Make Cloud permanently small and we have a trauma to add to the pile.

Pentacontakaihexaslash

And you can make that happen right here on Smash Bros. Just set the one winged angle squad to the highest level with no smash ball or items to get in the way and make it a team battle. Let the nightmare fuel burn. 😂

Yeah... That was pretty much the stream live lol

I’m so glad I caught that on stream.

Right mindset to do anything.

And then we learned Marx wasnt fully realized in the game as a boss....

Then Explain Geno that character got shitted on so bad that Geno Fans (like myself) are having a hard time accepting he's not in smash

@@silverdragoon27 What would Geno have gotten as a full-formed character that the Mii Gunner moveset wouldn't have already covered sufficiently?

@@silverdragoon27 your statement is contradictory how come he shittin on geno when he is not even in the game lol, the ts even saying about how sakurai will do justice to every char that he put in in the game, talk like that when geno really in the game

Sephiroth is a Mai fan

Any sane person is

he is for advence children tho

Sephiroth is for Final Fantasy 7 and because Sora will never be added, Kingdom Hearts fans

It's for edgy teenagers

I hear Dr. Eggman's name getting thrown in. I see Sakurai is adding more villains this time round. Ridley, K. Rool, Dark Samus, Piranha Plant, Wolf and now Sephiroth.

@@goldzero1203 storm is approaching

Provoking black clouds and isolation

@@goldzero1203 - Why do you all get his name wrong? :'(

Maybe it’s because he made sure they did such an amazing job that I still can’t believe Sephiroth is actually in Smash Bros. Seriously. Still in that disbelief phase.

@@Hibernial I wonder who'll be next to top his reveal!

Who could have guessed a guy with Sonic in his name has shit taste in games?

His eyes light up and is close to tears.

@@FlameJackstar ngl anyone including me will tear up hearing this nostalgic theme. its like a callback when cloud and tifa found out the crew dint left them at the highwind

I’m not even the biggest FF7 fan and hearing that remix took me back I felt right at home listening to that theme

Most people were just spamming chat and being hype, rightfully so

Yea I didn’t know we could unlock him from mode. I thought it was something for fun mode to fight him, that’s it lmao

i missed the part where he said that they scrapped the part where it was one chance any difficulty. i initially thought it was one chance on very hard. kinda wish i unlocked him on very hard and not normal but oh well.

I think it was just worded weirdly or not clear enough

@@DanOwnsall112 how is not clear " If u defeat him, you get him" how is that not clear?

@ Could'veBeenBetterProductions To be fair though, Kirby lore didn’t start getting super crazy until after he left.

I believe the stage is Omega Mode on Very Hard as well. Love little details like that.

Did you mean KH1 and KH2 or KH0.5 'cause they have that too lol

*Catches Severe KH 1 Olympus Coliseum PTSD* *Whilst hearing One-Winged Angel*

STOOOOOOOOOP. I swear that boss was impossible without strike raid

Maybe, I've never played Kingdom Hearts 1/2

@@mythicaldragon2686 Sephiroth is a super boss in them. He's not as bad in KH2, but he could oneshot and easily kill you in KH1 if you weren't properly leveled or skilled.

Wait he did that? Damn no wonder I love that version so much. The tales series and golden sun are some of my favorite games ever lol

@@darknesswave100 we really need a new golden sun game

And the Valkyrie Profile too.

@@KaminariHouse I was going to say that too. But yes thank you. Regards, a sad Valkyrie Profile fan.

The unsung hero of RPGs. Mitsuda, Shimomura, and Koshiro have certainly earned their stripes, but Sakuraba's vast range of games is second to none.

I think someone employed the same strategy to kill him in less than 3 seconds xD I'll try to find the sauce.

Just finished VERY HARD with Cloud in 17 seconds

I did it that way too, but y took me 1 minute 26 seconds

@@nickharlow4464 I did it in 8 seconds

@@The_Vible same here. beat him as cloud in 7.86 seconds.

does he qualify as a weeb if he's already Japanese?

