Almost top tier: A Pikachu Combo Video

[HitBoxMaster]

Why aren't any new combo videos?? Only those from 2008??

[ZeroTuck]

I must say, CPU pika's are the most spam prone, frustrating characters in the game. Pika Players however are just plain frustrating (good ones anyways).

[Rasulis]

at 55 seconds is one of the best Olimar whistle armor uses I have seen.

[AzumangaFan13]

Pika's down smash is the most bs thing in this game lmao

[w18ftw]

the g&w kinda sucked. if the first 100 dairs didnt work then the next one wont either

[wannaseemyw4ng]

pikachu has got to be one of the most frustrating characters to play against

[TheXYZProject]

@wannaseemyw4ng Haha he's easy to spam with but I find pit & diddy oth worst ha

[Jermesque]

@winddragon1000 no he's not. Anther his. his yt channel is Anthermoo.

[Rufus2322]

how/why do you use up and b towards the ground and you bounce back up? do you do a small jump after you to touch the ground or what?

[linger111]

it is but i think i might be able to beat him XD i haven't played brawl in a long time

im a melee man/ 64

[ScottySince1992]

why arent u using yoshi?!?

[smashbrolink]

0:35 to 0:39

Nice 2-hit combo. F-throw to U-smash.

Perfect dodge anticipation in the forward rush before the second hit.

That's how you chain hits together in Brawl; make up for the lack of hit-stun with good mind-games and forward-planning to hit without being hit.

[Sephiroth472]

a combo is a sequence of moves which cannot be unbroken by another party. no super smash game from 64 to melee to brawl has any combos in it.

[WinstonMosher59]

how do u get pikachu to do a thunder while moving sideways in air and not fall while casting it?

[xZlicex]

I agree...hes kind of a noob..volt storm would rape u (he mains pikachu)

[PikaForLife]

@xZlicex omai you calling Anther a noob LOL xD well i know Volt he is my favorite japanese pikachu :3 but Anther is the pika god nobody can be as good as him or better and raping him=impossible ;)

[xZlicex]

@PikaForLife thats yr opinion. we cant agree on evrything :3

[PikaForLife]

@xZlicex lol ok maybe i was overreacting xD Volt is really really good but Anther is just TOO good the only one coming a bit close to him is Esam ^^ but if volt keeps going like this they should both watch out...

[EXstormDragon]

It's really to bad that it's been in the number 9 spot for the last 2 tier lists but then again I'm happy that Pikaman's so high in the first place.

[Shig3kazu]

This takes skill. No noob shit.

[dumbiez71]

Super effective much?

[rmsprowler]

this guy is uber noob. i would 3 stock him easy.

[spritesunleashed]

@rmsprowler you think you would 3 stock anther? roflmao dumbass

[EeveeAdorable]

pika uers RULE i shoud know

[keenan150]

how do you pikachu pros QAC so easily... I'm having alot of trouble from the more obtuse angles

[MultiGamefreak]

needs some more chain grabs

[000skyves000]

Nice combo vid. pika ownd

[DarkIceyBird]

anyone have tips for heavyweights besides chaingrabbing?

[ramzeysid]

wow...that last kill was yummy QAC!!

[alexpro00red3]

There's a brawl tournament at my school tomorrow =D so thanks this helped a lot!!

[stargirl2007a]

you have brawl at your school?!!!!!!

[linger111]

TIERS ARE FOR QUEERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MegaSonicmaster]

@ lingerfailure111 ugh...

[linger111]

@MegaSonicmaster thank you for the responce

[ComicComet]

@linger111 I agree but this is a very good video.

As for my repose to the tiers, I beleive the character is only as good as the player.

[SteaIthyPanda]

@linger111 Except Pikachu is 9th...

[ramzeysid]

=D ur pika is nice! i love doin these combos with pika, so satisfying! i hate it when u die with an accidental FF thunder!! SO ANNOYING! i wanna learn a thing or 2 from ur pika!

