Agent Smith is the relentless enforcer in The Matrix, always trying to keep things under control—think of him as the world's most intense hall monitor. Initially a program designed to keep humans in line, he becomes obsessed with defeating Neo and getting some much-needed 'me time.' With his superhuman abilities and power to clone himself, Smith is a nearly unstoppable foe who just can’t seem to take a hint.

i already have the 3 star badge for smith

#

😭

bleak spire
#

lets gooo

#

what signature perk do you guys run? I feel like 5% is the best but haven't experimented much yet with the 1 bullet only perk

rancid jasper
#

been having fun with Mr. Smith, altho was unable to end up in a four smith match

fierce pebble
#

Neat he’s got a channel now

rancid jasper
#

so far I've just used 5%, but mostly cus I ran out of perk currency from buying every perk for every character for no reason lol

fierce pebble
#

I unlocked him earlier today I’m about to go play him for the first time

faint zinc
#

100%

#

its gonna get nerfed

#

its so good

#

jab 1 > utilt > down gun > dair > down gun > dair > jab 1 > utilt > dair > nair

#

Hello

sick beacon
#

Sup

Feels good to finally have a channel to the man, myth and legend himself

faint zinc
#

i mean ive been talking in the smith discord all day

maiden bridge
#

His moves are ‘chefs kiss’

jagged crypt
faint zinc
#

theres a discord for most characters

jagged crypt
#

How do I get in that one

faint zinc
#

check the multiversus pro server, theres a channel with all character cords that exist

young plank
#

Hand canon isnt thst great

#

Or it its?

faint zinc
#

hand cannon is hella broken

#

i dont personally it, but the few times i have

#

its def worth using over freeze

young plank
#

Mmmm

jagged crypt
faint zinc
#

freeze you dont get a lot of value with

young plank
#

Ok

#

Bit hand canon got less hitstun

#

With the attacks

upbeat spoke
#

But handcannon allows you to combo

jagged crypt
young plank
#

Like how you could combo down special

upbeat spoke
#

And down special is kinda a noob check

upbeat spoke
young plank
#

Mmmmm

#

So i will buy that one tho

faint zinc
#

hand canon is an entirely different gameplan than multishot

#

you use it to whiff punish and as a neutral option

young plank
#

Anyway command frezee its the best for 2s

upbeat spoke
#

Shiiiioooot

jagged crypt
#

Ty

upbeat spoke
young plank
#

You can di

#

Out of it

upbeat spoke
#

It's true at low percent

#

At mid to high you set up into high stake juggle scenarios

faint zinc
young plank
#

Nice, its like tom and jerry combo but in steroids

faint zinc
#

ive been playing smith all day its true

young plank
#

You cant use dash attack anymore as an combo starter

#

If you use the handcanon one

#

And i found smth really broken

#

With agent smith

#

Its like an ground bounce combo

#

Agent smith could do an ground bounce combo

#

Well il play later

#

Il go sleep

#

Bye bye

bleak spire
#

they just differ if you have more ammo

faint zinc
bleak spire
#

hmm im still experimenting both but tbh i dont feel much difference between normal multishot and hand cannon

#

so rn im leaning towards 5%

hushed plank
flint grail
#

hand cannon makes him a lot more reliable

#

multishot is kinda unreliable atm

faint zinc
#

^

#

realistically id only perfer 2 multishot moves over hand cannon

#

that being aerial down special and dash attack

#

but i dont use dash attack a ton so i wouldnt even notice

bleak spire
#

ok yeah i think hand cannons better

valid pendant
#

agent smith

calm loom
#

Yo

#

How people unlocked agent smith already

#

I think i did every difficulty and im at level 17

#

Idk whats left

fierce pebble
#

There’s exactly 20 bosses right now for you to be able to get him

#

The badge tracks it incorrectly so don’t go off of that

calm loom
#

I did

#

First rifts

#

The 3 difficulties

#

Second

#

3

#

Third

#

Three

#

?

#

Or 2

#

How many theres in Jason rift?

fierce pebble
#

All of them have 3 bosses except the new one which has 2

calm loom
#

Since forth rift

#

Theres only two difficulties

#

Easy and crushing

fierce pebble
#

Looney unlocks tomorrow I’m pretty sure

calm loom
#

Thats level 9

#

And people hace them already unlocked

#

Even without looney

#

I'm pretty sure theres like just 17 rifts

fierce pebble
#

Did you do the new one that came out today?

calm loom
#

Yea

#

Theres only one difficulty

fierce pebble
#

Your Gems probably aren’t high enough level, you have to do insanity which is level 7 gems

calm loom
#

It shouldnt supposed to Say that Even without the level 7

fierce pebble
#

You can only do Easy and Insanity on the new rift

#

You must’ve missed a boss somewhere, I’d run through them again to make sure

calm loom
#

Is digital

#

Right?

#

Then why does it says insanity is unavailable

#

If i have level 8 gems

fierce pebble
#

I dunno man I finished all 20 bosses I’ve got Smith

calm loom
#

Theres something weird on My rift

#

I cant play insanity

#

Being level 8

#

And im seeing people beating insanity difficulty

#

Wth

fierce pebble
#

Maybe you missed an older boss

calm loom
#

I have a question

#

The second rift

#

The velma one

#

Does have insanity?

