 Superstar KO first introduced in Madden 20 It was a brand new game mode where whatever player you selected for your squad would always have their x-factor activated You got three superstars on offense and three superstars on defense You'd start each match with only three of those six players and as you continue to win You continue to pick up more players with the end goal of winning four straight games and going undefeated now every single man Since Madden 20 21 22 and 23 all have their own version of Superstar KO some significantly better than others I'm gonna take you on a little journey down memory lane where we're gonna play every single iteration of Superstar KO that's ever come out I really wanted to do this for draft champions, but unfortunately they took down the servers for Madden 16 through 19 16 being where draft champions originated So I can't really do that. But if you guys do really love this video, I'd gladly do it with draft champions I would just have to start with Madden 20 and go 21 22 23 now Most of you have probably already seen the video where I played Madden 20 Superstar KO I've done it twice in the last two months because it really is So much fun this KO in particular, which I talked about in the other videos really has no rules Nothing about this is simulation football and that's why I love it so much This is a true video game experience and I want to make sure whichever Superstar KO's I do I get at least one legendary player on the squad for people who love simulation football Madden 20 was absolutely one of the worst Madden's ever there were no real physics. The abilities were so broken. It's like everyone out there was a superhuman god But that's what I love. I don't care if I want a simulation football, bro I'd go turn on Broncos versus Colt Broncos versus Colt You ever had someone walk up to you in the middle of the street and they go wow You smell incredible.

It's golden ticket Ramsey golden ticket megatron free safety We better not lose right here now Here's the thing if I lose right now my team resets and I have to go back to the drawing board He's got the sheriff and legendary Ray Lewis solid squad, but I'm not so scared of Gino Atkins So I pretty much just gonna let Jim Brown carry me on offense and on defense. I'll user megatron I'll give you a rundown for superstar KO each player has a different rarity and obviously I got legendaries and golden tickets All that means is they have an insane amount of abilities. So Jim Brown's got wrecking ball He also has spin cycle bruiser running back apprentice outside and inside zone guru Which means he gets stronger blocking on every single zone run play and backfield mismatch and match-up nightmare He's got among men. This is an inside zone run place. We get better blocks on it I'm gonna go half back toss looks like this guy's sending some man blitzes. So let's just get around it I want to see his abilities. So he's got Gino Atkins who does have his x-factor But since he's a common he has no abilities Ray Lewis is legendary So he's got fear monger and all those abilities. Yeah pretty pretty beautiful thing Jim Brown trying to oh I don't have jukebox shoot if I had jukebox that would have been a good call, but I do not second 13 I'm gonna go with a counter here see we can get oh, I do have spin cycle though. Okay, so I can use spin cycle nice counter There's a little spin. There's an arm bar. I love this game Now super star KO you cannot use special teams. So I must score touchdown here to win. Oh get to the edge Nice spin cycle nice. I don't care. Nobody watches this video. This is some of the most fun I have playing that and I'm sticking with it second one Jim Brown. Okay. Alrighty second and inches He's been so busted you spin so like inhumanly fast, you know, like there's no way he can tackle me if I just do that Ray Lewis is his saving grace right now. I would have scored by now one for Ray Lewis. All right You know what? There's some good defense right there. Oh, no yikes We're looking at a third and 31 after two consecutive bad plays. No, not atkins wait. He's there. Whoa What the hell I'm not too upset about the turnover there because it kind of looked like we were gonna turn that ball over anyway Now we go into tug-of-war which is the overtime in superstar KO. Damn. I should just kept running the ball Why did I ever go past? Why I was running the ball so effectively. All right, whoever scores a touchdown first wins It's that simple if you get to five plays. It's whoever is closer to the end zone So I just can't let him deep bomb some nonsense on me So as you can see the green is where he needs to get to now He's gonna throw underneath and get swatted away by golden ticket Jalen Ramsey awesome play. All right I'm gonna go with an eye formation toss Jim Brown. There's the toss great blocks gentlemen now We run now we run that was a decent one gain of five yards on the toss things are looking good right now He kind of has to air it out, but Megatron's up high in the middle, so he's kind