Do the Pits. They have a lot of good moves. They have a very easy to pick up combo game. For example, auto cancel nair into auto cancel nair in dair is true and you can connect fair to fair. They can edge guard very effectively. They also has a combo throw that combos for a while and a meh kill throw. They really only have a few flaws like their up b which has no hit box and is linear, but their neutral b, down b and side b are all very useful recovery tools that help to detract edge guarding, and their air speed which is 0.935. It’s not the worst, but it’s down there with Dedede’s at 0.8.
Dedede, although the antagonist at first, eventually became one of the 4 main heroes of the Kirby franchise. Most of the time, you fight the King when he gets possessed, cloned, etc. By the way these breakdowns are great, but you forgot one thing: Analyzing the crouch.
King dedede is my main I was going to be inkling but then it was meta knight and then Kirby then mii sword fighter then k rool and so on and so forth but then I found the most perfect character for me and I’ve played dedede since and he’s really promising!
What I always do after I break a shield, I like to take a bit of care to make sure that the opponent will be in the Side-Smash's sweet spot and fully charge the Side-Smash as well. A fully charged Side-Smash as well as hitting the sweet spot will kill most characters at 14% exactly.
There’s actually 3 Gordo speeds, not 2; by tilting the stick down, it will go at a medium speed. It’s great to use in conjunction with his Dash Attack. Otherwise great guide! Mad props for someone actually making a guide for him Edit: A few minor things I also noticed - Super Jump is also cancellable by holding up on the movement stick, and Jet Hammer stops inflicting self-damage past 100%
Actually, actually there's four. When you smash the stick for a side Gordo it travels faster and further than trowing it out soft. It's like Samus' rockets but more subtle, basically.
DerPafferfish there is 6 with that alone, not counting the CUp grodos, and we can’t even use all of those because it counts the frames you input with the c stick. Have fun!
This is a great guide :) You dedediscussed the character well and dededescribed him with a lot of dededetail. You dededelivered your explanations and dededemonstrations well, making this guide much better than a dededecent one. You have proven the dededestruction and dededeadliness of King Dedede. Great job :)
Fun fact: dedede has the strongest forward smash and dash attack in the game (under normal circumstances) Also you forgot to mention that down b has super armor on swing
PS: the leitmotiv of king dedede is his down throw that can combo until death confirms with up air (also very usable bair at mid percents) and the use of gordo to ledge trap and edge guard, as a proyectile or putting it at the ledge, and following it up with aerials or hard punishes above the stage, like smashes or a spike. And now is more viable to use gordo as proyectiles, since you can reflect them with inhale, even if they aren't deflected. The patch did screw up a bit the gordo so it's easier to throw back instead of exchanging with it. If you have no option but to superjump into the ledge when there's somebody ready to edge guard, to prevent two frames, you can hold down to go over the ledge without grabing it, and maybe score a sort of dedecide with the spiking hitbox of up-b The f-tilt is more useful for punishing agression or badly spaced moves, because it's so active (having multiple hitboxes) and the length of the move itself, which makes it a wonder to cover ledge options. You can also cover the ledge with a rapid jab, that would be problematic for characters with bad jumps or recoveries all together. My phone is lagin', i'm just gonna stop xd
you missed a couple cool things about dedede. you can shark through the ledge with fair in addition to up air. when recovering with up b, you can completely skip grabbing the ledge and land on stage with the full force of the up b move if you make a semicircle with the control stick towards the direction of the stage. I've gotten some awesome kills with this and it's an excellent recovery mix up. the angle of his Gordo can now be controlled with the c stick as well, as long as you set your c stick to tilt attack. this allows for dedede to have over 5 different angles to launch his Gordos at, making them deadly for ledge trapping. overall, great video and hope i see more d3 mains online!
D-Throw combos into U-Air at pretty low percents, so I'd recommend trying that too. You can still use it at high percents, but it will require a bit of prediction.
While Dedede is at 100% or higher, his Down Special will no longer inflict self damage while holding it fully charged. So while you're at 100% or higher with Dedede, feel free to walk slowly and menacingly towards the enemy with a fully charged hammer. Also, something I do a lot whenever I'm close to an opponent with a fully charged down special is short hop and release mid-air onto the opponent. Since Dedede is *super* slow while walking and charging the hammer, short hopping before you reach your (opponent's final) destination but still close enough to where the hammer will hit at the top of the opponent's hit-box while mid-air will make sure that you take away the option of your opponent jumping to dodge. Also, for a brief moment while releasing the Hammer Charge (any % charge), Dedede will have invincibility (I believe it's just before and during when the hammer's hit-box reaches it's full length to the right/left). One last thing, fully charged hammer will always break a shield no matter what (unless they do a perfect shield of course).
