All they need is to nerf bowser jr and add an actual ranked system rather than the current "the more time you play the better your rank is" tournament rankings
I think they should subtract your points if you lose matches, since, speaking as the top spot, all you “need” to do to get on the leaderboard is play a ton. Skill helps with getting more points in championship matches, but I got here because I put in so many hours
yea exactly, like not to discredit the people at the top, but that's exactly how it works. and that doesn't make for a ranked experience. like its no fun just stomping people until the final tourney game for one, like i'd like to play people at my level consistently and get a ranking based off of that.
Core gameplay is worth the money and time, but other than that it's a shame the whole game seems so bare. Music, adventure mode, menu settings feel rushed and lackluster. Still recommended tho.
Needs a real ranking system for that lol. Right now its more or less based on playtime. Most top players in leaderboards are either Waluigi or Bowser Jr. because of how OP they are as well.
As an active tennis player whos played for over 10 years... this game is werid lol. Bowsers over there hitting some crazy shots I need to try doing myself haha. Good set though seemed like loads of mind games going on between you two.
This video made me realise how much streamers rely on the phrase "let's go" to indicate both celebration and determination... literally everyone says it, but none more frequently than this guy
All US Americans say that in any competitive environment. Watch any US sport and see how frequent the 'let's go!!!!' phrase is used. It's mind-numbingly common.
Commendable feat, ZeRo. Certainly a testament to your skill. Also a testament to just how busted the Defense characters are, despite Bowser having a good matchup against them.
I suggest you try to catch him on one of his streams. He usually streams from 4:00 EST to 11:00 EST most days, starting earlier or ending later depending on the day. That's where he's most likely to respond to you.
Every time he dropped a shot, he was taking net. So many times that a lob IMMEDIATELY after his drop would have taken him. I love watching these replays to see how people play. GREAT video.
Waluigi after he stopped crying over the fact that he wasn’t in Smash Ultimate “Wah! Whatever! Waluigi will go DESTROY everyone in Mario Tennis Aces instead! WAHHHAAHAHA!” *Reaches racket all the way across the court
Tails Merchandise you mean the game with super vivid colors, turtle dragons, walking mushrooms, flashy animations and a commentator that says fuck and aww damn it every five seconds? I was pretty surprised myself
actually imo regular mode requires more hardwork/research to get good at while simple as it implies is simpler both mode work in a very similar way but different in scale for an example if you get the advantage in regular mode you get to build meter and get to dictate the ball and in simple mode you scratch the meter and get down to just the basic ball control so you can get punished harder in regular mode there is also more ways to get the advantage back from the enemies vice versa (and also more ways to mess up) EDIT: also by no means I'm saying simple mode is for people that can't get into regular mode or whatever you are thinking, both modes require skills and are equally difficult because in the end you are not playing against the game rather against your opponent hence the reason I wrote "hardwork/research" instead of skill or whatever all this should be taken lightly since its still early in the meta and I'm just putting out my oppinion
HeroLeauges, I don't know if you know the meta of the standard mode, but it simply requires to play bowser jr. and spam that backwards trick shot (which automatically aims for the ball in most cases), or if the ball is far from you horizontally, you use the horizontal trick shot, to build meter. This creates basically a situation were you spam the backward trick shot, and sometimes (which is a 50/50) you do a horizontal trick shot. This allows you to build the special meter. Then you just use a zone shot/special shot depending on the enemy meter. After that you repeat
bebbothegreat You can't just "spam trick shots" lol if you trick shot after you see where the ball is going you LOSE meter, the only way to do a successful trick shot and gain meter is by inputting the direction BEFORE they hit the ball at you, so you have to predict correctly or you lose the point, it's a high risk high reward strategy
I have never been this excited by a tennis match. Swear you're like Goku, "Oh, he's strong?! Let's GO!" Lol That left back corner to right back corner combo seems to be the bread and butter combo for this game.
As someone who plays real tennis, Zero sounds like a real tennis player with all his "let's go!", all that's left is the grunting when he hits the ball.
