Smash Brothers Melee: The Knee [updated]

[8008Sful]

Really you spent several years perfecting it wtf man it takes two fingers to do the knee so your basically saying it took you years to perfect how to press two buttons

[SgtHaleNathan]

i knew this techniques and i doesnt watched your video so what is the mean? Right, youre Fag. Ever Child in 6 Years can beat this Game like a Pro man youre nothing

[JoeRo55]

"Combo 1: Knee Knee, Combo 2: Knee Knee Knee, Combo 3: Knee Knee Knee Knee."

[Nomad6763]

i used to play captain falcon... then i took an arrow to the knee...

[ferrishthefish]

@Nomad6763 I used to like Link's matchup vs. Falcon. Then I took a knee to the arrow.

[SirBrittanicvs]

We have a rule in Melee where if you play as C. Falcon you have to get at least one K.O. with both the Falcon Punch and Doom Knee.

[Darksky1001able]

Man , captain falcon does the abortion knee so well.

[timmy69690]

We are the knights who say KNEE, KNEE

[Darkschizotypal]

How do you do that ledge knee?

[jamesbond7477]

falcon is the king in melee, in brawl he is average compared to the others -_-

[Crazd22]

@jamesbond7477 In Brawl, he's among the worst!

[jamesbond7477]

@Crazd22 that explains why almost every one is good with him right?

[Crazd22]

@jamesbond7477 Maybe? He's easy to use if that's what you mean...

[SimonSaysWeCanParty]

Cool

[Darksky1001able]

Where I live we call this knee move of his the Abortion Knee.

[jojohharris]

@AuroraBoredom words to live by

[HoorayForJay]

"With these techniques in mind you'll be well on your way to getting punched in the face by your friends"

YESZ!

[bluefalcon7]

dammit i never thought of using the instruction manual. :p

[MaverickHunterVile]

Can you tell me the musics that play in the video? I would appreciate it

[Sneakyrat300]

I liked the part where Cpt Falcon knee'd his opponent

[Zarode]

Knee Knee crossup Knee

Wait, what do you mean this isn't Third Strike? Knee

[lennyspizza]

How do you unlock FD

[dewittgarry]

@AfroNinjaDotCom Funny (and informative) video, song names?

[crafty117]

Cannot upvote enough

[yoshigamer141]

THE KNEEEEEEEEE

[TheAesirGod]

you should have put dropzone-ing in this vid.

[Multimanjuan]

this would also work in super smash bros brawl right

[DoGmAnGuY1758]

@Multimanjuan not really, they weakened the knee for brawl because it was a 100% chance of rape

[TheAesirGod]

@DoGmAnGuY1758 actually, falcon nerf'd himself for brawl, because he knew that if he used 1/99 of his power like in melee for brawl, he would make metaknight look like a low tier. he would just be too godlike for that piece of shit game to handle.

[DoGmAnGuY1758]

@TheAesirGod of course, because why would a raping machine want to even be in a shitty game like brawl?

[TheAesirGod]

@DoGmAnGuY1758 exactly.

[TheAesirGod]

@Multimanjuan no because brawl is garbage.

[TheAesirGod]

@Multimanjuan also just because in brawl: the game  is too slow, falcon doesn't have enough priority, the game doesn't have enough hitstun, the knee/falcon is nerf'd (explained in earlier post), brawl sux, there is no L-canceling (for knee combos and whatnot), and most of these things just only work with melee's physics.

[Multimanjuan]

@TheAesirGod yeah true i tried it in brawl it didnt work at all beside the brawl game slower than melee they were faster in melee n so was the home run bat n sonic is fastest

[TheAesirGod]

@Multimanjuan wtf does the home-run bat have to do with anything? and sonic is fast, but he still blows... just like brawl in general, bad game.

[Thesicksix]

" I caped you got got kneed anyway" ... *video*

LAMO!!!

Just call the game "Super Smash Bros: The Knee"

[ladudinator]

0:22 oh. Look at that. Knee of Justice TO THE FACE!!!

[GoldDiaruga]

Lol, the music starts when Captain Falcon hits Bowser with "THE KNEE"

[maybe106]

Please tell me you were joking apart the part when you couldn't do an f-air...

