There's no feeling more helpless than getting destroyed by a plant. That character doesn't win much, but when it does it makes the opponent feel like an absolute NPC. I remember getting destroyed by a plant once and that game had me questioning whether or not my controller was still plugged in
You should check out his main, turndownforwalt, where he covers the sickest shit in smash, except in smash Melee rather than smash Ultimate. Some banger videos over there you should absolutely see, no matter what game you play
@@InstaFiz hey! Thanks for your honesty! I enjoyed it, and if it's not your thing, no worries! He is trying something new and this is part of the growing process. I'm sure constructive criticism is welcomed. Stick with it for a while and see if it grows in you. Yes I made several plant related puns 😉 🌱🍀🥀
I feel like it's for the best tho cuz spargo never uses it in actual offline brackets (not that I can remember or not consistently) so show casing two people who might not be known by many and showing how they advance a plant is a more entertaining video
Idk why/who started this trend but ppl love to emphasize the character being really bad when lowkey they're not half bad It's strength in moveset being a verticality based designed one is interesting especially in a game where most everyone is jump happy, as well as Ptooie oddly acting like a counter at times for masher/brawler types The character feels very anti/counter meta in those senses which is cool imo
As a Plant main, you couldnt explain better. The anti-air character type is very unique, and super fitting when you consider their role in the Super Mario Series
@@theogeitondasamphilochos5630 I’d argue Pokémon doesn’t really have an equivalent, since competitive Pokémon players usually have a better sense of what’s good. Like, top players know Quagsire’s good. You can play with 6 Pokémon at a time and you generally need less time to get a feel for a Pokémon than a fighter in SSBU.
Piranha Plant has a great advantage state. The reason he's so bad is because he has so few options in neutral and disadvantage. If you look carefully at the clip at 10:07 the only moves Tasu uses in neutral are ptooie, jab, nair, and the occasional dash attack
Plant is the Shuma-Gorath of Smash Bros. Hardly anyone wanted them, but the devs must have enjoyed animating their moves even if they become mid to low tiers in their metas.
I genuily believe Piranha Plant is just the last Main Game Character and at some point in development they decided to put the case of finishing that last character later after the release and focus on bringing a finished game on release. I mean they even gave us him free for everyone that owned the game already
It kinda is, there was code for it in the base game and it's the only DLC to have Palutena's Guidance, a fighter showcase video on the Smash Bros. website, and a non-cinematic Final Smash. Plus its Classic Mode route is all the base-game newcomers.
I still definitely think plant was a base game character that didn't get finished in time for release. They're just Ultimate's "random" character. Every smash game has one.
13:08 I’m pretty sure Kept won a major on villager (uprising 2022, it was an SWT gold tier but I’m not sure if that counts) which would take him off the list. He’s a crazy good Japanese player and beat Gackt for first place.
piranha plant may be garbage in competitive format but is really powerful in the 4 player ffa items on casual format. the spike ball move in particular is incredibly lethal when people aren’t paying attention to you.
I don't care that this character is trash, i still love it. Sakurai did the funniest move he ever could have done by adding a carnivorous plant hidden in a pipe out of all the possible characters as the first DLC
It's always fun to see a low tier character get big upsets like this. I enjoy playing the plant and hope that one day I can maybe win one of my university tournaments even though this is sadly my last year and I can't say I'm at peak capacity with my controller and all that. I would like to buy a modified controller that I have which is a PDP fight pad GameCube style controller but the sticks are the biggest issue that I'm trying to figure out. I might not go through it but at the same time it does suck to think I can't fully unlock plant with my flimsy sticks I have right now. Maybe one day though I can do it with just what I have
Piranha Plant Should've Been Added To Super Smash Bros Ultimate On April 1st So It Could Be An April Fools Character. But Instead It Was Added On January 29th Or February 1st. Yes, I Googled It And Google Gave Me Two Answers.
Every character in smash is viable. Sakurai said they could tell from the statistics they gather that there is a 4% difference between the most played character and the least played character. _4%_ . That’s about as perfect as you can get.
4% online, and with a large casual base. Both are things that make characters like Ganondorf and Zelda appear much stronger than they will at high level in person events, and characters like Sheik much weaker. Also, I don't know what that stat is, but it looks like usage, not win rate. Those are very different stats. He also once said that Daisy had a significantly higher win rate than Peach, admitting he had no clue why since they were so similar. Which is to say, even the win rate statistics can produce odd results.
MSF has actually taken a game at a major top 8, funnily enough. Miya took game 1 against Shadic during winners finals at the Litvitational 2 early this year while messing around with the character. He then lost the next two games with the character, forcing him to switch back to G&W to take the set.

We Got a Pirahna Plant over Waluigi! I'll never forget..............................
😅😮😮😊😊😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 12:30
wow good video
wow good comment
Glad to see Walt watching smaller TH-camrs
Obama medal meme
🤨
He cant get away with this…
1:47 dont let this distract you from the fact that shuton down aired a pikmin to recover
Where were you when Shuton Daired a pikmin?

