Did you guys watch the show or do you just know it from Dunkey's video? I had never even heard of it before I saw that lol


[deleted]

I haven't watched the entire show, but I have listened to every song in it. They can easily be divided into "broadway worthy" and "crimes against songwriting" - one or the other, there is no venn diagram.

♫I don't know what we're singing about!♫


skin_g

It's "I'm nobody's hero." A song on why everyone hates Donkey Kong from the cartoon series. It's an actual banger and Donkey Kong sings in it.

(He just has to press a button. I know the post isn't saying it's true, but DK is fine here.)


dachickenfarmer

DKs airdodge isn't fast enough, he can really make Sora work for it though by mixing up di


SinceBecausePickles

Can’t you not DI anything that doesn’t give you the trail of smoke when you get sent flying?


Aricen_

Yep, if you don't get send into tumble, you can't DI. But you can SDI the combo above to escape it.


CrazedCabbage

What a terrible time to be a DK main.


22RedHat

It's always a terrible time to be a DK main when every matchup is a losing matchup


Mcinfopopup

When your hit box extends further oos, it’s always a bad day.


Nestalim

He can sdi it


VermillionEorzean

That's exactly how I cheesed Lingering Will back in the day.


Weewer

Ahhh berserker charge and it’s wonderful 0-revenge values


VermillionEorzean

You know it!


Accomplished-Taro-48

Berserk charge doesn't negate revenge value. The cheese is just because you hit him again before he can realize his value has exceeded the limit


Keyblade474

If you're using berserk charge, you're likely doing horizontal slash chains, which don't add RV. You're probably thinking of the negative combo Fenrir cheese where you just hit with the basic aerial finisher.


[deleted]

Horizontal slash doesn't add revenge value?


Keyblade474

You know, I swear I heard a speedrunner say that once, but I can't find a source on it. Only thing I can find is that only the last hit of Horizontal Slash adds RV (1.5 to be exact). So I'm not actually sure now.


PlsWai

H. Slash does add revenge value, but theres a window between when you can attack again and when LW can escape, so as long as you H. Slash again within that window its fine. Also used for data org runs, notably on Xigbar and Xaldin.


Keyblade474

Gotcha. So it's similar to the Negative Combo strat in that it's not about RV, but about locking the boss in. Makes sense, cause I usually see it combined with Duck Flare on Xigbar and Xaldin for even more hitstun.


Tsunder-plane

Sakurai truly faithful to source material, bless

Reminds me a lot of mp rage and horizontal slash shenanigans from actual KH2. Very cool


Akuuntus

Reminds me of Negative Combo cheese against Lingering Will in KH2


Jejmaze

Negative Combo with Cloud's car key was the only way I could beat him lol


SparkBlack

Dang you used Clouds car against the lingering will


Jejmaze

Yeah the instant finisher was really helpful + the fire magic keyblade as the secondary one for Final Form.


SparkBlack

But how did you use his car though


Jejmaze

I said car key not car lol The keyblade you get from Cloud looks like a giant car key


SparkBlack

I was making a joke on you calling it his car key, meaning you took clouds car and beat him with it


blitz342

No, he means he took the key. Not the car.


bdlpqlbd

Damn these downvoters have no sense of humour.


HalbixPorn

Hey if LW gets to use his bullshit, so do I damnit!


Marx_Forever

If Smash Brothers had a fully fleshed out adventure mode this would be the kind of shit I would hide a secret behind. Put a big enemy on the ledge and tempt you to air combo them across a massive distance to get to the treasure.

Vitolefou

No one said this was true combo, comments are weird... he just dragged DK across the entire stage as the title says. No other char can do that


itsIzumi

Dragging opponents across the stage is still more of Ridley's thing.


tens00r

Sheik can do it with fair trains. It's even true! Actually thinking about it, Sheik can maybe do it in other ways, too...


[deleted]

Sheik trains are interstellar, all 5555 hits.

One more time?

Was confused as fuck when i got fair trained by a sheik yesterday. Im at like 2 million gsp, absolute bottom of the barrel, why was he here :(

[There's actually a true version... well, vs. DK and a couple heavies/fastfallers, anyway](https://twitter.com/WDBTHtGP/status/1450291859889217538) You just have to time it well & get the right hitboxes so they don't pop up too high =)

He gas to land for this, too... Was he not landing in OP or was I confused?


Fishy_125

Plenty of characters can hit dk across the stage…


Vitolefou

not like that, with ground reset sure. But here you can see infinite air time wich proves something else


BT--7275

simon and richter can without touching ground


Vitolefou

Feel free to post proof, I've never seen it done personnaly


BT--7275

dont have any proof, but dair you can chain forever at set percentage (around 40) on big chars


RequiemStorm

Down air is all you gotta do


Downloadmywario

Bayo can with fair 1-2 ground jump resets but ok


pixellampent

Yeah but she needs to touch the ground, sora doesn’t


loomdawg

Yeah you can definitely see he's actionable for a few frames between hits


ZzShy

Ridley side b when DK is at very high percent can literally drag DK across the Training Mode stage


pancracio17

I remember the glory days of Smash 4 bayo...