of got to go to a boundary That's fine. Oh, did you drop it? He dropped it. Let's go. Let's go. We don't need much We really do not need much maybe just go stretch stretch Jim Brown. Let's take this home. Oh, yeah, he's up He's kind of ready for this, but I think Jim Brown can break some tackles here. Let's go Jim Brown I'm so glad we got Jim Brown He's so busted now we keep going we get a pick on offense so I can either steal a player from my opponent's team Or it'll cycle through some new players for me So the new players all sucked none of them were legendaries. I gotta take this legendary Peyton Manning He's got Omaha, which means I can see the coverage of their DB So I'll know what coverage my opponent's in every time. He's got Michael Vic Dang, and I wanted Michael Vic dude. I want to escape artist QB, but legendary squad Oh wait, no, I'm not guaranteed it actually because I can't take his Michael Vick So if we want a perfect legend squad, we got to hope that if we win there's a legend available We could certainly throw the ball a little more effectively now. We can also see his coverage He's got a cover three going out here. All right hand off Jim Brown once again Okay, great block. Oh I took an angle just a little too hard. That would have been a touchdown Tough tough one tough one tough. There's the counter. Get him get him. Come on. You're not I don't know what I should have done that the truck was aggressive, you know, I just was being greedy I probably get a rain around that guy second and 12 I'm not giving up on the run just because there's one unsuccessful run play I still believe in Jimmethy. In fact, I think I can get to the edge. That's what I'm gonna look for here Let's go. Keep going Jimmethy. Keep going Jimmethy. Good spin Jimmethy. Why are you the way that you are so so broken? All right, we're going left side dive with Jimmethy. I'm going to the edge cuz he can't stop it. Let's get through them stay up This is so stupid. I'm just I'm literally just running the ball over him. Look at Jimmethy. Where is he going? Where are you going Jimmethy? Why are you running? Why are you running? All right, let's pass. He's seen enough. He's seen enough run plays He's not ready for it. He's not ready for it. Oh, he's going for the strip He's trying to take that ball on my hands. Dude, I'm not gonna get held up right here. Am I third in goal? We know what coverage he's in. Oh No, oh no no no no Jim you have to make that tackle. Oh, dang it. Oh my god. Wait a second I might get held up here. All right, we have to stop my defense. We stop my defense That's all right because we can go into OT once again. Oh, no. Does he run the ball too? He's got Saquon Okay, he tripped so that's good. I could have been pretty bad. We've got the same squad here He's got the same plays I've got. Okay. Well, this is pretty obvious what this one is. Oh Shit, I did not know there was a QB draw Wow that Michael Vick is fast nice play dude I just gotta take my elder and honestly you guys have probably seen a ton of Madden 20 Superstar KO Especially from me so even with our God squad we take an L right there tough, but a good game Okay, Madden 21 Superstar KO pretty sure this is when they came out with the yard We all thought it'd be really cool and it was the dumbest shit ever There was a new event in Madden 21 Which was endless run where you actually start with all six players on your team and you literally keep going until you lose So we're gonna try that. There was also a new team which was You know, I kind of expected them to take them out of the game, but nope I can still be coach Gruden, baby All right, John Gruden. Let's establish your rhythm. Why not right? He's gonna fish right side. We're there ish All the superstars are in here. Now we just need Ray Rice, Ray Lewis, Aaron Hernandez We're gonna be on pace. I have pick artist acrobat and one step ahead. It's the edge. We get grudan, bro Look at grudan just saucing out there dude second and five another run. This guy's like me last game, dude Nick Chubb is just feasting on us Nick Chubb is just feasting on us right now The movement is much different. I can't run around like a fucking psychopath in this game same play different play What's he do? What's he do third and 12? Oh Nick Chubb's on an island What is that about? Fourth and 12. Don't mind if I do. Two freebies. Two freebies. All right I'm gonna show you just how easy this shit is with Tyree Kill and Madden 21 Superstar KO. It's like hilarious All right, so literally I'm just gonna put Tyree Kill on a streak and that's it. It's all I'm gonna do Oh my god, look at Miles Garrett. Miles Garrett fucking flattened me, but like what does it matter? Look at this shit. He's so fucking fast Pretty sure his showboat animation is faster than half of the people in this game Simple, you know pick defense I can steal his Patrick Willis like right out the gates I really like that option and yeah, there's nothing really good for me to take zone Hawk Patrick Willis Madden 20 they took Superstar