    It’s not a mii sword fighter. It’s a mii Swiss Army knife

    4:48 “He’s not vanishing. He’s just moving very fast. Try to feel out his energies.”
  • Good stuff. Engaging and informative, but sprinkled with little moments that made me chuckle.
  • @lennovativ
    Swordie compensates his lack of grounded speed, framedata, oos options with good disjointed shield pressure (airial & grounded), potent b&b's, excellent projectile zoning, good air speed, high dmg output and amazing killpower. He only really struggles against rushdown, but it's still manageable. I always said that people underestimate him a lot. A solid mid/high mid tier imo.

    NOTE: I was wrong about blade counter; as it turns out, the damage multiplier is 1.5x instead of 1.25x. Edit: Full list of pros and cons here: pastebin.com/AYtL6LHc
  • Nice! I use 2 swordfighters, Bonk and Conk. Bonk is 1122, Conk is 1121. I’m not too good at the game in general, but i really like mii swordfighter.

    Mii Swordfighter’s less viable specials are just actually decent specials that are overshadowed by better ones Change my mind

    Came here after Dante was announced as a Mii

    things you missed i'll point out since i know about them (not being mean or anything): -gale strike can't be canceled with another projectile and won't cancel projectiles that's both a + and a - -shuriken of lights is good for jab lock, mii swordfighter isn't very good at jab locking normally imo, so it's a + -blurring blade slows your fall, meaning you can start charging against the ledge, can give you free edgegard against some characters if you get the timing right, also mii swordfighter's best kill move, and so i would say it is viable, all of mii swordfight neutral specials are good honestly -airborn assault, i would say it is viable if you use it with tornado or suriken while it's of course not as good as chakram, it is a good recovery move which is never a bad thing -grab stab isn't viable, it's a worse version of ike's side special which is already concidered bad, if you don't charge it it doesn't kill, and if you charge it, your oponent mustbe stupid to get hit by such a predictable move -power trust is grab stab but better and that's it, good video, keep up the good work

    Quality. Loved this video for brawler as well. I'm getting into the miis and these videos are godlike.
  • I found Mii Swordie to be the best of the 3 Miis, and this kinda explains why. SO many good options to choose from.
  • @Nokyyyyy
    Now the stab gale allows you to grab the ledge after hitting someone, which makes it better and a really good recovery option
  • Worst Side special or not...I've somehow found myself comfortable using Gale Stab... Combining it with Gale Strike, Hero Spin, and Reversal Slash. For me it offers a quick strike for opponents setting up an edgeguard attack (and offers a second recovery if I'm off stage above the ledges). Not to mention I've used it to stop opponents trying to counterattack with strong Smash attacks...mostly because of it's huge striking speed and launch power as well. Yes I know it's the worst of the side specials, but it somehow ends up working for me (and sometimes killing me as well, but that's mostly because I'm an idiot. Hahaha).

    The video was insightful and very nicely edited, love the tone!
