move the see-saw and icecicles up, I really don't think you've thought about all the different uses for those. For seesaws, when tracks are involved they're about as using as the normal moving platforms. Icicles can be used as an interesting downward one way door and moving platform in addition to being a threat or decoration.
I think the snake blocks are very good for decor, and also pretty good for a short little challenge or little transportation to another chunk of the level.
I really like some of the levels showcased in the background. You make pretty good traditional levels! I'm also more a fan of traditional based levels but an applause for you man.
Red’s Theme from Gen 2 is in the background while he is talking about snake blocks.
Rank Every Theme from Mario games that should be in Mario maker 3 please
Listen to him
Well that’s specific.
No. Those videos are always the same
@@Yoshomay have anybody mentioned the fantasy theme from lost levels
No rank all the BLOCKS!
Let's be honest we all knew on/off switches would be the number 1 spot
Great video! Love your content. And I agree with most of the choices, except the snake blocks as I was super hyped for these to come. Also you sound a lot like Z3Cubing
I love the on off trampolines. When they are off you can use them as decoration or platforms
“Exclamation mark blocks are a great gizmo, number 20”
Doesn’t mention the fact that those blocks are the reason I HAVE PTSD FROM LABYRINTH ALPHA
Let’s go!!! A return to form from odyssey!!
Loving these videos dude! Great to see a new video!!
As someone who centers around kaizo, this is extremely helpful to understand more traditional level design. I’ve been in the mood to make some traditional stuff. I really appreciate your perspective.
13:16 actually they can be used as stalagmites in caves
There should be a video about the best level utilizing each gizmo. I feel like that would give people watching ideas for levels around different items.
Odyssey:”The bumper can ONLY push Mario back”
Clown cars:”Am I a joke to you?”
love your videos! keep up the good work!
Odyssey central is so entertaining
The best Gizmo is obviously the Unpredictable snake block as it provides a simple challenge to find you way across large gaps and lava. pair it with a twister and get ready to hit your T.V with Excitement Is what i took from this video.
Shity Freedom Server
If the snake block has to go up though, the Twister is gonna fall off.
I also like using lava lifts to mark boss doors, since if you put them on a track, they only show one skull, which can be useful to signify a difficult challenge coming up
Do you know odyssey central?
Yes, the one who put the dash panels above the seesaw.
wait so some gizmos are useless, how am i not one?
Ummmmmm...
Dark meme
Because he ranked them very, very wrong.
Also, you ain’t a gizmo.
"There is like a 1 and 7.5 trillion I'll ever like a level using one of these promontory. Which are, by the way impossible odds."
Me: "I haVe bEen LEarNinG mAth frOM OdyssEY cEntrAL!"
I like how you used In The Final for the top-tier. Nice touch.
Idk if you already tried this with track blocks from 3D World style, but the best use I found was a resettable one way door that moves out from a room you can only enter by a warp box or some other one way means in to prevent one from collecting pink coins easily in a puzzle room and skip the gimmicks altogether yet have a faster way back to the door to go to another pink coin room
We all must admit on-off switches are the face of SMM2
You mean slopes
I barely see anyone using the Snake Blocks in their levels.
You are a very lucky soul
Snake Blocks are very good for troll levels.
Yeah
Snake blocks are really good for kaizo platformers
The gizmos are the items that truly bring a stage to life. This ranking certainly helped me with using them effectively
I love the jokes and memes hidden in the Video! Keep up your great work!

Ya I have found many gizmos to never be useful but this really helps!!! Thank you!
@Henry Moul I’ve watched the nearly useless section of the video and that is what I was talking about
@Henry Moul ya it was like 2 mins
2:30 that reference tho 😆
Didn't even notice that the first time I watched this
I was literally just watching another one of your videos, than I see this notification and I’m like “What????”
I saw his comunitty tab and prepared for it
Same lol
Claws can be used very well in troll levels, to activate contraptions when the player is at a certain spot
You put so much effort into your videos and you've been yt forever. You deserve more subs
4:12 woah. I mean I get why you put it here but this thing is incredibly useful for 3D World contraptions. 3D World is super restrictive with what items can be placed over each other, but this semi solid can be pretty much anywhere making many 3D World contraptions no longer impossible or much more compact
Why did he spend 2 minutes on the snake block when he hates it so much
Great vid! Unfortunate that you don’t like the snake block, though I agree it’s difficult to use properly and isn’t designed well. The one major level I use them in revolves around swapping between snake blocks and land in a traditional level, giving the player coins and enemies to deal while they wait for the Snakeblock.
Great analysis of all these gizmos!!
Another good use world be like the 5-tower level, you do switch between, as well as adding unchain chomps on tracks to remake the pendulums. Only if we could make them big.