#

Because if it has i cant either play in that rift being level 8

#

My game is broken

#

Im pretty sure i did all the other bosses in all difficulties

#

I'm counting every difficulty tomorrow

#

Yeah

#

My game is definitely broken

#

Techno terror

#

Does have an insanity difficulty

#

And i can't either play

#

I cant play in any digital rift

#

But i beated insanity

#

In the megalodog rift

#

Im confused now

#

My game is definitely broken

#

Bro

#

Im level 7

#

In horror rifts

#

And digital rifts

#

I beated megalodog

#

In insanity

#

But Jason appears that isnt available in that difficulty

#

But theres literally videos innthay difficulty

#

As same with the new one

#

And i cant play any rift in insanity being level 7 and 8

#

Im feeling scammed rn

is agent smith actually just op?

faint zinc
calm loom
#

Can anyone help me with rifts?

faint zinc
#

@calm loom
rift 1 requires easy experienced and crushing (min level 4)
rift 2 requires easy experienced and crushing (min level 4)
rift 3 required easy experienced and crushing (min level 4)
rift 4 requires easy experienced and insanity (min level 7)
rift 5 requires easy experienced and insanity (min level 7)
rift 6 requires easy experienced and insanity (min level 7)
rift 7 requires easy and insanity (min level 7)

#

this is 20 rifts

calm loom
#

Im level 7 but for some reason it says new rifts insanity mode is unavailable

calm loom
#

I just need to do

#

Insanity

#

In the others

#

And for some reason im level 7 but cant do insanity rifts

shy crescent
faint zinc
#

whats the combo

#

majority of smith players dont know what a true combo is

shy crescent
#

His moves are so weird I cant even tell them apart

faint zinc
#

only 0-50 combo he has is jab 1 > utilt > downwards gun > dair > jab 1 > utilt > gun

#

thats true at least

calm loom
calm loom
#

In insanity difficulty

#

Is the megalodog one

Oh sausageluvr

I literally just got off

for the night

faint zinc
#

oh

shy crescent
#

😭

sick beacon
#

I'm starting to think that Finn vs Agent Smith is a really bad matchup for Smith

shy crescent
#

Ill let u know when im on tomorrow

faint zinc
#

its not bad at all

#

smith players just suck

sick beacon
#

I've been losing constantly to Finn and knowledgeable players can just read your attacks and dodge them on the fly

How is Smith any better than Finn?

faint zinc
#

2 words

#

handcannon camping

#

finn literally cannot approach you if you utilize handcannon correctly

dreamy zodiac
#

I think tnj has been the most frustrating thing to fight

#

And they are EVERYWHERE

faint zinc
#

and for some reason smith has enough range to have the same length jab as finn does

faint zinc
#

easily

dreamy zodiac
#

idk, something I'm doing is wrong because this char is aids

faint zinc
#

i play t&j as my main

#

and im like top 10 smith on ladder rn

#

t&j is +2 i promise you

#

that mu is literally attrocious for t&j

eager vector
#

Me. Me. Me.

faint zinc
#

they need to plan so far ahead that they're doing moves in advance trying to hit smith

eager vector
#

why does smith has the tag assassin on discord lol

faint zinc
#

no clue

eager vector
#

this must be a teaser to Lebron James coming to mvs!!!

dreamy zodiac
long grove
dreamy zodiac

eager vector
#

UwU kitten ears smith skin when

faint zinc
#

everyone here doesnt realize how broken it actually is

#

it destroys projectiles

proper mango
#

what we thinkin about this mf chat

faint zinc
#

got timed out but hand cannon is also disjointed like hell

#

grounded down special can also tank hits

median grotto
faint zinc
#

and t&j is extremely light making it super easy to get kills off him

#

its not smith's best mu, but its definetly top 5 best mus for him

median grotto
median grotto
#

it only takes 1 T&J that knows how to box you out for the matchup to flip

faint zinc
#

its literally the move

#

a neutral tool, a combo tool, a kill option

median grotto
#

cool

#

whatever

faint zinc
#

its an insane move to use and hella broken

median grotto
#

has nothing to do with the point at hand

faint zinc
#

id be surprised if it didnt get nerfed

faint zinc
#

hand cannon plays the game for you

median grotto
#

Again

#

sure

#

but that has nothing to do with the topic of the T&J matchup

#

that's just universal Smith advantage

faint zinc
#

ok so what do you struggle with in the mu then

median grotto
#

When did I say that?

faint zinc
#

nvm thought you were someone else

#

but hand cannon literally stops tennis balls and corks, same with grounded down special

#

smith can go in at diagonal angles extremely well which is the best way to get in on t&j

#

though instead of going for jab for most of your combo starters, you're probably going to have to go for down angled gun into dash sair as an opening

#

gun outranges all of t&j's moves except for paddle but you really shouldnt be going above t&j anyways

#

also smith's dash attack low profiles most of t&j's projectiles too

sick beacon
faint zinc
#

forgot to mention that

faint zinc
#

discord is wrong

sick beacon
#

Agreed lol

faint zinc
#

just from today smith is my 7th highest level character

south valve
#

best follow up after the duplicate grabs the enemy?

sick beacon
#

Nice!

I got him to lvl 8 so far. In spite of my losses, I really love playing as him and figuring out how to make his kit work in the heat of the moment.

