==Overview==
Every episode starts with the narrator shouting ''"How to Win at Super Smash Bros.!"'', followed by a curtain call where he lists the fighters that appear in the episode. Sometimes a fighter is left a mystery until the big reveal later in the video. A scenario then plays out, with the narrator providing commentary. These scenarios emphasize basic game mechanics that are useful when actually playing the game. Once the scenario ends, the video shifts to an instructional video where the narrator goes into further detail about the featured game mechanic. The video ends with a reminder that the game shown is available in stores and digital download, and to stay tuned for more episodes.

*Episode 9 suggests the player press R with certain characters (using {{SSB4|Toon Link}} as an example) to use their grab as a recovery. Without customized controls, this will actually result in an air dodge—the default input for a grab aerial is instead the ZR button.
