Getting EVERY HEAVY Into ELITE SMASH!

poppt1 takes on the challenge of pushing seven of the game's heaviest characters into Elite Smash. Incineroar, Charizard, Ganondorf, Donkey Kong, King Dedede, King K. Rool, and Bowser each represent the super heavyweight class, and getting all of them to Elite rank requires grinding through online matchmaking with characters that lack the speed and mobility of lighter fighters. The video documents the process of climbing the ranks with each character, showcasing how patient spacing and well-timed heavyweights attacks compensate for slower frame data. King Dedede and King K. Rool share similar heavyweight struggles—both rely on command grabs and ledge control to secure wins—while characters like Ganondorf demand precise positioning to land his signature kill moves. The montage format captures multiple matches across different opponents, revealing the matchup variety poppt1 faces while grinding. Whether through superior reach, raw damage output, or recovery management, each character eventually earns their place among the elite online ranks. This journey highlights how dedication and character knowledge can overcome the inherent disadvantages of playing top-tier heavyweights in competitive online play.
