I have seen some confusion, so I would like a minute to clarify how this video correlates with the channel ending. It is not our final video being posted, we still have several that have been animated and are close to being able to be posted. That said, it is likely our last video with an analysis, so it IS the last Smash Bracket video as you know it, unless something changes.
I hope you all enjoy this video and those to come until we have posted our backlog!
_
I also want to give a massive shout-out to Tretoonzz on our team, who edited this video, animated in it, and all together helped everything come together. This would not have been possible without their help.

Death Battle already proved its likely Mario. Even with the buffs Sonic got thanks to Frontiers, it also showed that Super Sonic has limits to how “invincible” Super Sonic is. And Mario can probably pierce it as well.
@@EthanEtongue
What the hell are you talking about? They used feats from games and all closely tied media for both of them. If you’re upset because they didn’t use Archie comics or Paper Mario, it’s because those are too drastically different to be considered the same character.
@@rodrickgoldberg2324 Death Battle usually shits on Sonic
Aw man none of the others will have an analysis that’s a bummer I especially wanted to one for mega man vs mario 2
I'm sorry, but what's the point of the series without the analysis?
Moreover, while other series have done analyses as well, they often come to different conclusions due to differing methodologies or just interpretations. And then there's the fact that the character(s) I've really been waiting for have _never_ appeared on any other similar channel, and I'm really interested in seeing how she/they would be described in a format like this. The fact that the bracket was established ahead of time means I could be confident that they/she would eventually show up, but now that's being called into question.
Edit: Ok, I looked at the already completed animations. Guess I won't be seeing them in a crossover comparison after all, with _or_ without analysis. Not even my _second_ most anticipated fight made the cut. Guess that's what I get for being a fan of a more niche series.

It was an honor to Edit the final Analysis for Smash Bracket. I poured my heart and soul into it, making sure it was fun, engaging, and informative. I haven’t done a massive edit like this before, so it was awesome to have Bracket give me the opportunity! I hope you enjoyed the gags, information, and animated InkThinks!
You did a great job!
Seeing Simon's alternate forms while he's getting smacked by Luigi's hammer was too funny.
You rose to the challenge and then some!
This is it boys. It’s been a fun ride y’all
;(
It truly has
I don't understand what's going on...
So basically ink can’t do anymore videos because he is suffering from bipolar 😢
What a ride it has been. And a great one to celebrate out with.
Man its a shame, these videos are the most enjoyable vs animated battle series. ESPECIALLY the music. RIP smash bracket
13:16 Was not expecting Luigi to be voiced like this. A pleasant surprise.
I like how he seems to still be nervous, but in more of a confused 'Can we please stop now?' kind of way, rather than straight up terrified.
Yeah, especially since he destroyed all the ghosts that he was scared of. I guess it's because he realized that Simon wasn't a threat to him.
Especially when he just straight up sucked up his ghost, acting like it was a mistake.
I wish we could enjoy this episode under different circumstances😢.
Luigi should take this btw.
Honestly this probably has the best analysis, it has funny jokes and neat editing stuff and it’s entertaining and even the neat little animation. The analysis’ went out with a bang!
Thank you so much!!!
I really appreciate that! I had a lot of fun with it and I really wanted to make it the best Analysis it could be!
He only wanted to go home
Nice to Luigi getting a W's and shows how a nice brother he's along with mario.
No matter what happens, we love you, Ink. Please take good care of yourself.
Maybe the real strongest in smash was the friends we made along the way
I love the rainbow Luigi music. Thank you InK
Happy Halloween Smash Bracket! 🎃
The analysis section is interesting, because it seems like a massive flip from the original analyses that specifically ignored some of Mario's feats that gave Luigi this easy win. I guess Mario and Luigi are just impossible characters to pin down, and someone is going to get mad no matter what power level you put them on. They're just so inconsistent depending on the game, so you can make the argument for whatever power level you want. For better or worse, you definitely changed your philosophy behind researching these characters as the series moved on.
That said, sad to see this channel is ending. I really enjoy the idea behind it and I've had a fun time watching all of these episodes!
Me before watching: luigi is screwed
Me before after the luigi section: Simon is screwed
I am just now realizing, that this is the last time I will ever hear Ink say, "AND THERE YOU GO!" at the end of every episode.