Being able to summon a minion, have them chuck an opponent at me, then have so many options to follow up with is so satisfying to me.

faint zinc
#

or nair if you dont want a heavy hitting combo

#

if you're not using freeze perk go for dair > down gun > jab1 > utilt > uair

south valve
faint zinc
#

you get 3 hits of gun

#

then they bounce off the ground

#

leading for enough hitstun to land a dair

south valve
#

oh right

faint zinc
#

though depending on how far they go you may need to go for dash dair

#

dair also just isnt true above 70 so you would opt for sair or uair

south valve
#

Ok thanks 👍

faint zinc
#

his best and easy combo rn is
jab 1 > utilt > aerial down special > sair

#

solid 36 percent from 0

#

with hand canon though you would rather opt for just neutral special over aerial down special and dair over sair

south valve
#

no need to jump after uptilt?

dreamy zodiac
#

Where are people getting this flying spoons taunt for Smith?

south valve
dreamy zodiac
#

Which ones?

for me it happens on the GG one from twitch drop

the age of smith is upon us.

I’m too lazy to do the rifts

This chracters is so sick

eager vector
#

What are some true combos you guys have found?

#

So far i found jab into jab into jab

dire star
#

Just now noticed this channel. Now the real fun begins Mr. Anderson.😎

eager vector
#

Jab, up attack, jump, down air seems to be a good start for a combo

#

At low health

hollow orbit

Finally

#

UwU

hollow orbit
#

And it'll work

Like the salt emoji cloud emoji etc

cedar root
#

Do you guys think smith is balanced?

cedar root
cedar root
eager vector
#

I cant get neatral attack to combo into anything😭

cedar root
#

It usually works after down air but everything smith does is inconsistent

eager vector
#

He is not The One

cedar root
#

You are the chosen one

#

I copied you btw hope that’s alright

hallow stag
#

or better second up atk into nspecial

#

aim up

#

I wonder if yoou guys found a use for the down atk tho ^^

cedar root
cedar root
hallow stag
cedar root
#

Yeah it is but I’m not good at up dodge to down attack

#

Sometimes I still mess up because I hold down while jumping lmao

hallow stag
#

I just switch again my neutral and side cuz it was impossible to do xpivot that way ^^

#

we still learning the game x)

cedar root
#

What’s xpivot?

hallow stag
#

when you dash in a way and quick turn to attack in the other side

cedar root
#

Also the neutral special can go into side special and can kill really early because ppl don’t expect it even tho it’s not true

hallow stag
cedar root
#

Also a lot of ppl don’t know that neutral special combos into jab if you dodge

hallow stag
#

oh dash natk

#

I found ^^

cedar root
#

Does 41 if you don’t hit the side special

#

Because thays the only non-true part

cedar root
#

You can use it 3 times but it’s hard to

#

Also he has an infinite lol

hallow stag
#

is that true on high damage ?

cedar root
#

So I just do jab, up atk, jump, up atk

#

Jab to natk only works up to 60-ish

#

I think

hallow stag
#

yeah i mean it s ok we can kill pretty early on smith

cedar root
#

I can either kill early or at 150

hallow stag
#

xD

#

Bro I play Marvin

#

120 is early for me

#

lol

cedar root
#

Frr

#

Marvin needs to kill earlier

#

I only got him to lvl 5 but still

hallow stag
#

^^

lost prism
#

combos?

cedar root
#

This helped a lot to learn and make combos seeing what works together

hallow stag
#

jab, up atk, jump/dash up, down atk, n spe

#

you can loop this till the edge

#

xD

cedar root
#

If you do n special facing down, does that combo into jab if you dodge?

hallow stag
#

yes it work

cedar root
#

Yeah or just jab, up atk, n special facing down, dodge, loop

red knot
cedar root
hallow stag
red knot
#

Ohh nice

cedar root
#

A lot of times it doesn’t work with combos

#

Because the 1 shot has more knock back than the 2 or 3 shot

red knot
#

I thought you needed the extra shots for some of his combos

hallow stag
#

I use 5% dont think his perks are ok

cedar root
#

If you’re on the side it can kill at 60 sometimes

hallow stag
#

😮

red knot
#

Yeah handgun is really good

hallow stag
#

it extand the range ?

cedar root
#

Yep

hallow stag
#

hum crazy

cedar root
#

If you have more than one bullet it has a sweet spot that extends the range

buoyant ruin
#

5% is good and the multihit can be useful but i think one shot is easily his best

hallow stag
#

it didnt said that

#

i ll give it a try then

lost prism
#

best perks?

buoyant ruin
#

maybe for certain MUs you want the multihit

cedar root
buoyant ruin
#

yeah same

cedar root
#

Multi hit can be good for combos but in general handgun is more fun

red knot
#

Its sad that, thats flammable doc doesn’t work on his gun

cedar root
#

Yeahh but it makes sense

#

Does it work with his decoy because it counts as a projectile?

red knot
cedar root
#

Smith reminds me of Happy chaos ngl

red knot
buoyant ruin
#

you're never running it just for decoy regardless

cedar root
#

That’s fair

#

Still pretty cool tho

hallow stag
#

humm

#

i ll run 5%

#

xD

cedar root
#

Alright lol

#

I just love handgun it’s so fun

hallow stag
#

cant find the early kill unfortunately ^^

cedar root
#

Side special kill early for me but he’s inconsistent so idk

#

Also I gtg byee have fun with smithy

red knot
red knot
hallow stag
#

you can deny an approch to agressive with down atk

#

as he got armor on the moove

#

not bad

cya mate

light ruin

what the combos

red knot
light ruin

eager vector
#

true combo: jab into jab into jab

odd star
#

does down attack break armor

#

it doesnt have the purple effect so im confused since all characters have armor break on down attack

odd star
#

ah dang

#

so he doesnt have any armor break moves

bleak spire
#

yeah seems like it

odd star
#

hes gonna struggle against ww and superman

#

i think thats his only downside rn

#

he seem like a good character that isnt broken

bleak spire
#

that's trrue he's pretty fun he might just have a hard time against certain matchups