The man is a Beacon for Nintendo. Who does not work for Nintendo.. Wait a minute.. Igarashi left Konami and we got Bloodstained... Its like the cool people leave the bog companies and get to make the really cool games we wanted to see. Like Gunvolt and all those 8 bit games as well. Before you ask, I never played Mighty Number nine so I can't really comment on it.

@@belmontzar Good. Mighty No 9 was a disaster.

yeah so many games unless you're a Final Fantasy without a 7 in the title :/

@@GameGodZERO So many other games, dingus. Not just Final Fantasy. (Edit: that was mean, sorry)

@@orion_shorts I mean lets look at all the other 3rd party characters in the DLC so far from big franchises. Joker brought stuff from P3 and P4 as well as P5 Hero had music from 4 DQ, some costumes not tied to a single game, and every hero not playable is in the FS Terry had 50 songs from across SNK's different games not just from Fatal Fury Steve while more minor still had music from the spin-offs so it wasn't just base Minecraft represented and then Final Fantasy gets nothing from anything other than 7, besides the Chocobo hat which isn't tied to a specific game. And I assume the Sephiroth spirit board will only have FF7 characters on it as well. They even finally implement a boss rush but have it locked to Sephiroth only.

@@GameGodZERO It's not Smash's fault: Square is VERY stingy with their IPs. Cloud almost didn't return for Ultimate and it was likely a pain getting Sephiroth and the other songs, much less songs from other FFs and remixing THOSE too. It's just far too much to ask for. Ungrateful FF fans I swear. Getting angry when a poster game is treated like a poster game.

@@hadouradiance3566 I'm just tired of FF7 being the only game ever recognized for anything. Being a fan of literally any other FF game is suffering Especially with how basically no iconic aspects of the franchise are represented in Smash in any form unlike basically every other 3rd party in the roster.

Not to mention the chats, lmao

Not gonna lie, I didn't know what giftsubs actually were till earlier today (I don't really use twitch that often) so I always thought they were a bad thing

True, I have a 6 months sub and I have never paid for one myself lol

Depends how many people are there though. His 250 gift subs after Sakurai showing off Sephiroth had over 30k viewers. I'm sure he had a bunch of subs in there, but man is it easy to dodge 'em.

Aww man, i should know this earlier

Hearing the music play when you choose the difficulty was amazing

The new music is actually breathtaking for me lul

It's not Aerith's theme, though.

max says later on that it was the new remix of the ff7 main theme

Does this mean I can’t use Sephiroth? ;x;

Adding a time limit would defintley be great to match the stage.

Oh damn the time limit would fit perfectly for that stage. Somebody needs to get on that pronto

fr Very Hard is easy for me, an ultimate mode could be the craziest challenge in the game

Sounds like the remake's final battle

Sounds awesome. IMO I thought it would’ve been awesome if this mode gave Sephiroth a health bar like the game’s main bosses. Also if very hard had shirtless Seph and at around 25% hp gave him a final smash, just to add that “oh sh-“ intense/final boss feeling. Still a great mode that I wish would sit around in the vault or something because it’s so beautiful to look at and fun to mess around on.

I mean, his most loved characters are from very popular franchises, so the chances were higher.

@@Kurisu545 true. I'm patiently waiting on Sora but my heart tells me Sephiroth was the highest negotiated character that Nintendo could afford.

@@MasutaMJ honestly i'd say it isn't even about what nintendo could afford. They could easily manage to put sora in just that they'd have to get permission from disney of all things.

@@jordanwalker3617 imagine that Disney copyright in the Smash credits. It might be disingenuous but if Goody and Donald can't cameo it won't be a total loss.

@@jordanwalker3617 if they put in sora, it would feel unfinished in a way since there's no way donald and goofy is also coming with him. since there's an established rule about characters originating in a game or something.

Same. He lost his shit in 2015 with Cloud but now...

He atleast has to have Min Min because the Challenge was only available to those who bought the Fighters Pass.

Huh. Apparently he doesn't....that's weird.