Shit. It's hard to come to the conclusion that this series that means everything to me is ending.
It feels like it just started.
Part of me wishes that someone else could fill Ink's shoes and continue this fantastical series that his creativity has spawned into existence, but I don't think that could happen feasibly, due to monetary reasons, and mountains of other issues. Something tells me Patron isn't capable of propelling this on its own. This reminds me of how much Ink has done, how hard he has worked, and how many people he has supported through his sheer passion... and, likely empty wallet. Selfless.
I'm so very glad that he is on his journey to self-healing.
My only real regret is not being able to work with the team. It was my dream to contribute in that way someday.
Maybe someday, years from now, someone will be in the position to take up the mantle. It's a fool's dream, of course. Still clinging to SmashBracket subconsciously. I'm certainly in denial.
I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say but, I guess what I really mean, is thank you for inspiring me. It's been a hell of a ride- and there you go, I'm crying again.
Damn they hit us with "Smash Bracket is ending" into immediately posting one of the best voice acted and animated Smash Bracket episodes to date. I really hope Smash Bracket gets revamped or ends up just being a wait and downtime rather than a true "end" in the long run, but in the end it's all about the creator's wellbeing. Hope everything goes well for the whole team moving forward.
Me too man me too
Seeing Ink having so much fun with the analysis sections gives me life. The animation is also amazing. The Mony Python bit, Luigi holding plates menacingly, the feasting, the Captain N Simon cameo, smug Luigi. It was beautiful.
“I just want to go home” has got to be the hardest victory line🔥💯🔥
I cannot thank you enough mr bracket,you have rivaled death battle in quality and then some. I know that you have a great life ahead of you. I wish I couldn't say goodbye,but you have done enough.
Thank you.
Tbh ink this entire fight was just a STANDING HERE I REALLIIZE moment
Accurate! 😂
I love how much of a stomp this was. Especially since most of the time luigi was just confused and wanted to go home, he wasn’t even trying to hurt Simon (end of battle).
Heck, the post fight analysis stated it clearly, the moment luigi goes on the offensive it’s over.
This video is 90% "Have at thee"
Btw i hope you recover, we're all counting on you!
Sadness over this being the last Smash Bracket episode aside; I absolutely love how Luigi just doesn’t give a shit over Simon’s speeches and just wants to go home
This was a matchup I was hyped for ever since all the matchups were announced and it did not disappoint. As the last traditional Smash Bracket episode it was really great, thank you Ink and the whole Smash Bracket team for cranking out one last banger for us all to enjoy.
thats exactly why spongebob is the strongest nicktoon despite stuff like danny phantom, fairly odd parents, and avatar
Ok, the start of the end of the channel...here we go-
I love it that Luigi beat Simon so hard that he reverted back to his NES and Captain N designs.
15:18 I GOT AN AD THE SECOND THIS PART STARTED LMAO
Luigi definitely went on to talk some sense into Simon, before giving him a 1-UP
Thanks for the deliciously goofy Halloween treat, guys. My favorite gags were Simon literally getting smashed back to the NES era and Luigi complaining about just wanting to go home.
This has been a fun ride. It’s awesome to see one Mario brother taking the W. I’m just hoping the other will join with them in the end of smash bracket
Thanks a lot for giving us really good animations to watch and debate about… we’re gonna miss you a lot..
What a Halloween special this will be. And an awesome end to an awesome series. Luigi FTW.
Hahaha Capt N reference. love it XD 13:21
Last full video. Lets make it special!
that Monty Python reference is still GOLD XD, and the sudden frame flash to the other simon XD. Stay awesome and God Bless
I'm going to miss this series when it's over. We may not get every Smash character in an animated fight, but I am so grateful for what we got.
This was a nice battle to watch and Happy Halloween Smash Bracket
I know this is going to be a good fight, can't wait to see if Simon completes his "quest" or if luigi will only see victory in his "dreams".
okay, now that the usual joke is done, I just wanted to say to say to the smash bracket team, thank you for all the fun this series was and will be until the end, this series got me excited for versus was a growing fanbase that was really fun to interact with, even got me back into death battle funnily enough. It was a really fun time watching and interacting with these episodes and the other stuff you did, whether the discord, the reddit, or even these jokes I do, so I thank you for all the fun up until I make my final joke for one of these episodes and wish you all well.
