Rush Hour Smash Highlights False and Nairo’s Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Skills
Rush Hour Smash, known for their Super Smash Bros. for Wii U basic tutorials (among other things), recently uploaded two quick videos which they’re calling “mixclips.” These shorts feature top level plays from popular players and come complete with the same high-quality editing that we’ve seen in their tutorial series.
The clips, which you’ll find embedded below, feature False taking control of Villager and Nairo commanding a particularly terrifying Robin. While one might expect a nair-heavy display from Nairo, it’s actually False’s Villager that steals the show in that department, with the first kill on the Villager clip involving a series of merciless cartwheels.
If you’ve got a couple of minutes to spare, you’ll not regret spending them with these videos.
