The journey of North America's first officially licensed Super Smash Bros. circuit has all led up to this. Introducing the Panda Cup Finale Dec 15-18, 2022 bit.ly/3SqIRyD
I think it's crazy that Little Z and Marss both chose Falcon as their second character, both with the gold skin and both matched a Joker, both with the same skin too
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the fact that DK fair not only beat out minecart, hitting Steve out of it without clanking, but also spiked Steve as well? 2:45
i feel like it'd be a better idea to give each panda 10 random characters which they have to spike/stage spike with (same rules as now, if you don't get a spike you can redo, but if you get one or more you have to go to another character) That way we would see more varied characters and Z wouldn't be handicapped cuz he needs to wait 15 hours between each match
I was thinking something similar (in terms of little z's issue), or if they each get 30 minutes of in game time (would be harder to track tho, ur way is definitely better)
@@TheGreatRubix if you are talking about side special, then nope. That's Falco. Fox hasn't got anything close other than drag-down fair, and that's really impractical 😅
These are so not fair for Australian players because of lack of online presence - maybe to level the playing field, you could do how many spikes you can get in a certain amount of matches instead of a time limit
it doesn't need to be fair and its not about the game itself, you just need enough content for your part, also little z is not as good as esam or marss, so its already unfair anyways
Imagine just having a normal day, doing chores, playing smash, forgetting to put your lan on, watching some Marss videos and then bumping into Marss on Elite Smash afterwards :’)
I'm always impressed by the amount of culture displayed in the Panda videos with the bgm selection. This time we started off with a Doctor Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine bgm. I love it
Interesting, this kind of challenge could definitely have some variants. Like maybe: How many kills can the Pandas get with using only special moves to do damage (no pummels, smashes, tilts, etc). Or maybe a Bingo card with different random achievements (like finding a spammer online, killing with a throw, etc) and whoever gets a whole column/row/diagonal first wins.
6:44 the jump art ended right before the second hit of the fsmash(literally only a few frames before), which could explain why it killed. but still, jump mode decreases damage, not knockback, so it likely would have killed anyway
I'd like to see some more variety in these matches in terms of characters used. Like restricting their mains and the top picks like Ganondorf, DK and Captain Falcon.
panda editors are slowly becoming more and more like the valve developer code comments in terms of unhinged, tired, and passive remarks and i am so here for it
Little Z more hype than marss?? Can we get a spike counter total for the opponents, would be funny to see if their totals beat the totals from all their opponents
Stage spikes should count for half a point and they lose a point when they get spiked. It would make donkey kongs op cargo throw less busted. Perhaps a number of matches over amount of time to make Australian internet less of an issue.
We need a Underdogs and Panda collab, we have got parts of people in each of their channels, like Coney on the Underdogs Podcast, or Hop on Panda Pictionary. However, it would be really awesome to do anything with them together, would make for some great contact, and Zack can connect the UDs and Panda together, and they can work something out. (Run on sentences, lmao)
The one thing that confuses me is how Esam called Charizard unspikable as they flareblitzed above ledge. Like, shielding that is a free spike, you can get a true Rool back air off of that and that shit's slow
Marss is too good at these so they asked him to throw and left Wadi out as punishment for his (failed)cheesy rule exploit in the last challenge video. xD
Need to do a set number of games/characters instead of a time limit. That way it's more fair to Little Z and players can focus on getting spikes instead of rushing. Also, prevents the "I'm getting f'd up, guess I'll just SD and try again" shenanigans.
Can you ask them to put a timer on screen while they are recording? Much like Esam, I don't know how much time each has left. Also can we get Vikki in the next one? She won the all star thing. Maybe she'd somehow win here.
I feel like the content creators, Coney, TK, Little Z, are generally a lot better at these silly challenges than pros are cause they’ve got far more experience going for stupid shit. Playing to win and playing for the camera are different skills entirely

🎉🎉
I think it's crazy that Little Z and Marss both chose Falcon as their second character, both with the gold skin and both matched a Joker, both with the same skin too
They are the same person
They had the same skin also don't forget about that
They also both blinked during the match 🥴😳😲🤓🥺🤓
@@vehementvirtuoso7889 they also both have a nose
They also both picked DK first match
Spikes with a twist. Negative points whenever they get spiked.
This is a great addition to the challenge - agrees
WITH A TWIST means Little Z would be especially prepped
This has been commented on every one of these videos and I don’t know why they haven’t don’t it yet lmao
Also, they should win the match else no spikes count
DOUBLES WITH A TWIST!!!???!
