Ap, okay. Guess I'm a tempus fugit now

Some very closely tied people in the Punch Time Explosions know about attack turnarounds! But did you know you can also do this with aerials!? Most aerials are so fast that it'd be hard to notice!

EpicStyle is too goated

I saw AsumSaus's one weird thing about every character in Melee and it reminded me of a google doc I made for the same thing but in PTE. I updated it a little but here is the link if you wanna see. This was indeed for a video series which became my characters in PTE are awesome video

How does Port priority work in Punch Time Explosion?

Unlike some Smash bros games, two characters grabbing at the same time will just result in clanking! However, there are still certain interactions that are determined by Port priority.

The most important is collecting cubes. If two players collect a cube at the same time, then by default the player with the highest port (player 1) will collect the cube!

So player 1 gets priority huh? Well that can be a double edged sword! When multiple players die at the same time, the highest port will die first! You want a first come first serve basis? Well there ya go ya punk wahahahahah

Aku really is just an overtuned Jigglypuff. He has the back air but like 3 times longer, the super duper strong attack you use if the opponent is too close (granted this is a stretch comparison), the multiple jumps and absurd aerial control, a rising pound but the size of a full recovery.

And he isn't even a definitive best character. This game is so ridiculous I love it.

Well I might actually try to play Multiversus now that Jack is in just to see the similarities and differences between him in Multiversus and Punch Time explosion

Only in Punch Time Explosion, will your move launch further at 170% compared to 195%.

Why do characters in Punch Time Explosion survive for so long?

Well to start, the developers implemented an intentional mechanic known as breakout! Using an aerial or jump is equivalent to using Game and watch bucket in brawl to get rid of all launch momentum!
With the addition of the player's jumps resetting everytime they get hit, it only adds fuel to the survivability fire! Plus killing is a lot more centralized on specific moves or PTE and new players aren't typically aware of these moves and struggle on killing in this game making it even more of a hassle!

To compensate for this, PTE is a much faster paced game and most characters can input insane amounts of damage in a short amount of time. I've always said that dividing the PTE %s by 2 is a great way to convert it to its equivalent in smash bros.

Typical kill percents are 120~200 but many of the lower tiered characters take forever to kill reaching ridiculous numbers like 250 or even 300. These characters rely almost entirely on using their PTE to kill. (So please don't disable PTE in competitive play)

With so many new characters and unlockables in a re-release and an extremely small dev time, what better what to implement them in than using an in-game store!

In Punch Time Explosion XL with the addition of new characters, stages, and skins came the in game store which was a cheap and quick way to easily implement characters without putting a bunch of complex winning or story mode conditions in the mix!

What other platform fighters have done this? I'm genuinely curious if PTE is the only one

Does Monke have potential??!?!!!

Why is Hoss Delgado... So bad?

He is one of the slowest characters in the game who makes up for good damage power! Is he going to be out damaging Vilgax? Nope. Is he going to be out speeding Vilgax? Nope. Hell, his ranged options aren't as good either. But one thing going for him is his stalling ability I've shown off previously and his really cool up special that shoots 8 projectile shurikens in 8 different directions which can sometimes be chained together to juggle airborne foes!

However, Hoss Delgado has notably weak knockback power and is very hard to secure kills with. His earliest kill move is likely up air which comes out slow. He also typically kills with up special as well. His PTE is okay but can be inconsistent at times. This is actually the main way he typically kills other than taking advantage of characters with poor recoveries. With so many unbearable flaws it's no wonder he ranks so low on many tier lists.

Vex Kasrani used this character once! Then he quickly stopped in favor of K'nuckles lmao

Lets talk Schnitzel in Punch Time Explosion, whose name is mispelled in the game (it's supposed to be Shnitzel)! There's quite a bit!

He's an assist that damages ANYBODY who attacks him, including the player that summoned him. That's kind of all he does but the most interesting piece about him is the fact that he was going to be playable! He has what seems to be incomplete character data lurking within the files (no menu animation file, colors, or costume. moveset data is low in data amount compared to other characters, about half) as well as dev confirmation that he was planned. There's even an announcer voice line where he says "Shnitzel!" and he has dialogue voice lines for to cycle through in the story mode as well!