[Felgrand101]

I lol'd hard at 4:36

[0zzyQsbourne]

whats the song that starts at "part 2:" it sounds very progy lol

[bobywade517]

Solute the Knee

SOLUTE~

[PsyPstorm]

thank God this type of gameplay was done away with in brawl

[TheAesirGod]

@PsyPstorm wat? competitive, well balanced, skill based, fast paced gameplay? excuse me for liking a game that takes skill to win at over a game that was designed to (and effectively does) destroy competitive smash. In brawl you move at 2/3 the speed of melee, there is no hitstun (making combos non-existent), and the character balance is horrible... metaknight is broken. Brawl is basically a party game... not a competitive fighting game like melee. and brawl certainly isn't skill based...

[iamjordandavoll]

I just wanted to come and tell you that i practiced the knee from a ledge, and today i got a double kill backwards knee. it was just the best moment of my life

[chepe610]

@iamjordandavoll knee from ledge is easy, don't get stuck doing that a lot. mix up the way you get back on the stage and even nair back on the stage is beast.

[MrJonas04]

with every knee, a woman on the world gets pregnant.

[gamefreak0931]

lol honestly didnt know what the knee really was until brawl cuz i was always kirby in melee. however for a 3 year old... I HAD SKILLZ! i took on level 9s all the time! until i got brawl... i played twive as muck as melee and got use to brawl. i still have some melee skills though. i still play brawl more. but one reason is cuz my melee has scratches so it some time has errors...

[TheAesirGod]

@gamefreak0931 get a new melee disk and just sell ur brawl.

[gamefreak0931]

@TheAesirGod Why would I sell it? And the errors are occasional. I prefer Brawl over melee anyway

[TheAesirGod]

"I never figured that anybody actually LIKED brawl... I just figured some people had more of a tolerance to bad games" ~ SSBM Bones

Brawl is a terrible game competitively, there is no character balance, the game is to slow, there is not enough hitstun (making no combos), the physics are awkward and just bad in general, metaknight is broken (having no bad matchups and a huge advantage over most characters), Tech skill and being good are not as important, Prediction isn't as useful...

[TheAesirGod]

Recovery is no longer an art, and brawl just sux in general... Melee is a far superior game.

[gamefreak0931]

@TheAesirGod I really don`t give a shit, I have my own opinions and I stick to them. i`m not gonna change my opinion because people are gonna whine over "hit-stun" and the physics. I actually think Melee had BAD physics. I mean why does the game let people go back and forth without sliding or anything? You can keep complaining but I like Brawl. And combos CAN be made. People just never bother to try because everyone won`t give the game a chance. And just don`t be Metaknight moron.

[TheAesirGod]

@gamefreak0931 its not somebody else's comment. it was something Bones posted on gfaqs. i was simply crediting him for that quote, which applies to the situation. and do you think he/me are the only ones with that opinion? More than 70% of the melee community knows that brawl is a garbage game. and what i mean by recovery is no longer an art is: in brawl DI is irrelevant... you can just float back to the stage, and your up b lifts you up super high... in melee recovery was an art, you used...

[TheAesirGod]

@TheAesirGod many techs to recover or else you wouldn't be able to. recovery is to easy in brawl. As for your argument that melee has bad physics... you do slide in melee... characters have different traction... falcon can moonwalk because he slides so much. and in brawl, yes there are like 3 combos... but there isn't enough hitstun for actual combos like in melee... brawl cannot be played competitively... brawls physics are complete garbage and the character balance is terrible.

[TheAesirGod]

@TheAesirGod Melee is more skill based and relies on tech skill, where as brawl was designed so that shitty ass players would be able to stand a chance against good players, which involves diminishing skill. Sakurai designed the game so that it wouldn't be played competitively. He removed almost every advanced tactic he could think of. he went out and said that he hates competitivity and wanted the game to be casual. Brawl blows. Brawl+ is mediocre, but still not as good as melee.

[gamefreak0931]

@TheAesirGod I`m sorry but I REALLY don`t care. I will only agree that characters are balanced bad but I still find it fun.

[gamefreak0931]

@TheAesirGod Also did you REALLY quote someone else`s comment? Man you expect to influence people with opinions and some aren`t even yours. And what do ya mean recovery is no longer an art?

[anthonytsaiat]

LOLZ i love this video man, nice work!

[richardl562]

does anyone know how falcon jump far but at a low height?

[snoman99991]

@richardl562

It's a higher level jump technique. Basically it's called hopping. Look around at advanced movement tutorials on youtube for ideas. Start with wavedashing tutorials as they give you a good heads up on it.

[DriftHero77]

"I caped you but got kneed anyway"

LMAO

[RyanKaufman]

Quad knee sounds like what the lady in The Shivering Isles of Oblivion says.