KO real seriously. He's got D hop Zeke Elliott. Oh my god D hop in a Texans jersey Shouldn't be that weird, but it looks weird to me first at 10 Patrick Willis has enforcer lurker Stonewall midzone KO under pressure secure tackler and film stuff. Ooh film studies nice go Zeke Throw to Zeke throw to Zeke. Oh shit We love to see that Jared golf. Ah, yeah, he's got Jared golf acuity. No wonder. He's got nothing. He's got nothing All right, well, let's just keep things simple once again Let's just play action throw the ball to Tyree kill so he does have a big safety over there He's got um, who's he at wait? He's got that's half back Ezekiel Elliott. Yeah, you're screwed You've got half back Ezekiel Elliott in coverage look at him. He's usuring. He's usuring Zeke Elliott And I love the attitude. I love the effort, but it's a You have no chance. You literally have no chance. That's how unfair this shit. All right We're just gonna go play action again, and I'm gonna send a slant across the middle to Tyreek I'm a roll out roll out roll out. Just be patient. Tyree throw a block Tyree stop big enough to flatten him, but hey we get real close to this dub right here Let's just go half back blast the levy on Bell. I'm just gonna send this to left side another easy dub Madden 21 superstar KO aka get Tyree kill on your team and win Derek Thomas legendary right outside linebacker. Don't mind if I do let's go with gambler Aaron Rodgers Hopefully we can pair him up with gambler Calvin Ridley defensive pick. Whoo John Lynch legendary star. He has avalanche. Oh my god. He has avalanches. It's not a drill Literally every single hit stick will be a fumble that I think that's we really don't have a lot of good options But I am gonna go Richard Sherman and oh Look at the stash on Rod Woodson, he's trying to be like me Why are you trying to be like me, bro? Jack my whole thing. That's messed up opponent Scott Mahomes, Kelsey and Fletcher Cox I'm not too worried Starting on defense Mahomes wants to take on this game is already over that sucks so bad TTV go to hey works for me I can draft more players now a glaring thing you notice when you really play Madden's back to back It's like it really is the same fucking game every year like yeah, they really just don't give a shit And you really look at them side by side. It's like vomit. This will be my second offensive pick I really want a scrambling quarterback, but stay Travis Kelsey that way a legendary running back quarterback or another wide receiver is still On the table for our final pick up. I'm starting out on offense. Oh, it's Antonio Cremardi Antonio Cremardi on defense has jukebox acrobat one step ahead. Well, I'm starting out with a run play He's not even in bounds because I have Jared poverty go off, but still that's so unfair I have double me Travis Kelsey to so I could look at that But like realistically I should just do that why play if you just need to get Tyree kill see now He thinks I'm just Tyree kill Tyree kill this Tyree kill that that's what he thinks, right? And that's when you hit him with a double me Travis Kelsey It's fucked up man. It's honestly fucked up. All right. We're gonna go stretch alert bubble I don't really know. Oh, I had the bubble. Oh, I still have the bubble could not ask for a better start All right. Well, we got Richard Seymour. We got Woodson who both have an insane amount of good abilities He probably wants to throw in the middle. Oh, no, he will throw this look at the abilities on these two Oh shit can't look at shit now. Wait. I want to see these abilities once more if he's smart He just do what I did just beam one up to 38k. I got the tight ends. I got everybody looked at I don't have everybody looked at nice play. His name is Ick boxed you It's kind of ironic considering I scored on you in two place, but you know what this game ain't over So I'm not talking shit quite yet McAfrey. We might have a game on our hands We might be going into overtime. I do have to stop him right here if I stop him right here We don't go into overtime. Oh shit. He's got a running back He might be running this his first run play of the game Seymour got to him, but he still ran it in We got OT only bomber for him is I kind of just like bomb this up I think I start with balls I should just bomb this at the Tyree can like take my dog. I think this is over shit He kind of guarded it. I got thrown middle and Jerry golf missed it. Oh, no, he had that box Wait a minute. We have a real game on our hands. Is he gonna try the same Tyree kill shit? I tried. Oh He's gonna try an even better version of it where he actually fucking scores on me and I'm dog water See, I told you all you need is Tyree kill. He just did it better than I did that leads us to Madden 22 Superstar KO. I believe that this is the first year where they really said man Wait a minute. No, you know what was sick about this year though is they let you do campus legends Oh, I forgot about this. They had all-time college teams It was so sick and they took this out