Marss being like “how dare you know what you’re doing” never gets old somehow.
The irony in Esam talking about Marss winning the whole time is just hilarious.
ESAM: Marss will probably win.
Marss: Gets less than half of the two winners.
Well half of 11 is 5.5
Less than half
Mainly because Marss decides to go for flash instead of doing the actual challenge
it doesn't feel like a victory until i win by myself
quote that
REMATCH
Racist
3:33 can we just acknowledge how marss and little z got the same matchup with the same skins at the same time
Can we just take a moment to acknowledge the fact that DK fair not only beat out minecart, hitting Steve out of it without clanking, but also spiked Steve as well? 2:45
DK wins the matchup confirmed
It’s overhead why would it clank
i feel like it'd be a better idea to give each panda 10 random characters which they have to spike/stage spike with (same rules as now, if you don't get a spike you can redo, but if you get one or more you have to go to another character)
That way we would see more varied characters and Z wouldn't be handicapped cuz he needs to wait 15 hours between each match
The question is, are characters without spikes like Fox just "banned" then or do you just have to fish for stagespikes?
@@JasonsHoerbuchstube Stage spikes. They gotta get creative if they get a character without a spike
@@JasonsHoerbuchstube Fox "has" a spike in , but it's really more of a gimmick than anything.
I was thinking something similar (in terms of little z's issue), or if they each get 30 minutes of in game time (would be harder to track tho, ur way is definitely better)
@@TheGreatRubix if you are talking about side special, then nope. That's Falco. Fox hasn't got anything close other than drag-down fair, and that's really impractical 😅
Like how Marss just gave up and created his own challenge half way through
These are so not fair for Australian players because of lack of online presence - maybe to level the playing field, you could do how many spikes you can get in a certain amount of matches instead of a time limit
it doesn't need to be fair and its not about the game itself, you just need enough content for your part, also little z is not as good as esam or marss, so its already unfair anyways
Or maybe just “time spent in games”
Like half an hour of game footage, but the time between games doesn’t matter
11:01 Dimitri'ed byleth dosen't let me sleep
My favourite thing about this is that the auto subtitles decided marss saying “tactical sd” was him saying “attack lesbians”
Imagine just having a normal day, doing chores, playing smash, forgetting to put your lan on, watching some Marss videos and then bumping into Marss on Elite Smash afterwards :’)
I'm always impressed by the amount of culture displayed in the Panda videos with the bgm selection. This time we started off with a Doctor Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine bgm. I love it
Did not know ESAM had that diddy Kong chest hair. 😳😂
I love this challenge solely for Count Marss
marss and z both got a joker, with all 4 skins being the same in their respective pairs. insane
Interesting, this kind of challenge could definitely have some variants. Like maybe: How many kills can the Pandas get with using only special moves to do damage (no pummels, smashes, tilts, etc).

10:42 the gnw tag 💀
Little z getting his shit rocked by a game and watch called get a job it priceless
I find it so funny that the time when Marss not only did not win, but also completely gave up on the challenge, no one else actually won
@1:50 😂 when they actually pass the skill check
Little Z when he destroys a Steve and the Steve pressed neutral B a single time
"When we banning steve"
5:57 CC says mars is using the power of "Attack lesbians" and im about it
I'd like to see some more variety in these matches in terms of characters used. Like restricting their mains and the top picks like Ganondorf, DK and Captain Falcon.
7:29
POV: You think you have a Messenger notification
I actually like this moment, were Mars was playing Byleth and in the final kill the lil cutscene comes wich is really nice.👍🏻
This series should start keeping score for the opponents getting spikes too.
Really enjoy seeing collab and challenge vids. But also most set break downs would be cool
ESAM: Marss always f*cking wins these
Everyone but Marss wins these
Okay but ESAM could’ve easily spiked that DK at 18:10 though
Idea for a twist:
Every time they get spiked their score goes down by one ☝️ 😈
@1:38
I never knew Steve could throw his lava off stage
It’s not his lava it’s his down tilt
it would be really funny if they ran into each other during a challenge like this
Can we appreciate how both Marss and Little Z played Gold Captain Falcon, and verse a white uniform Joker
"Tactical SD" getting subtitled as "Attack lesbians" sure was a trip.
