keep in mind Bolganone was used against a mage, who usually have high res. I get where your coming from, but also keep in mind Ilyana may have had enough res to survive well against it
OrangeKyle91 Yeah, and he goes through a lot of classes between the two games. Ranger > Lord in PoR. But then in RD he's no longer a lord, and is instead a 'Hero' and promotes to 'Vanguard.'
Yeah, I know. But overall, the role he plays on the battlefield is the same as the role played by a Merc/Hero in the GBA games as well as FE: Awakening.
Actually your wrong ike's aether slashes twice first he throws the aether in the air and then grabs it and slashes it down and slashes it again in upper direction.
Ike's up-throw, dude. He sheaths his sword in the ground like his taunt, but this throw's even more like his sister's win animation, because he follows it up by punching his fist in the air exactly like how his sister does. Ike hits somebody with it, though.
Just to let everyone know, the item the Black Knight uses to teleport is called warp Powder. Even though that is very interesting, I never noticed Ike teleports in that game like the Black Knight does.
Well, that really depends. Get yourself a 'Rescue Staff', and you can give the same teleportation circle, but he's being teleported to the staff user (Likely Rhys or Mist).
Ike's games also had the Laguz using unarmed attacks, specifically punches and kicks when not transformed. Which is probably reasoning for the jab and kick in Ike's AAA combo (the only non sword based attacks Roy and Marth have is their grab attack since no one fights unarmed in their games).
I kinda wish Ike used his punches and kicks a bit more in Smash. It's bad-arse when a sword user is so strong and hardy that they don't even feel the need to use their sword all the time.
I always looked at it as association to the counter skill, at least in Ike's case. But the allusion to attacking during the enemy phase makes more sense so this is actually pretty awesome.
It's funny coming back to this video and remembering when I first made up my mind to play Ike's games. I'll never be able to relive that experience ever again. Thanks for making this vid.
One thing I noticed that you might have missed. When Ike does his final smash he releases a wave or energy that goes way beyond the length of his sword. I was thinking that might be a reference to how Ragnel could attack with a long ranged energy attack in PoR and RD
Tell that to Chrom, who's opening animation in a fight and ending animation after killing an enemy have him drawing his sword out of the ground and stabbing it into the ground respectively.
The Astra/Great Aether comparison seems like too much of a stretch to me, and some of these might be reading a bit much into Smash Bros and not giving the devs enough credit, but on the whole, this is a great analysis/comparison. Nice work.
@ZetaNiGHT I know I'm sooooooo late to this party, but . . . I slowed the video waaaaaaayyyyy down and counted each individual hit of Great Aether. If you count the "trap" hit (where he sends the opponent into the air) and the "finisher", there are exactly 15 hits to Great Aether. Astra being a 5 hit attack, multiplied by the number of skills incorporated into the attack (3) would give us 15. Possibly a stretch, but what are the odds that they just randomly decided on exactly 15 hits?
@@k-leb4671 oh man it's been forever since I've used this account lmao. I was talking about the number of skills rolled into great aether, which would logically still include sol and luna like normal aether
Eruption was simply ripped from Roy’s Flare Blade in Melee. The blue flames were referenced in Super Smash Bros WiiU/3DS since Radiant Dawn Ike appears
I think if anything its like the scene on Radiant Dawn where Micaiah gives Ike the goddess' power. He holds his sword up the same way, grunts, and glows from the energy he was given. It was featured in this video, just in a different context.
You forgot Ike's other taunt. I think it might come from the pose he takes in RD after Yune lends him her power in the final battle. Otherwise, awesome video. I love Ike.
The first six Fire Emblem Games were only released in Japan, but after SSBM the popularity of Fire Emblem was that big that they released the following games outside Japan too.
Ike’s voice is brawl was so much better. I don’t know why nintendo made 2 voice options in ultimate when they both sound so similar. They should have just added this option too.
Ahhh path of radiance loved that game, remembered the first time playing it on hard the moment ashnard started to move and fucked like ten of my units.
i have to give you props for this. i understood the moveset and its references, but the detail that was put into this video was extreme. it must have been tiresome producing this. good job. i didn't notice the taunts and their references. you do learn something new everyday.
Thanks for making the video, it really helped me to understand where it all came from, I've never played a fire emblem game, but I main Ike in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Very interesting.