5:43 for example was a dropshot point. You probably don't notice most of the drops because the white trail and slow movement make it look a bit like a regular weak shot.
I'll be honest, this brings me back to Mario Power Tennis... That was the best game because of how it's controls worked and such, and this is literally a mode that nods to Power Tennis.
Some Strategy Ideas: If you go to the net after lobbing over him you can do a drop-shot or slice ball short to make them run back to the net. When they try hitting it, it'll more than likely set you up to put away the next shot. Also, hitting the ball cross court where the net is LOWER is a safer option than always hitting down the line. If you want to do a Chip-n-Charge strategy, you serve big, run up to the net, read their receive, then you CHIP the ball (meaning you drop shot or slice the 3rd ball) either deep into the baseline area or close to the net, and then play the point out as usual.
Im not sure what makes me smile more, Waluigi's happy sounds he makes EVERY HIT or how excited ZeRo gets when he makes a good play Edit: yea it was definitely ZeRo's reaction
That was a great game! I still think you should've utilized the drop shot a little more when he was scared of the lob or had just returned a lob and was positioned so far from the net. It's deadly, especially for Bowser, who's so slow. Waluigi is the best in simple mode for sure.
ACTUALLY, SHMO21 IS NOW #1 IN GLOBAL RANKINGS BY QUITE A BIT LOL. SO NOT EVEN US, BUT THE WORLD. UPDATED TITLE.
Correction: YOU are now #1. Congratulations man!
Well u still beat so u R better!
ZeRo he’s REALLY good
You r a fking god
By jove! That last shot! That was a tennis, by jove!
Shmo21: "ZeRo? Am I supposed to know this guy?"
Well, he did comment on this video so yeah
Squidoodle lol
dankey kang r/wooosh
Smo21: “ZeRo? Am I supposed to know this guy?”
ZeRo: “Smo21? Am I supposed to know this guy?”
(At the same time)
Squidoodle Lamo
When’s our rematch? 😁
SOON BRO
ZeRo awesome! I look forward to it!
I really want to see this lol
This better happen
Insane play from both of you!!!! This game was tense af
All they need is to nerf bowser jr and add an actual ranked system rather than the current "the more time you play the better your rank is" tournament rankings
RedRiot i agri

I’m kinda mad, I’m a jr fan myself, but he’s disgusting in this game man.
bowsershmo21 holy shit it’s the man himself. You and ZeRo should do this on comms!
And that's how ZeRo, once and for all, left his career in Smash to be the top Mario Tennis player of the world. 😂
Vesmir NG-3 then he'll find new sponsors
At least Waluigi is a playable character in this game :P
Diogo Ribeiro Wait until Ultimate comes out ^^
TheMasked Froakie They gave us Daisy not Waluigi, Sakurai made him an assist trophy again.
Dominic Hughes my theory is that he is trolling us and he is going to either put him at launch or he is going to be dlc
The sound design for hitting the ball in this game is 👌👌👌👌
Josep Prats Its so good with the rumble as well.
R U M B L E
This whole game is amazing. I’ve only got to play the tournament demo and I’m soooo ready to get my hands on it.
Saben Campbell that’s underrated I love the rumble in the joy cons
Core gameplay is worth the money and time, but other than that it's a shame the whole game seems so bare. Music, adventure mode, menu settings feel rushed and lackluster. Still recommended tho.
ZeRo is the perfect echo fighter for Sakurai, in Smash5
I was thinking more of wario XD
Eric Estrada he actually is? Did not know that haha
I figured wario because of zero‘s trollish behavior on for glory
Unstoppable Force vs. Immovable Object
Unstoppable force won I guess
Prince Cookie I thought ZeRo was the Immovable Object
Guardian Ash lol that was a good one, I was thinking he meant the characters they played
They went right through eachother
I don't know shit about tennis, but boy this is hype
Tails Fx
Mario Tennis Aces is one of the most hype games ever created
Tails Fx Mario tennis has always been fun
I don't know shit about Sonic
But boy, you might be a furry
I Shanked Your Nan I am. That, and a lot of other things.