Esam dressed like he got to record a stream at 5 and go to a roller disco at 6
panda editors are slowly becoming more and more like the valve developer code comments in terms of unhinged, tired, and passive remarks and i am so here for it
That last spike that ESAM got with Samus looked about as hot as he did in that BCRF Tank Top
5:50 lmaoo the subtitles. "Attack lesbians lesbians"
Esam: GGs Marss since you probably won
Marss: Clipping people because he quit the challenge
Little Z more hype than marss?? Can we get a spike counter total for the opponents, would be funny to see if their totals beat the totals from all their opponents
Stage spikes should count for half a point and they lose a point when they get spiked. It would make donkey kongs op cargo throw less busted. Perhaps a number of matches over amount of time to make Australian internet less of an issue.
Spike battle: total pandemonium edition - psychological torture special
My favorite part is when Marss baby raged and gave up on the challenge lol
How can ESAM be so bald and yet so hairy
Panda needs to invite Fatality to one of these videos so we can watch the real spike champ
Little z I love you but the reason you can't find any matches is because you blocked more than half of your country
"I'm FAHMING the spikes against little mek" ~Little Z
Marss at 5:57 : tactical sd
Subtitles: attack lesbians !
I've played against that omnilax person before. I don't know if it was smash 4 or ultimate but they were playing ganon.
Esam looks like he's getting ready to go to the blue oyster
I love the difference in enthusiasm between Marss and ESAM
Yall should do who can get the most zoom in ko's in one match ie falcon punch byleth down b, little mac punch etc
We need a Underdogs and Panda collab, we have got parts of people in each of their channels, like Coney on the Underdogs Podcast, or Hop on Panda Pictionary. However, it would be really awesome to do anything with them together, would make for some great contact, and Zack can connect the UDs and Panda together, and they can work something out.
(Run on sentences, lmao)
Hey panda you should have an extra ruleset on this where if you get the double dip / or footstool to spike it counts is two spikes
Impressive how much Shulk completely destroyed Marss' will to play
ESAM gets more flamboyant with every video he appears in.
Can someone tell me the ending song from guilty gear?
I think it’s so funny that marss just stopped doing the challenge in favor of “hot clips” 😂 very on brand
10:40 k rool grabs G&W up b??? Idc k rool got invincibility just the fact the grab worked baffles me
Little z be like “rippah starht”
Someone gotta make 16:58 an emote
The one thing that confuses me is how Esam called Charizard unspikable as they flareblitzed above ledge. Like, shielding that is a free spike, you can get a true Rool back air off of that and that shit's slow
Esam literally malding
Marss is too good at these so they asked him to throw and left Wadi out as punishment for his (failed)cheesy rule exploit in the last challenge video. xD
I got an Inkling spike one time. It was really satisfying.
Little Mac spike kills should be worth double and I am surprised there was no Gordo stick to up b kills. Surprisingly easy against some characters.
Can we do a 1 v 1 tie breaker rematch between Z and Esam???
Esam has more hair on his chest than on his head
Need to do a set number of games/characters instead of a time limit. That way it's more fair to Little Z and players can focus on getting spikes instead of rushing. Also, prevents the "I'm getting f'd up, guess I'll just SD and try again" shenanigans.
closed captions at 5:57 thinks marss is saying "attack lesbians" uh oh
5:58 Caption
Can you ask them to put a timer on screen while they are recording? Much like Esam, I don't know how much time each has left. Also can we get Vikki in the next one? She won the all star thing. Maybe she'd somehow win here.
Wait a sec, is that a wedding band on LittleZ's finger ??
Do this challenge again but with only suicide kills, I feel like that would be really fun to watch
nice spiking challenge. this is fun.
At least wadi would have went for spikes the whole time not “hot clips”
Mars is just... so unlikeable.
Someone really likes Chipp lol
I feel like esam just went more and more feral as things went worse and worse for him
Nice
The captions at 5:56 tho
Yoooooo more spike challenges
shout-out to the editor for using Puyo Puyo music.
stage spike should be like 0.5 points instead of 1
If Mars doesn't win, nobody does lmao
I feel like the content creators, Coney, TK, Little Z, are generally a lot better at these silly challenges than pros are cause they’ve got far more experience going for stupid shit. Playing to win and playing for the camera are different skills entirely
Pandas having audio struggles, name a better couple
Next time if their opponent spikes the panda player they should be subtracted 2 from their overall score.
ROAR OF THE SPARK
should implement a rule that if a player is spiked they lose a point
every player not being sure of the rules needs to be a thing again
Why aren't these done by in game time? 1 hr of in game battle time?
No way esam thinks that ness pk thunder is broken! That move is trashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
ESAM at the end...
They should have a tally for all the opponents spikes
WTF,why did marss pick fox at the end?