#

like maybe morty and superman

#

idk how to counter morty lol so annoying

with 4th rift

I'm still trying to unlock him

i just need 3 more bosses

#

to unlock him

lime vale
#

I need 9

past root
#

oh heyyy finally, was waiting for this
now to read everything... coffee_Jake

hazy flare
#

In case up attack + gun loops get nerfed, sair on grounded opponents forces a ground bounce, so you can follow up with dair, leads to a combo like:
sair -> dodge jump dair -> n. special (down) -> jab1 -> up attack -> nair

eager vector
#

I wish Agent Smith would come to multiversus

civic juniper
#

Everyone enjoying playing as Smith?

lime vale
#

Wish I could use him outfit of the rift

teal salmon
hazy flare
#

Another fun combo ender is jab1 -> n. special (down) -> side special

#

works as long as they bounce on the stage after gun

twin geyser
hazy flare
#

It's just another option

jagged crypt
#

What’s the best way to hit clone

hazy flare
#

You don't

jagged crypt
#

Oh ok

hazy flare
#

It forces a dodge or a jump

#

and then you punish that

glossy bough
#

anyone tryna 1v1

#

need some agent smith MU knowledge

fading drum
#

He’s arrived

#

Also isn’t smith a bruiser? Here it says he’s an assassin on my end

cedar root
#

He is a bruiser but the game has so many glitches so it’s probably just that

jagged crypt
cedar root
#

He def doesn’t play as an assassin right now lol

jagged crypt
#

Yeah

#

Wish he did a little tho

#

We don’t need 500 bruisers in this game

hallow stag
#

class dosnt matter anyway they make no sense in this game

#

WW hit harder than bruser same for the Joker

#

Morty and Marvin has wrong class too

#

It is probably random at this ppoint

cedar root
#

Mages rely on their skills and have longer cooldowns.
bruisers deal heavy hits but can’t kill other than a few moves.
assassins are used for killing either early or after a bunch of damage.
tanks are like bruisers but slower and hard to kill.

light ruin
#

on a few

wicked imp
#

The tags are almost meaningless because so many characters are either misclassified or fit into too many classes

#

How can Steven be a tank when he is no where near as heavy as the others and isn’t slow in the slightest?

#

Why is Morty a bruiser when he has more cooldowns and projectiles than some mages?

#

Why is Batman a bruiser when he has the combo damage and light weight of an assassin?

cedar root
wicked imp
#

Steven is misclassified because he was a “support” in the beta but they removed that class

hallow stag
#

if they could tag multiple class why is he the only one

#

make no sense

cedar root
#

Funny thing is his skins aren’t both it’s just one

#

This game makes no sense istg

wicked imp
#

They were all basically team-based characters who didn’t have any kill power and relied on partners to kill

cedar root
#

Basically rein and Steven I don’t think there’s any others tho

wicked imp
#

But then they buffed all the support characters so they’re basically the same as bruisers

#

But now they have team-helping projectiles

wicked imp
#

Assassins are basically “big combo damage but weaker kill power than bruisers” but they can ladder combo into the blast zone for occasional early kills

#

Bruisers are just “uses fists to fight without many projectiles”

#

Mages are just “uses projectiles”

#

And tanks are just “heavy weight”

#

Except that’s not even consistent because Garnet is as heavy as Wonder Woman or potentially heavier

cedar root
#

Or a hammer

cedar root
#

And are also used for defending which is why WW is a tank and not garnet

#

And Batman is a assassin/bruiser mix because he has combos but mainly hits hard and he’s used for dealing a lot of damage

#

While using little projectiles and fists

#

And Marvin should get a buff to be an actual projectile-assassin

#

Also Idk when I’ll respond again cuz my phone is about to die and I don’t have a charger rn

topaz relic
#

tanks have some form of defensive gimmick that's slightly beyond the one armored move you'd see on a bruiser

#

I'm pretty certain batman is only a bruiser because he doesn't kill people, none of the rest are classified that way but I think that's the reason why

light ruin
#

whoever doesn't have handgun wins the ditto

#

i like handgun better but i think it comes out slower bc you just lose every exchange involving gun if you have it

lime vale
weak sun
#

Which main perk is everyone using?