@@Segvent well IT was stated that the challenge was available if you bought fighter pass 2 OR sephiroth only So that may explain why he gets to play it

Always has been. After all, out of all KOF characters he is the one to get a music track AND mii costume

@@residentlando yeah I remember that Our edgy boy deserves all the care

@Nemesis King Negro Oh, I'm sorry. I just thought that since Max was knows a lot about competitive fighting games and stuff like that that I thought he was right.

@@Phantomistress363 whether or not he "mained" him or if there is evidence is not really important since Max was referring to the Terry direct where Sakurai said he loved Iori's design and thought his creator was a genius. I haven't watched that video since it came out a year ago to confirm if he said that Iori was his "main", but you can't blame Max for making that assumption.

Sakurai in Terry's presentation said that when he first saw Iori, he though that whoever disigned hiw was a Genius, so Sakurai really liked Iori's design.

Not as much as Sephiroth tho xD

Marlene!

@@goldlight1322 No its fine. Come, I'll show you to the door.

Yeah and you can tell how much Max loves it too. Not one of those people who says they love it and you can tell they dont mean it. With Max it's obvious from how much he loves to talk about ff7 that he's one of the real ones who truly loves it

@@darknesswave100 How can YOU tell they don't mean it? Don't be so sure about Max because you don't know him either. He didn't even play FF7 when it came out, he thought RPG's were "for nerds" at the time and eventually played it after it was already hailed by many as THE best game ever made. He says its his favorite game, but mentions nothing about any of the other FF's in the series (bar FF11). That is VERY peculiar and HIGHLY unusual... Especially when it's supposed to be his "all time favorite" game. I vaguely remember him stating he didn't start gaming really until the PS2 era. He's two years older than me, but I grew up playing all the games from the "golden era"... (these were all the RPG's on SNES and PS1 when RPG's were the biggest genre). You mean to tell me he missed all that? I've also noticed he misses details and tidbits even about FF7 that a die hard fan would know off top. Max doesn't even discuss the lore of FF7 at all... Just the surface level stuff. Don't be so quick to say others "don't mean it when they say they love it".... because you don't know them either. Max sheds a few tears in a viral FF7R reveal reaction video and all of the sudden he's the guru? Shit doesn't add up to be honest. Good guy, but I think he's a bit opportunistic when it comes to this FF7 thing. After all, people automatically think "Max" when FF7 comes up on social media now... Pretty shocking considering "RPG's are for nerds". And that statement is pretty consistent with him considering he has a gaming channel, but doesn't play any JRPG's.

Me too man.

Facts!!!!🤣🤣

On a side note, the announcer did voice work for TeamFourStar's FF7 Machinabridged as Rufus Shinra.

If the Doomslayer gets in the announcer has to name him with the most guttural voice ever.

Remind you that's Joker.

@@AnotherCamilo Also if Doomslayer gets in, his trailer needs to have At Doom's Gate (Remix) play as well as a shot of him and Isabelle at Tortimer Island.

Cease

that made me lol

And then sang it's the Circle of Life in front of her

Jaden Quest That sounds even darker tbh

Specifically, he ate them. Max's comments on Ridley are somewhat of a running gag from a couple of vids ago though.

Insert "but he only did it once" joke here

Yeah. Ridley and Sephiroth have literally killed people on screen. Ganondorf ain't even done that. At least I don't ever recall him doing so.

Exactly! I was like "did you even play FFVII ???" lol jk jk

I attribute it more to a slip. Max knows, lol

Sometimes fans really just fuck up at the most obvious shit lmaooo 😭

Cut him some slack guys lol he’s freaking out.

Then at the very end he does the same thing XD Seph doesn't even go flying he just falls to the ground after a quick slash, it was perfect.

Same. Too bad Square didn't give them the SNK treatment.

@@dnmstarsi I’m still happy with what we got. 9 new tracks, 4 of them being new arrangements coming from Square Enix is nothing to scoff at.

@@jsmaster4779 Same here but still could've been cool to get more but that's selfish of me and honestly, the fact that we got more and were told why music to include was a problem at times satisfies me and that's what matters. :)