[TheAesirGod]

@mrboxman00 do u understand sarcasm?

[N00Bie92]

gotta love the "i caped you but got kneed anyway"

[MrPotatoheadshot]

lmfao i love this video

[Depalla]

wahahahah so hilarious^^

[TheBlueMario]

Someone should make 3:42 a gif.

[CrazyDaronMalakian]

@TheBlueMario to think that Mach Dash actually DOES that in tournament matches... XDD

[TheBlueMario]

I just about rofl'd when I saw the unnecessary knees. XD

[dragonslayah]

pretty hilarious video actually ^.^

[TheBanditKingKir]

Good video dude. Excellent use of descriptions and then footage. Well done.

[NeoTStyle]

I loved this video since I saw it the first time on Newgrounds.

Remember kids, a knee is best delivered by quickly tapping the X or Y button once while running, it's pretty hard to do it with the control stick, so better stick to that method.

[0ddler]

You're that Newgrounds guy. Lolz. I'm searching for melee vids and this popped up.

[TriforceOfDarkness]

I can only make a KneeKneeKnee !!!

but i´m going to make KneeKneeKneeKnee soon YEAH Knees of Justice !!!

[scissorblade99]

WOOT I heard SOiL come on and I was like 5 STAR!

[BikouTenma]

This is, without a doubt, my favorite move

[zTwiliz]

FALCON KNYEH

[Clouddark23]

KNEE!!

[CaptainAshMorrigan]

the knee doesnt override powerful moves, it has a longer period of overriding. which is why sheik is so disadvantaged against falco, attack, overriden!!! attack OVERRIDDEN!!! :( grab slap slap slap slam up smash arial, DENIED.

[ivancito7790]

KNEE OF JUSTICE!!!

[Iceman1234aa]

kiss my ass afro.

[MuayBoranWarrior]

How do you jump at such a forward angle?

[pattehfilipino]

its a short hop.

[MuayBoranWarrior]

How do u do that?

[pattehfilipino]

just tap jump for a short period of time.... hold it for too long and it just becomes a normal long jump.

[idontknow2yatube]

tap Yor X,softly

[kargos]

its about speed not how soft you press. Its the amount of time your finger is pressing the button

[idontknow2yatube]

the kinda the same,but your expanation is better

[pattehfilipino]

amazing vid!!!

[ranmaster27]

The first knee is the most EPIC!!

[solosoloblackdude]

When the punch rests, the kneee rises.

[NoReasons]

wut. lol.

[Animating]

"Remember Captain Falcon's motto : Any time spent not kneeing is time better spent kneeing."

LOL! Priceless. xD

[flamingstick]

this was the video that introduced me to sonata arctica. and the knee. so its pretty much my favorite video on youtube for that.

[Hornilope]

best video ever

[jaraha]

hahaha, awesome!

[BlueDororo9]

The intro is so funny XD

[Mky762]

sonata arctica silver tongue

[colgraydon]

When he said "is this even fair" I said "yes, lolzors. Its definately not nair."...

sorry for that terrible pun guys.

[friggerDrCube]

"ALL the advanced techniques- rolling, shielding, and even airdodging"

10/10 right thar

[lordentinikar]

Awesome, but you forgot the Sacred Combo!

[loveanjel2]

lmao this buddy and I had such a funny but hot time last night!

[qsxwdcefv]

captain falcon is SO SICK!!!!!!

[kennyboy619]

silentspectre is the MASTA on the knee

[Varil11]

best attack of melee

and remember

show me your moves!!

[Tassies]

yes, I love the falcon's knee, it's perfect, jajajaja, I play every afternoon matches of 30 stock with the cpu, and captain falcon obtains more than 70 ko's with his knee!!!! seee. I love to perform combos with it

[cuteyputy]

FUCKIN HILLARIOUS

[flamingstick]

anyone want to name the songs in this video? the metal ones

[darvanleonine]

at the end of the video there are the songs

[KaizoMK]

This is one reason why melee is still awesome =3

[Zenshra]

This is absolute fact.

Both the comment and the guide to the knee.

5/5 and fav'd.

[zBiyte]

10/10 watched again

[zBiyte]

10/10 would watch again

[ankraptorn]

Haha that made my day!

[gingermagicman]

knee of justice

[ANIMEGROOVE]

what is the song on 5:30?

[SleepingHero]

you made me happy

[LuckyFedoraMan]

Can a Captain Falcon such as this be beaten?