#

I’m between the basic 5% one and the gun one

#

I did some testing and saw that the 3 shots were dealing better damage than the perk, even with the sweetspot, so now I’m on the fence

jagged crypt
#

The perk is more about combos from what I gathered

weak sun
#

Even in combos, the max of 3 shots was outperforming the single shot

#

Unless it’s just for knockback

#

But I didn’t notice more knockback honestly

prime oak
#

I think the gun perk depends on MU

#

Cuz I think its great for dealing with characters you want disjoints for like IG and Superman

young plank
#

Guys help

#

Any advanced combo?

prime oak
#

As far as I know the main combo is Jab1-Uptilt-Dair and then whatever

young plank
#

I got an an semi loop with

#

Jab up tilt into neutral b

#

But its so tough to do

faint zinc
#

i havent slept since smith has come out

#

im so close to 500 wins

wicked imp
wicked imp
#

Marvin is a mage

#

But I’m not gonna spam this channel anymore with dumb classes

#

Anyway I’m at 19/20 rifts for Smith but I don’t have enough red gems, so maybe tomorrow I’ll have enough idk

upbeat spoke
#

How do you hit downward gun after up tilt consistently

bold steeple
upbeat spoke
upbeat spoke
south ermine
#

I think Morty is a bruiser just in terms of being able to do a lot of damage but not having any crazy good early kill moves

#

unless you're megalodog

wicked imp
upbeat spoke
#

He's an assassin because he restricts options only leading you to die

#

He's just really bad at doing it

hazy flare
upbeat spoke
#

He also doesnt have the necessary tools to be a proper mage

hazy flare
#

What tools make a "proper mage"?

hazy flare
#

because you have to release up or your neutral special won't work

upbeat spoke
#

Jab, uptilt, (i'm assuming no charge) and then the rest of the string? Or like release as in you need a bit of charge

south ermine
#

He just means don't accidentally do up b I think

wicked imp
#

If anything, Wonder Woman armor is more of a move that restricts options

hazy flare

Most the mages, excluding like. Debatably joker. Have tools to play slower and punish the opponent for failing to approach where as marvin is actively trying to approach his opponent

#

All be it slowly

south ermine

wicked imp
upbeat spoke
#

You cant mindlessly push forward on bugs

#

His buttons are too stubby

#

I punish bugs that get aggro on me for free

hazy flare
#

That description applies for Marvin too

#

UFO, bubble, jab 3

wicked imp
#

Not just assassins

topaz galleon
#

what tier would you guys put smith at

hazy flare
#

too early to tell tbh

#

but loops are not healthy for the game and because of them he's probably very high right now

wicked imp
#

Bro it’s literally day 2 lmao

topaz galleon
#

some people already have crazy amounts of wins with him

wicked imp
#

You can farm wins by spamming easy rifts since they also add to your win stat

topaz galleon
#

actually that is true

wicked imp
#

Yeah

#

Wins in rifts add to your win stat for the character you’re using

upbeat spoke
wicked imp
#

But I saw some guy legitimately pulled an all-nighter playing only Agent Smith and has like 500+ wins

#

So like there are also those people

upbeat spoke
hazy flare
#

Can't mindlessly push forward + has tools to play slow and punish for not approaching

wicked imp
upbeat spoke
#

Marvin bubble, jab 3, arent used for playing back

wicked imp
#

Taz gets one good combo and now you’re defenseless as a chicken

upbeat spoke
#

They're used as kill set ups

south ermine
#

Am i crazy or are all of the assassins classified as vertical killers

hazy flare
#

bubble is absolutely not exclusively a kill setup

topaz galleon
upbeat spoke
#

Bubble combos into itself and kills at like 30, ufo kills any percent depending on position. And jab 3 is also like off stage set up/kill took

wicked imp
#

Batman has the best air acceleration so he easily chases down and follows opponents for juggles with his huge aerial up special. Not to mention his combo game is excellent and batterang while not as good as in beta is still good at controlling neutral

hazy flare
upbeat spoke
#

Jab1-2 bubble (with cooldown) jump, bubble, jump, bubble, up special/up air

hazy flare
#

not gonna kill at 30

upbeat spoke
upbeat spoke
hazy flare
#

and bubble -> up air not true at 30

#

I literally lab this char

wicked imp
#

So by your definition, he should also be an assassin

upbeat spoke
#

As do i? I actively play the character as well Its a ladder combo

wicked imp
wicked imp
hazy flare
#

Furthermore, bubble isn't exclusively a kill setup

#

it does fill the role of a tool that you can use in neutral to punish not approaching

#

which is something a mage uses

upbeat spoke
prime oak
wicked imp
hazy flare
upbeat spoke
hazy flare
#

applies to most mage's tools

#

like Bugs

#

and Velma

prime oak
#

Only class that is misplaced imo is Morty, Marvin fits fine as an assasin

wicked imp
#

I’d classify a mage as a character with enough tools (primarily projectiles) to adequately camp and force approaches

#

Basically just set up a wall

hazy flare
#

Also Gizmo is scrappy as heck

prime oak
#

Morty can tho which is why I think he fits mage better

upbeat spoke
wicked imp
#

Assassins I feel similarly to bruisers are forced to approach because they don’t have the tools to camp

#

With Marvin being the only exception

upbeat spoke
#

Like unironically i think marvin bubble is closer to bugs pie than it is bugs safe

hazy flare
#

yes

upbeat spoke
hushed plank
#

I made it to 100 wins on agent smith, send help before I make it to 200

wicked imp
wicked imp
#

Assassins and bruisers are basically the same except for 3 things:

  1. Assassins have better combo ability
  2. Assassins are very light
  3. Bruisers have more raw kill power
true marsh
#

What are his sig perks

wicked imp
#

But like PFG doesn’t even seem to know how to classify several characters and many of them don’t even fit their premise descriptions of the classes anyway

upbeat spoke
#

Also button makes bubbled projectiles an assassiney tool by nature. Hence the unavoidable death set up part of his kit

hazy flare
# true marsh What are his sig perks

Hand cannon: Moves using gun fire one time, with a sweetspot at the end
Freeze Protocol: Grounded down special holds the enemy in place instead of throwing them
Buddy System: Up special can attach to an ally and use an extended version

wicked imp
#

I’d argue button is way more of a mage tool than anything

#

You’re enhancing your projectile game

upbeat spoke
#

And those projectiles are used to kill you early in place of safely killing free from harm

hazy flare
#

If you ask every Marvin player what the #1 problem with him is, they will say lack of kill power

upbeat spoke
#

Yeah, thats because he's a bad assassin

#

But his kit is still of that of an assassin. Just not a good one

wicked imp
#

Tom and Jerry is an assassin because they have extended combos and Jerry shot is a combo tool that leads to a lot of setups, several of which can lead to early kills

#

By your logic

upbeat spoke
#

That is not what im saying at all and i cant see how you got there

hazy flare
#

Gizmo is an assassin B)
Arrow to up air setups

#

Car kills mega early

wicked imp
#

I legitimately don’t see how Marvin and T&J are so different

#

They’re the same class

upbeat spoke
#

Play them both

#

They dont do the same thing

#

Like, at all

wicked imp
#

No two characters do the same thing

#

But they fill similar roles

graceful flume
#

Shaggy and banana

#

Have the same move set

#

Exactly

upbeat spoke
#

They use their tools differently snd play different roles

upbeat spoke
wicked imp
#

The class system itself is just stupid because there is clearly so much room for interpretation and misclassification is apparently too easy

onyx sequoia
hazy flare
#

so T&J is more of an assassin

wicked imp
long grove
wicked imp
#

Loops don’t mean anything especially because half the cast had loops on relaunch

hazy flare
onyx sequoia
hazy flare
#

Shaggy =/= Banana Guard even thought they're both bruisers

wicked imp
onyx sequoia
wicked imp
#

Ok sure give everyone character their own unique class

upbeat spoke
#

I think its a playstyle and tool thing idk

onyx sequoia
upbeat spoke
#

Thats just my 2 cents

wicked imp
#

Oh wait now what’s the point velmaglasses

onyx sequoia
#

That the classes in this game are goofy.

#

Like you can tell they didn't know what to do with Steven since they took out support.

wicked imp
#

Classes are so irrelevant to how a character plays because they all play very differently

#

If anything, a character class system would work in Smash Ultimate because half the cast plays the same

upbeat spoke
#

I only play assassins i cant even comment on the rest of the roster but idek

wicked imp
#

But it really doesn’t in MVS

upbeat spoke
#

It wouldnt make sense to have one to begin with in that game

wicked imp
#

They don’t make sense at all in the majority of fighting games

#

We’ve come so far from the stereotypical archetypes

#

There’s way too much overlap

long grove
#

Because he's projectile focus.

wicked imp
#

I thought he was one in beta but I could be wrong

onyx sequoia
onyx sequoia
#

Like what class would Steve with all his shtick?
Or like Pyra & Mythra they switch playstyles mid game.
Sora's like a hybrid of swordie, projectiles, and burst movement
But he doesn't play like a swordie.
Can't play like a zoner
And defo isn't a rushdown.
What do you even call that?

wicked imp
long grove
wicked imp
#

Oh for Steve I mean

onyx sequoia
#

Defensive camper describes like 3 different archetypes.

#

You could be a zoner.

#

hit & run

wicked imp
#

There’s way way more than 3

onyx sequoia
#

Or bait & punish.

onyx sequoia
wicked imp
#

Rushdown, grappler, and Jack-of-all-trades are 3 more

onyx sequoia
#

Like the 0 to death squad all my homies H8 Kazuya/Luigi, and sometimes Icies.

#

But they're all fairly defensive-campy characters.

#

Despite having very little overlap in how they're played.

wicked imp
#

Ult literally has its own class of “Luigi-like characters”

#

Characters that just fish for one neutral win and kill with a single combo

#

There’s like 5 of them

onyx sequoia
#

There's like 2

#

You can SDI Luigi combos.

#

You can defo SDI Falco combos

#

And you can 100% SDI Bayo combos
Then she doens't kill you until 160.

#

I mean I guess if you don't know how to do that.

#

Then there's 7 or so.

wicked imp
#

If you’re consistently escaping Luigi combos with SDI, then the Luigi player isn’t good

onyx sequoia
#

So I see what you mean. 🤷‍♀️

wicked imp
#

He has routes to follow every SDI option

onyx sequoia
wicked imp
#

I’d know because I’m a Luigi main in Ult

onyx sequoia
wicked imp
#

Oh no they all still do

#

Optimally, you can’t escape

#

You just make the Luigi have to react and not autopilot

#

God forbid you play a big character because then SDI doesn’t even matter

long grove
#

Uh i just faced someone who had Smith but only defeated 16 bosses.

wicked imp
#

That’s wack

#

Are some bosses not counting?

onyx sequoia
#

That's a good reaction, but needs the ledge to take stocks.

onyx sequoia
jagged crypt
#

I only have 19 bosses listed

long grove

Weird

fresh goblet

Any smithers in here?

onyx sequoia

I kinda wish I'd just be able to buy Smith instead.

wicked imp
kindred agate
#

thats what im doing

fresh goblet
#

I did the rifts bc ftp free character is pretty lit

kindred agate
#

playing a character 2 weeks early is not worth the hellish grind of the rifts

wicked imp
#

I’m at 19/20 rifts but I don’t have enough red gems

fresh goblet
#

The rifts werent hard tho

#

If you did them over time like a normal person

#

Instead of trying to do them all in one sitting.

wicked imp
#

Honestly, if you didn’t play the beta to unlock every character, playing rifts to get him free is worth because of how stingy they are with fighter currency

fresh goblet
#

Real ig, most of the fighter currency is locked behind playins characters and leveling them up.