Upon inspection of the files he does have, we've been able to deduce that he has "all moves" available except a Punch Time Explosion and that for his neutral special something can be charged! Was it a punch? A baguette projectile which is seen in the final game in the form of his synergy attack with Yen? The world will never know until some modder helps us out and uncovers the truth... about Schnitzel. Radda radda radda

Mastering Punch Time Explosion movement is insane

Aku didn't realize the brothers came armed and ready!

Time for player appreciation Saturday!

VilgaxMaster69 is the best Vilgax and one of the strongest players in Punch Time Explosion! He's been my main training partner since 2017 and is probably the only reason either of us are as good as we are right now! Thanks for playing Punch Time Explosion VilgaxMaster69!

Coco is a wild card of an assist! A character that spawns item capsules around the stage, of which nearly anything could appear... especially the mines that deal 50% and basically always kill. Or the frog staff that changes characters into a frog and make them susceptible to killing due to their lack of ability to breakout and extremely low weight

Can you imagine if Peach could float forever? (Dexter can do this too)

Am I allowed to post PTE tournament listings/events/weeklies/mini/whatever you guys call it here

One of the first VODs ever for Punch Time Explosion was the untitled Punch Time Explosion tournament in New York where Keychain would literally claim the tournament, renaming the whole tournament after him! Keychain would show great usage of Dexter's PTE, as well as using a varied moveset not particularly spamming, and breaking the common conception of Aku being too OP! Hope tô see more from Keychain eventually 🥹

Now you're a true Toiletnator main

In Punch Time Explosion, Him is infamous for having the worst PTEs in the game. He has a mechanic where his PTE changes based on the stage and they're BOTH the worst!?? Both of them have notorious startup and leave him open for attack after he finishes. Him is better off not using his PTE at all.

Cut characters from Punch Time Explosion guide! These are all characters believed to be cut from the game roster as a playable character and how likely it was true!

Confirmed (by Phil Bolus): Schnitzel, Mandark, Gwen (all have character data in the game.)

Confirmed but have no character data: Cheese, Fred Fred burger

Weird/Mythical (characters have a case that leads to "maybe they were playable at one point"): Wilt, Remote Control

Maybe not: Stickybeard

In the end, Phil Bolus has said they tried to make as many assists into characters as they could. Since they couldn't finish all of them it was a great way to have the characters in the game at least in some form!

Want some cursed knowledge?
One of my favorite tournaments for Cartoon Network Punch Time Explosion was the Intergalactic Punch Time Explosion League, an Earth monthly supermajor where all the players from around the multi-galaxy come to play Punch Time Explosion competitively! Andromeda Galaxy is no joke and houses some of the strongest players!

a crabsolute legend right here

Punch Time Explosion is a glitchy steam punk duct tape machine as I like to say and there's a chance that when you start a match your character will have glitched physics! This ranges from sinking through the floor, to flying way up off stage, to having your buttons not work except only when the pause menu is opened.

That's why when before starting a local or in person tournament it's important to realize when these glitches happen and have a proper reset of the game (if desired which is probably all the time) to create some consistency!

Here's a full list of variants right here:

Ever had your sword count as a hurt box?

Grim is a character with many strong normals, swinging his scythe with range akin to Marth!

However he has a very powerful attack with crazy range his side b! In order to compensate the devs did something totally on purpose and intentional and made it so that his scythe would count as a hurt box on this move specifically! The balancing creativity of these guys is just phenomenal!

As a Billy and Mandy main there's nothing more annoying than the fact your own character's rolling, spot dodge and air dodge literally have no invulnerability frames

A platform fighter first!

Vilgax's neutral b laser deals damage depending on how laggy the game is! Normally it deals 6.667% but under heavy lag situations such as Flapjack 1 or in 1080p resolution, it will deal 13%!

So saying "I lost because it wasn't lagging enough" is totally something someone could say!

Random PTE-smash comparisons with Ama:

Brawl Meta Knight does three uairs in a short hop and gives like 18% damage!
K'nuckles does two fairs in a short hop and gives 24% damage!

Both are broken!

Aku is overrated. The real broken mess is Vilgax. Dude single handedly bans stages just because him specifically would be too strong. Imagine a character in smash had the ability to just delete two stocks after hitting you enough times on any stage with a lower than normal vertical blastline.
(Jack 2 should be banned)

Why does Captain Planet kill at 250%

Hellooooo
Who wants to talk about Punch Time Explosion and how awesome it is?!
Anyone? Hello? Is anyone there? Uuuhuuuhuuhuuuu

Thanks for follow!

Thanks for the follow!