[saitomitsurugi18]

try an accidental skull bash :( but it's fun playing with him though. XD lol

[ThaOriginChu]

good combos i would love to face your pikachu anther its awesome it reminds me f mk but just no spam =)

[silvershackles]

pikachu CG owns all.

[Izon22]

pikachu at the end:

YOUR TOO SLOWf!

[Ace8820]

how do you do those quick attack cancels?

[XAytherxRedictusX]

Dayum. I hate fighting Pikachu. :( A Pikachu pro can really be a pain in the ass, hahaha.

[Calvo819]

QUACK fellow peers!

[baltoboy]

And a good "QUACK" to you too, my dear sir.

[bennnno4444]

FUCK YOU BALTIMORE

[RikuPWNES]

QUACK back at ya^^

[Zmw192]

Anthers fuckin great

[bblamb]

do u vs anyone good?

[IronKingLeo]

From what I've seen, Anther seems to have trouble against Wario. Even more so than MK.

[SecretOrderOfMuffins]

not as good as yellow fever but still awsome

[Undertaker619RIP]

i checked aib and every says mk is cheap XD they even banned him in some tournys!  any way thanks for the vid ima work on my pichachu now!

[icewaterdragon01]

The hitbox for Pika's thunder attack stays out so long. Because Pikachu is also a hitbox during this move, punishing this move becomes hard without an absorber or reflector. I wish I could use Pikachu. The QAC seems like something that will annoy your opponents. I mean, I can QAC but I can't do it consistently like Anther can.

[arcshadow]

I'm a Pikachu user as well and I gotta say this guy is pretty good... I'm probably around his lv as well so I totally want to fight this guy..

Sucks though.. after all my time using Pikachu I never got around to learning how to Quack... Bizzare I know

[Traxypytraxypy]

Pika is very good but i find it's not fair to use them i like play too with pika and i can the teleport technique too but it still hard to practice it in a fight because good brawler can beat pika easy, with or without this skill

Nice pika spicky2

[246trinitrotoluene]

characters that give me trouble..

olimar and his faggot pikmin,

energy absorbers (game and watch primarily)

any tips for fighting either of these characters?

im relatively new, but I still do relatively well and have a grasp on it

[TheElderik]

I just beat my friend that uses Olimar with Pika the other day

Olimar has very gay recovery so every chance you get hang on the ledge!

His attacks leave him very vulnerable (especially his Smashes since he has to regroup his Pikmin) so wait for him, dodge and counter attack everytime

Grabs are also very helpful

Energy Absorbers well unless you are using Ness/Lucas, you shouldnt have a real big threat, just try to stay away from spamming those energy attacks and they wont be able to read you

[ZLVYLNCL00]

who do play with first of all?

[246trinitrotoluene]

pkachu

[Tujex]

PIkache crazy in this game. Anther makes me want to pic him as a 2ndary to DK!

[nintendofreak199364]

if faced anther and hes fucking crazy,with out a doubt the best pikachu player

[Askawe24]

Pikachu has an reflector?

I didnt know about that.

Otherways,Pikachu ftw!

[hsew]

no...IF it did, it would be absolutely unbeatable.

Pika rox

[ShadowKnight246]

If he's really a noob, then how about you brawl him?

[Greatermaxim]

There needs to be more SSB's games because he's only second-rate or second place in all of them.

He doesn't have any 'broken' 'cheesy' moves people can abuse that we know about.

But is there really an argument to be made about a game designed for entertainment?

[icewaterdragon01]

3:19

Holy crap. Anther is simply too good at using Pika's QAC. He knows how to angle it perfectly. Definitely a brilliant defensive tactic and possibly an approaching tactic. I know this technique isn't considered cheap because Pikachu can still be punished and hit while doing the phase.

Sweet Jesus flying across the screen that fast looks like so much fun! It must annoy the hell out of his opponents!

Go Anther!!! :o

[animekid9]

this isnt a combo video, combos are moves that do not allow your opponent to do anything, all these "combos" were dependent on what your opponent did

[XenoLives]

This is brawl, there are very few combos

[animekid9]

umm i know its brawl...there are many combos, none in this video are combos.