dude when i clicked this video i thought it was going to be a lame video with barely THE BASICS of his fire ewmblem history... but it turned out one of the best made videos i´ve seen,you´ve gained my subscribcion(spanish guys dont speak english very well ftw!!)
I have a different theory on that whole Mia Critical thing. You know Ike's animation when he does a charged up attack with certain hold items? You know, the Beam Sword, Star Rod, etc? I think THAT is based off of that Critical, because Ike attacks once with the item and then slashes with Ragnell, in a motion similar to this.
Nope, the funniest support in POR is Rhys with Kieran. Rhys: I'm here in case you need a healer Kieran: I don't need any heal, I just have to get this axe out of my...oh...
Another thing I thought worth pointing out was that Quick Draw looks not just like his Ranger critical hit animation, but both his (Lord) and Greil's single strike animation. They both deal diagonal slashes from the lower left to the upper right.
I can only imagine some people who have ike at the head of thier spotpass party and get by soley on keeping him alive while he slowly tears down people with a brave sword and a powerful throwing axe. It's very easy to abuse that kind of power. It almost makes the versus challenges, spotpass or otherwise, pointless. I've heard about ike doing solo before I got into fire emblem, then I played awakening, which is awesome. Im more so determined on finding POR and RD after I finish Awak and Sac Sto.
The Aether in Brawl was taken from the Map Animation and regular animation of Aether. The slash up word, then from the regular animation he throws the sword and the downward slash. So technically it still is a two-hit attack.
fire emblem is a great series to play, if you are willing to put some time and effort into it. fire emblem, in my opinion, has two features that are unique to the series: the storyline and music. the gameplay is simple: eat or be eaten. (BTW you will become obsessed with one of your people dying). The OSTs are amazing and the storyline never gets old. best series i've played since zelda.
I used to play brawl with my brother we both mained the Fire emblem characters I Mained Marth and he mained Ike, Ik that Ike was a low tier in brawl but my little brother is and will always will be the best Ike player I have ever seen and he made Ike look like a top tier.
I wish the Black Knight was playable. He looks awesome. Just letting everyone know, I haven't had the chance to play any of the Fire Emblem games, but I think he would be cool to have.
I don't think they will. Ike is still widely popular in Japan as well as the US, and especially since he's mentioned quite a few times in Fire Emblem Awakening.
at the crit around 6:20 the reason it didnt kill the genral is because the dmg you were to do was 10 and 10*3 is 30 and the hp the genral had was 41 so it went down to elevan then you did a normal ten witch left the genrals hp to be left with 1
@SobmicSSBB: I have news about Ike's moves history, please read this: In the full intro video of Fire Emblem POR (1:25), one of Ike's counter attack against Greil has a striking resemble to Ike's smash attack in brawl. Also, based on what I read before on the internet, Great Aether is suppose to be a reference to Ike's final attack to Ashera in Fire Emblem RD. The only problem is, the flame surrounding Ike is blue in Fire Emblem, instead of Red as in Brawl. But anyway you had explained it.
The only move missing from Ike's arsenal is the fact that Ragnell can project an energy wave to attack from a range of 1-2, they should have given Ike a slow but kind of strong projectile to represent that. Also the most powerful fire spell is not bolganone, its rexflame, the spell was dummied out, you need a hack software to actually use it (FE 9, is found in FE 10 actually)
Ike makes up for his lack of speed with his attack power, sturdiness and attack range. If you hit him, he wont move. If he hits you, it'll hurt. You can throw people off guard by hitting them with your sword while they're out of range. His counter if perfect for power weapons or attacks like Falcon Punch or Homerun Bat and his lunge attack is perfect for staying in the fight longer than your opponent expects. WE LIKE IKE!
Just finished PoR and RD and came to see how valid this video is. A lot of these are stretches, lmao. I love how every other one is like "durr this MIGHT be a reference maybe sorta" accompanied by unnecessary super slow-mo and the rest are super obvious if you've played the games.
They'll probably give the option to switch Marth's design between the old style, Masked Marth and one other option that I won't give due to spoilers, and then switch Ike from Chrom.
Awesome video!! But you missed one little thing: The B down (Eruption) is taken directly from Roy in Smash Bros. melee. The proof is that Ragnell never had fire-based attacks, only wind? based. You can put this on an annotation For anything else, the video is just perfect! Good job!
