The CUT Taunts of Super Smash Bros Ultimate

Sorry the video is a bit late nerds… got a bit sick… enjoy regardless!!

The worst cut in my opinion is Sonic's "You're too slow!" Taunt. Yeah, the voice line was changed, but "Sonic Speed!" Isn't really a taunt, just him saying something. The "You're too slow!" taunt is actually a taunt, like peaches singing taunt.

You’re to slow is one of the most toxic things to hear in a brawl battle

Can't believe they cut your mother from this game. Truly heartbreaking

My favorite about Mario's previous neutral taunt is that if you played on special smash, made the characters big, give Mario a mushroom and perform the taunt, he'd get absolutely massive

"You're too slow" and "C'mon step it up" are PEAK disrespect and I'll forever be mad that they became so lame in Smash 4 onwards. Also I've seen people say that Charizard's up taunt is supposed to be the same pose as his Pokemon Yellow sprite, and I can kinda see it.

“In Smash Ultimate, every single character gets three taunts. Except Wario who gets four.” Snake: cries

I still don’t understand why CPUs don’t taunt anymore, especially Luigi who has the best taunt in the game

Mario's taunt where he takes his hat off (pre-ultimate) is most likely a reference to the New Super Mario Bros series, where Mario takes his hat off at the end of a level, before putting it back on and heading into the castle.

Old wolf voice line: Reeeoooooooowwwwwp 😈👺👺👹 New wolf voice line: auuugh 🤓🤓💅

12:10 Using this taunt when sending someone off the side blast zone activates the villain chemicals in my brain

"Every single character gets three unique taunts, except for Wario, he gets four." Dedede: Laughs in crouch animation

The Sonic section doesn't mention the very direct reasoning that he not only got a new voice actor (going from Jason Griffith to Roger Craig Smith) but also that Roger Craig Smith is a union voice actor and that Smash Bros. is a non-union product, with this leading to multiple characters from Kid Icarus being recast and Pit's voice staying the same but uncredited. The only option they had for Sonic was reusing old voice lines recorded for Sonic games, and since Sonic never said "You're too slow!" outside of Brawl, there was no way to keep it. A notable example of them reusing a voiceline is his Final Smash line being taken from the cutscene before the final boss in Sonic Generations.

16:25 Fun Fact: In case if you didn’t know, this taunt is based on Game & Watch Mario Bros which when this happens when if you get 8 bottles on the truck, it shows a little cutscene where Mario & Luigi are panting on the ground.

14:50 the reason for Cloud and Sephiroth not having dubbed voices is actually because of issues with their voice actors being union actors.

The shorter Kirby taunt also has the upside of allowing Kirby to get rid of his copied ability faster, so it actually has a Gameplay use!

5:53 “why I oughtta” type ahh wave

19:34 Bro I wish they brought “You’re too slow!” back!

Mario's old side taunt was based off the victory pose in the New Super Mario Bros Games. Surprised you didn't notice.

"You're too slow!" is such an iconic line. I can't believe they cut it.