What a way to go out. I'm going to miss smash bracket. But for now. LUIGI FTW
I hope Luigi wins this, plus he has far more experience than Simon
Facts because Luigi has too much power and that's a good thing
I never expected this to be the end. Appreciate what we gonna have people.
The one piece of gear that I think Luigi could’ve near-instantly won with is the Iron Ball and Iron Ball DX hammers. When hitting an opponent with them, there’s a small chance a _solid iron sphere drops from the sky directly on their head._ I get Simon’s tough, but I hope his skull is thick.
Was not expecting captain N Simon to make an appearance but still enjoyed it
14:31
Luigi: "You leave me no choice..."
15:00
Luigi: "Oh shit, I didn't mean to do that O.O"
I just realized I'm in the credits! Thank you Ink! This was such a fun episode to watch!
Yeah I'm pretty sure Luigi is going to win this fight. I don't think Simon Belmont has fought anything like the weird shit Luigi deals with on a daily basis.
Also it doesn't help that all of Simon's weapons are for killing monsters, and somehow despite everything that Luigi has done in the games he's 100% human.
True because luigi has too much power.
And that's a good thing
Like his brother Mario, Luigi can use power ups too
Yeah, all the mario characters are just looney tunes with deity-like powers
bro ritcher and Simon really look like real clowns in their fights I was just feeling sad for them at that point
This series is so fricken good, I love it so much. I still really hope that some dedicated fans or some trustworthy people can maybe contribute and perhaps take the series over, if everyone on the team is okay with that of course. I can understand though if no one is comfortable with the series having new ownership, essentially.
If this ghastly spectacle is anything to go off by, the Hero Battle Royale as well as many other remaining goodies in the oven will all be quite the remarkable send-off in the making here! 👏🏽
Much thanks to Ink, Levitation, and many other talented *souls* for the fun ride all the way through and through! And Happy Halloween!!! 🎃👻💀
Loved the music on this one
I really liked the hand drawn sections for the analysis of this video, and that fight was just so entertaining to watch!
Thank you so much Ink! This has been so fun! I can't wait to see the Heroes duke it out, even if were sans your charming voice. I'm glad you're doing what's right. (And peak content as always)
If only this wasn't the end
if only.
Thank you Ink Tank. Your channel and your fights were awesome. I look forward to the final animations you post
Fantastic battle as always! And a killer soundtrack, loved the incorporation of Bloody Tears!
I'm expecting the character that has more media to work with to win the matchup because.... yeah that's pretty much how this goes. lmao
Thanks for the fun series guys
NO WAY YOU PUT THE MONTY PYTHON+HOLY GRAILRUNNING REFERENCE IN THIS LOLLLL
I recognized it instantly even if not many other people did.
Last thing simon heard before he died: "boop"
The superstar theme playing at 14:34 is so raw 😩
Whether the bracket comes back or not, take care of yourself :)
This and Gengar vs King Boo have been some of my favorite VS episodes ever. You and the team did an amazing job on this Ink.
You guys did NOT have to go that hard on the kill but you did, mad respect.
For a what may be the final analyzed episode, I think it's a good one. Here's to enjoying the rest of what's to come!
I love this episode because its literaly spongebob vs aquaman all over again. Where the losing character is serious and thinks the goofy character is evil while the winning one doesn't want to fight at all
Discovering your channel was a blast for me.
Its been a fun ride dude i will make sure to never forget your chanel, your dedication, and your videos.
See you on the other side
Well, it’s been fun watching this series, take care Ink
I've loved this channel, from its start, to this unfortunate end.
I adore this episode, the hand drawn segments in both the analysis and the fight, the jokes, the general theme.
This was a wonderful episode and I hope you continue in your quest past the channel.
Puns aside, I can't wait to see the final episodes and appreciate all you've done for us and understand you leaving for your health.
My favourite parts are the criticising dracula segment, the spriteswitch hammering and the surprisingly brutal kill.
Man. Whoever voiced Simon sounds like he had the time of his life.
Death: So you may be wondering why I'm back after Richter killed me a few weeks ago. Turns out that Simon dying here affected the timeline so that future Belmonts, like Richter, were never born. Therefore he wasn't around to kill me. Therefore I, Death, Arbiter of death, declare myself, Death, not dead. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to run a health and safety inspection of Dracula's Castle.
