How to Play Brawl Like a Man (Episode 4)

[tiraivysexy]

i wasted my time watching three full episodes of this looking for tips to actually play better...and instead i get some guy trying to be funny...shit -_-

[ElDrHouse2010]

Lol I have a firend that plays Lucario and he is manlier than my MK. :(

Also I like a lot how he plays, he does it like a boss!

[realchris1Returns]

Oh Shit...Moonlight Sonata that is some great music.

[Jeffrey76515]

I AM A MAN!!!

*Punches a random guy in the guts*

[lucaskeene111]

can you make an episode about sonic??

[Narutofreak996]

dude it aint a whip its a chain

[Tempest149311]

I was recently watching this with my headphones on and my sound unusually high and I realized that not only did the videos of Lucario being blown up match the Carmen music visually, but also the sound in the video, from the explosions down to Meta Knight's swords slashes, matched the music so perfectly. To you I say Bravo!

[reaperdeathgod1]

marth is manly, because he was secretly forced to cross dress in order to save brawl from going bankrupt. wait, you didn't know that!? oh, my bad.

[Celestrian572]

this is better after 1:54

[lewa2000]

dude i already did all thid before i even watched this!!!!

[9fluttergirl]

Moonlight Sonata....:D

[rionnagasaki]

I am a man!!!! XD That was funny~

[Gulufnog]

whats the name of the orcestra song?

[hUNTeRindJ]

@Gulufnog The beer song :D

[olimond]

the true Marth fans will never stop sending death threats :P

[dbag105]

Lucario is the true definition of a sadomasochist.

[LeaveStuffAlone]

When Marth and Toon Link were fighting the sandbags I was like "Hmm.... SANBAG DID IT! NOW GO KILL MARTH!!!"

[dRevan64]

14 people hate babies.

[megazero109]

in a batte with lucarios at 999 i hit them so hard you couldint see them

[Asen4835]

14 people hate babies

[iamjordandavoll]

honestly, if your character can't punch someone in the face, he just isnt doing it right

[96Thompson]

lucario kinda sucks to me

[TheVader2]

@96Thompson You are incorrect. Even though you have made a declaratory statement based completely on opinion and personal experiences, you are wrong. Take a soul searching walk around your current town of residency, rethink your life decisions, and reply to me when God has shown you the error of your ways.

[96Thompson]

@TheVader2 umm... what? 

[TheVader2]

@96Thompson You can try and say that Lucario sucks, but IT'S NO USE. Now, you need to play the game again as Lucario, but DON'T TOUCH IT until you make sure no one is SNOOPING AS USUAL. Then FIND THE COMPUTER ROOM in your house and reply when you finally see how fantabulous Lucario is and Jesus gives you the fist-bump of approval. If this isn't done in 48 hours, then YOU'RE TO SLOW! C'MON, STEP IT UP and play brawl like a man.

[TheAurablaze]

the manliest way to play brawl is to play it however you want to. if you want to use marth, use him. if you want to use olimar with pikmin, do so.

[TheVader2]

@TheAurablaze No. I can accept the Marthman and the Olimar, but just fuck Yoshi.

[TheAurablaze]

@TheVader2 i'm sorry but did i ask you for your opinion?

[mtndew988]

i love lucario he my fav brawl character and fav pokemon 

[shadowthehh2]

um............how does blowing yourself up with smart bombs helpful? your almost guartenteed to die when you get in the 90s

only person who can raise his dmage meter without dieng is ike......and it doesnt help him worth a shit

[superfunnybeaner]

eww playing with items is not manly

items=help

help subracts from the manly

[fadi5333]

why do you think sonic is UNSWESOME? he is my 3rd best character in SSBB

[DavidKevlar272]

5:37 haha kiby's at critical and he targets Sonic.....THAT'S MEH BOY!!!!!!!!

[Lordlucario21]

I love the montage

[IdiotsOnIce]

LOL I only saw Blow Yourself and I was like wtf?

[UberGamer1030]

um... I'MA FIRIN' MAH LAZOR!!!

[rocknroll909]

The music at the end is awesome.

[pokemon1012345]

Blow your self up with smart bombs, but don't be in the center of the explotion and hold down before you get hit or your fucked

[The777brown]

i came

[randomancrossoverfan]

@ShadowClawX16 what if sonic taunt is true, i mean ganondorf IS too slow

[randomancrossoverfan]

rule 11 lol

[Freechips1]

There's nothing more manly than Sheik's sex noodle.