I've never played this game before, but this is still intense as hell
Khang and this is only the simple rules. Matches with zone shots and all the other extra stuff are even more intense lol
Khang
This is tennis cranked up to 1000
Khang competitive wii tenis
*lip smack* Noice
It's been like that since the gamecube days of mario power tennis. Mario tennis always intense.
This is entrancing to watch.
Cactoos Tennis can be very mezmerizing to watch indeed.
Never thought id even have an interest
I love waluigis “WAH” every single time he touches the ball
Or when his taunt his him saying “CHEATER”
SAVAGE, "Like am I supposed to know him?"
Miguel Monarrez
My exact reaction too that
To be fair the game just came out. I didn't even know there were best regional players yet.
A
Yeah that's fair
Jake paulers when someones asking a question
@@butterhawk789 Then you must think that the "Rankings" button was only here for decoration 😑
ZeRo felt the ball there 🤣 14:30
ChaosNew hahahahhaha
Lmao
Why do I find that so funny
IAMO!
Lol zerotwitch
more rewarding than winning evo tbh
I honestly hope this game can be a successful esport. Very entertaining to watch
Needs a real ranking system for that lol. Right now its more or less based on playtime. Most top players in leaderboards are either Waluigi or Bowser Jr. because of how OP they are as well.
It won't. Trust me.
Lol never
main counter-argument: in locals, both players cant choose the same character
Rip :(
Genuinly enjoyed playing this game too
It's all fun and games until someone picks Bowser Jr.
I think that's why they are playing Simple mode
A gamer vs a guy who might actually know how to play tennis
Andrei Francisco I’ve been playing mario tennis 64 since I was about 5, always been one of my favorite series!
Lol
bowsershmo21 nice, and real tennis? You actually seem to have a pretty nice strategy similar to what a pro tennis player would have
Mario Tennis 64 is my favorite
bowsershmo21 which one is your favorite that isn't Aces?
What's the number ONE in the world got against ZeRo?
0>1
he is the number one in global Right now ,he got there.
As an active tennis player whos played for over 10 years... this game is werid lol. Bowsers over there hitting some crazy shots I need to try doing myself haha. Good set though seemed like loads of mind games going on between you two.
Celtic Wind obviously playing tennis had absolutely nothing with success in this game
yeah I didnt say it did, Im just saying its interesting comparing real tennis to the games oddball physics.
I get you, although I dont recommend the bowser spinning shot where he does like a full turn lol
Well Bowser isn't human and he has a ton of strength.
Do pros even attempt doing a spin and hitting the ball?
Top 10 greatest anime comebacks.
This could actually be pretty hype as an ESport
I know nothing about tennis, but this shit is super exciting
This video made me realise how much streamers rely on the phrase "let's go" to indicate both celebration and determination... literally everyone says it, but none more frequently than this guy
All US Americans say that in any competitive environment. Watch any US sport and see how frequent the 'let's go!!!!' phrase is used. It's mind-numbingly common.
Never thought that a match between a turtle and a plumber would be the most intense match of tennis I'd ever see in my life
Commendable feat, ZeRo. Certainly a testament to your skill. Also a testament to just how busted the Defense characters are, despite Bowser having a good matchup against them.
What happened to Smash? I don't remember Bowser being Number 1 on the tier list. And when did they add Waluigi?
W A L U I G I D L C
This is tennis (:
WWOOOOOSSSHH
XxMr23 AnOnYxX you call me?
Wait, was...was that a heartbeat playing at tense moments of the game? WHOA.
ZeRo representing my boy Waluigi!
WAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
Why wouldn’t he being he’s one of the OP characters?
Mah boi*
Everybody's here
This is such a fun game to watch
Zero did u try to contact the dude after the game xD?
PrimeFighter he left a comment on the video
yeah but that doesn't answer if he got a DM or an after game chat :v
I’ve been trying to contact him, but haven’t gotten anything yet
I suggest you try to catch him on one of his streams. He usually streams from 4:00 EST to 11:00 EST most days, starting earlier or ending later depending on the day. That's where he's most likely to respond to you.
ecks dee?