[XenoLives]

when i say combo i mean in escapeable like grab releases since you cant DI out of those, thats what i mean by combos comepletely inescapeable

[animekid9]

exactly, there are a lot of them in brawl..none in this video

[XenoLives]

i would like to know, if there are so many if you could name 10, (not including grab release) i would like to know these combos, if you can di or tech them they dont count. If you would please name them for me then i could agree with you saying there are many/alot of combos in brawl :]

[animekid9]

ugh thats immature..we both know a lot of them aren't named; therefore you're using that fact to try to prove me wrong

10 named ones? hard to find; 10? easy

[XenoLives]

they dont have to have names, just explain to me what they are, never asked for their competative names

[XenoLives]

oh yeah btw they cant be like just this move gets you one more they have to be more than like 2 hit commbos because those really dont count thats more of a string, i mean like long combos like 5-6 hits

[Scipion121212]

1 DK sideB to anything 2 CF AC Dair to knee 3 CF Nair cancel to many moves 4 ZSS staled buffered dash-attack chain 5 Jab locks (I am counting these as one) 6 ZSS Blaster/Dsmash to many things 7 Falco DACUS (dash attack hitbox appear before the cancel) 8 Fox Dair to Utilt/shine/Upsmash (no joke, depending on %) 9 Ganon SideB to many things 10 Fox shine to dash attack 11 CF (early %) Uair to jab 12 Marth (0%) Fthrow to Fsmash These were random, real combos there are more I didnt note chaingrabs.

[Scipion121212]

And I didnt note chaingrabs (DDD/Wario/Pikachu/Falco/Peach maybe more). There are MANY true combos I didnt mention (not possible to SDI,DI,Techor dodge) like

13. CF FHAFNUS (sp?) Loop

14. Sheik Ftilt to many things

15. I think Squirtle utilt to utilt (low %)

16. Some jab cancels I belive?

And still there are more. lrn2srchnlurkn00b

[vancelethurin]

Umm yes those are combos

[Scipion121212]

I was reacting at Xenolives. And he totally agrees with me that there are alot of combos in brawl. He just got owned hard.

[Bodolicious1]

Yeah, I have to agree. What it REALLY is is chaining moves together at the right times. Cuz in honestly, anything is defendable. It's just playing to your opponents style.

[Dash092996]

2:01 - 2:03 Can you really do the Quick Attack that fast?

[animekid9]

yes, its a QAC (quick-attack-cancel) you quick attack up, then down and you have no lag at all so you can go right back into another quick attack

[Askawe24]

Bah.

I bet Pikachu would be at the top tier if more people would use him and not by spamming his Up and down special's the whole time.

Pikachu is a great character!

Its just more people gotta learn to be good with Pikachu.

[Dash092996]

I totally agree. Too many people use either Meta Knight, Snake or Falco. They don't even bother giving Pikachu a try.

[hsew]

AMEN

Pikachu is almost perfect. If it had a reflector/counter, Pikachu would probably be the most popular character.

BTW, I'd love to have a brawl against Anther. I'd most likely lose, but I still wanna fight his pikachu with mine.

[ashkan101]

Metaknight is a much better character. Check AiB or SB for proof if you want.

[DarkDragon2010]

It's not the character, it's the player...that being said, MK does have the reputation of being broken,,,I never liked playing him though

[blahinthe]

Metaknight is for noobs.

[paxpacis2]

Never lost to a Meta Knight yet online

[NeoAkira101]

And I've never seen a Blue Whale before, but that doesn't prove they don't exist.

So yah, crappy logic. Rethink that.

[paxpacis2]

Ok well maybe you're right but it's just that. Noone managed to convince me that Meta Knight is actually strong. I've seen yo many who did better with Kirby

[NeoAkira101]

Well there must be a reason why they're talking about banning metaknight from future tournaments and why the top ranked SSBB player plays metaknight.