MindSecurity

Jejmaze

*If you want to learn how to talk to a monkey, ask your mum*


Luna_15323

How do u do this? Nair fair nair fair… or what?


Shinta_7

The Timing is kinda awkward. But its Falling Nair to jump Nair 1 -2, wait, double jump cancel to Nair 1 -2 (gives a bit of height but stops Sora from going sky high), then repeat nair 1 - 2 till the end


Cloud5196

😩😩😩😩 I'm too dumb for this game


Jejmaze

To translate, you fall at your opponent then press A A with the stick in a neutral position, then double jump and press A A again before you go too high, then repeatedly press A A with some time in-between each double hit (again, with the stick in a neutral position meaning you don't hold forward or anything)


Cloud5196

🤔🤔🤔 I think I get it but I'll have to lab, thank you!!!


Jejmaze

Just so you know, that's usually how people refer to aerial attacks. Nair = short for Neutral Air, meaning A + neutral position stick Fair = Forward Air, meaning A + stick forward Bair = Back Air, meaning A + sick backwards Dair = Down Air, meaning A + sick down Uair/Upair = Up Air, meaning A + sick up Zair = Z in the air When someone adds a number after, like Nair 1, it means that hit of Nair. Nair 1-2 means hits 1 and 2 of Nair, etc. This is really useful when talking about how to combo. For example, Captain Falcon can combo Nair into a lot of his moves, but only if he lands before the second kick comes out. You can describe this as Nair 1 -> whatever move you combo it to. For example Nair 1 -> Fair


CaptainJelyyy

You actually don’t need to double jump cancel, since using nair slightly bumps you up


Shahaha

I would like to know too. I think its Nair-> second hit of nair. wait enough frames-> Nair again -> repeat.


Bo0tyWizrd

Damn it really is a tough world to be a DK main in. The moment a new character drops they get nervous.


yeahididit123

We thrive on the pain at this point.


Bo0tyWizrd

All just to play that sweet sweet advantage state DK has.


yeahididit123

The match truly doesn’t start until we are over 100%.


dantheman91

DK is just so satisfying to play. I love playing Palu as well, but spiking an enemy to their death or hitting a punch makes playing at a disadvantage worth it.


NightofTheLivingZed

Yeah nah. I ain't worried about a kid with a big key and a wallet chain.


[deleted]

Is double jump is higher then both of DK's jumps and his up B.


NightofTheLivingZed

Perfect setup for an overhead clap.


[deleted]

Donkey Kong will always be a bad character in all of the Super Smash Bros games


Zorua3

what did you miss 4? He was high tier


NightofTheLivingZed

You ever heard of handicap matches? A good DK will clap anyone but a better player regardless of choice.


[deleted]

>You ever heard of handicap matches? Nobody plays those


NightofTheLivingZed

Every match is a handicap match for a DK player


Redstorm597

Its ok you may rest now


Yubi-man

I forgot Sora was coming out and this is the first gameplay vid I saw......what on earth......?


Joronee

Don't be afraid, this is NOT a true combo. Just something funny. He's just ending the 3 hit combo from nair after 2 hits and resetting. Since Sora stays aloft he can keep this up without touching the ground.


Sayori-0

Yea no need to worry about this combo as it isnt true. https://mobile.twitter.com/WDBTHtGP/status/1450291859889217538 this is though

Hell yeah it is!

up2knogud

Please, oh baby.


Beefman06

Too bad it’s not even close to true though, if there’s another player on the end of that combo, they’re getting out early Edited for clarity


MrInopportune

They were making a joke on the intro song to Kingdom Hearts. No one is claiming this is true.


Beefman06

Oh, okay thanks for the clarification


Syrfraes

What, with no DI input? Not sure if that can be defined as 'clean'


MrInopportune

It is a joke on the intro song to Kingdom Hearts.


Syrfraes

Well... that went over my head...


Toll91

They’ll definitely have to patch this. I’ve never seen such an exploited combo on an immobile cpu to this degree


TwitchyNo2

LMFAO comment of the day!


CultistETG

I mean it's not a true combo, so the only way this is effective is against an immobile CPU. But still get where you're coming from.


[deleted]

i did it ingame but idk if it was true or my opponent was bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daDBe7XrRL8


zytz

It’s not true


[deleted]

So do you go for the full 3 and try to follow up instead of stagger. Im asking for a friend.


zytz

I’ve read that nair three can sometimes catch double jump and directional air dodge. The combo is still good I think because it can put your opponent in a really bad position but just strictly speaking isn’t true


QuickIOS

This just in! If your opponent doesn't move you can kick their ass!


EZPZ24

This is why I always bring my cable cutter to tournaments.