I know 0 about this channel, but the second you said plant gang I hit subscribe.
Plant Gang 🆙😤💪
In that case I’m totally on the other side of the spectrum, been watching for a while but I’m not sure I dig this new style with the added comedy 😵💫

@@ShiKaiNan this is part of the PLANT growing process! haha get it because this video is about plant
PLANT GANG, RISE UP!
🗣🗣🔥🔥
Rise UP!!!!!!!
plant gang forever!
He didn't mention Spargo having a nasty p plant dang
I feel like it's for the best tho cuz spargo never uses it in actual offline brackets (not that I can remember or not consistently) so show casing two people who might not be known by many and showing how they advance a plant is a more entertaining video
I know sparg0 used it as a secondary and for squad battles @@nellio3981

It's kind of like how people just assumed Byleth was low tier simply because he was slow, not considering his range and power means something.
So basically Smash equivalent of Metamon or Quagsire in competitive Pokemon, isn't it?

Hawk Tooie will be the name I will refer to as PP’s Neutral B from now on
Fuuuuuuuuuu-

Piranha Plant is so damn fun to play despite being low tier.
a few low tiers are like that. kirby, isabelle, and gunner are my fave low tiers
@@duckified. hiiiiiiiiiii

@@MeesterTweester
Aright thanks for the information, now its crystal clear
Piranha Plant being the first DLC character was a bold move, I respect it
Did you know that Ultimates first DLC fighter was Pirahna Plant from super mario bros?
No way. It's almost like that's the name of the video
I still definitely think plant was a base game character that didn't get finished in time for release. They're just Ultimate's "random" character. Every smash game has one.
"I see you looking at me... Respectfully."
And I see you, looking at me, looking at you.
So, now what? Respectfully, of course
4:59 “Its neutral special-“ *COMMENCE BRAWL STARS AD*
my friend just dropped plant, i hope this video makes him reconsider.
Fort Collins has two top plant mains that I struggle against so it’s about time that plant did good at majors again
What the fuck is the pressure sequence Ptooie straight up swallow back into jab
PLANT GANG RISE UP!!!!
When you said "plant gang" it was like my sleeper activation code was activated lmao.
the only DLC fighter to literally be an industry plant
I really dig the different writing and editing style you use for this channel.
YOOO I WAS HOPING SOMEDAY YOU'D MAKE A PIRANHA PLANT VIDEO I THOUGHT YOU WOULDN'T
the best character in the roster
IM gonna do it. With GANONDORF.
13:08 I’m pretty sure Kept won a major on villager (uprising 2022, it was an SWT gold tier but I’m not sure if that counts) which would take him off the list. He’s a crazy good Japanese player and beat Gackt for first place.
LETS GO PLANT
Proud Plant main!!
He doesn't know about the Little Mac incident...
I love your videos man! Please keep it up
Something something to boost the algorithm. Great vid Walt. Plant gang
9:25 idk if anyone will ever read this but im pretty sure Yn is pronounced like wine
Brood is a legendary Brawl player, had no idea he was (had been?) still playing!
All hail our plant overlord.
Someone was a fan of Key & Peele's Gremlins 2 sketch
piranha plant may be garbage in competitive format but is really powerful in the 4 player ffa items on casual format. the spike ball move in particular is incredibly lethal when people aren’t paying attention to you.
this video really brings me back to that fateful day in 2019
Shoutouts to into the AM. Their shirts are just actually sick lol
PLANT GANG!!
As a Plant/Brawler/Puff main, Plant Gang
cant tell if the hawk tuah shit is ironic but honestly either way im here for it
Plant :)
Best dlc.
Hes very kind too. He gives me a 2nd bowling ball for free.
4:00 PICKLEBALL ALERT
i feel like bowser jr has so much potential just not very many people playing him
Walt I love the vids! Would love to see a video on Leo!
Live Shuton reaction
9:19 sol badguy
13:10 Ike hasn't top 8'd a major? I'm guessing it has a year cutoff bc I think Leo's Ike run in the beginning of the game should count right?
Since the final patch, I believe.
MSF top 8'd a C tier this year - Floating Point 2024 in Sydney. Players name is Relo
I don't care that this character is trash, i still love it. Sakurai did the funniest move he ever could have done by adding a carnivorous plant hidden in a pipe out of all the possible characters as the first DLC
ROBIN,robin is next.
WARP ZONE 2 MENTIONED
(I got 7th 😊)
You lost to a Plant 😭
@MichaelOvules-ep5ti hey I didn't fight Lucky this tournament (I did lose to him later though)
behold the only dlc character that isnt either batshit insanely broken or barely worthwhile competitively
This probably my most viable main on online (the other two were ganandorf and little mac)
You did NOT drop a goddamn hawk tuah meme on october 2nd 2024
13:30 which Ridley player made top 8?
mezcaul at regen 2024
96 views in 5 minutes... bro turned down for walt

Whoa, professional

SPLANTTTT

MINNESOTA MENTIONED
Real ones got plant for free
RISE
Hawk Tooie!
I think anyone besides ganon can do it with a good bracket path, maybe not mac or msf but the rest I can see
mii swordfighter is way better than doc, as someone who plays both

Walter you are a good looking man. I am not gay, but if I was I would be crushing on you. Idk I’m not really gay but I feel like you needed this.
plant gang
please never make a hawk tuah joke again
Great video! The hawk tuah joke is tiresome though
hawk tuah
i love you walt
s/o to puriya
No mention of ryandcb???
I feel like spargo is a huge part of piranha plant's history. Makes the video feel pretty bleh.
pls do Sephiroth next
HAWK TOOIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spargo coinbox plant??
not mentioning the SPLANT is disappointing
Splantg0 🙌