[paxpacis2]

Perhaps you're right it's just... I can't believe that Meta Knight is so strong. I vere met someone whom I couldn't defeat at least once

[5T3PM4N14]

lolololol what a silly argument. Paxpacism, do you even know what AIB or GB is?

[paxpacis2]

I know aib -.- I think you were one opponent whom I could beat easily. TafQ ever heard of that?

[5T3PM4N14]

lol pretty cocky aren't we? well if you are brave enough to set up a match then PM me :p i can even record the matches

[TheBluBomber94]

You have never lost to a Meta Knight... online? Online you say? Rofl.

Online means nothing. Real matches are played offline.

[paxpacis2]

do you want me to call you noob?

I can't just travel to America just to fight a decent meta Knight.

[TheBluBomber94]

I understand it can be hard to find tourneys in your area (Trust me, I live in Australia). But usually there are people willing to play if you hold one yourself.

And it's just the way you said "I have never been beaten by a MK online" it makes you sound like you are saying MK doesn't deserve to be top tier or something.

[Kadardes]

you can tell anther has a lot of fun playing by the way he plays.. i mean look at the last clip hahaha i'd be laughing my ass off

[IronKingLeo]

beginning was hilarious.

Wario: HAA HAA HAAAAH!

[GreyWolf3636]

I like using Pikachu (the fair way not just down b) I went on wifi and pwned these noobs (with pikachu) then they all started playing as him and spamming down B...noobs

[Martainia]

You know the video it self didn't show very powerful combos, but I guess that's not what pikachu does.

I wasn't enjoying myself at the beginning, but damn.

The ending was SO worth it.

[CursedMarkZain]

i think i can use pikachu better than this guy i taken out many pple even wanna be players at my school and yes at my school we play this game once a week and im always in 3rd cus this guy use falco in a weird way that take me out in less than 30 secong in a 3 stock match and then cus of snake stupid high dmg

[wwwaldo333]

lol

[ultimamax]

Right. I believe you.

[ViDki]

Right.

[BetaRover]

youre a good pika!

[boy1214]

yeah...he dosent seem that good of a player...give me his number on the wii and ill play him...

[Chocobow9]

TIERS ARE FOR QUEERS D:

[TechNinja1]

TIERS ARE FOR QUEERS :D

[kirbzftw]

TIERS ARE FOR QUEERS D:

[246trinitrotoluene]

too much editing not enough gameplay

[sirplayalot11]

so that was anthers way of play?wow,its so similar to mine,i use a lot of jump spinners,as the electricity loks in my foes,and thunders to blast them away,either up high,or by my sides. i usually get first in second on wifi battles,but my god,these guys are amaizing!

anyone want to brawl?just ask,but damn,so talented,xP

,these guys...

[ArrowNnj26]

lol pikachu is a beast, this made me want to main pikachu

[kh2iscool]

lulz i couldhad avioded that thunder if i was that game and watch <3 icarus 017322750086

[boy1214]

hey...you play well...even thoiugh its a combo video...XD...fake...but you know what i notice...its that you should use the thunder...down b...atack more often because in the video you had like alot of chances to finish off your opponent faster but you didnt because you didnt use your thunder atack...give me your wii name dude....we can brawl some time

XD

[beyondbirthdaysbetch]

Do you know who you are giving pointers to? ROTFL. Dude. It's freaking ANTHER. He's the best Pika in the world buddy.

[Hyliansavior398]

Combo videos are so fun to watch, yet so unrealistic. Hit L in air and they fall apart..gg.

[Spyckie2]

I made sure to include some interrupted combos just for you - there are some combos shown where Anther gets hit or where the opponent air dodges and Anther reads it and punishes.

[benchidenkai]

@Hyliansavior398 but if u hit L ur open to a whole nother world of woopass. shush just watch and enjoy

[warlocklink]

Pikachu is one of the best I think..

[SwordmasterCrails]

Pikaspam=Epic win ^^

[Schmiki24]

Pikachu is the best of all

[paxpacis2]

really? I never get hurt...