[ZephyrZott]

Dude I love this video, especially how you made fun of the guides and figuring out how to knee. Great job xD Made me laugh.

Btw, those combos are sexy beast. Yes.

[puchavo]

I like brawl's knee better because it stops time like for a second and then sends them flying

[Silvah91]

Yeah but the knee has like half of it's destructive POWAH!

[RedtheGhost]

Are you kidding? In Brawl the knee was nerfed to hell. It's fuckin' hard to sweet spot it.

[nambevo]

thats why the knee is even sweeter ;)

[lordentinikar]

how does nerfing it make it even more awesome?

[puchavo]

because now only real pros can connect the knee and i'm proud of being one of them ;)

[Shintroy]

Rule 34

[crayoncolours]

nice man but guess who it is!

randompedestrian!

[Milkshake330]

That was delicious.

[hawk5346]

i love your tip for any move+any move+ knee. i will consider writing down the moves that I will show people and drawing them out of a hat.

[shadowwalker102]

im gonna do it on brawl if i hav 2 XD

[Bibouba2]

The unnecessary knee is the best

[XxMinatoNamikazexX]

I love the knee,have yo ever done the sacred combo?(Knee+Falcon punch midair)

[ferailo9]

You know, you could have just said, "Aireal Forward A" and most people would know what you were talking about. >.>

[Scorekid100]

its so fun to piss off your friends when you use the knee. They're so close to victory when Bang! A knee out of know where screws them over and they watch in humiliation as their character falls to their doom.

[Supersukid]

He should've knee'd Black Shadow.

[Rocklegend953]

I dont play with C.F.,but still,thanks!

[ZekoX4]

After watching this video i have become the most hated kid on my block...all because of the knee.BUT I HAVE POWER!!!

[Kadardes]

honest to god this video is amazing.. like seriously.. amazing..

AMAZING

5 STARS

[violetamormeg88]

Awesome video. Falcon's knee couldn't have been taught better. You have my 5 stars!

[Brownproud23]

C. Falcon's a beast!!

[TinyVoices77]

"I caped!" "But you got knee'd anyways."

[KyockLee123]

I like the music.

[PitatheGreat]

"Any time spent not kneeing is time better spent kneeing"

[AnubisCidolfas]

This video was amazing. Both informative and entertaining. 5 outta 5 easily.

[crazyivanrjp]

04:23 = Best. Knee. Ever.

[dannyVulture]

the knee chill's bitches out

[Damascus682]

1) Knee

2) Knee Knee

3) Knee Knee Knee

4) Godly Knee Knee Knee Knee

o.o

[Raykillzone]

it was probably hard to you because you tilt up to jump the knee is easier to use if you push X or Y then tilt foward then A

[MetalMiller]

Nice, and even better with the Sonata Arctica

[StarfireandSakura]

Indeed it is. Knee + SA = win.

[Soledge]

What is the songs that you use in the video it sounds pretty bad ass

[Katvin1234]

my favourite is definitely the "I caped you but got kneed anyway". very satisfying as the final KO blow against mario/dr.mario. my favourite "i caped you but..." memory was charging up marth's B move to edgegaurd against mario on the left side of Corneria, while someone was sneaking up behind me. i attacked, mario caped me but still got hit and sent off, and it turned me around just in time to smoke that falco that was charging up his fsmash.

[johnnyman00]

actually what afro ninja says in the intro is true. the knee IS perfect for pissing off your friends. every time I KO'd my brother by kneeing his character he tried to kick and punch me.fortunately, im stronger

[orangejump11]

ahah combo 7 KNEE KNEE KNEE KNEE KNEE + knee!!!

[fosskers]

L cancel plz :(

[SnDLegendOfZelda]

Great video! Falcon's Knee of Doom is so OP it's crazy.

[Khanman17]

God bless captain falcon and his knee of justice. I cant wait to play as him in brawl.

[bxstrife001]

I had a feeling the knee had potential, thanks to you i have another way to piss them off

[MMMAAATTTLLL]

I have a question. How do you return to the stage and replace the rolling, jumping or attacking with a knee??? A reply instructing how to do it would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

[fetaltorpedo]

The trick is to push lightly away from the stage and then immediately jump onto the stage with your midair jump and knee as soon as possible. If you screw up you will die. Practice first.

[mdiazftw]

KNEE

[PerfectXyrax]

lol AWESOME!

[thebeatles94]

Hope he returns in Brawl along with the Knee move... then, as said by Master Chief, it's time to own some n00bs!

[Jakinthebox]

He is in Brawl!