You know it's a good ass, challenging match when it's 20 minutes long...
Wow gr8 i went up against this guy and only managed to get one point lol
OfficialErekt I seriously doubt shmo thought he would even get a point against him.
Every time he dropped a shot, he was taking net. So many times that a lob IMMEDIATELY after his drop would have taken him. I love watching these replays to see how people play. GREAT video.
Play m2k
Waluigi after he stopped crying over the fact that he wasn’t in Smash Ultimate
“Wah! Whatever! Waluigi will go DESTROY everyone in Mario Tennis Aces instead! WAHHHAAHAHA!”
*Reaches racket all the way across the court
Stolen
kinda ironic that Zero always trying to be number 1 in every Nintendo game
When a single rally is longer than the entire time I spent playing the game, I must be doing something wrong.
When you realise this is more fun to watch then actual tennis lol
Tails Merchandise you mean the game with super vivid colors, turtle dragons, walking mushrooms, flashy animations and a commentator that says fuck and aww damn it every five seconds? I was pretty surprised myself
I was pretty damn surprised just how invested I got in this match. Super tense tennis action.
No, it isn't. But it's still great!
"Dude I wanna cry dude, that was hard as f*** dude" 17:00
ZeRo goes up close to the net
Shmo punishes with lob and scores
ZeRo goes up to net again
Me: ????
What a great moment when Zero gets hyped after chat tells him who Shmo is....ahhh I fucking love Zero. Such a great, entertaining personality.
Mario Tennis Aces at Evo?
DUDE HYPE AF. This actually shows how hype this game can be even in simple mode!! Hype!
IM BUYING THIS GAME NOW!!!
That was hype. I beat him 2 days ago in a Bowser ditto. Match took like 20 minutes lol.
At least it looks like simple mode actually requires skill to play
bebbothegreat yeah right? I hate the regular mode with the zone shots all over the place it’s down to who’s got meter, not mind games and all that
actually imo regular mode requires more hardwork/research to get good at while simple as it implies is simpler both mode work in a very similar way but different in scale
for an example if you get the advantage in regular mode you get to build meter and get to dictate the ball and in simple mode you scratch the meter and get down to just the basic ball control so you can get punished harder in regular mode there is also more ways to get the advantage back from the enemies vice versa (and also more ways to mess up)

all this should be taken lightly since its still early in the meta and I'm just putting out my oppinion
I mean, this mode is really for the "No items, Final Destination only" players. It's not about skills.
HeroLeauges, I don't know if you know the meta of the standard mode, but it simply requires to play bowser jr. and spam that backwards trick shot (which automatically aims for the ball in most cases), or if the ball is far from you horizontally, you use the horizontal trick shot, to build meter.

Swear you're like Goku, "Oh, he's strong?! Let's GO!" Lol
That left back corner to right back corner combo seems to be the bread and butter combo for this game.
*Prince of Tennis OP plays*
As someone who plays real tennis, Zero sounds like a real tennis player with all his "let's go!", all that's left is the grunting when he hits the ball.
The #1 boi is a Bowser player. I'm so proud of the boi, he's done something great today lol.
This game is so hype, it's amazing. Congrats ZeRo.
That was hype
I just love your competitive, fiery spirit. Nice job on the win ZeRo, both of you were great
That was intense!
16:18
At that moment, the world lost it's final thread of hope that ZeRo would meet his match.
Simple Mode = Competitive?
is turnning off trick shots, meter, etc., the same as turning of items in Smash?
Late answer, but Standard Mode is ruined by Trickshots.
In terms of competitive, standard has the bigger scene. A comparison could be that kos are turned off in standard tournaments
10:12 I was thinking “And now he will try”, these matches kept me on edge and I’m not even playing
ZerRo studies to be Good at alot of his games. That why I admire him, I can see this being another smash for him 😏. Who agrees?
xXBomberXx xXManXx thought the same with pokken dx but nope
Please no
Walter Hopson
ZeRo is already top 100, lol
Rando: Zero he’s actually good at this. Zero: “Wake me up inside!”