[Nickja217]

Marth is gay

[worrafdude]

i love lucario but you say he's # 8 on the man tier but then "secod place goes to lucario" appears what place is lucario? please respond

[DairunCates]

@worrafdude Pay attention to the line said when that flashes up. Lucario is everyone's favorite 8th place man tier resident... Lucario is also everyone's SECOND favorite 8th place man tier resident. He's third too.

[redeyedtiger]

@DairunCates He's also everyone's LEAST favorite 8th place man tier resident!

[TheMasterofsun14]

@DairunCates >:-S

[bonagofsky]

nope, we Marth fans still want to kill you

[monkeykingw]

wow, i never knew that during ike's final smash, if the brige is colapsing, it would freeze in mid-destruction. an other reason why ike is manlyer then captin falcon.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@monkeykingw try telling that to falcon, i would rather get great aethered than have myself punched so hard it blew up the galaxy :l

[darkaninglight]

blow yourself up with smart bombs LOL

[PokemonRulez2468]

Another thing: His damage DEcreases when he is winning DX CAREFUL!!!

[MrDorkStamper]

LOL the marth fans stopped sending death threats. I WILL COME 2 YOUR HOUSE BRING MARTH AND EAT PANCAKES!

[USBYDProductions]

@MrDorkStamper I totaly hate the marth downgrades

his moves are not hard hitters so it actually takes skill to play him unlike the cheep Ike counterpart

[MrDorkStamper]

@USBYDProductions Yea. Marth is my main. Sometimes he is hard to play as but u need to what his limits are.

[HaydenhawkMUSE]

it does work! i tried it on my friend when he said brawlers were better that gunslingers (Maplestory) God,freakin IDIOT!

[kanto27]

Uh, most epic montage ever?

[VaanArisato]

@kanto27 I AM A MAN! -Punches in gut-

[ShinMarukuOmega]

VIOLATION. Toon Link used an arrow (IE RANGED ATTACK)

Not manly. He should have self-destructed.

[DairunCates]

@ShinMarukuOmega

1. Computer AI's are a tad hard to convince.

2. The 12 rules aren't meant to be taken that much to the letter. That one's more of a guideline than anything.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@DairunCates wait smart bombs kill at high percentage so you cant reach 999% but bowsers fire cant kill so that could be used

[randomancrossoverfan]

@ShinMarukuOmega yeah computers ai's do it the hardcore way, do what you can to own, weather or not its manly

[dRevan64]

@ShinMarukuOmega The rule is melee>range, not NO RANGE EVER.

[marcameedi]

Geodude uses self destruct!

Lucario gains ultimate power!

Lucario lazord Geodudes ass!

Geodude fainted.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@marcameedi he fainted after being lazerd after blowing up?

[mysterykcad]

DominicFear needs to add Lucairo when he does the Lazer Collection 5

[oathkeeper3271]

i blew myself up with smart bombs before i watched this

[pfaccioxx]

3:50 Blow your self up with smart bombs!? ARE YOU NUTS!

[pfaccioxx]

The text between 1:42 and 1:50 is: Did you see who did it? Cant you stop this, my friend? Its too late. Now kill me. Why didnt you fight back? YOU! So there was a spectator. Ill kill you You little whelp. Youre not even worth my time. He was the only threat. Im invincible. Yes... It was

[legomaster00156]

Blow yourself up. Best advice ever.

[firegremln]

that was the most epic montage ever.

1337

[Zebeast123]

lincara ftw for some reason

[PX2MegaMan]

is kirby manly and also when kirby steals the other persons attack is that manly?

[Forthelemon]

Stealing other peoples specials I would say is not manly at all, but what do I know?

[CHUCK199626]

6:21 wath happen with didy?

[DairunCates]

Graphical glitch in the game. Some of the bombs are still going off.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@DairunCates by the way eating another warios bike is extra not cool right?

[DairunCates]

@randomancrossoverfan My god yes. It's practically cannibalism... Although, I'm not sure why.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@DairunCates by the way kirby can eat objects too, except explosives dont hurt him upon eating. unless he is using wario's bite to eat things. did you know you can jack another wario's bike and ride it? O_o

[fireblas8888]

4:33 music is timed with meta knight's slashes

1337

[sharingan652]

lol beer song ftw!