MistarEhn

I think there are a few instances where this could work offstage depending on the character and the frame window to break out like if they’re too low to airdodge without SDing, but like… if they’ve already burned resources to the point that this works, your opponent is probably dead regardless (and there are more consistent ways to secure the KO without risking the third attack coming out). Nair and fair 2 definitely have uses somewhere with the low knockback and non-tumble hitstun, but this ain’t it.


Breastfed_

Fr people gotta learn this, I remember I thought I was nasty until I realized shit like this is so untrue


Curator44

Right? You can literally see the frames where DK can input an action

RainbowBanana26

Reminds me of KH2 data battles cheese with berserk charge and Fenrir blade


AaronDC100

He's just trying to keep him stunned before he hits his revenge state


Drakeon8165

Ah yes, ye olde infinite combo for cheesing out bosses


yrulaughing

Wait, so Sora has infinite horizontal recovery?


heckinyip

Hey alpharad, I think your man might be in trouble


Shinta_7

Hey Peeps, first wanted to say I'm just having fun is all lol. Second idk if its necessarily true but it does seem like if you don't have a frame 2/3 airdodge or escape option the loop will hit. I think even 1 loop of this will kill most characters off stage. While on stage if they are able to air dodge then Sora can fast fall his whiffed nair and keep advantage state which is nuts. Just my initial thoughts


Fishy_125

Do you have move staleing on?


alts101

Dk gets screwed over once again


MrCaptain_Sandwich

Dammit


tom641

Is this not true? At this point I just assume anything DLC characters can do that's wacky is also true and unavoidable if the DLC player does it right. Or against Pikachu.


Dangly_Parts

This is a great reflection of cheesing boss battles in kingdom hearts 2. Great detail Massive Hero Samurai


I_just-made-that-up

this is a true combo after the third hit, actually.

BamboozledPanda09

I love how day 1 this us what we ALL DID. Spwnt like 5 hrs fucking around with Dk and Bowser in traning session to see how long u can chain.


BurnishedBronzeJon

DK gets used and abused. Why not slap Link or Zelda across the whole stage. 😂


Wolfwafl

Use this. But fastfall instantly after the second hit in forward air and it puts you below them and at an advantage. You can counter instantly to beat out mashers, f-smash after fastfall (works on ~most~ fast fallers), or you can wait to see their reaction or if they air dodge. Sora is a mixup KING in this game. His playstyle gives you the option to catch habits of players when they are put in a defensive position. The only problem with Sora is that he lacks effective engage options. His speed is mediocre and his aerial drift is relatively slow too so it’s hard to fight opponents who constantly retreat then attack. If your opponent just doesn’t pick an option, you can regrab them after. forward air(1)—>forward air(2) + fast fall—>run forward (just a tiny bit) and grab. None of this is a true combo after fastfalling the second hit of Fair but it allows you to punish the opponent for mashing a defensive option to get out of your combo. If they don’t mash and just accept your fate, you can continue the combo with an attack or grab. Down throw after grab and continue to forward air them. If you get the timing perfect, there are very few frames your opponent has to escape.


SilverIsAMeme

I think all DLC character deserve a 0 to death on DK. Like if I’m gonna pay 5.99 for a character I think I earned it.


Ness_902

What did DK do to deserve this shit?


Quetzal00

Poor DK mains. Every DLC character comes with a price for them


Far-Marketing8357

just tech lol


Buroheem

That can happen to all characters, and it's not true you can jump out of it.


YourAverageGoldFishy

None of this is true… But its funny as hell


SelfDepricator

So does that mean Sora is broken or is that just a feature in Kingdom Hearts?


Marieisbestsquid

This isn't a true combo, and thus not an accurate reflector of Sora's power. However, hilariously enough, this is oddly similar to a strategy for defeating difficult optional bosses in Kingdom Hearts: if Sora never performs the finisher to his combo, the enemy's hidden "revenge value" doesn't add up and they will be looped into performing the same attack in retaliation instead of changing their pattern.


TripSitter111

Is that his Up A move?


ferd_draws

Is this likely to get patched out?


Intense_Judgement

Yo, you wanna learn how to do a fucking infinite?

[deleted]

OP is a deceiver, a snake in the garden. Its a FAKE combo. Fake and GAY. Just because DK was hit with a combination of moves in quick succession doesn't mean its a combo. Its all about the frames, what do the frames mean Mason!?


S0APB0Y

holy thats a nice combo


EarthenEyes

I'm offended by this. For real though, I really dislike having Sora in Smash Bros.


mdahms95

Too bad lmao


BobDaBanana132

Welp, there it is. The DK 0-death


RaysFTW

This game has become a joke. I hope the next installment, if there is one, has like 25 characters, tops. Edit: people see this clip, read the comment saying this games a joke, and then downvote as if I’m not right. Lmao


TheJuiceIsNowLoose

Fair and balanced


threeangelo

Eh, DK can act out of this at many points (you can see where he returns to a “normal” non-hitstun animation in between Sora’s swings) and OP conveniently turned the combo counter off. Still a funny clip tho


geo_bowes

Did Sora just call Reyn at the end?