Hello sb, I'm really sorry that you have to leave this channel and I just wanted to say that thank you for the great versus that you have brought us, they really entertained me a lot, my favorite being the pikachu vs Pacman because it's literally the only versus where Pacman appears using his canonical abilities and I really appreciate that :)
I'm sad SB won't finish, this is better than DeathBattle to me because it has an actual story line
First VS show to truly be all connected. A unique and wonderful project.
Such to see you no longer doing and analysis. I really love your personality and how you go about it. I personally think yours are the best compated to others
I love the holy grail reference.
Next up is Hero battle royale: Luminary VS Solo VS Erdrick VS Eight!
What an amazing series, every episode has been extremely entertaining and you can just see the passion. Even though it wouldn’t be the same, I do hope someone makes a spiritual successor where this series leaves off. Even if nobody does tho, it’s been great. Thank you smash bracket!
Even though you’re gonna be gone
I’m so hype for these videos
That was easily one of the best episodes in the series which makes it all the more saddening that this is one of the last episodes. Such a bittersweet ending. But nevertheless, I’m just happy we were able to enjoy Smash Bracket while it lasted. Thank you so much for all your hard work, Smash Bracket team. And thank you so much for making the series happen, Ink
Thanks to all the animators for the hard work worth the wait 👏
Luigi cannot be defeated, he is one of the most powerful beings and must be feared!!! Long live Master Luigi!!! ❤
Lol I love Luigi just wanted to go home. But thank you Ink for everything. I'm glad you left covering all my Top 10 favorite characters in Smash. G&W, Ness, Wario, Olimar, R.O.B, Lucas, Ice Climbers, Lucario, Villager, and finally... ending it with ma boi Luigi (Yes I know these are kind of cringe characters to play).
I hope you take care of yourself in the future and we thank you for all the contributions you have done with analysis, humorous writing, and explanations.
Also the Hero Battle Royale I literally cannot wait. I hope Eight takes it home for that one.
Hey guys I just wanted to say I love your content it sucks knowing that you're not going to be making more this match bracket was awesome I wish I could see you I hope you all do more in the future
This was a good last traditional smash bracket video. Also Happy Halloween everyone!
The death just being Luigi giving him the 2 finger discount is hilarious😂
Bro Luigi probably could have just ran forward and still kill him he probably use two fingers to make simon feel better
@@gameuniverse5973Fair enough
At this point I’m still going to watch this video
Even if Luigi still loses (sadly)
Because I’m gonna miss Smash Bracket 💔
Ink. When I say this I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Thank you so much for the content over the years and much love you have given the fans
When the time arrives of you quitting TH-cam
You will be missed dearly 🙏
Amen.
Pov, Luigi did not lose.
Prediction: Luigi by Up B OR down taunt
this is the first time I have fully watched one of these videos and I absolutely loved it. im so sad this is ending
I’m really gonna miss this Chanel. So sad that we’ll never know who wins this tournament.
The captain N and the game master reference was 10/10
This has been an amazing fight, and i will miss smash bracket, i can only hope that one day it will return
Wow! This feels beyond perfect. I was just playing Luigi's Mansion for the GameCube and Super Castlevania 4 for the Super Nintendo. Now I found this video releasing on the same day. Halloween Coincidence?
Man what a good Halloween I go to school dress up as Luigi with my homemade Poltergust book bag and now I see Luigi beating the crap out of Simon this was a good Halloween. Thank you smash bracket for everything you have done.
They shoulda just talked as always lol
Luigi: „Why did you call me creature?“
Do Ganger vs Boo King got analyses?
Its been fun smash bracket, thanks for the good times!
Why isn't anybody talking about how Simon ate that chicken?
glad to see this. can’t wait for luigi vs ike
Shame we couldn’t go all the way. At the same time though, that’d take way too much dedication and Ink’s a dad.
You will be missed when this ends, Ink.
(P.S. I can hear the depression in his voice. Idk how, I happen to.)
Thanks for the video :)
And that’s why Luigi is my forever green plumber GOAT!!💚🍄
I LOVE the Wander Over Yonder reference
This battle came out goooooood
So when are you guys gonna do Luigi and Daisy?
One of my favorite series is ending :(
Luigi winning for me was a surprise
I am going to miss all the Analysis this series had. They were great.