[XavierDrake]

who ever is playing against lucarios are retards maybe comps cuz its very easy to dodge his final smash

[PSshadow92]

Even though his final smash is a freaking Kamehameha.

[XavierDrake]

yeah its even easy to dodge using rob 64 lol

[FraserAidan]

aw you named your nephew after me thank you. :') for that imma post vids of fighting like a man with jigglypuff

[iamironpenguin]

I did the advice from the sages it REALLY REALLY DOES WORK! atleast when teachers arent looking

[randomancrossoverfan]

@iamironpenguin the gut punch?

[drmythbusters]

If u wonder ask Dairun Cates

[Nazo887]

Why does marth suck?

Anybody, answer. Why does marth stand no chance agains anybody.

I'll kill anyone who wants to brawl with marth. I blow through any challenge, any foe with marth.

Tell me, Have you beaten, no items, 3 level nine comps. with marth?

WHATS YOUR DEAL!!!!!

[Therealmarreoh]

right after i read this i creamed three lvl. 9 computer players with my best character... marth. try to beat pit, mario, and captain falcon by yourself. HARD AS HELL

[Nazo887]

I know.

Hav you tried to beat 2 ikes and one marth?

Thats pretty hard two.

[Therealmarreoh]

I dont like to fight the person im using because it sucks knowing they can do the same thing as you. Thats why when im online if someone uses the same person as me i just quit...

[Nazo887]

Thats a good strategy. I may have to try it sometime.

[koxsuper5]

i am the best ssbb player ever

[Nazo887]

I still kick your butt.

[koxsuper5]

u got online i beat u any time

[Nazo887]

Fine then. Im actaully almost ready to play now. You got time?

[randomancrossoverfan]

@Nazo887 try beating three captain falcons at level 9, i havent but i want to know is there is someone who can...

[mysterykcad]

you're on the hardcore side of the gaming spectrum, but you're not manly. hardcore is different from manly. watch episode 1 if you still don't get it

[Nazo887]

I really don't give a care about brawling like a man. I find it almost usslesss. like I said in one of my first comments, Marth is my best charector. But he's lowsest on the man tier. When I tried playing brawl with these rules, I found it impossible to do what I did before. Even if i tried it with marth. Im guessing that this video and all the others were supposed to be a joke, not an actual way of playing.

[mysterykcad]

the series is not a joke. the rules that are given aren't supposed to be followed unconditionally. they're more like guidelines on how to play so that you have that skill of the hardcore gamer and the fun of the casual gamer at the same time. it may be difficult to play at your best while following these guidelines, but consider that a challenge to improve your skills so that you are able to play that way.

[Nazo887]

Right..... makes sense.

It is a HUGE challenge to play like this.

But what I don't get..... why is marth so low on the "Man Tier?"

Like I said, I find this almost ussless as well. To me, Ignore half the rules. Play as whoever you want, you don't have to kill yourself after you finish someone off "Unmanly", etc.

[mysterykcad]

I think Marth is so low on the "Man Tier" because of how cheap his attacks can be, like how his attacks are more powerful if you hit the opponent with the tip of your sword. As for the rest of the rules, you can't take them too seriously, because this is supposed to be funny as well as serious. obviously rules like "Don't touch the hog" are meant to be jokes, and aren't supposed to be taken too seriously. You have to use your own judgement to decide which rules are serious and which are jokes

[Nazo887]

But wait.... didn't you just say it wasn't jokes?

And anyway, I really don't see how Marth is cheap. If you hit the opponent with the tip of the sword, sure it does more. But, really you ever rarly hit them with the tip of it. And what else would you say would make marth cheap?

[mysterykcad]

sorry, what i meant was that some are jokes and some aren't, and you kinda have to tell which is which on your own.

as for Marth being cheap, I'm just saying that's a possible reason for why they hate Marth so much. I'm not a mind-reader, so i don't know for sure. for the record, i personally don't consider Marth cheap, but my point is that a lot of people do

[Nazo887]

Okay, that makes sense, both parts I guess.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@mysterykcad he refuses to say why, so i guess marth being at bottom is joke

[marcameedi]

@randomancrossoverfan Dude stop spamming the comment box that is NOT manly!

[UberGamer1030]

@marcameedi whach out, this is about the time where he says: I AM A MAN!, and punches you in the gut xD

[Nintendofan4000]

Marth wears a tiara... Nuff said...