There are three Lord archetypes established in the Fire Emblem series: light, medium, and heavy. A good example of all three is in Fire Emblem: Blazing Sword (Simply "Fire Emblem" outside of Japan). Lyn is a light Lord (high speed and skill, but low defense and HP), Eliwood is medium (relatively balanced stats), and Hector is heavy (high strength and defense, but low speed and skill). Marth actually falls into the light archetype.
oh okay, just that i dont think i ever heard of the Black Knight using powder to teleport, i always thought it was because the goddess granted him the blessed armor and sword, and thus he had some sort of magical prowess.
It's not that he's slow, it's the sheer wirght of Ragnell. Look up how heavy it is in hame. WAY heaver than the master sword link uses. In fact, when you get it early on, Ike tends to 1 hit enemies due to the speed loss from the weight.
Evan Quintana You'd be surprised how detailed an inspired many of the attacks are in the series. Pretty much every frame of Mr Game & Watch and Megaman comes from something. Marth has sword swipes distinctly similar to characters from the SNES Fire Emblem games. Ganondorf even has a forward aerial based on a scene from the Ocarina of Time manga! Clearly not every attack in the game can be based on something we've seen the character do before but a startling number of them really are.
I do agree that a magic unit would be pretty cool in Smash Bros. though. Soren is probably the most iconic FE mage to date, though with the Tellius series being long over, I think an Awakening unit is much more likely. I hope Fire Emblem is well represented in the next game with at least several cool units to use.
on his appearance to a brawl (meaning his intro to fight) i always though that it was sort of like a spell, you know that mages and bishops could use, such as Warp
maybe in terms of fighting in free for alls, or team matches. Believe me, I am addicted with playing ike in team matches online with random people and simply overpowering people while my partner is more or less the faster fighter or projectile user. Yet it can take some patience when fighting good players one on one as him
@@GMKGoji01 I just realized I made a mistake. I mixed up Ragnell and Aether. Ragnell can attack from close and far range (which is why it's baffling to me that Ike doesn't have a ranged attack in Smash). His special move Aether only works at close range.
@Fleonified In English grammar, "an" is used instead of "a" as an article when the following word starts with a consonant sound, not necessarily a consonant letter. This is why examples such as "an universe" do not work and are improper. @fishwizzy1 Words like "heir" require that the preceding indefinite article be "an" instead of "a". The word does not have to start with a vowel to abide to this rule. There are also no words starting with "Y" that have a vowel sound, so that is irrelevant.
Daaaaang this must have been hard to find out. Great job on this video and on all the other ones =). By the way, I am not 100% sure, but chances are Ike and possibly Marth won't be in the next SS. THey were in this one because they were in the most 3 recent games that have come out and they usually use them as advertisement. I dunno why they used Roy instead of Eliwood in melee, but he was probably there to advertise his game, although I dunno why Marth would be there...to look like Ike XD?
About that last section. (the four hits and finish combo) I think it looks like it would work more for his side B. (Which is, too say, a Four or so hit combo when timed correctly) Nice work, I was actually wondering how they got a Combat style from a Grid RPG character...
I am a big fan of Fire Emblem and a big fan of the Tellius games (FE:PoR and FE:RD), but I never made all these connects. Even if they all aren't right, it's still seems pretty spot on for the most part! Oh yeah, now that I think about it...in Smash bros Ike says, "You'll get sympathy from me", but he never says that in his game...everyone else does in some shape or form! :3
"It's one of the strongest spells in the game", deals 2 Damage. GG
nice
keep in mind Bolganone was used against a mage, who usually have high res. I get where your coming from, but also keep in mind Ilyana may have had enough res to survive well against it
Illyana had high Res.
Exactly
@@thedoorman6940 “May” not even May, she did have high AF res
There's a distinct lack of sympathy in here
3:00 It is now blue in ssb4, like it is supposed to be.
Exactly! And Great Motherfucking Aether is blue as well!
"It's also one of the strongest spells in the games it's in"
*proceeds to deal a measly 2 damage against Ilyana
Who is basically a magical TANK, so that's to be expected.
It's funny, though, that Ike's most precious move, Aether, is a common critical attack from basic Mercenary from previous games.
I think that's intentional because Ike is himself a mercenary, although his class goes by a different name.
OrangeKyle91 Yeah, and he goes through a lot of classes between the two games. Ranger > Lord in PoR. But then in RD he's no longer a lord, and is instead a 'Hero' and promotes to 'Vanguard.'
Yeah, I know. But overall, the role he plays on the battlefield is the same as the role played by a Merc/Hero in the GBA games as well as FE: Awakening.