#

Which the weekly rotation is supposed to solve

#

Idk I hope they keep doing events like this for whole ahh characters

wicked imp
#

I stupidly didn’t spend all my gold in beta so now I have like 200k perk currency crying_steven

#

I only have like half the cast unlocked

fresh goblet
#

I have a good bit of the cast unlocked but I really only buy who I play

#

I go into training and test extensively before I buy characters

wicked imp
#

Thank god they brought that back

fresh goblet
#

I've bought a couple to meet event requirements, but very rarely, like when I have an excess of currency.

wicked imp
#

Not being able to try characters at relaunch was awful

fresh goblet
#

It was fixed relatively fast

wicked imp
#

Especially for newbies who only have Shaggy and Banana Guard after 2 days

fresh goblet
#

Like week 1

faint zinc
#

about to hit 500 wins

fresh goblet
#

Jesus

#

Can I ask

#

Any reliable kill options/way to confirm grab?

#

I feel like he has really good combos but his kill options are really only 110+

faint zinc
#

jab 1 > utilt is probably our best and most reliable kill confirm

fresh goblet
#

That's what I thought

#

It feels really strong

wicked imp
#

The Rick confirm I see

faint zinc
fresh goblet
#

Also does the up special feel odd to anyone else? It feels like it lacks a lot of priority, I've been getting jabbed out of it alot.

faint zinc
#

up special is only good when planking or if you land a clone grab

#

other than that, just dont use it

fresh goblet
#

I've been seeing people use down neutral to extend neutral chains

wicked imp
fresh goblet
#

The armor on it is also pretty good.

faint zinc
#

the amount of times ive been spiked for using up special is insane

#

its not a good move at all

#

unless used in a planking scenario

fresh goblet
#

It needs some kind of priority increase, neutrals should not be out prioing an up special imo.

#

I think it needs armor but I fear that'd make it too OP

wicked imp
#

He just probably needs more I-frames

#

Like Jason mist

fresh goblet
#

Real

faint zinc
#

499 wins

#

time to get the 500th and then sleep

fresh goblet

# cedar root Do you guys think smith is balanced?

hella late i was scrolling through this channel lmao. But imo not really. He feels mostly balanced but his upair is crazy good and any of his gun attacks especially with sweet spot are crazy good as well. Hella kill power with lots of attacks

onyx sequoia
river urchin
#

Aye this channel is finally up

onyx sequoia
#

Not sure how to feel about the dude.

need more playtime with him to tell for sure lmao

He seems pretty good. Kind of a monster in 2s at times

Worse in 1s

yeah I can definitely see him being fun in 2v2

Who do you main?

i main an assortment of characters. buggs, morty, now smith, gizmo, and ww

#

well less so buggs i havent played him in a bit

river urchin
#

Alr I’ll just ignore a couple and say you play smith 🤝

proper mango
#

Now that smith is out and that his gameplay is actually fun, this makes me hopeful for future character drops 🔥

#

(besides from the way we can obtain him without using currency, that was hell)

river urchin
#

Gonna have to do the rifts process all again next season 😭

#

Smith was worth it although

proper mango
#

ive heard a couple times that if beetlejuice gets added hes gonna be rifts also

river urchin

Yeah

#

Probably next season

proper mango

im praying we can keep our gem levels but im not too hopeful about that 😭

river urchin

I highly doubt it lol

#

But I wish

onyx sequoia
#

Just give them a gun.

proper mango
#

agreed

#

that part is so funny to me

#

everyone is fighting using some wacky moves from their franchise and then smith is just gun to the face

river urchin

True

#

Both of my mains have a gun lol

worldly niche

can someone test if jab1 -> neutral attack is true?

proper mango
#

speaking of true combos anyone know any? I've kinda just been doing whatever so far lol

river urchin
#

There’s some IAD stuff you can do up on yt

#

Some of them have super tight timing windows although

rancid jasper

I want to play more agent Smith but my internet is out graaa
born to play new character, forced to touch grass

river urchin

Just like Agent Smith would tell you

wicked imp
full nimbus

Magnum not required works just fine with triple shot

Also inconsistent but dash attack magnum side b is a kill confirm around 70%

More of a knowledge check on di

Refer to gsmVoid’s video for another variation of the same loop

for the people who completed those god awful rifts is agent smith worth it?