[juiey2]

@Nintendofan4000

so what? his sister died and said ''wear this tiara'', i would give my life to protect it, and i would wear it, ken is the second best player in the world, and first in melee, and he plays with marth.

Nuff said...

[Nintendofan4000]

@juiey2 That isn't my personal thought on Marth's manliness. I just gave that comment as a suggestion as to why he may be at the bottom of the man tier...

[juiey2]

@Nintendofan4000

So, why to comment on something that is NOT true?

Think about it, you don't need to answer,pal.

[Nintendofan4000]

@juiey2 Um... this entire series is a joke... I just wanted to add another joke to it. As the highest rated comment on the page I did my job. As for Marth personally, he is a great character. Sheesh don't take the video and its comments so seriously. It kills the fun for everyone.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@mysterykcad calling things cheap is retarded, i mean come on, doesnt it jsut mean very effective, yoiu dont want to think it but it is TRUE, and also they wouldnt put it in if there was something wrong with it, it IS in the game after all

[inferrro]

@mysterykcad

But seriously, don't touch it.

[randomancrossoverfan]

@Nazo887 by the way he has one move IDENTICAL to one of ike's moves, the counter move, down b, so ike cant have every move manly and marth have no manly moves, if they share a move, which they do

[ssbbtriforcepit33]

@randomancrossoverfan yeah but ike's counter is shorter so its harder to pull off

[iamironpenguin]

Then this is obviously you: An unmanly Player. You don't even try. You CAN use marth it doesn't matter how high your best is on the man tier it just effects the chances of you having a manly moment as said. Just try the rules it took me a long time but i have become a near master to them

[iamironpenguin]

Nazo did you acknowledge waht i said You can play as you want to play. You get honor out of a video game. You can't be called cheap. You also can be a man at video games. It is a REAL way of palying i have actually now mastered this. You may play as a pussy but you can be called a quiter and a cheapo and a pussy because you didnt even call this and you prefer to play like one play as marth if you want and u can still play as a man

[theblueflashx99]

lucario is an awsome character.

Dairun what are ur top 10 brawl characters.

mine are: Ike, Meta Knight (the manly way), Samus, D.K., Lucas, R.O.B., Diddy Kong, Lucario, Sonic, Ice Climbers.

[MyAccountsDisappear]

Lmao Pure Pwnage at the end.

[vitalijo]

That is such a good idea. And makes it manly cause your not really gaining alot with the increase in damage.

[KINGD353]

i thought unfair advantages aren't manly geting stronger after damage is an unfair advantage but still awsome but not manly

[franc1234567890]

If only lucario hadn't took mewtwo's place i could have liked him a bit more.... damn you lucario : (

no offense 4th generation pokemon fans

[Mininace]

ahhhhh im happy some1 is a mew2 fan.. lol, in melee i roxors with mewtwo and stuff, but now they took him off ]=

[mayahnati]

"Classical Opera + Brawl = Match Made in Heaven" so true...

[27CDruid]

Whoot another Linkara fan. TGWTGs site rocks.

[thrasho2]

am i insane or did jigglypuff just lose to marth?!?

[Spinwheeling]

Um... okay. This has just proved... that smart bombs are #1 on the man tier!

[sloashe]

one minus ness and lucas can absorb aura sphere but are that maly XD

[thefewchosen]

so who killed your master was it marth or was it his cat, or captin falcon. or some one else???????????????

[ajt1012]

marth aint manly enough

[dougsan123]

lucario sucks dick...

[hentaiseeker]

Rule 13: Beep the rules. Fight for maximum entertainment value, read LULZ. Suicide. Taunt. Risky to the max moves. Weird ass strategies. Still be a tourney tard (not!).

[fullmetalchymist]

hentaiseeker, you grasp the true essence of the Third way.

[SiLeNtDo0m]

I think there should be a 13th rule:

Rule 13: Don't go for the weakest player.

If you're playing with more than 2 people never go for the person with the highest percentage. A true man wouldn't pick on the weak.

[FinalKite]

Wait, that isn't manly. You're breaking 2 rules. First off, rule number 6, fight your own battles. Meaning, you shouldn't need to rely on smart bombs, you should just go in there and kick some ass. And, rule number 8, don't take unfair advantages. Using smart bombs gives Lucario the advantage. For one, he gets stronger, and damages the opponent in the process. On the other hand, he damages himself. But still, that's taking advantage of the smart bomb, which is against rule 8.