Something worth pointing out about Dedede's Super Jump is the super armor frames. Essentially, when Dedede's is rising and falling, he can't be launched at all. However, when he is at the apex of his jump, he is vulnerable. That is why I would not recommend using the move at the blast zone consistently. While that is a great method of escaping many edgeguarding tactics, if your opponent has a decent spike they can just wait for you to jump and then spike you before you catch the ledge. Also, if you hold down your control stick while recovering with your Super Jump, you will not snap to the ledge and simply rise above it, and this is a great way to surprise people who focus too heavily on edgeguarding. I have gotten many kills and shieldbreaks by surprising people with that move, so I would recommend using it as a mixup every now and again.
Dedede new final smash: he pulls out a phone, dials a number, and yells into the phone "I NEED MONSTAH TAH CLOBBAH DAT DERE KIRBEH!" and then a MONSTAH comes out of the phone and CLOBBAHS the people in a certaint radius around dedede. If KIRBEH is on the stage, they focus on CLOBBAH-IN' DAT DERE KIRBEH!
*DEDEDE IS THE NAME YOU SHOULD KNOW DEDEDE IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW HE's MORE THEN YA THINK HE IS ABSOLUTE blue DEDEDE IS THE ONE* Man that was everyone's childhood right there you guys remember dedede right back at cha man those were the days...
2:35 Too Close and two far are just a "ground only" quake effect from the shockwave of the hammer, where as the sweet spot is the hammer head, which can hit anyone (not just grounded).
While using the Super Jump, B/Special can be replaced with Up/Jump to cancel out of it. Although, I'm pretty sure landing after cancelling out of a Super Jump will take a few frames longer for Dedede to regain his composure, but don't quote me on that.
Couple lf things you didn’t mention. NAir combos into up tilt as well. So you can do NAir- Up Tilt- UAir. Down throw also combos into FAir. It’s a good combo to rack some easy damage. FAir and BAir can chain with themselves. They get me a lot of kills. I’m a Dedede main and thought some newer Dedede’s should know these additional combos from me. Great vid!
If you cancel dedede's superjump while you're too close to the ground, you'll go into an even longer landing animation. So make sure not to time it too poorly
10:25, actually, if you land it on stage, it is a decent kill move. Kills at higher percents, but has a great angle and power for getting a damaged opponent offstage. Of course it spikes as well, which is a bonus if used on airborn opponents, perfect for making montages.
Insightful guide. I actually main Ike, but find DDD fun to play as. So I've decided to make him my co-main! Strangely, I've been having a bit more luck winning online matches with him then Ike...
When fully charged dedede forward smash kills shield broken sephiroth at 47% from the opposite side of the stage Also guys gordo has priority over joker's side b whether he has arsen or not its really good for jokers who spam it And you can hit gordo downwards Also don't cancel up special near the ground the landing lag is pretty much doubled
One more note on Dedede Dash attack is that when it's in use the hit box is raised considerably. If you see an opponent favoring down tilts or down smashes he can jump right over those and hit them with that beefy Dash attack!
“Dedede has one of my favorite smash attacks in the game. Just for the sole reason that it looks like he gives up and drops his entire weight on you” Couldn’t have said it any better myself
Something to note regarding the up special, canceling to special fall just before you hit the ground will cause him to be even more vulnerable to attack
You failed to mention how broken his reflect is. It can reflect some obscure moves like peach's counter and plant's cloud and is also the only reflect in the game that can be infinitely chained with itself
During the Gordo Throw's wind up, pressing down will make the Gordo have a bit more bounce near the end. I usually use Up-Tilt Gordo Throw to keep it near me long enough to suck it up and spit it out for more damage as well as more velocity for the Gordo. (Every time a Gordo is hit/re-used like using Villager's Pocket or sucked up and spit out like with Kirby and/or Dedede, the Gordo does a bit more damage and flies faster each time, although there is a low cap to this.)
Thanks for this "already perfect" guide for Triple D, he's my main on most of the Smash series.(not counting 64 and Melee)I'm gonna use him on an tournament that my school gonna make it on next week. #Dededeistheone!
Additional info on the Gordo that was left out of the video: If you smash the stick as you activate it, the gordo will be launched harder than if you tilt it. The forward-thrown gordo travels very fast if you smash it, and the upward-thrown gordo will move almost 0 horizontal distance if tilted. This is especially good for ledge trapping. Also, if you activate the move and then tilt your stick downward, the gordo will start off moving quickly forward like the forward throw, but will slow down and bounce more in place like the upward throw after a while. It's uses are pretty niche, but it can be useful if you want to mix up the timing from the usual forward throw or if you want to set up the bouncing gordo ledge trap a distance away from yourself.
Amazing guide. I'm picking up D3 in addition to my other main:shulk so if you're looking for recommendations for the next guide, I'd definitely say Shulk
Use up tilt to grab the edge 100% when near it after up b. Don’t just rely on up b. Just make sure you tilt up before the ledge or you won’t grab it. Move left left or right accordingly.
you forgot one thing about the jet hammer: it dips down a bit which means you can hit people who are hanging around on ledge too much other than that great video
Who do you want to see next week?
I'd love to learn how to play Ken better, I think he's one of the most intriguing fighters to be good with.