If you can use something you know to an advantage, no matter how ridiculous you think it looks, it makes you an adaptive warrior.

+Raheem Plummer are you serious? that's the first thing i noticed
markasscop Arev Everyone's different.
Very late but it could possibly be Rewarp that is being used or just Warp in general
Ike's games also had the Laguz using unarmed attacks, specifically punches and kicks when not transformed. Which is probably reasoning for the jab and kick in Ike's AAA combo (the only non sword based attacks Roy and Marth have is their grab attack since no one fights unarmed in their games).

It's a pretty decent idea, really.
I kinda wish Ike used his punches and kicks a bit more in Smash. It's bad-arse when a sword user is so strong and hardy that they don't even feel the need to use their sword all the time.
That explains one of Ike's victory statement, "I Fight For My Friends"
I never thought Counter as an analogy on Fire Emblem counter attacks.
I always looked at it as association to the counter skill, at least in Ike's case. But the allusion to attacking during the enemy phase makes more sense so this is actually pretty awesome.
Now I can show this to people who think most Fire Emblem characters having Counter is lazy.
@@AH-ng7zt you cant read lol
Some of these were SERIOUS stretches.
It's funny coming back to this video and remembering when I first made up my mind to play Ike's games.

Hey, Astra or Star strike seems to have inspired Marth's sword dancing move more than Ike's Great Aether.
Undoubtedly. I'd say Great Aether is more based on Ike's RD critical animation mixed with his aether.
Ike's great aether he attacks in aerial by slashing punching and kicking
Nah
Dancing blade is actually a thing.
@KieraQ0323
Not before Fates it wasn’t

Well, the throwing Ragnell into the ground returns with the Vanguard in Fates. Probably not the best way to treat a legendary sword.
It can't break so why not do it
Rough and tough, like the one who wields it
Tell that to Chrom, who's opening animation in a fight and ending animation after killing an enemy have him drawing his sword out of the ground and stabbing it into the ground respectively.
I remember seeing this video before Smash 4 and being so happy they changed his flames to Blue in SSB4
I just realized what Ike's blue flame meant in Super smash bros U. Thank you! The new Super Smash Bros uses Blue flames for Ike instead of red ones.

It's my favourite Fire Emblem game in the series. In hard mode, Ashnard moves from turn 7 or 9 (unsure).
If you get in his range he'll move, this is one of my favorites too :) I was really excited to see him on smash, but no slash wave though :/
That's even worse. The only weapons that can hurt Ashnard are Ragnell, three of the beast commanders and Nasir/Ena
yeah, I used to lock him near the fountain surrounded by the 3, but pretty much only ike did damage cause op
Well yeah Ike can hurt him using Ragnell.

Nope, the funniest support in POR is Rhys with Kieran.
Rhys: I'm here in case you need a healer
Kieran: I don't need any heal, I just have to get this axe out of my...oh...

8:10 wo,wo,wo... 5 consecutive misses with 99 acc? Talk about rng god...