Snake blocks become really useful and provide interesting challenges when there's multiple of them
The on off trampoline canne used like a semi solid block in 3d world that actually goes through ground!
I like how you play Sonic music whilst talking about the Dash Panels
Man seriosly why is the skull snake are in 21? And i see an very fast 9+10 who is equal to 19 no seriously Is literaly the same as the snake, too slow or too fast what is the ultilyty of this??? Should be 1 after the snake it just are useful for decoration i don't understand you.
I agree, the Lava Lift is underrated
..snake block is last place..
Next video: Ranking all enemies
watching this as a troll map creator/player is so interesting since so many items ranked lower are very useful for us or at least not as useless as the teirlist has them. very cool and interesting
1000 IQ take on bumpers, one of the most slept on items in MM2, except for all the people who make any useful contraptions at all :)
I hade this notification!
I, too hade this notification.
One way to make snake blocks less despicable is having tracks indicate the snake blocks path. Also, a great example of a snake block level is PePanga's Snake Charmer. It is kaizo, but it displays elements that are pretty great with snake block.
Your my favorite channel because it teaches me a lot about the game.
Cool video!
Snake block is best
Some of the lower tier gizmos are pretty great in troll levels. You can hide a powerup behind a banzai bill, same with the snake blocks to break through bullet bill launchers.
Also the see saw is waaaaay too low, the amount of mechanisms they enable is crazy
Hello Odyssey Central! I am a CZcams curator. I special in Video Games. I must say that this video is a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars! The way that you explain and speak makes this video infinitely better. I watched this through 2 times. The first time I watched it, the second time I just listened. I feel like I was listening to the radio. It was stunning! Keep up the great video and together we can pray Dry Bones makes it to smash one day!
Don’t forget to like the video!
I think this list is pretty fair, nothing I really disagree with. Great job!
The snake block isn't useless as it can be used in some timer set-ups the player needs to activate.
and it is global ground
@@SomeoneWeird-vx5jx I actually didn't know that part
Let’s goooo
I watch ur videos
29:03 "I have no recollection of how we made boss fights before these were added in Mario Maker 1 as an update."
I remember seeing an official Nintendo trailer in which they explained that you can make a level where you have to fight Bowser Jr. because you need his clown car to proceed. And a level where you have to fight Bowser because he is blocking your way. I don't remember where I saw this video but I think its purpose was to showcase the then-recently added Boss music sound effect.
This video is so good!
I don't understand how one person can rank all the gizmos individually when their whole purpose is for them to be used together to create complex contraptions.
Personally, I don't like this video because you rank them specifically for only platforming and ignore their true purpose as contraption makers. Snake blocks are probably one of the best gizmos for complex contraptions and banzai bills are useless.
You also never consider how helpful these items are in 3D World, where so many things are exclusive and not available. This limits and changes things dramatically.
As I said in the video I did take their use in contraptions into account, in fact I mention them very often in the video so not sure where you got I was only considering platforming from.
Also you don't like any of my videos cause you comment negatively on all of them so I guess this isn't very special then lol
@@Odyssey_Central I'm not saying that, I'm just saying that some people use snake blocks a lot in their contraptions and that you stereotype a lot. You make good content, I just want to see you judge things less and see the more fun side of you.
@@ShimmeringVapidCoal As I said in the snake block segment I'm sure good uses exist, I just don't know them. I would still place them low on the list however since they're uses that have been told to me in the comments are done far better with other items. Also if you don't want me to judge so much, don't watch my ranking videos, where the whole point is the rank and judge things...
@@Odyssey_Central 95% of your channel is ranking videos. That means that you are basically telling me not to watch your videos.
@@Odyssey_Central I just want to see more variety in your videos. You do so much ranking things, why can't you experiment and try doing a playthrough or a theory video, or just anything different? The reason I comment negatively is because you don't take risks or try new things, it's just the same thing over and over again. I understand if this is the main standing point of your channel, but what is wrong with experimenting and taking a few risks? You have a great channel Odyssey. Use it.
Would it be possible to make a top 10 Zelda games vid
there are only 19 games
@@regularben so???? Don't matter,maybe rank all the games?
I mostly agree with you with this video. 😊 I use twisters sometimes but never snake blocks lol.
Fun fact if you have a blue platform with wings fall onto lava decending at the fast speed then the platform will float on the lava
What is happening is that when the platform touches the lava it’s speed gets decreased to a point where it is slower than the lava but then it goes back to being faster than the lava when it stops touching it which makes it that it just stays on the lavas surface I’ve actually used this in a level I’ve made called lemmys dodgeball castle
Where you have to avoid Lemmy as the platform decends to the bottom where you can then get a busy beetle to knock the spike top off of his head and actually beat him