Break shield > Up taunt > Side taunt > Down taunt > Forward smash

Remember, whenever you break someone's shield, taunt three times, and then forward smash. Don't worry if they escape, it'll still work.
What I always do after I break a shield, I like to take a bit of care to make sure that the opponent will be in the Side-Smash's sweet spot and fully charge the Side-Smash as well. A fully charged Side-Smash as well as hitting the sweet spot will kill most characters at 14% exactly.

My thoughts exactly
This helped A LOT. I didn’t even consider his tilts and how his throws start combos. Very good
PS: the leitmotiv of king dedede is his down throw that can combo until death confirms with up air (also very usable bair at mid percents) and the use of gordo to ledge trap and edge guard, as a proyectile or putting it at the ledge, and following it up with aerials or hard punishes above the stage, like smashes or a spike.

The f-tilt is more useful for punishing agression or badly spaced moves, because it's so active (having multiple hitboxes) and the length of the move itself, which makes it a wonder to cover ledge options.
You can also cover the ledge with a rapid jab, that would be problematic for characters with bad jumps or recoveries all together.
My phone is lagin', i'm just gonna stop xd
His down tilt can combo into itself at low percents to force the opponent off stage to follow up with fair and/ or back air
OMG OMG OMG, I asked for dedede, thank you for this video. I’m gunna rewatch this forever
Nice, I had some people recommend me Dedede as I am a Bowser main and this was very useful!
you missed a couple cool things about dedede.
you can shark through the ledge with fair in addition to up air.
when recovering with up b, you can completely skip grabbing the ledge and land on stage with the full force of the up b move if you make a semicircle with the control stick towards the direction of the stage. I've gotten some awesome kills with this and it's an excellent recovery mix up.
the angle of his Gordo can now be controlled with the c stick as well, as long as you set your c stick to tilt attack. this allows for dedede to have over 5 different angles to launch his Gordos at, making them deadly for ledge trapping.
overall, great video and hope i see more d3 mains online!
shout out to this channel on youtube for teaching me all the dedede knowledge there is to know! th-cam.com/channels/peT_P3SkbTRgvwU7ZBM_sw.html
To bad king dedede doesn't exist on smash flash 2
D-Throw combos into U-Air at pretty low percents, so I'd recommend trying that too. You can still use it at high percents, but it will require a bit of prediction.
3:36 I fell onto the floor.
And you wont get up
man I'm watching this in 2023 and... oh man... we've come a long way
Thanks for making this video, it turned me from a person who was looking for a main, to someone who can beat a level 9 cpu with ddd.
It's important to note that you can fast fall with up air and drag your opponents into a grab. This can work consecutively with down throw - up air
Now that we have seen the King of succ and cucc, I feel like we need the character who INVENTED the succ!

While Dedede is at 100% or higher, his Down Special will no longer inflict self damage while holding it fully charged. So while you're at 100% or higher with Dedede, feel free to walk slowly and menacingly towards the enemy with a fully charged hammer. Also, something I do a lot whenever I'm close to an opponent with a fully charged down special is short hop and release mid-air onto the opponent. Since Dedede is *super* slow while walking and charging the hammer, short hopping before you reach your (opponent's final) destination but still close enough to where the hammer will hit at the top of the opponent's hit-box while mid-air will make sure that you take away the option of your opponent jumping to dodge.