Madden 23 which I'm malding about because this was so cool Um, so many teams are so good I actually like Florida because you get to use Tebow and he's like a 99 overall with crazy stats So I'm gonna go Florida Gators and Tebow. That's my squad here. Here we go. Now. We got the Gators versus the Longhorns I like this Matthew McConaughey is somewhere on the sidelines dude watching this one Now if you go to formations and look at substitutions, you can see the overalls your player in this mode So most of the players are gonna be 90 overalls and each team will have a few 95s and 99 So I've got Javon Curse Brandon spikes Dante Fowler Jr. Reggie Nelson Marcus May Joe Hayden Jack young blood Okay, okay. I don't think he's gonna get this pass off not to his half back. All right We're good. We can take that because we can rock it. Hey Vince Young's taking us on man Earl Campbell Vince young jet sweep. Oh It's a fake jet sweep. It's a full-play action. He throws an interception house it. Oh Tim Tebow He's so fast. Tebow's got fast break and dashing dad I human joystick and evasive on Harvan and then Kyle Pitts has red zone threat matchup nightmare Let's see a Percy Harvan. Dude. Look how fast Percy Harvan is. Holy shit. If we can outweigh him. That's a tutty. Oh Tebow with a buff. Look at Tebow bro. Tebow is so damn fast. I'm just gonna press a button I don't even know what I just clicked we completed that pass baby and getting extra points for it But we completed that pass also in most superstar KO once you score a touchdown and your opponent does it you win That's not the case here for campus legends You can play a full game out in campus legends. So decent chance. We get a rich quit here. We're just boxing this man Nice ball Campbell nice play. I miss this dude. I miss this campus legends. It's so fun. It's been a minute since I played this All right first and ten you want to go halfback? You want to go halfback? I know you do I know you want to go halfback. You don't got it Jack young blood one of the best ever do it, baby Second and 31 he wants to heave one He wants to heave one. I just don't think he'll have it. That's fine. I want to scramble with Tebow Let's clear everyone out to the right side and let's move Gaddis out to the far left then let's get a double team on this end and see if Tebow can scramble out of this That's what I want. Oh, yes, let's go. There's nobody over here Look at Tebow. Come on. Come on Look at Tebow Tebow is one for one 60 in a touchdown passing and then he also has a 30-yard rush for a touchdown as well So that's that's how he's been Tebow right there, baby I literally I'm gonna do the same thing I did last time. I'm gonna double team this end move everybody out of the way Nice way to get it off. That was almost real bad. I'm going fake field goal kicker flip pass I feel like this is all I can do here, you know, like I feel like this is my only option All right I'm gonna run an ISO dive to give us some room and then we're gonna take this shit seriously here We go, baby. Who's who gets the ball here? This is don't know. I'm definitely going for it. So I'm not scared. I look scared, huh? Cow pits is still a very good option to Cow pits. Let's go, baby. Get up, bro, bro. You have to quit. You absolutely have to quit Look what I'm doing to you though. Tebow's having the greatest game of his career big time, baby Let's go. Let's see what he's got first and 10. Oh, that's pretty nice play. It's college rules So there's no two minute warning. Oh if he runs the ball, I am in trouble. He has not read the ball single time All game. This is play action last time. Oh shit. I know this. I know this. I know this I'm right here. I'm on everything. No. Okay. We're blitzing. We're ready. We're ready. We're ready We're rolling. God, you're so dog-water. First and 10. Uh, Percy. Wait, Tebow. Oh, Tebow Well, how the fuck did he throw that? Tebow? Oh, no. No, don't let this man score. I can't believe he threw that I'm so used to man 23 where you can't throw like that. Second and six. See what he's got We own you. Like, we just own you. You can't score. We own you. Your box like a fish. Doesn't matter what yard line I'm on. I'm just gonna convert. Let's just go to the other side on that. Actually, no Yeah, full inside zone. Great blocks. Great blocks. Get the block. Let's go. Wait, we got a score here We got a score. No huddle. Let's go. We got a score. Percy Harvin play action. Set him up, Tebow Set him up, Tebow. Play action. Got it. Harvin. Heave. Will he? Coach is molding. Oh, wow. We were so close. All right. We're sending Harvin deep We've also got cow pits that single coverage Harvin. I take that every single time Good Lord man. I feel bad for him. I'm gonna put this guy out of his misery. I'm gonna throw underneath the Fred Taylor Continue to shoot clock. He doesn't see it literally at all. All right. Can we punch this in? I feel like Kyle Pitts is the move since he has red zone threat. Just throw him the ball Do you yield? Dude, give it up for our boy