Kirby vs King Dedede is a match-up that always thrills. The only thing is the result is always the same: Kirby smash Dedede. They’ve tried cage matching, gourmet racing, star stacking, air riding, pinballing, dream coursing, flagballing, smash brawling, sword sparring, quick drawing, and the winner never changes. Today is different: King Dedede is about to send this pink puffball to Kirby dreamland in a game of chess!
You heard that right; Kirbs will feel the roar of Dedede at the chess board (and we obviously mean a metaphorical roar… top chess isn’t terribly boisterous at the best of times). Although… sure, the fluffy vacuum cleaner doesn’t play chess most weekends, but there is still a chance he could get the victory. I guess you’re just going to have to watch the video to find out.

King DEDEDE that one tryhard sweater on every LAN-Party that one really likes, but he is so strong that he gets invited anyway. Probally an ELO of over 2000.🤣😂😅
Also, by teaching Kirby how to play chess, Dedede has truly proven that he's a champion this time around.
I love the rat fink reference at 0:16
This was adorable 🥰🥰🥰
1:20 waddle dee’s got a point
4:38 okay, that's really cute, i love it
It’s very rare for a mashed video where the characters have their normal personality
I dont think y'all should be out here teaching kirby chess and not checkers things could get way to dangerous if he put actual thoughts into his plans
I love this
I know one competion that will make king Dede happy and win HEIGHT DIFFERENT
The fact that Dedede maintains his composure after losing the practice round up until he realizes Kirby thinks he actually won is surprisingly in-character for Dedede.
GOD DAMMIT! I SHOULD HAVE WON THAT!
My favorite animation of you is pretty cool
What a great video
So well done lol. I was hoping it would have kept going!!
OMG now I realized this entire short is a callback to Planet Robobot's intro cutscene!!!
Can we just appreciate how good of a friend Bandana Dee is to both of them?
This was great
Why is this so perfect?
SEIZE oh whatever I need a bath
now i need to see meta knight and dedede play chess
I love when it's so obvious Kirby is just a kid
I live for melty Kirby
I tried to borrow "Supporting Your Sworn Partner's Hair-Brained Schemes" from the library, but they said the waiting list is like 30 years long.
Painter Seap finally acknowledged Adeleine I think we can only go downwards in quality from here
1:23 he is such a good boy.
…i wonder if mario and luigi are watching from the audience
Edit: I see a tooadie
This is actually amazing, bring seap to work on more of these in the future, cuz he's got the characters figured out excellently.👍
Sometimes I forget this channel also makes more lighthearted cartoons
i love how kirby said “I WIN!”
5:33 Really reminds me of when Mojo Jojo was about to blow his lid that one time, only for him to stop mid-sentence and just give up completely
I can’t believe Kirby just can’t let go of this grudge.
Why am I getting death note vibes?
this is so canon i love it
At the end of the day king dedede is a good guy
4:41 Gotta love Magolor with those candied gem apples! Never stop selling out, Maggy
Lmaooo Meta Knight reading "supporting your sworn partner's hair-brained schemes"