*DEDEDE IS THE NAME YOU SHOULD KNOW DEDEDE IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW HE's MORE THEN YA THINK HE IS ABSOLUTE blue DEDEDE IS THE ONE*

please someone tell me they got that reference
I absolutely love playing king DEdede. I main him in smash ultimate. I think with his inhale being buffed in this game he is like almost top-tier
video is titled incorrectly
it should be "How to win Smash bros"
I love Dedede, but I refer to his recover as "The butt slam"
The dash attack and the up air are probably some of the most satisfying attacks to hit in the game
2:35 Too Close and two far are just a "ground only" quake effect from the shockwave of the hammer, where as the sweet spot is the hammer head, which can hit anyone (not just grounded).
While using the Super Jump, B/Special can be replaced with Up/Jump to cancel out of it. Although, I'm pretty sure landing after cancelling out of a Super Jump will take a few frames longer for Dedede to regain his composure, but don't quote me on that.
The reason he is a king is because Masahiro Sakurai is his alter ego
At 10:53 Update: Im pretty sure this is before the 2.0 patch because it is now impossible to do down throw to pivot to back air
Doing another top tier I see
Nice nice
Couple lf things you didn’t mention.
NAir combos into up tilt as well. So you can do NAir- Up Tilt- UAir.
Down throw also combos into FAir. It’s a good combo to rack some easy damage.
FAir and BAir can chain with themselves. They get me a lot of kills.
I’m a Dedede main and thought some newer Dedede’s should know these additional combos from me. Great vid!
Also, Gordo has 3 speeds (6 if you count the smashed versions of the regular speeds), not two
If you cancel dedede's superjump while you're too close to the ground, you'll go into an even longer landing animation. So make sure not to time it too poorly
Informative without feeling too cerebral for a casual like myself, good stuff.
10:25, actually, if you land it on stage, it is a decent kill move. Kills at higher percents, but has a great angle and power for getting a damaged opponent offstage. Of course it spikes as well, which is a bonus if used on airborn opponents, perfect for making montages.

If a Gordo ricochets back at ya, just press side B again and he'll trow it again
When fully charged dedede forward smash kills shield broken sephiroth at 47% from the opposite side of the stage
Also guys gordo has priority over joker's side b whether he has arsen or not its really good for jokers who spam it
And you can hit gordo downwards
Also don't cancel up special near the ground the landing lag is pretty much doubled
Best guide i've seen on yt thanks
Don’t forget you can also angle the control stick when using the gordo, it makes it slow down as it goes.
You do not play King Dedede, King Dedede plays you.
You don't decide to main dedede
Dedede decides whether you can main him or not
One more note on Dedede Dash attack is that when it's in use the hit box is raised considerably. If you see an opponent favoring down tilts or down smashes he can jump right over those and hit them with that beefy Dash attack!
“Dedede has one of my favorite smash attacks in the game. Just for the sole reason that it looks like he gives up and drops his entire weight on you”
Couldn’t have said it any better myself
I’m a Dedede main so I find this pretty helpful.
Something to note regarding the up special, canceling to special fall just before you hit the ground will cause him to be even more vulnerable to attack
You can also cancel up b by pressing down on the left stick
*"I like em big, I like em chunky"*
I like them COMPLETLY DEDEDESTOYED
You failed to mention how broken his reflect is. It can reflect some obscure moves like peach's counter and plant's cloud and is also the only reflect in the game that can be infinitely chained with itself
4:24 You don't need to quarter circle to get the slow gordo. just press side B then up
Great video as always choc!
Ayeee!
I turtle and swing away like a boss 😂. I’m a Pac-Man and Duck Hunt main but I do play Dedede sometimes when I want to play a heavy character!

Amazing guide. I'm picking up D3 in addition to my other main:shulk so if you're looking for recommendations for the next guide, I'd definitely say Shulk
Use up tilt to grab the edge 100% when near it after up b. Don’t just rely on up b. Just make sure you tilt up before the ledge or you won’t grab it. Move left left or right accordingly.
Can we have BIG BOI Bowser next?
you forgot one thing about the jet hammer: it dips down a bit which means you can hit people who are hanging around on ledge too much
other than that great video