I would have to agree...
Ike didn't have Ragnell OR the Aether before his Lord promotion, yet he's dressed in his Ranger outfit in Brawl, by default.
In the fire emblem games, he IS the powerhouse, most of the times one of the strongest character, if not the strongest character.
heck, ike can solo maps in awakening as a dlc character. He pretty can pretty much break any fire emblem game given enough time
I can only imagine some people who have ike at the head of thier spotpass party and get by soley on keeping him alive while he slowly tears down people with a brave sword and a powerful throwing axe.

I think Ike's pose when taking the power of the flame is his third taunt, same posture and the look of energy around him.
It's not that he's slow, it's the sheer wirght of Ragnell. Look up how heavy it is in hame. WAY heaver than the master sword link uses. In fact, when you get it early on, Ike tends to 1 hit enemies due to the speed loss from the weight.
Counter seems more based off of the skill, though in the game, it returns part of the damage the enemy inflicts or in Awakening all of it.

cooooooooooooool
Well, that helped a lot :)
Now I know where Ike's moves were most likely based on. Now, to train more! :p
In path of radiance, I somehow got Ike to learn Astra, the 5-attack ability which all swordmasters could learn as an occult scroll.
Very interesting. Lots of them are obviously right and the speculated ones make a lot of sense. I didn't know some of those details either.

Believe me, I am addicted with playing ike in team matches online with random people and simply overpowering people while my partner is more or less the faster fighter or projectile user. Yet it can take some patience when fighting good players one on one as him
Volveré a ver este vídeo cuando tenga la oportunidad de jugar Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance para comparar los movimientos
In Fire Emblem Heroes, Ike's Ragnell allows him to counterattack regardless of range. Was it not the case in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn?
Ragnell would only trigger at close range in those games.
@@realbartsimpson …Huh. Guess I’ve played way too much FE Heroes.
Oh well.
@@GMKGoji01 I just realized I made a mistake. I mixed up Ragnell and Aether.
Ragnell can attack from close and far range (which is why it's baffling to me that Ike doesn't have a ranged attack in Smash).
His special move Aether only works at close range.
@@realbartsimpson …I knew that. Minus the Aether part.
@Fleonified In English grammar, "an" is used instead of "a" as an article when the following word starts with a consonant sound, not necessarily a consonant letter. This is why examples such as "an universe" do not work and are improper.
@fishwizzy1 Words like "heir" require that the preceding indefinite article be "an" instead of "a". The word does not have to start with a vowel to abide to this rule. There are also no words starting with "Y" that have a vowel sound, so that is irrelevant.
Instead of ranger outfit in Brawl, they should have put the Lord outfit. Ike would look awesome!
I feel like we have a pretty good chance of seeing Chrom in the 3DS version of the next Smash Bros.
not in ssb4 but hes in ultimate
Daaaaang this must have been hard to find out. Great job on this video and on all the other ones =).
By the way, I am not 100% sure, but chances are Ike and possibly Marth won't be in the next SS. THey were in this one because they were in the most 3 recent games that have come out and they usually use them as advertisement. I dunno why they used Roy instead of Eliwood in melee, but he was probably there to advertise his game, although I dunno why Marth would be there...to look like Ike XD?
Welp, they ended up bringing back Marth and Ike in every subsequent Smash game, so...yeah...
So great aether is exclusive to smash it seems.
No
should have striked a pose at the end with Ike, would have given me goosebumps :D
About that last section. (the four hits and finish combo) I think it looks like it would work more for his side B. (Which is, too say, a Four or so hit combo when timed correctly)
Nice work, I was actually wondering how they got a Combat style from a Grid RPG character...
Nice vid here. Its very enlightening.
I am a big fan of Fire Emblem and a big fan of the Tellius games (FE:PoR and FE:RD), but I never made all these connects. Even if they all aren't right, it's still seems pretty spot on for the most part! Oh yeah, now that I think about it...in Smash bros Ike says, "You'll get sympathy from me", but he never says that in his game...everyone else does in some shape or form! :3
he says you'll get no sympathy from me
