Snake's Counter Picks

You can drop a C-4 in mid-air and immediately detonate it to propel yourself upwards and get your Cypher Up-B back. Use it when really low offstage to recover (almost) infinitely!

At 160% Down throw an enemy and immediately do uptilt. It's a kill confirm on the whole cast.

Grenades explode instantly when an opponents attack hits it. Use it to your advantage when getting juggled!

Snake's C-4 can be hard to keep track of, so it has less of a psychological effect than Link's Remote Bomb. The element of surprise is greater, though.

Snake does terrible against reflectors/absorbers. This means Ness, Lucas, & Mr.G&W are among his worst match ups by far. Any attack with an explosion is nullified entirely against those 3.

Killer queen has already touched that part of the stage.

Vs Luigi You can Damage yourself to 25% and this will prevent him from doing 0-death. Try to have a Grenade on You whenever Luigi approaches. Leave C4 near edge to force rolls or jump recovery.

The more damage an opponent takes the more time it takes for them to mash out of grabs. So use your down grab after rattling the opposite player with nairs and up tilts and Distance weapons!

To recover offstage you can recover as a mixup with Grenade. Lob, Jump, ariel atk, then wait. You can also catch with Shield but it's risky. Lob, cypher, Ariel atk, explode.

Most people don't think Snake as a Grappler archetype. But I would argue he is. It is a great mix up or even go to strategy. Check out 'My Smash Corner" video on Youtube 'Optimizing Snake's Down Throw

Against absorbs and reflectors leave C4 placed on the ground and detonate when needed. Otherwise use charged Upsmash and Grenades as bait. Dtilt and Jab is your main source of damage in these Matchups

Taking out a grenade and shielding/dodging immediately will drop the grenade, you can spam grenades this way. If you drop a grenade and shield to bait the enemy, the grenade will interrupt any combo

When landing try b-reversing and wavebouncing. You can use a fast fall neutral air dodge as a mix up once you have conditioned your opponent to expect a b-reverse or wavebounce

Snake has one of the best defensive options and can potentially kill you without physically attacking you. Keep watch of your C4 at all times. Grenades are a useful option.

*** Clapp Him To Outer Heaven, it always works.

You csn drop a c4 midair right under you to stop your opponent to hit you when you land.

F-air can be a really satisfying spike but try to only use it in the perfect positioning or it can completely reverse advantage. Better to focus on Ledgetrapping with grenades or Nikita to edgeguard.

For Snake try to keep it long distance with the enemy, so use your Nikita and cook frag grenades at the enemy. If they close the distance on you, use your roll attacks and then follow up with a mortar

Upthrow uptilt works early, and if enemy doesn't react in time, all Aerials without fair are somewhat reliable. Windy hills stage can hide dropped c4 sometimes lol. Shield after c4 to somewhat hide it

Snake's up smash is arguably one of the best in the game. If you get someone on the edge, you can continually fire it over and over, sometimes you can even get 5,6,7,8,9 or even 10 hits in a row.

just spam projectiles ***** it works

down throw -> buffered up-tilt, use this combo to either rack up damage or kill confirm easily off a grab at around only 110%.

raza **** you for being carried by this piece of **** character

Bring back Ally to the scene. MVD? More like MVFree. Shogun? Not quite there yet. Salem? His Hero is more smoothin

Utilt is broken as ****. MVD 3-0d Light only using Utilt. 9 stocks with just utilt. Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Grenade Util

Vs G&W let him get Oil spill. Cus then he HAS TO approach to kill and you can just projectile camp. Be aware of Oil spill hotboxes though. C4 Grenades and Dair will be main damage in this matchup.

when the opponent has 160% try to use your down grab and up tilt (when it has 170% and it is on the ground it is a confirm)

I'm just here to say that all snake mains are primitive troglodyte smooth-brains.