This was legit stressful to watch.
I was rooting for you the whole time bro!!! I'm glad you won, GG!!!!!
You should not be able to swing your racket at a shot that's lobbed over you miss and then still have time to return it.
have you never done that in real tennis..?
I could feel the intebsity through the screen. Congrats ZeRo definitely play this guy again!
I'd love to see an *Evo tournament of this game* in the future. ✨😁
This is the happiest I've seen ZeRo for a while lol
Wait where does ZeRo want us to go?
Damn, bruh that was a intense match GGs. Can't wait to see more content of this game in your future videos.
will you play mortal combat if we sub to zero
that was actually insane, both of you are so evenly matched GG
This game is really fun and VERY tilting
ZeRo like 2 years later: "I'm retiring from mario tennis aces."
Z E R O MODE IS OD
the most hype thing I've ever watched on youtube, the god slayer doing what he does best!
ZERO MODE > NAIRO MODE
WOW, that was so hype! This game looks fantastic!
Is Simple Mode the most played mode???
Mr. Skull
No
No but it's the most enjoyable mode.
You're so good at this game dude. I love how you start slow but you close in on them just like in Smash lol.
Are drop shots not that good? I don't see many.
EDIT:nvm scmo started throwing em in
When you charge them and you're both not kissing the net
5:43 for example was a dropshot point. You probably don't notice most of the drops because the white trail and slow movement make it look a bit like a regular weak shot.
Congratulations ZeRo!
you beat a #1 player in simple mode in Mario tennis aces! GG!
zero your a god
One thing ZeRo is good at doing is adapting to his opponent. Excellent job dude.
I have large p p
proof?
Prove it or lose it
That’s nice
Same
Nice
I'll be honest, this brings me back to Mario Power Tennis... That was the best game because of how it's controls worked and such, and this is literally a mode that nods to Power Tennis.
This is one of the most satisfying videos I’ve ever watched
I love how ZeRo literally has more points on simple class than I do in regular and simple class combined. Long story short, I’m shit.
I encountered a 37k Bowser Jr. on the other mode and he destroyed me. This was a very entertaining fast paced match, good job Zero!
Some Strategy Ideas:
If you go to the net after lobbing over him you can do a drop-shot or slice ball short to make them run back to the net. When they try hitting it, it'll more than likely set you up to put away the next shot.
Also, hitting the ball cross court where the net is LOWER is a safer option than always hitting down the line.
If you want to do a Chip-n-Charge strategy, you serve big, run up to the net, read their receive, then you CHIP the ball (meaning you drop shot or slice the 3rd ball) either deep into the baseline area or close to the net, and then play the point out as usual.
Im not sure what makes me smile more, Waluigi's happy sounds he makes EVERY HIT or how excited ZeRo gets when he makes a good play
Edit: yea it was definitely ZeRo's reaction
This is like the new god of war where kratos rolls up to a new land and starts fucking up their gods.
That was a great game! I still think you should've utilized the drop shot a little more when he was scared of the lob or had just returned a lob and was positioned so far from the net. It's deadly, especially for Bowser, who's so slow. Waluigi is the best in simple mode for sure.
I did not think a game of tennis could so tense and hype.
Ok, you convinced me that this is actually a fun game. Damn that was intense.
Good game bro. That was a great match and keep up the success on your channel
Definitely one of the most intense things in gaming I have ever seen. This was so hype!
I hope people watch this and realize this is how watching real sports and playing can feel. Its awesome that video games can give the same feeling
I've never played super mario aces but this was super entertaining to watch , i can tell there is a lot of strategy in this game
Wow that was so exhilarating! Well done!
I can't wait to see this kind of content on your channel Zero. He be whaacking balls out of court.
yesterday I had two matches as tense as this one (although not as skilled as yours lol) and I can say it feels GOOD to have these kind of matches!