[paxpacis2]

Thunder is super armor for a short time. use it next to exploding items you won't get hurt

[BladerZ528]

pikachiu is really useful actually, the thing in the beginning u did was just stupid

[B4NSHI]

pickachu is not almost top tier, maybe almost high tier, but not top

[LoneWulf428]

Have you seen tier list?

[B4NSHI]

yeah, have you? pikachu is mid tier

[beats6914]

B4NSHI... haha i played you online once, why do I remember that?

[B4NSHI]

i used to play this game alot, but i quit now

i played with zss/ddd

[beats6914]

zss mirror champ spot or something like that on gfaqs. Wow, so many hours wasted on brawl back in the day :/ haha, good thing I found my melee under my bed :D

[B4NSHI]

yeah i wasnt really that into competitive melee, so i thought i would give brawl a try, but that was a disaster

[Ha2Ramenfox16]

dude your the best pickacu user in youtube yet nice vid man 5/5 stars

[Blackiechu25]

ive dont think i have ever seen a wierder reason for arguing..... about someones friend.......

[senbonzankura]

one of my friends use pikachu, i think he will find this video intresting!

[lolobon21]

SILLY SPYKIE TIERS R 4 QUEERS

[M1sterE321]

Lol, Spyckie. Good stuff ^_^

I have some clips that deserve to be in this vid, as do many of the High Voltage members. But it's okay. Anther's the most amazing Pika.

Anyways, get on the Pikachu boards more often, will ya? :)

[Blackiechu25]

and i agree on ur comment lol. i just hope that i can be as good as anther without Quack combos its not my strong point....

[manLiMarth]

ANTHER

[richboyliang]

i'm not gonna pay 50 bucks to play ur friend. and ur friend is fucking noob cuz u boast about him no one can defeat me and he never used pikachu in his life

[richboyliang]

i am pika god i pwn anyone with pika power!

[PlayingPanda]

if pikachu has a super armor he would be top tier

[BOXINGKING1988]

I agree.. im a pika player..anther is the pika god.. but online in lag its pretty hard to qac because the timing is slightly different. (especially when ur online opponent is very far from ur location i.e america vs a europien)

[Twi5T]

ur a fag get a life.

[lovingmonkay]

FUCKIGN ANTHER

[DelxD]

so basically I just learned how to play Pikachu

[majorgamer55]

you wouldn't be able to do that online.

[Gr1mmy299]

... competitive play isn't online.

[majorgamer55]

i agree on that. button lags kill it

[smashes4444]

lol ur pika is slightly better when i play hard people when i dont i pwn lol like u i was happy when i beat a pro with my pika :)

[PlayingPanda]

3;20-end thats why picachu is the last of the top tier

[pikamasteer]

i wanna play thsi guy, i think my pika is a bit better btw he isnt playing anone good i can tell

[Dwakey]

lol.

[Korpocalypse]

love the b-up cancelling man

[buDinOdiMerDa]

[panzy40]

LMAO!!!! Last clip is da best! I gotta learn that. Nice vid.

[Jamesfox6]

PikaKILL!!!

[joliejolie2008]

O_O Very Nice

[drsusredfish]

aww man i was hopeing i was they only one who could do the "quick" quick attack. I guess i should have you tubed it. Now i don't feel special(lol) ;D Oh well.

[XxSpiffxX]

Everyone knows that btw o.o if u tubed it ppl would think ur a noob

[Blackiechu25]

u know he kinda did say that already...

[littlenemo5]

theres alot of combo vids now but i actually think they help.. everyone has a different play style and everytime i want to try a new character i search for a combo vid for tips on how to use them..and of course to steal peoples moves=D lmaoXD

[MasterofFlare]

QAC spam for the kill rofl

[ChOTAsmacho]

ese pikachu trae todo y mas oies una retilla pon tu clave brawl sobres, pa aventarnos una retilla ajajajajaja okk buen combo video de los mas chidos aunque sta un poco corto

[kimduy91]

Another great vid :)

[HorrorAlex]

Good, but i've seen someone bettar.

[kimduy91]

Could you post a link to that video where that person plays, please :)