though. Not quitting. I respect him. I'm gonna go Percy Licious easy dot easy laser 28 to 0 All right, this game is a foregone conclusion and that leaves us with our final Madden Madden 23 now hilariously a lot of people Don't even know that Superstar KO is a mode in Madden 23 But if you scroll on over to play with friends, there it is Superstar KO and sadly this is the year that I can confidently say EA is virtually completely given up on Superstar KO which sucks. This mode is so awesome, but with EA it seems like every couple Maddens when their sales finally start to They put in some new crazy thing to get people to buy the game. Hello. I like money So what that will be for next Madden? I don't know but sadly I think Superstar KO may be on its last leg if you think about draft champions draft jam is was so cool And it came out it kind of faded out then EA gave up on it Superstar KO kind of appears to be in the same boat We'll just go standard Superstar KO funny enough I played this one time and never picked it up again because I didn't like it But I mean like look at this like how obvious is it that they don't give a fuck? There's only three teams available. You've got ground and pound record breakers and fundamentals I'm gonna go ground and pound but like man, do they give up or do they give up and fairness I don't even know what legends exist or if any so this will all be new to me We get Chandler Jones ultra rare fearmonger compared to what Madden 20 even camp as legends in 22. That was awesome Barkley Lamar Zeke Rogers actually gonna go Lamar. I'd like to have a fast quarterback Maybe there are no legendaries. I don't even know if they exist, but we can get two quarterbacks Russell Wilson Nope Yeah, no, thank you. I'll go Devonte Adams with double me Mike Evans is low key a glitch to I'll just have two double me wide receivers and Defensively who Fred Warner that's actually no damn. Maybe there are no literally no legendaries. All right Well, he's got JJ watt and I had like low key though I love the Unis the Unis go hard in this it's gonna say torched his man But that's actually not true at all. I think I just lost already even in Superstar KO man coverage is broken I'm at 23. Let's try that again Travis Kelsey with double me Jaylin Ramsey with bottleneck I might actually run man coverage and another offensive Tyree kill She probably pretty good option one of this is as busted as Madden 21 grounded pound versus grounded pound I'm just gonna have to do the Tyree kill thing. Ooh, but look at X though. Look at you AJ Green I got Jalen Hertz at quarterback. You can't argue with that man. We got play action goes here I think Tyree kills probably the pass getting good blocks. Can I hit why holy shit? Where are you throwing Jalen Hertz? What was that what wait even was that do these jerseys go so hard though But can they please put these jerseys in like in mud head to head? They're so sick second and eight looks like he is committed to the run game try respect in his grounded pound, right? There's a play action. He's got absolutely something open gonna say nothing. I think this is a run Oh, it's play action again mine. Oh didn't get to it, but we do make the tackle Thank God see what he wants here. Did you go to his so to his wide receiver just a handoff to candy aches Tackled by Jalen Ramsey same thing same thing. We got to get there a good good good good good We got a fumble pick it up. All right We've been we've been gifted a chance to go into tug of war. It's hilarious How shitty this looks you would think that this superstar KO was the first one and the Madden 21 was the most recent But no that is not the case. You'd like to think that wouldn't you I'm just gonna heave it I'm just gonna heave it Terry kill. Oh, I keep trying to bait it, but I can't I'm not getting to in time I don't know if the end zone markers move on this one though. I think they don't oh they do I'm a hit Kelsey in the middle of the field pretty easy. Yeah play action wait for him wait for him Travis Kelsey beauty great catch Let's go. We're back to around the 50. I'm gonna go on Jalen Ramsey and I'm gonna I'm gonna get this in Interception this time. All right one more time, baby Travis Kelsey down the middle keep it simple keep my life simple Good ball good catch. We're so close. We're knocking on the door. He's got a he's got a heave one, right? All right, I want Jalen hurts in this game. I want it to be Jalen hurts Who does it man? I'm blocking everybody. I'm max protect and it's gonna be Jalen hurts scramble in this end Let's go good protection shit, but Tyreek so open. I gotta throw it I wanted to be Jalen hurts, but hey We got the dove this has been the evolution of Superstar KO from and I think each Madden had a cool unique way to make it Awesome except for Madden 23 So my hope in Madden 24 is they have some awesome new revamped game mode that nobody's seen yet If not, it'll be a disappointing year, but hey, I hope you guys enjoyed this bit of blast and I'll see you in the next video. Peace