[DairunCates]

1. I also specifically said that the rules were guidelines and not to always be followed to the word (Ie. There are exceptions).

2. I hardly call putting yourself in a condition where you die in one hit to give yourself a small bit more attack power taking huge advantage. You'll notice in those clips that I die from the smart bombs about half the time.

3. I never said items were off-limits. That just seems to be an assumption some people came up with. That's its own episode though.

[FinalKite]

Ah, all right. I guess exploding yourself in order to kick ass is manly. Just seems risky. But then again, men always take risks.

[MarowakDidIt]

I blow the shit out of my characters all the time. X3

[pokechatter]

Why not just say Smart bombs?

[SilenceDoGood17]

Because "just saying something" isn't manly

[Techra]

what's the original of the song at the end? i heard another version in the animaniacs (gold rush episode)

[DairunCates]

All the songs are in the order used in the description. Considering Animaniacs and their tendency to use classic music, I'm guessing you're talking about the Prelude to Carmen. However, the VERY last song in the credits is called "teh n00b song".

[Brawlmaster1997]

what if people take items off... (MY FRIENDS)

[MovieMaker319]

"The Marth fans stopped sending death threats?" rofl. Although Im still kind of pissed Link got so low. Without his skirt thing I think he couldve made it in the top 15

[RawrItsJuul]

i'm not pissed and he's my fave it's just the opinion of someone else so i don't care.

[DRTisKING]

Link has the Same style of manliness James bond has as a Magnet of the Female Gender

[WNxLigerzx]

OMG PP MUSIC! XD

[the3rdwayman]

if you hate babies u suck ass

[silentasasin93]

if you hate this episode, you hate babies.. just think about that

[the3rdwayman]

DemonRoxas911 u r a fuckin' ass!

[uthertheking]

Sound advice from Linkara. I should try to apply it more often to real life situations.

[DemonRoxas911]

Marth fans unite and destroy DairunCates!

[parodymanstudios15]

im a major marth fan but.... I LOVE FIGHTING LIKE A MAN MORE.

[smashbros9798]

Congradulations Uncle Dariun

[GoldenJoe]

How could the first two episodes be so good, and these new episodes suck so much?

[Megahedron1501]

Playing with items on isn't manly.

[silentasasin93]

i dissagree items can be cheap but also they can make if much mor fun (i usually play w/ them off cus i always get killed by bombombs or somthin tho)

[Megahedron1501]

I hear everyone say that. But more funny stuff happens in the games I play with friends who play no items than I've ever seen with the ones that love the items.

[SlinkyWyrm]

*goes off to play manly-ER with Lucario*

[lnBloom]

May I humbly request a guide on how to be manly with Toon Link?

[sgnalfyr23]

Toon Link is a very experienced fighter, although his lack of age. I'd like some guidance on this topic too.

GoD BLeSS

[RoadToDawn51]

Hm.....don't know if I should subscribe.

I loved the first two episodes, but the direction of the newer episodes seem a little "lazy" in teaching us the manly ways.

I know you're teaching us how to play individual characters manly, but this 8min vid is just summarized by "Smart Bombs are manly with Lucario".

[DairunCates]

Eh. I knew ahead of time some people would like this episode and some people wouldn't. It's really up to you.

I plan on releasing more content this summer when I actually get my internet gets switched over (which is sadly taking a while). Can't promise any release dates, but I should have some spare time between looking for a job.

Also, I like to think you at least need a second sentence to sum up the first 2 minutes of this episode as "Plot Happens".

[RoadToDawn51]

Y'know, I always look back on my criticism and see that they seem a little too harsh...

I wasn't in a bad mood at all, so I'm kinda shocked that I barely said anything positive in that comment.

I DID subscribe so that I can stay in touch with your videos since LIFE >>> YOUTUBE.(not sarcasm lol)

Also, did you know that someone made a thread inspired by your first episode on Smashboards[.]com?

That's how I found you. :D

[DairunCates]

Actually, I even post the new main episodes on smashboards, but I had heard there had been some discussion outside the general video threads. I've only seen one though, and it's not likely the one you know about.

[the3rdwayman]

Dude teach me. Make me a aprentise. Seriously.

[wifiwizard1]

everything i go by in 5 videos. never knew my honor code in brawl was the same as this stuff for that i salute u.xd

take everything down with u.

[parodymanstudios15]

so why did marth kill ganondorf?