Yes

I like using the Hand Cannon

You can hit some sick spikes with it

but they scrapped that role entirely

morty only really has two projectiles

snakeshot and grenades

#

he fits bruiser tbh

#

marvin boxes with his projectiles for the most part

maiden bridge
#

Honestly I don’t think he’s that good

full nimbus
#

Nah you gotta test him more hes mobile and does a crap ton of dmg and has tnj loops

maiden bridge
#

I mean in 2’s

#

He’s def good in 1’s

river urchin
#

He’s better in 2s than ones

#

You can bully people trying to recover if you are coordinated

full nimbus
#

2s hes a side b machine that thing’s hitbox is way too big

#

marvin got some scary stuff

river urchin

You can control so much space in 2s with neutral special also

marvin is really solid im ngl

No smith

Not marvin

maiden bridge

oh mbmb

It’s cool

glossy bough

so I was a lil confused

#

oh well

full nimbus
#

Anyone coming into a channel for the first time never looks at the messages sent literally a minute beforehand so like thats not yr fault 💀

glossy bough
#

that gun is a warcrime

river urchin
#

Character is nasty, already have a ton of clips with him

glossy bough
#

im kinda annoyed you cant force smith out of bullets though

#

then his disadvantage would be a lot more punishable

maiden bridge
#

I mean it could just be that I gotta get used to him

#

Since he feels so different compared to the rest of the roster

river urchin
#

His disadvantage state gets created fast while also disappearing quickly

glossy bough
river urchin
#

He’s not great at escaping that state but yeah

#

If you are good at movement and neutral special you will probably have decent success with the character

maiden bridge
#

His neutral is insane

river urchin
#

Yup

glossy bough
#

great neutral and advantage + decent disadvantage

#

hes cooking

stark anvil
#

Oh he finally had a channel now cool! I don't remember this being here yesterday. Anyways as the server's Smith mascot I'll be posting a ton of neat tidbits and funny stuff in regards to the character here

#

To start off, absolutely you should roll Snowball Effect and Pugilist perks with him. Somehow he has not a single projectile, but that makes Pugilist all the more worth using. And Snowball Effect's extra damage really adds up, it helps get some of his finishing blows out a tad more.

rancid jasper
#

I think his only projectile is down special grounded, being the agent he spawns

hollow orbit
#

Is there an agent smith cord yet

river urchin
#

Yeah I think that triggers flammable

stark anvil
#

Oh yeah the clone is a projectile however it's not something you're exactly going to be dealing damage with as it's a support tool, that and it isn't something you can spam like Bugs or Marvin's projectiles

river urchin
#

Of course

civic juniper
river urchin
#

Nope

stark anvil
#

Yeah, they're more like shotgun blasts and not bullets despite the fact they are bullets

civic juniper
#

What in the name of Team Fortress 2 hitscan is this nonsense

stark anvil
#

Fortnite

#

In all seriousness though it does make Pugilist the go-to perk for him

#

As for his Signature Perk, Hand Cannon and Freeze_Protocol are both very good in their own right. You can use either or and see great success.

glossy bough
river urchin
#

I prefer hand cannon atm

stark anvil
#

Buddy System is supposed to be like a 2v2 centric perk but even then I don't find it too useful there, I don't recommend it.

glossy bough
#

hand cannon better

civic juniper
#

I have a question

stark anvil
#

Question away.

glossy bough
#

why does agent smith have sm aura

civic juniper
#

Does anyone know how much Pugilist increases Melee attack

light ruin
#

after i wash dishes

civic juniper
#

Like is it a percentage

#

Is it a flat rate

light ruin
#

10 maybe

#

I've heard 10% but no idea how true it is

stark anvil
#

It doesn't say, for some reason that's the only increase perk that doesn't outright state the details

#

I don't know if it's like 1 point more or 10% overall more or what
But I feel like I kick total keester with it

languid iris
stark anvil
#

This is very much a good video yes

languid iris
#

ik

stark anvil
#

Honestly most of the other Standard perks aren't even worth it really
Maybe Clean the Air as parrying reflects projectiles but that's super situational

river urchin
#

I still need to know if combo 27 works with hand cannon

stark anvil
#

On all (or most at least) circumstances I say Pugilist for Standard perks

proper mango
proper mango
stark anvil
#

Yeah for sure

proper mango
#

i lowkey wish they kept a lot of the perks from the beta. some were kinda useless yeah but it made for a lot of variety and builds depending on playstyle

glossy bough
#

i say just run last stand

#

no harm in running last stand for the 2nd perk slot

#

free weakened

#

and smiths advantage state is good

stark anvil
#

A ton of Smith's attacks are actually quite similar both on ground and in the air so I don't think Airwalker benefits him too much in regards to Strong perks
I switch between either Speed Force Assist or Last Stand

river urchin
#

Yeah stay away from airwalker

glossy bough
#

trust me

proper mango
#

im not good enough to use airwalker anyway lmfao

glossy bough
#

give it a couple weeks

#

and some airwalker agent brown combos

#

are going to start spreading

languid iris
glossy bough
#

snowball effect is just generally the better perk option

proper mango
#

refresh after ringout isn't too great tbh. only if your really really out to the edge of zone but otherwise its easy to come back with almost the entire cast

faint zinc
stark anvil
#

Also not a meta-related perk but a funny bug in regards to Smith

#

Equipping the Salt taunt for some reason activates a currently unreleased emote for him

languid iris
stark anvil
#

He summons a bunch of bent spoons that dance around him in a 360° radius

river urchin
#

Isn’t it any emoticon?

#

Not just salt

stark anvil
#

And it's freakin' hilarious

rancid jasper
#

oh yeah the spoon bender one
that's funny
this game man, its silly

#

like how does that happen

stark anvil
#

I have no clue

#

Also Smith now has purchasable skins, which he didn't yesterday

#

The Shark Hat Smith and the Tooniverse Smith

I'm guessing his Cybernetic skin will be available when his early-access period ends.
